Hint: while you're bounty hunting remember to bring limpets with you and collect everything valuable the ships leave behind after they explode. You'll be glad you did once you start engineering grind.
Great advice! I've been hauling spoiled rich tourists and celebutantes around, and earned enough to buy a fully-stocked Alliance Chief. I learned quickly that standard combat is a sinkhole, so I was looking for a quick primer on bounty hunting. This is right up my ally. Thanks for the video!
If you have some in game friends with an online schedule similar to your own, you can take Wing massacre missions and make some SERIOUS cash in a fairly short amount of time.
Another good tip is if you see your target being shot at immediately pull out your lasers (hitscan) and tag them once so they turn red. Once they’re red, scan them with the KWS as now even if you don’t get the bonus you still have something out of that fight!
I have been a bounty hunter since I started playing the game. Killing pirates with my stock Sidewinder, then with an Adder, then with a Viper mk3. Then I upgraded to a Vulture and currently I'm using an Alliance Chieftain. Only recently have I started farming bounties at resource extraction sites and business is boomin' like never before. I feel like I was born to do this
Playing this on Xbox after my Mac decided to go Catalina and stop playing elite dangerous years ago. So pleased I could take my beginning ship and go straight to a resource extraction point and start leeching huge sums of bounty money while the police do the bulk of the fighting and take Agro when I start biting off more than I can chew. _"Look at me mom, I'm helping!"_
Started 3 days ago this will be very useful for me. got a viper and starting to outfit it, at the moment I'm using mass courier missions to get money to arm it up honestly thinking to use fixed weapons as I am pretty good at aiming and gimbles I find are ok but I want more of a challenge "Edit" this is my 4th day playing. Arrived at nanobozho and went and did this for maybe 10 minutes with a viper mk 3 that I have prob spent around 200k credit on and got 500k in the ten minutes I did this so thank for the tips, also not using fixed weapons as i' trying to learn and get used to flight assist off.
Here is my setup for an anaconda: First slot is a beam laser, 2-6 are multicannons and the other 2 are beams, all gimballed Military grade composites, tier A modules for everything, t7 bi-weave with a 6A power cell and t6 hangar. 3 module reinforcements, rest are hull. You can also stick a repair limpet controller plus a small cargo bay to synth limpets on the go and repair your ship in-between engagements
I didn't start bounty hunting till I got a alliance chieftain. It has sufficiently good hard points but you must have enough credit to purchase it and outfit it. Once you have it outfitted you have to do a lot of resource gathering to beef it up. On my chieftain I can almost continuously fire without having to pause. My Krait Mark II is even more suitably outfitted for combat but I do enjoy my alliance chieftain because it has more mobility. The alliance chieftain turns so smooth and rapid it can get a little scary until you get used to it. But remember you should always upgrade your power distributor your engines. Remember by upgrading your distributor and engines you will run cooler allowing for longer fire time on your target. And by upgrading your lasers and guns or lazer cannons you allow yourself greater firepower. I've actually been told by three man wings to join them or leave the area because I'm taking too many kills from them.
you can try with only 2 medium burst laser. They can strip a sidewinder shields in less than 10 flat. I have a fer-de-lance named THE FACE MELTER. with 2 medium gimbled burst lasers, 2 medium gimbled multi-cannons and 1 huge gimbled multi-cannon. It can destroy a sidewinder in seconds.
6:34 Turning on your NV would help a lot there… not to mention putting 4 pips to ENG to turn quick, get on his back then place your pips elsewhere. I notice when he is facing you that you didn’t put pips to SYS which would save you most likely if he were to open up on you.
damn ive been using the viper mk3, i seem to be doing pretty good with it. I used to have the eagle, and its also really good, it has great maneuverability so you can just use fixed lasers, i even used a fixed railgun with it
How do you find the cargo after dropped? I hear the comment of cargo released. (I'm only 2 days in an excuse my newbness). And you need limpets to pick it up as well?
@@tylerjames1963 I’m pretty new too, but I believe how it works is: after you destroy the enemy ship, the explosion will produce a mix of materials that can be scooped with your cargo scoop, I honestly don’t know if the materials take up cargo space or not, they don’t seem to 🤔
@@tylerjames1963 also you can see the materials that drop on your radar directly in front of you in cockpit. They are represented as little squares I believe
missions are good if you want to help factions influence the system or change the economy or ruin some other faction day , missions are missions , they are not jobs they are tasks for factions , they are mainly political power plays
Papin city is a good place to start with bounty hunting. Good ship yard and sells everything you need. Not to mention right next to high res extraction sites.
Would the Vulture be a good step up? I just got back into playing after about 4 years.. I'm a bit rusty, but I remember flying the Vulture for a long time before getting into a fer de lance
The vulture is an excellent ship! Maneuverable, packs a good punch, can definitely take a hit, it's just that the biggest downside is the smaller power plant. I'd recommend engineering your power plant and rolling into a RES site with two large thermals. But for Resource Extraction Sites where you will most likely have backup in the form of System security, you'll be fine as long as you don't foolhardily engage anything too powerful alone.
I got the viper MK3 instead since I couldn't get an imperial eagle in the starting zone. Used fix weapons, 2 pulse lasers and 2 multicanons, a bit then realized the cops do much more damage than me anyway so switched to 4 gimballed pulse lasers. After all, my job is just to touch the target as close to death as possible for the bounty. Been doing it in Dromi system. I blitz their shields and the cops shred the target while I just try to hit it close enough to the time it dies
As a Fairly new Trader with Merchant Rank in a Type-6 I've been avoiding Combat and focusing Solely on Defense like mine launchers and countermeasures just so I can possibly escape, I don't mind the risk as it's common for cargo vessels to be targeted but that's just something Everyone's gotta deal with
I've been making a killing with my hauler using that website that tells you good routes to take and what to sell and buy. I'm about to carry around 100 tons worth and have been able to hyper jump just 1 system and profit up to or over 1,000,000 in 1 round trip!
Bro i litterally just created a new character, spawned in did the basic tutorial and was sent here on a courier mission. What are the odds. And yes its a great system for ships and bounty hunting
Be sure to check if your target is in a team. You don't want another dude or two coming out of the woodwork nipping at you the whole time while you're fighting and wondering why your shields are suddenly gone.
When it comes to Vipers, always go with the Mk 3, never the Mk 4. The 4 trades a lot of speed and maneuverability for a bit more armor. It's not the worst ship, but it definitely isn't an improvement on the 3 and many agree on that fact. The Viper Mk 3 is an all around great ship, though if you really have the money, you can LOAD up a Cobra 3 with some great bounty hunting stuff and tons of hull reinforcements. This is what the wiki says about the Viper mk 3 verses the Cobra mk 3: "compared to the multi-role Cobra MkIII, it has the same weapons capacity, slightly stronger shields per shield class, slightly weaker hull, marginally slower turn rate, much faster strafe speed, faster speed under normal thrust and slower speed under boost". Basically I'd just go for the Cobra if you can afford it, but if not the Viper Mk 3 is probably the most stable option for first time RES fliers. Remember to never solo engage, take time to recharge your shields and always scan with the Kill Warrant Scanner!
@@Rob_IE The Viper MK3 is one of the greatest ships for bounty hunting. It´s the fastet ship in the game and with pulse lasers and multicannons and using the the internal target system it blows every ship out of the sky. Love it for bounty hunting and it has definately more bang and and speed than the eagle.
@@BalschoiwThat's definitely true, though I think people keep forgetting that I'm not recommending the eagle ONLY for RES. This video was simply for people who wanted to buy the first combat ship they could afford and immediately begin making money in it.
Just to note haz sites have no authority backup so head to high sites or even practice at low sites to build up your skills. I have a fully engineered and kitted out corvette which I bought though money made though bounty hunting. When you can afford it get a fer de lance great little anaconda killer
Im trying to unlock engineers and I need to get bounty vouchers worth 100k or more, and then I found this video. Heres the funny part, Nanabozho is my home system! What a coincidence!
The fer de lance is a very good ship. It has decent firepower but that's not the reason why people prefer it. It has great mobility that's its advantage over those ships that have greater fire power turning to use its mobility is its greatest asset but you will have to pound and pound on your adversaries destroy them. You may not find the ship to your liking at the beginning but practice practice so that you may learn to turn and fire turn and fire and to keep to the rear of the ship that you're trying to destroy keeping behind the ship is the best place at least amount of hits on you Shields will prevent your destruction.
It should be in stations with the "Outfitting" ability. The Kill Warrant Scanner will be under "Utilities", though you may need to use third party websites to see where the nearest station that has one is. If all else fails, Nanabozho will always have some from what I've found.
I fly a cobra now with 2 medium turret pulse lasers and 2 small fixed long range multicannons. What would be a good ship to step up to next and keeping around the same speed and maneuverability?? I'm tired of having to wait for the space cops to help me take down larger ships.
Good question! The Kill Warrant scanner is a Utility item that you set on your fire groups, similar to your other weapons. Just set the Kill Warrant scanner on a fire group, and when on that fire group hold down the button you assigned. When targeting another ship, hold the button down until the scan bar is filled up, and the scan is completed. Afterwards you can freely engage and destroy your target knowing you'll get the full bounty.
@@Rob_IE wait, I assigned the kill warrant to a fire group but never fired it, i thought that it scanned ships for bounties automatically when targeting a ship
@@JW-fm2cy It does not scan automatically. Each ship is assigned a value But you can get more money per kill by using a scanner. Equipping a Kill Warrant Scanner to your utilities and putting it in a fire group allows you to "fire" it. Holding the button down will slowly fill up the scan meter at the bottom until finally it will say "Scan Complete". You will then get extra money for other bounties that may be placed on the ship that you would not have known about without the scanner.
:)) nah eagles die easy as omg. vulture is the way to go or black diamond scout, worth the wait for the money, also gimballed multi canons are usefull if you stay in same system :D easy for tagging spray and pray easy for beginners but must keep an eye on ammo just in case. great tutorial and good advice for a beginer defo a like keep it up !
Eagles die easy if you're bravado and try to tank better ships. In general this was a video about how to do a RES with (as I mentioned in the video) the first purchasable combat ship. It shouldn't be too difficult to do this in an eagle, and since bounty hunting now gives more money, you should be able to upgrade to a Cobra, Vulture or even an FDL over a much shorter time.
Bounty hunting is easy... NPC killing is easy... but it does not pay well.. mining does not even pay well.. they were supposed to fix it.. make bounty hunting pay much better and even out Mining.. but Mining just takes a lot of time and effort for very little pay today. Bounty hunting is fun.. I love it.. but it takes time.. and its hit and miss on whether its worth it... you can make 20 maybe 30 mil in an hour if you are lucky.. you have to run into a LOT of wanted guys worth a lot of money.... If you have a very good ship and you are good at it.. you go the the Haz Res and hit up ever NPC wanted Anaconda you can find.. Anacondas are usually harder to kill but they seem to be higher pay. Or hit up a bunch of ELITE NPC.. they take longer..the fights can seem to just last forever... they can do a lot of damage.. they use missiles.. etc.. so by the time your finished you have to go to a station and get repairs a lot. no matter what.. you are NOT making a lot of Creds. IF you want to make Creds in this game.. I do Robigo runs with my Anaconda and make easy 100 mil an hour.. every hour.. no hit and miss.
Which part of "Beginner's Guide" eluded you, Mr. Frank 'I switch to my Anaconda' Sawyer? See kids? You don't need much of a brain to earn the credits to get an Anaconda. If Frank can do it, you can too!
Hint: while you're bounty hunting remember to bring limpets with you and collect everything valuable the ships leave behind after they explode.
You'll be glad you did once you start engineering grind.
"I don't know how to end the video. I don't have an outro." *does full combat run as a demonstration instead*
This Is The Way
What if you're so bad that a Sidewinder sends you back to rebuy your Clipper? Asking for a friend.
happened to me once, went afk at a haz res site
Not that bad, but I'm bad enough an Adder make me rebuy an Asp Ex
decked out a python and realized i couldn’t fly for shit. o7
A diamond back explorer almost killed me when I was in a decently upgraded mamba

I wish I would have thought of this before I first started idk how many bounties I missed trying to get the KWS to finish before engaging
If you tag m you get the bonus so its a waste of time
Just don't accidently tag a sys vessel
This is what I needed. Thank you for not making it sound overly complicated and confusing
