Elite:Dangerous. Krait Mk II vs Federal Assault Ship
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 вер 2024
- Krait has no military compartments, sorry, my bad :/ Still it has enough internals to cover most needs.
Let's compare Krait Mk II with Federal Assault ship - core and optional internals, hardpoints and their placement, prices, integrity, shields and more.

I love people flying Kraits, because I use PA's they're the best weapon in game, and Krait has a large hit box due to being so wide, so I find it more easy to hit a Krait more times than say, a FAS.
Good update, thanks
Shopping for a good all around ship with a little more on the bounty hunting side. This helps. I'm torn between the FDL, Python, krait, and FAS. With what I see, would fit my style better. Thanks for the vid CMDR.
I love the FAS handling & aesthetics, but the shields and large hardpoint placement kinda suck.
I'd rather have the large ones at the bottom with one medium at the top & bottom instead.
Frontier needs to make armor tanking and / or stealth more viable for PvE.
Just biweave it with high resistances and skunk the fuck out of armor/armor resistances... I can use my fas to boop things to death most times because throwing the brick works just as well as shooting with its guns.
I am pretty sure there are no military module slots on the krait
yeah, sorry for that....rrrrr ;/
I assume you were thinking of the Challenger at the time.
damn, you got me ;) that's exactly what happened because i am now preparing krait vs challenger video and messed up lil..
Shouldn't the vs be made between Krait and Federal Gunship?
i thought the same.
Krait is placed between gunship and python, in price and equip.
funny, krait can be placed wherever players will place it for themselves. vs should be made between all ships, or you think krait will never fight vultures, fdl and even type 9s or that player will never have choice between krait or challenger etc.? and krait is very similar in combat compared to fas.
yes it shoud and FAS shoud be compared with alliance chieftain
Wow. Why you keep comments open if you are this defensive? My comment comes simply because of operational capabilities of both ships. The FGS is closer to the krait than the FAS. Anyway, I am out.
because comments sometimes give good ideas. which operational capabilities exactly make gunship closer to krait than fas?
Hello there Kornelius , I wanted to thank you for the very informative and comparative videos . Keep them coming! Btw a little question : I'm using a similar weapons configuration on my Krait (I noticed you use it on your good Python too) Loving the Rail Guns . Only I'm using three large BL's (grade 3eng + Thermal shock) instead of MC's . I like to tinker and try different configurations , would you suggest MC's in the L slots and which experimental effects would you feel to suggest ?
well, for MC it is quite easy choice usually - one corrosive is a must have and rest incendiary, unless you are fighting only silent runners then one should be emissive.
Thank you very much , I think I have like two MC's with incendiary rounds and surely one with corrosive shells .I can easily try your configuration . See you in the void CMDR! o/
check my annihilator corvette loadout - full load of incendiary multis, it is still viable :)
I saw that beauty, that buid convinced me to sell the Cuttter and buy the Corvette ! (And to think I use Python/Krait/Asp 90% of time ingame) I tried also incendiary MC turrets but … they're out of ammo in NO time :P
for turrets i use only lasers, try krait with burst lasers and inertial se ;) very much fun
Hey Kornelius. In your opinion, wich one of the federal ships, with the exception of the corvette, excels at dog fight, best pve?
for me it is definitely fas, pvp, pve, it is most enjoyable ship for combat from federal ships. but that doesn't mean everyone feels same :)
Kornelius Briedis thanks. I've been holding myself from buying one of them, afraid of picking one that wont feel good while handling it, and credits scarcity. Guess i'll try the FAS then.
oh, fas handles like a charm, not as good as vulture but close enough for extra dps
How good is the krait as a pure silent running ship? The FAS was one of the best silent running ships in the game back when I played.
if you ask me i would avoid flying krait without shields, the cockpit is made from paper. unless you can keep your ships nose almost always away from enemy fire then fas is probably the best silent runner i tried, but then i didn't do much silent run combat, i just know that many pvp players use fas for silent runners.
Ugh... Although I like the handling of the FAS it overheats very quickly. If the FDS wouldn't be that slow and heavy I'd clearly prefer it over the FAS. The hardpoint placement is great, too.
This comparison doesn't make sense only BC each ship have a diferent combat role. if you try to fly a FAS like you fly a Krait, you'll be very disapointed, or "lacking". But in other hand, if you fly a Python the same as you fly the Krait you'll learn that they both are alike, but slightly diferient (as turning rate, weapon placements, overal shape...)
If you have compared they both (Krait/FAS) but giving more focus on their "optimal combat behavior" (or preferred tactics) you'll have a better VS video. IMHO i think that if the Krait can fix target, it can pack a punch. and a big one... maybe even a chuck noris kick... but this is IF IT FIXES AT TARGET! considering that the FAS preferred tactics is to captalise in its better manouverability to mantain ToT the same time avoiding being on enemy target, the question here are not about the ship, but the combat expertise of the pilot... BC FAS superiority is harder to mantain, as for the Krait you just need to focus target for so long. wich is easier to do, just FA of and turn to face your oponent (of course i'm oversimplifying here but i hope you get the meaning)
As for your reply on another comment down there about sidies, courriers and T9 harassing condas and vettes, this is much due to discrepansies in Engineering or pilot skills. Also i personaly don't count this things because they are Break The Meta behavior. sure they exist, but these data are outliers... you cant count them in the main probability study.
Anyhow: I like the idea of comparing very diferent ships, but i felt that you just compared spreadsheets values here... this isn't EVE Onlyne, for god's, sake!! (hahahaha joking).
Take this as constructive criticism.
TL;DR: I'am not saying this video sucks or something like that, but you just compare values of two very diferent ships that behave VERY diferent from one to the other and thats it.
This comparison FOR ME makes no sense. Its like comparing a falcon to a halk considering their masses, sizes, claws and beaks just because they both flyes and they both are "birds". Their hunting behavior are TOTALY diferent. You need to consider that when comparing such things
so you say i can't compare halk with falcon judging on their size, claws and acceleration/deceleration and skin thickness? or can't compare different planes and cars? that makes no sense to me ;) well, i got all info for myself from that video and that was same how i felt flying those ships so for me this video was useful, i don't do "feeling" videos exactly because you as commander must know what play style fits your better, which weapons fit your play style and what are your goals, i just give you data and that's up to you what to do with it if anything at all. if i start comparing ships regarding my play style and and my feelings that would stop making sense to me.
You sure can compare, say, a minivan with a Lamborghini... They both can transport people and things, they both are cars... But what is the point? Stats wise lambo whins... But try to go on family vacation with a lambo... You need to say that at least when you compare the two. I never said about the "feel of the ship".
Also, if you are happy with your video and your method, I'm not holding you back. Just doesnt consider the feedback at all and thats it :D
Cheers
i can compare easily, lambo is good for 1-2 persons with very little luggage on very good road outside city and if you can afford it, if you go offroad, heavy traffic in city or need transporting stuff or have more than 2 passengers then forget about lambo. not that i care, i mean if you don't see sense then don't waste your time on my crappy videos, if you have any ideas feel free to share, but i am not trying to make videos that make sense to everyone as it is impossible and useless waste of my time.
What hard points should I be running for the krait for general bounty hunting and Pvp?
pvp plasma, rails or frags, multis, cannons, for pve whatever you want it doesn't matter, all that works on python work on krait even better, all lasers, multis, plasmas, try shredder loadout for some fun.
Kornelius Briedis thanks dude you earned a sub
Is there a chieftain vs fas video?
not yet but i don't see a reason why it is so :)
Gunship has nothing to do with the krait. It's in a class of its own. I ran into a krait recently in my fragdelance . Tore his A## apart quick. You would think it would be similar to fighting a fas , but no , not even. Theyre two different breeds.
that's the fun part - every ship is special if you outfit it specifically and every ship is in same class as soon as you engage, i mean i am very interested to compare most ships because you can pretty much see all small differences that in the end make up your mind, you are the one who choose which ship fits your play style better, i know what fits my but that means nothing if you play differently.
yeah recently I discovered a online game called eve and I seen their ships that they fly , I almost bet they have none of the personality attributes like ED's ships have , the way they look. I could be wrong
Krait mk2 < FAS
i own both. altho i own 5 Assault ships.. the hardpoints may do more DPS than the FAS, but with the FAS is more ideal for ramming.
if you got a wingmate with a healing beam it becomes a shitshow.
@@sheahogge534 i may be a bit biased
Miss you cmdr... (though I have not logged in for weeks now)
Thanks, nothing to do there ;/ Dual universe and starbase should be released somewhere in near future, also I am leaning towards amazons new world, looks good and interesting, if I manage to find a like minded group ;)
Krait = Crate
and in uk it's/krʌɪt/
goofy comparison a decked out krait will eat alive a FAS, and eats it alive any every aspect of the game lol.
it is not about eating and loling, it is about choice - you can decide which ship fits your play style better, i've seen sidewinder make federal corvette player run or type 9 forcing fdl to retreat, of course it all depends on piloting, play style and loadouts and that's what i try to do - give you some ideas about what you gain and what you lose if you choose one ship or another. by your logic there should be compared only like 4-5 ships because they eat most enemies.. until some pilot makes some funny loadout that annoys fdl army.
.... Except a Krait turns like an apartment block and has a hit profile the size of Canis Major, not to mention how easily it stalls if you try to turn it in a hurry, making a nice, easy target, and if the FAS is flown competently, the Krait's never gonna land a hit edgeways.
....... Or you could just ram the Krait to death.
@@DarthWall275 krait turns like an apartment block? Have you ever flown it? Have you got an engineered krait? You must be really bad if you can't hit a fas, and I'm not even considering the great difference in firepower between the two.Pls don't talk about things you obviously don't know...
@@rebution8930 I'm with Darth on this. The Krait is slow, til you engineer it SURE but you could say that about most slow ships. I'm always glad to see a Krait of any kind when I'm using frag cannon builds, because they eat every pellet taking full damage. They pop quicker than Eagles
