Perseus Pals

[cursive drum]

And the new combat ATLS??

[humble anvil]

Too bad the PDCs target the inferno otherwise

[cursive drum]

Inferno is tanky. It took 30 seconds to lower the shields on 1 in my Polaris.

[nocturne raft]

was trying out the new ion gun earlier as i didnt test it when it first changed, it chunks shields

[cursive drum]

The new what?

[nocturne raft]

the ares ion. it got its gun reworked in like february

they changed it from the hold up charge shot BOOM gun

its like a super slow laser cannon now that just chunks

[sage python]

Pretty sure that's what it used to be on release

might be wrong i had it for like 20 min lol

[nocturne raft]

i never flew one when it came out. all i ever knew it as was the charge up shot

and i remember the time it was meta cos it was 1 shotting fighters

and pvpers complained

[cursive drum]

Is it meta again?

[nocturne raft]

it used to be, then it got nerfed and people shat on it for years

now after it got a buff, its really good but i wouldnt say meta

im sure some pvper would write me an essay on why its slow fire rate makes it not

[agile tinsel]

It’s less about the fire rate for me and more about the slow velocity and also the fact that it doesn’t deal damage to the hull even if it destroys a shield with like 1% HP

Inferno is just way more user friendly and doesn’t have to worry about the 10 year travel time for rounds

It is literally impossible for the ion to 1 shot a fighter

[nocturne raft]

yeah now it is. sorry if i wasnt clear about it, im talking about before its change this year where it had its charge up ability

[sage python]

I mean, that was kinda the point of the ion wasn't it? to melt shields

[agile tinsel]

doesn't really work though when the shield eats all the shots, and then recharges because you missed one or two shots

and suddenly you're back at stage 1

also, the ion is more geared towards components

the concept page had it targeting idris weapons, so not the best representation, but it should be a threat to sub-cap ships lol

currently it's quite useless outside of VHRT

wouldn't even recommend ERT with it because it has no ability to sustain hits

[humble anvil]

Keke

Until we have the armor implementation and every ship stops having 50% physical reduction

Man maybe even ballistic penetration

The inferno will be in a good spot again

But I guess every other ship with a ballistic loadout will be too lol

[lone bloom]

basebuilding and fire hazard mentioned

https://tenor.com/view/sunnyfication-gif-20299408

[humble anvil]

OwO

[lone bloom]

[humble anvil]

@lone bloom Hopefully they have an M2 or C2 war bond today

Preferably an M2 because C2 I can't war bond unless they do $5 less

I think

I think they'd have to adjust the price of C2

I'll take some sub 100 or bonds though

Oh no

It's useless

Fk

[lone bloom]

well there is the C2 warbond

[humble anvil]

Yeah...

:v

[humble anvil]

I had a Aquila to TAC, for $5(?) or something. And it went up. The entire bracket there is a bit scuffed

But at least I have a starfarer to Gemini, Gemini to glaive, glaive to c2

Than a C2 I think to prowler

[lone bloom]

Well Iris said it herself too the 250-400 cash area is fucked

[humble anvil]

I think a prowler to ironclad

[lone bloom]

How does your fleet look like by now?

with all those new CCU's xD

[humble anvil]

Well really it's kind of a mixed bag

I have the potential for a bunch of different branches

[lone bloom]

Mmmhh mixed candy bag

xD

[humble anvil]

I basically have two chains going on

One is your perseus

The second one is My Arrastra

Your perseus is pretty much done

Just need IAE to release ironclad

You might not get the Perseus day one, but you'll get it

Oh they have a storm AA war bond as well

Oh my God

[lone bloom]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1121113616926638131/1369802022949490718/SmashPass.gif

[humble anvil]

That one might be a good pickup I'm not sure

[lone bloom]

Oh yeah @humble anvil about the bonfire paint for the max I wanted to get hm?

That was the leaked picture of said paint...

[humble anvil]

Oh I think that one's locked behind the flight blade

[lone bloom]

what the fuck is that? (screenshot from foxyloxy video)

[humble anvil]

I don't know

We need to find a gif or video of a bullet basically skimming something

And then that's something explodes violently

And there has to be a comedic pause

And will title it light fighters when the Perseus actually hits

[crystal sleet]

i wanna pick up that c2 warbond, but i dont know what to ccu up from

[humble anvil]

i did the glaive because

alien week is coming

i doubt there'l be a warbond offer for it

there wont be

the endeavor doesnt get warbond either

same as crucible

used $10 in Store credit to connect glaive to gemini

[lone bloom]

Where are you currently sitting with that CCU either way?

on a tac?

[crystal sleet]

im probably just gonna wait for IAE to do all the warbond stuff, thats when ill have money to dump

[humble anvil]

so this is where im at.

The ironclad will go up in price, same for the assault. just need them to come out at IAE

and then its a matter of getting a warbond M2 or an M2 to an upped in price Ironclad.

Same goes for the assault to carrack

that will cut roughly $100 from my chain if they do

put me at 300$ melt value

by all means, its not insane chain, but its my first one and im proud

then the second chain is roughly 30% discount right now

the arrastra chain thats no where near being done but aint going to double dip CCU's untill Perseus is done. Arrastra afterall has another year before its out anyways lol

[lone bloom]

I still don't even know what website that is

[lone bloom]

the fuck why is it that long compared to the percy chain, while percy is more expensive xD

[humble anvil]

my percy chain is... bigger lol

[lone bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/goodbye-chat-cat-cat-rise-cat-jump-gif-790403686475706815

[humble anvil]

wait

its scuffed

using dupes

[lone bloom]

also didn't you said its 250-300 percy? I see there is a 419 number xD

[humble anvil]

because im speculating both ironclads to go up by 50$ lol

and the chain while its pretty much finished, could maybe squeeze something in

so it'll sit at 300

[crystal sleet]

im probably just gonna do this chain, it could be better but im expecting to do most this when IAE comes around

[humble anvil]

catepillar will get a warbond no doubt

[lone bloom]

and it all started with a pulse xD

[humble anvil]

there's still a chance that i could do a pulse to something under the gladius

ofc then need a prospector warbond so that will save 10$ there

[lone bloom]

How long were you sitting on that btw

[humble anvil]

A few months.

[pine root]

Best I could do past IAE

[humble anvil]

https://www.reddit.com/r/starcitizen/comments/1kt09f1/everyone_melting_their_hangar_to_get_an_idris/

[lone bloom]

The only right and correct choice

Also the less insane choice because its not limited stock and does not cost half your liver

tbf I also do think Perseus is more future proof choice, because who knows how good AI Blades will be and or how expensive they gonna be, while you can crew the perseus with extremey little crew

I see- its your own post either way

[humble anvil]

ye

Perseus good ship for everything

[humble anvil]

Carrack WB CCU tomorrow

[lone bloom]

If there will be a warbond

[humble anvil]

here's the problem

will ironclad come to IAE or no :v

[lone bloom]

Well Perseus got mentioned multiple times

Ironclad not even a word yet

[humble anvil]

Perseus is more hyped

[lone bloom]

I mean, Perseus has assets and such

Ironclad would be the biggest drake ship at that point and doesnt have because of that the full varity of assets, and is also like 2x as large as a percy or not?

[humble anvil]

little bigger

relatively same size

its wider for sure

way wider

[lone bloom]

lol the ironclad is only 450?

"""only"""

[lone bloom]

Yeah I see thought its 140 meters in length lol

But its way way wider

and way more interior

so its technically 2x bigger from the inside

[humble anvil]

if it has more hull HP than the Perseus

something is wrong

[lone bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-cat-stare-stare-animal-funny-gif-21869355

Drake ships generally having more hull HP than other ships in their class is weird

They have in almost all cases only a fucking 1 cm metallwall as frame

Also don't forget that the Ironclad is Hull Limited

At least on the wiki but so far I can remember it was also sold out last IAE

Do you want the Ironclad for the Perseus/Arrastra chain or because of having it xD?

[humble anvil]

arrastra

[lone bloom]

I mean it may be available at drake day no?

But thats also after anvil day

[humble anvil]

it needs to release to flyable

otherwise price doesnt go up

[lone bloom]

I mean if its for the arrastra does it matter?

I mean it will surely release before the arrastra will xD

[humble anvil]

wait im sorry its for the Perseus

[lone bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/meltdown-3mta3-gif-17200345440174577824

Well then... xD its a game of luck

Guess its a 50/50 chance it will release

Especially because its command module thing... may be tricky

and way more animation than the perseus needed

[humble anvil]

was in production so long now

[lone bloom]

It entered production when the perseus did no?

[humble anvil]

not sure

but perseus easier to build because shared assets

[lone bloom]

I mean Ironclad sure has some assets because of other smaller ships like herald, cat, cutlass but not as many as Perseus and especially not the needed ones

[foggy beacon]

i'm gonna drop the idea of getting an Idris for now

need to recover my fleet

[lone bloom]

Idris is anyways just an flying base/hangar

[foggy beacon]

yeah

that can be disabled by a single torpedo

[lone bloom]

If persistence would consistently work that would be great like bedlogging on the Idris, maybe even with your crew, and just spawning there already mid space everytime with the ships you need that would be 10/10

But it doesn't work like that - at least not now

[foggy beacon]

currently my fleet recovered to A2, Phoenix, Eclipse, Mole, and firebird

gonna grab the asgard tomorrow

maybe more if there's interesting items

[lone bloom]

Oh right tomorrow the big reveal how much the asgard will cost

[foggy beacon]

i'm gonna assume somewhere 400

or 450

[lone bloom]

me to and its still way too overpriced

even for SC

[foggy beacon]

valk is 375 iirc

[lone bloom]

I know, valk is in the same position

[foggy beacon]

definitely gonna cost more than valk

though i like the look of asgard more than valk

[cursive drum]

Replace overpriced Eclipse with Chad Guardian instead.

[foggy beacon]

i have an LTI mx

with melt value of like 180

[lone bloom]

Yeah and valk is overpriced too still

But because of the valk being overpriced the asgard will be overpriced aswell

[foggy beacon]

yeah

should be cheaper

[lone bloom]

Valk 180

Asgard 220

Valk being cheaper than a taurus, asgard being slightly more expensive than a taurus but less than a starlancer max, thats where it should sit

Simply firepower / cargo capacity / size speaking

[foggy beacon]

honestly true

seems like a good price point

[lone bloom]

Well valk has less firepower and is less tanky than a taurus and similar SCU cargo grid so make it less expensive

Asgard has still less firepower, but a higher cargo grid capacity + usage of carry a tank/spartan so it can be a little bit higher priced

[humble anvil]

Interesting tid bit

Perseus loaner was changed from a Hammerhead to a Polaris.

Perseus confirmed upscaled

[lone bloom]

Uh yeah because loaner prefers same manufacture over same usage

[humble anvil]

[lone bloom]

Aslong its just as big as the hammerhead we will be fine

[humble anvil]

I will be devastated if they make it significantly bigger

[foggy beacon]

doubt it

at most like

20 meter longer

[lone bloom]

Max is 120 meters

More likely 110

aka same as HH

I just assume that the fighter Meta will still persist till then even with engineering

[cursive drum]

Yes, a while ago, why?

[cursive drum]

Make Hammerhead good to stop fighters when?

[lone bloom]

Won't happen

Unless they significant increase turret bullet speeds

[cursive drum]

Well why not??

[lone bloom]

They did not care since it got released

why should they now

We got the polaris, and it also didn't got changed

now we got the idris and there is still no change in view xD

[cursive drum]

To make people interested in buying one.

[lone bloom]

Would be a lil bit late years after sale? :p

[cursive drum]

I can still buy it now.

[lone bloom]

Then do so but the hype for that ship is long over.

[cursive drum]

Not until it is good at it's 1 job.

[humble anvil]

Imagine

Perseus S8 with 1800m/s shots 7km range

Alpha 4k per gun

I forget what we're estimating, I think it's 7.1k alpha (?)

7550 alpha per gun

[steel sparrow]

being bespoke means CIG can poke around the numbers right?

what if they increase the bullet speed significantly but decrease the damage

to S7

[humble anvil]

That would be amazing

800m/s pew pew can't hit shit 7km away

[steel sparrow]

fr

I'd say around 1600m/s is good enough?

Slow enough for fighters to get away, fast enough to catch most large ships

imagine 3000m/s tho🤤

[crystal sleet]

2 googol meters per second

[steel sparrow]

I bet u googled that shi up

just make it hit scan X D

Shoots an idris in pyro from stanton

[crystal sleet]

i want to rememebr that an idris exists, then that speciic idris gets deleted

[crystal sleet]

well i mean, i didnt need to because Youtube isa magical place of random infomation. Also Google is meant to be a site that holds so much information, that you could say it has Googol sources of info

[humble anvil]

S8

[lone bloom]

That would be 2000 faster than pdcs lol

[humble anvil]

Holy shit

Decent

[humble anvil]

Would be insane but I bet the alpha would be 1k

Would also put light fighters in danger xddd

[lone bloom]

They will either way probably try to fuck perseus because of bespoken

And "mimimi it isnt supposed to kill a polaris that easy"

Meanwhile every light and Medium fighter being able to fuck a polaris solo if not using the shield cycle exploit

[lone bloom]

Slancer finally getting a actual buff

[humble anvil]

4.2 no more shield cycle

[lone bloom]

Now give it s5 guns and i am happy temporarily Till perseus

[humble anvil]

They're fucked

[lone bloom]

Its just the thing that no turret is able to shoot at Medium or light fighters besides pdcs

Because they simply outmanover the bullets lol

[lone bloom]

@humble anvil and whats your plan now, waiting for Ironclad, or going with carrack in a few hours?

[humble anvil]

I'm probably pick up the carrot for Arrastra

If it's the CCU option

[lone bloom]

the carrot?

[humble anvil]

Carrack

[lone bloom]

And with the perseus the Ironclad ? xd

Going into the gamble

[humble anvil]

Well I have a Perseus to Carrick CCU

Or caric to Persia CCU

So either way it's in the right direction

I don't I'm not sure if I can use a carrot CCU for the arrest draw I have to check

I'm driving home from McDonald's

[lone bloom]

Thought the current plan is Ironclad -> carrot -> Perseus

if Ironclad gets price hike

[humble anvil]

The plan is to give you the Perseus CCU with the ironclad CCU but during IAE I will have to pick up a Ironclad to Carrick CCU when and if it goes up in price

If it doesn't go up in price then I will still have a war bond carrot CCU if we get it at ILW today

Whether or not it does release at IAE, either way as long as we get a Carrick CCU today or tomorrow we're good

On Drake day and finale we may be able to pick up another Ironclad CCU to hold on for another chain

[lone bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/burger-king-furry-jr-double-triple-gif-27521621

[lone bloom]

@humble anvil no Carrack warbond

only this one

[foggy beacon]

oh

Asgard cheaper than valk

that's nice

[lone bloom]

I mean because of taxes its the same price for me as the valk lol

But thats fucked up

Also uh where do I start those ambush/patrol missions?

[lone bloom]

Kinda meh, would be the pilot weapons stronger... then it might been worth the upgrade but asgard is surely worse for combat than the SLMax lol

[humble anvil]

Exciting opportunity with foxwell enforcement

[lone bloom]

yeah already found it

currently testing the assgard

Its not that great because only S3 .-.

Assgard is literally ass for ship combat so its literally just vehicle transport / ground assault

same level as the TAC just with less utilities

[lone bloom]

Somehow, even while the Foxwell missions with ambush etc pay less/per time are kinda easier since they are never in atmosphere, right?

[lone bloom]

It takes ages to kill a raft with an Asgard

[humble anvil]

they are never in atmo correct

[lone bloom]

Perfect missions for percy

[humble anvil]

perfect mission indeed

espsecially the red contracts

[lone bloom]

don't know only got to the yellow contracts

[humble anvil]

lots of Catepillar , Retaliators, M2's to blow up

[lone bloom]

no connies?

https://tenor.com/view/cat-cat-stare-stare-animal-funny-gif-21869355

[humble anvil]

i think connie as well

[lone bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/darth-vader-no-noooo-gif-7347380959994097336

Not like they would be a problem with the perseus

[lone bloom]

Alot of juicy 'confiscatable" loot

[humble anvil]

the loot isnt the best

in fact

its all shit

i think maybe if you do headhunters version of the missions it would be alot better

[lone bloom]

dunno, just did like 3-4 missions with a cutty as enemy and none had quant, eggs, or even slam

[humble anvil]

the headhunters version?

[lone bloom]

Nah Foxwell

[humble anvil]

foxwell is all shit

[lone bloom]

[humble anvil]

quarts, iron, scrap, corundum

corundum isnt the worst but its mostly crap

[lone bloom]

Assuming the missions also do pay more in Pyro?

I mean Pyro it is then

What do they carry there?

[humble anvil]

idk

[lone bloom]

But you said they are better how can they be better if you don't know what they carry

[humble anvil]

these missions are illegal and if vaughn is anything to go on... the loot will be better

[lone bloom]

I mean sure they are illegal, but its in pyro so it doesn't matter

And there are also bounty missions in pyro, they do pay better, but they carry literally 0 cargo

Thats why i was suprised in the first place

May test them later tonight then, I assume they are called the same ? Like Yellow / red stuff

[humble anvil]

idk

this should be the mission u want

its patrol

[lone bloom]

Council scrip is assuming the same as MG script?

[humble anvil]

yea

[lone bloom]

so useless

xD

probably have like 400 or 500 scrips by now

gonna tell you if they carry cargo / what cargo @humble anvil

Once I get the missions with Cutlass etc

[humble anvil]

if we can get the goods from that

that will be the play

[lone bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/arcadia-harlock-flag-gif-27129050

[humble anvil]

its ai

lol

aint no pirate shit

[lone bloom]

Pirating AI

[humble anvil]

what difference is foxwell or headhunters

we still killing ai xdd

[lone bloom]

well the one is in pyro

[humble anvil]

the one im doing is in stanton

[lone bloom]

and one is for the law the other one is probably straight up piracy lore wise

[humble anvil]

lol

im doing headhunters in stanton rn

[lone bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/midnight-the-cat-stopped-working-midnight-the-cat-cat-cat-meme-funny-cat-gif-81113296414293415

you still using the conni

[humble anvil]

the phoenix yeah

[lone bloom]

[humble anvil]

the PDC is very helpful

very very very very

[lone bloom]

dunno

never flown any ship with a PDC

Well I cannot even do anything

ASOP doesn't let me call ships at all even with server switches

[cursive drum]

Is it really?

[lone bloom]

Finally got out of the station after 4 server hops

the fuck ? xD

[humble anvil]

yeah

its

so gross

[lone bloom]

is that supposed to be a beard?

[humble anvil]

got a mis

will see if anything is inside

i really hope there's good good

because normal foxwell is a bit cringe

[lone bloom]

But don't you get crimestat?

or are they always outside of commaray

[humble anvil]

outside comm

ooo eee its not looking good

[lone bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-shock-gasp-what-da-hell-open-mouth-gif-10085839188243199944

nothin good?

[humble anvil]

yeah nothing

seems like missions are quick to grind

as well

pretty much on orange contracts already

[lone bloom]

soooo it might either be only for red contracts

or they nerfed it to the ground

[humble anvil]

same loot at foxwell so far

[lone bloom]

well then i might continue forxwell for now and hope for red contract

[humble anvil]

lkike corundum is good but you need alot of it

[lone bloom]

scrap is good too aslong there is alot

[humble anvil]

its not the same

as RMC

or Construction Material

Scrap is legit junk

[lone bloom]

literally made millions with it last time i remember having 8x 32 SCU of scrap xD

[humble anvil]

its almost 2k uec per SCU,

better than corundum

lol

corundum is trash wtf

GOLD THO

6.3k auec per scu

i did see gold

[lone bloom]

me too

but 6.3K hm

I prefer the juicy quant slam or weevil

[humble anvil]

ya

[lone bloom]

I mean 20+K per scu

[humble anvil]

something called neon

sec

8.5k per auec

oooo its a drug

seems to be alot more ace pilots too in the illegal missions

[lone bloom]

yeah its a drug but not really worth the risk for 8,5k unless in high quantities

[humble anvil]

im only finding shit off these small ships occasionally

not up to reds yet for illegal

[lone bloom]

im not even orange yet xD

on foxwell

[humble anvil]

stop doing foxwell

no cargo

do the illegal foxwell missions

from headhunters. read the flavor text and look for "patrol" keywords

avoid ambush

[lone bloom]

Noted: You should fly slowly in ambush missions...

There may or may not sometimes VERY small asteroids that may or may not rip off your engine

orange level finally

I mean I must say, ambush/patrol missions are way more engaging than bounty missions

and work way more frequently

Didn't had any bugs yet

well besides the ASOP shit stuff and jawas in the hangar eating my ships when I call them

[humble anvil]

if your marker dissapears

travel away and come back

markers come back

its great

low tier missions no cargo

crying face

[lone bloom]

well

shields went down the first time

the asgard fucking has zero hull hp xD

[humble anvil]

get an andromeda

lol

[lone bloom]

nah have an F7C (ingame bought ofc)

Just kept testing the Asgard

[humble anvil]

game plz give me a freelancer max or something

i want to see some goodies

[lone bloom]

I mean I saved all my money ingame to purchase a percy once ingame available also

[humble anvil]

ravit

smh

[lone bloom]

I mean may got a lil bit overboard with the money

[humble anvil]

when perseus release, i want all your auec

[lone bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/jinx-cat-huh-confused-meme-gif-3282660700962977407

Why xD

I mean I couldn't care less if I have a perseus for it

[humble anvil]

ya

i'll take your auec as payment

xdd

[lone bloom]

But I still need money for basebuilding

If it may release somewhere around that

[humble anvil]

maybe

[lone bloom]

And what if there happens a wipe before it?

[humble anvil]

got a taurus ambush

HOLDDDDDDDDDD

[lone bloom]

Orange but with a taurus ambush? lol

[humble anvil]

right taurus doesnt have a cargo bay

[lone bloom]

yeah noticed that too on an phoenix

probably a new bug

fucking one of the deadliest ships and it has a bug without a cargo bay

[humble anvil]

it was like that last patch too

[lone bloom]

lmao

didn't noticed it then

how much is a phoenix ingame?

[humble anvil]

15m

[lone bloom]

because you know, pdc :p

[humble anvil]

phoenix is really good

[lone bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/daeth-funi-periflight-dies-from-gif-22212023

but barely cargo no?

can carry no 32 SCU boxes i assume

[humble anvil]

96scu i think

[lone bloom]

Yeah but can it carry 32 container?

[humble anvil]

I... dont know

have yet to try to shove a 32 scu container in here

[lone bloom]

got an valk in orange ambush

no cargo at all ofc .-.

[humble anvil]

well i saw neon on a ship, annnd fox well def doesnt have those

prayge

[lone bloom]

got a connie taurus now too

in contracts

[humble anvil]

no cargo bay xd

[lone bloom]

let me hope

might get a phoenix then tomorrow maybe

not even the freelancer escort had cargo lmao

https://tenor.com/view/star-citizen-scam-writing-whiteboard-marker-gif-17516642

nothing but small ships so far

oh here we go

[humble anvil]

this is upper orange

should shoulldd have goodies

[lone bloom]

got a raft maybe that one has cargo xd

[humble anvil]

it will

Gold and Neon are probably worth picking up if there's alot of it

32scu is 224k for neon

32scu if 192k for gold

[lone bloom]

37 SCU Gold

[humble anvil]

rough numbers

[lone bloom]

on the raft

[humble anvil]

yeah its alright if its a big 32scu crate

otherwise prob not worth the time

[lone bloom]

maybe gonna take a look xd

its a 32 scu box

[humble anvil]

Good pickup

I'm off the game for a little

Let me know what you find

@lone bloom

Anything new?

[lone bloom]

Nope just got another Taurus without cargo bay and went to seraphim to store the gold

I mean its 2 AM

[humble anvil]

Yeah

The lack of big ships until red contracts are disgusting

But it's an easy grind to get to

[lone bloom]

It might be overpowered and overkill to bring later on a perseus to those fights I guess... once rep gets wiped again

Freaking Titan renegrade or such getting ambushed by a full on battleship

[humble anvil]

when red contracts its M2's, MSR's, Starfarers, Catepillars

im logging back in to continue grind

[steel sparrow]

How does one achieve such feat?

[lone bloom]

Supply or die Event

Made 13 million per cargo run

[steel sparrow]

:0

[lone bloom]

Also isn't the total number

Thats the number after I bought uh a C2, Hull C and F7C

[steel sparrow]

:0

I missed out didn’t I

[lone bloom]

Well since there were 3 permanent rewards for the event too, yes

technically 4

[steel sparrow]

Can’t buy shit during that time so I gave up

[lone bloom]

Those were the permanent rewards

[steel sparrow]

I identify as kilometers per second because I want to km/s

[lone bloom]

I mean the event were going on for like an entire month or longer

had enough time to do so xd

It was literally just uh

deliver 700+ SCU of Corundum and something else I cannot remember anymore (300+ of each) to pyro gate station

[steel sparrow]

Can’t buy it

[lone bloom]

so pretty much traveling just between seraphim, area 18 and pyro station

you were able to buy those

[steel sparrow]

It’s always out of stock for me XOX

[lone bloom]

did cost roughly 100K per each mission to get a payout of 13 million

yeah the stock refreshes every 15 min

Most people hogged at Magnus Station because there you could've get both materials at the same time

I just went with methode of getting one material per station, which was also more near Pyro station and just hauled material for two missions in one

like once 700 ish scu of corundum and other run 700 scu of the other material so i was able to do 2 missions at once xD

easy 26 million per 30-40 min

[steel sparrow]

I think the problem for me at the time is that I didn’t know auto loading worked and I got a carrack

[lone bloom]

There was no autoload

had to do it manually

I mean there isn't autoload right now either for mission commodities xD

[steel sparrow]

Ohhh

Welp

Too late now😌

[lone bloom]

so of those 30-40 min pretty much 25 min minimum were just loading and unloading

And that the ATLS tends to kill you once you enter it wasn' helpfull either

you also get a polaris captain chair and an tshirt if you do the hunt the polaris event and the few pilot training missions

[humble anvil]

legit mined all the materials myself and then turned em all in with my org

lol

[steel sparrow]

The polaris mission is bugged for me

[lone bloom]

so you did all the work but got only a split of the money? xd

[lone bloom]

wasn't bugged the first few days thats why doing missions directly after they launch especially event missions is sadly kind of mandatory lol

since they tend to break days after xd

Also - can we please talk about that the Perseus is pretty much unboardable with a bit of crew?

Only a single airlock entrance which looks also longer than most other airlocks, the first room they enter is the cargo bay where crew could shoot down from the catwalk and have the highground, and even if they should go past that, the only and single entrance to the bridge is the elevator that may be able to get shutdown/deactivated and only access then is the ladder in said elevator

and to make it even worse, for the boarders, engineering is also on the bridge level so crew can keep on fixing the ship unlike in other ships where boarders just could take the components and leave the ship and crew back to rot

[steel sparrow]

imagine stealing the enemy's idris' power generator mid fight

[humble anvil]

you aint wrong

hey i thought role for gif perms was 10k messages

[lone bloom]

it is

You have to message modmail

[humble anvil]

ye

got it

[lone bloom]

But may take a bit to actualy get the role because mods have to apply it

[lone bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/mr-bean-mrbean-bean-mr-bean-holiday-mr-bean-holiday-movie-gif-3228235746377647455

Now its about waiting

[humble anvil]

i messaged them

Every Ship Manufacturer when ; Croberts buffing the Perseus with Beam guns, another shield, s4 PDTs, 4x PDCs, and Incredibly tanky form factor with 96 SCU officially supported through Grid

[lone bloom]

Realisticly...

It may even get a third shield

I mean most released ship lately got "more" shield gens than its usual for their size

[humble anvil]

For the price range its about to be at. lol

yeah

[lone bloom]

I mean look at the zeus class

the ES has 4 or 3 shields

xD

[humble anvil]

Its an RSI Ship, so Croberts wont fuck it up

besides a rushed interior

on paper it'll be a beast

[lone bloom]

Tac is smaller than a HH or C2 and has same shields as them

[humble anvil]

OH

hold up

[lone bloom]

HH has 2 stronghold shields

[humble anvil]

oh wow

it does

[lone bloom]

so I don't see why the Perseus won't get a third

[humble anvil]

Perseus is definitely getting 3

[lone bloom]

I mean I also don't see why the HH shouldn't get a third

[humble anvil]

it needs updated

[lone bloom]

since why does it have the same shield as a C2 in the first place

Also they said with release of the zeus they will update ships components to fit their class more specific

and Asgard also has 4 shields or not?

[humble anvil]

it'll get a 3rd

[lone bloom]

fair

but all military by stock

even if its just B rank

[humble anvil]

because perseus is going to have 2 power plants... theres not enough weaponary to utilize the pips

[lone bloom]

oh thats the A2

xD

[humble anvil]

plus TAC and A2 shielding

for hte price ranges

[lone bloom]

(asgard got btw 3 shields just looked it up)

[humble anvil]

asgard has 4 s2

lol

[lone bloom]

and? Perseus doesn't need the power for the guns tho

[humble anvil]

exactly

[lone bloom]

ah nvm looked at the coolers

[humble anvil]

just another reason for them to throw another shield in there

[lone bloom]

perseus probably only needing 2-3 pips for guns because of blades/the S3 dual turrets

rest will absolutely go into shield and engines

[humble anvil]

well still need a pip even for the ballistics

oh dear the pdcs

[lone bloom]

ik but 2-3 so the dual S3 also have... at least somewhat firepower

yeah the 4 PDC's + the 2 dual S3 will fuck lower tier PvE missions lol

don't even need a gunner

I really hope they don't come with a nerf hammer sometime like they did with the ares

oh yeah forgot i wanted to buy a phoenix

[humble anvil]

want to fly mine before spending 15 mill?

im stationed out of Seraphim

[lone bloom]

You just don't want that I use the cash you will potentially get

[humble anvil]

i dont care xd

i get 1m auec from you its whatever. AUEC means nothing to me

[lone bloom]

I mean AUEC is worthless once you have a perseus ngl

[humble anvil]

i'll hop on

unless you're already flying over to lorville to buy it

xd

[lone bloom]

not even logged in

[humble anvil]

i can sit in the turret tbh

[lone bloom]

but what guns do you have on it

Stock?

[humble anvil]

attritions, basically fully Military A

shield is a Parapet Grade A Industrial

[lone bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-cat-stare-stare-animal-funny-gif-21869355

[humble anvil]

the turret has S3 Ardors

[lone bloom]

ah same I got on my slancer

xD

Just that I don't have military A comps

used the best comps i was able to buy, because not gonna farm for days just to get mil comps

[humble anvil]

its pointless

civilian, industrial shield, does just fine

civilian less power usage, decent hp, pretty verage acrossed the board

[humble anvil]

i got ton of events today with the Org.. Gimme your handle will add you

[lone bloom]

GlurexHD ingame^^

[humble anvil]

added u

CR-0101-NA , named Rustle .

[lone bloom]

Oh you're one of those

So your ship will always look like an unidentified one

[humble anvil]

set chat to party

[steel sparrow]

anyway me being broke

gonna start hualing

[humble anvil]

@lone bloom More like 1 and a half

but dude thats crazy the interior lines up with the Perseus's Interior in terms of playability

just has 3 layers

[lone bloom]

the wings tho

xd

[humble anvil]

Mr needy

[lone bloom]

see so its technically 2 connies at last

[lone bloom]

and still has more interior utility

[humble anvil]

yah know what i bet they'll do

[lone bloom]

please no

https://tenor.com/view/go-away-spray-bottle-spray-water-clarky-gif-11897567545532504751

[humble anvil]

but then you can do ;

or some shit

[lone bloom]

but it destroys the percy visually xd

[humble anvil]

Connies are Sausages without its engine. Polaris is a buttplug withouts its engine. and the Perseus? That's a foreign object ready to be rammed into the nearest hammerhead

[lone bloom]

Rustle is now a criminal

[humble anvil]

Hell naaaaa

Imma kms

Wonder what the WB offer today is

Surely the carrack

THE PALADIN?! LOOOL

LOOOOOOOOL

https://tenor.com/view/kill-me-drink-bleach-gif-22890796

[steel sparrow]

After doing 3 hr of hualing, I'm even more broke now......

First wasted auec on 32 scu boxes because I forgot I can't call it in median hanger

Then game decide to crash on, me......

[humble anvil]

😭

🤣

[lone bloom]

Should I sacrafice my SLMax for the paladin? Surely not, right?

[lone bloom]

Well no Perseus for me

[lone bloom]

You got crobertst

https://tenor.com/view/nothing-ever-happens-chud-chudjak-soyjak-90-seconds-to-nothing-gif-9277709574191520604

tbf carrack isn't a combat ship

so kinda makes sense they go with the paladin i guess?

[azure fulcrum]

perseus has such insane firepower for its size

I just hope they can give it the proper amenities like an armory suit lockers storage cabinets and maybe even a medbay

cause it's a warship the crew should be able to arm itself and defend against boarding parties

[lone bloom]

both isn't in there lol

I mean there are confirmed suit lockers and weapon racks, but not as dedicated armory more like as integradeted in the walls at the airlock and such

[azure fulcrum]

not in concept but who knows when it gets released

[lone bloom]

like in the Zeus

[azure fulcrum]

good enough

yeah that's what I was wondering

it doesn't need a medbay perse but it would be nice

[lone bloom]

Thats how it should be

But it isnt

[azure fulcrum]

I think where it says armory is just a bedbunk?

[lone bloom]

There is no dedicated armoey

Armory*

I made that just how i would do it

Reducing the bunk size and add another room

[azure fulcrum]

I know

[lone bloom]

so crew quarters would be half the size, but would give room for an dedicated armory or med bay

and making the captains room larger because what is that shit xD

[azure fulcrum]

yeah lol

I'm not all that familiar with the layout but this looks like wasted space

[lone bloom]

because it is

those are single beds

[azure fulcrum]

oh wtf

[lone bloom]

instead of bunk beds

thats why reducing the room by half would work

[azure fulcrum]

that's just plain stupid

[lone bloom]

with same crew size

[azure fulcrum]

[lone bloom]

by just turning them into bunk beds xD

[azure fulcrum]

wow

[lone bloom]

I mean Polaris has bunk beds, hammerhead has them pretty much every somewhat military ship has them

just not the perseus in concept

So there is easily room for a armory at last

[azure fulcrum]

perseus was made for elderly people like gary old man they can't climb the lader for the bunkbeds

[lone bloom]

at least the size of the Starlancers Armory it has on the bottom floor

and that thing has what? 4 armor lockers?

or 5

[azure fulcrum]

yeah fuck

[lone bloom]

and 2-3 big weapon racks

on a freaking freight ship xD

[azure fulcrum]

IDK but the interior seems rushed they might have changed it by now

[lone bloom]

Just that area feels rushed tho

[azure fulcrum]

let me hope and cope XDDD

[lone bloom]

They may have changed it i mean we don't have any updates on the perseus for uh since concept release

in terms of interior

[lone bloom]

So thats (+ both other floors) are the only infos we have + the map where it shows where is what

and that info is dunno 5 years old?

[azure fulcrum]

exactly lol

[lone bloom]

dunno if percy was announced 20 or 21

but guess 20

[azure fulcrum]

28 November 2020

[lone bloom]

easy

[azure fulcrum]

so almost 5 years

[lone bloom]

4 1/2

close enough

also i am currently struggling

[azure fulcrum]

why?

[lone bloom]

Should I or should I not

[azure fulcrum]

i mean think objectively what does the galaxy has to offer and is it reasonable at that pricepoint

[lone bloom]

Nothin but big triangle

[azure fulcrum]

we got a mining module, cargo module ehh medbay module thingy it can do what smaller ships can but with triple the crew requirement and maintenance

[lone bloom]

Refining module not mining

[azure fulcrum]

so it can't evne mine? damn

[lone bloom]

Nope

gets outclassed by arrastra in everything except medical

[azure fulcrum]

well its pretty much useless then other than it has a small hangar you can put a fury in

[lone bloom]

its a larger hangar than the tac

way larger

[azure fulcrum]

ok what can it fit?

[lone bloom]

Dedicated for pisces

probably gonna fit a F7

[azure fulcrum]

pisces yeah...

[azure fulcrum]

never and will I ever understand the appeal of galaxy

[lone bloom]

Well me neither, but if its your "only" ship yk

[azure fulcrum]

oh that seems decent size but I doubt it will fit any serious fighters

like the arrow is way too tall with the wing tips I tried in the asgard

and gladius way too wide

[lone bloom]

The issue is now just for me, Rustle plans to gift me a LTI Percy, what do I do then with the Slancer

[azure fulcrum]

slancer max?

[lone bloom]

Yep

Because I won't use that likely then

[azure fulcrum]

well you're in a similar situation as me I think because I have the MX and am considering the paladin and asgard

[lone bloom]

Or they finally fucking reveal the BLD and if its just a few bucks i gladly take that one

Sure its just a one time use maybe, but then I don't have to worry about getting basebuild drones like - at all and both my main gameplay loops are covered

[azure fulcrum]

the asgard is nice but I'm wondering if I really need it when I have a perseus that already has 50 SCU cargo and can carry a rover sized vehicle

like do I really need the asgard when I have a perseus what do you think?

[lone bloom]

Do you wanna carry tanks?

If not, no

[azure fulcrum]

it is lower crew requirement

[azure fulcrum]

I don't want to pay 120$ for a oversized tank lol

[lone bloom]

I mean they are dirt cheap ingame

1 mil nova?

maybe less

[azure fulcrum]

damn that's cheap

[lone bloom]

spartan variants even less probably

visually look better too xD

but in both cases 0 usecase

yet

[azure fulcrum]

I like the storm too it's only 400k ingame

[lone bloom]

Storm may fit in percy

I mean storm is way smaller than a nova

its just barely bigger than an ursa

[azure fulcrum]

yeah but you understand my hesitation because the perseus can do mostly what the asguard can but is way tankier and has insane firepower

[lone bloom]

and needs similar crew xD

[azure fulcrum]

I guess you can solo the asguard kinda

yeah only 3 people lol

[lone bloom]

Honestly

I think you can solo the Asgard less likely

than the perseus

[azure fulcrum]

what why

[lone bloom]

Just look where the engineering is

Perseus engineering is straight the next room to the bridge on the same floor

[azure fulcrum]

.> the fuck

[lone bloom]

your 2x Dual S3 and 4 pdcs still operatre

operate*

[azure fulcrum]

LOL yes

[lone bloom]

while you are quickly jumping into next room doing fast repair

in the asgard

you have to walk back in your ship

go down the ladder

[azure fulcrum]

interesting take I like it

[lone bloom]

through 2 doors

and then you're in engineering xd

and same way back while nothing defends your ship

[azure fulcrum]

yeah its a pain in the ass

[lone bloom]

and way less Hull HP/Armor/Shield

technically 3 doors since the cockpit also has a door

So Perseus surely is more likely soloable than asgard xd

[azure fulcrum]

I wanna get rid of the GMX eventually, maybe we'll get the RSI meteor at a higher price or drake heavy fighter or something I can upgrade to instead of the asguard

a percy is going to survive a lot longer too and it has the PDCs like you said lol

[lone bloom]

And just take you are a two person crew (aka the one I will run)

[azure fulcrum]

correct

[lone bloom]

Pilot can do engineering while the top turret gunner keeps destroying the targets

lol

[azure fulcrum]

lol

[lone bloom]

sure won't work for PvP, but for PvE thats more than enough xD

[azure fulcrum]

certainly having a paladin and perseus is redundant

[lone bloom]

Paladin is just a smaller perseus yes

[azure fulcrum]

considering the paladin is going to be a slug they said as slow as redeemer pre changes

[lone bloom]

Paladin is pretty much a budget Perseus

[azure fulcrum]

yeah

[grave canyon]

assgard is gud

buy assgard too

[lone bloom]

Its good for what it is, but its too pricy also it was about usability xd

and soloability

[azure fulcrum]

assguard is good but still I have a percy lol

yeah price aside usability and soloability is what I'm looking for

[lone bloom]

The pain in the ass is just that I plan on getting an Arrastra (ingame ofc I don't have money ) it may be able to carry tanks and such too prob even multiple

[azure fulcrum]

it will

[lone bloom]

So I wouldn't have a use for the asgard at all, but I like the asgard visually xd

[azure fulcrum]

yeah

you have to think carefully about building your fleet or else you're stuck with too many ships that do the same thing

[lone bloom]

I mean Asgard is literally an Osprey

https://tenor.com/view/osprey-gif-20114309

[azure fulcrum]

pretty much with guns slapped on it

[lone bloom]

yeah thats why i like it visually

but prob won't ever get it ever, because i don't have a usecase

[azure fulcrum]

the 180 SCU and it can carry any vehicle with a full living quarters and everything you need is pretty nice

while still being able to take small to medium fighters

[lone bloom]

Well I already know exactly what ships I want and there are kinda no double "use" ships that share their usecase except for 2, but they are in different size classes
The only issue there is currently my SL MAX Unless it becomes an BLD

Can quickly create it in fleetviewer and you can judge

[azure fulcrum]

XDD

[azure fulcrum]

this is mine, I only care about combat, it's just that I'm lacking ground combat capability rn because I don't have perseus ingame yet

[azure fulcrum]

and I'm lacking cargo hauling

the ground clearance for spartan is what annoys me tho

[lone bloom]

Fair, but i like the spartan visually alot

And as I said..... dirt cheap

[azure fulcrum]

nice diverse fleet but the 600i I don't get lol

[lone bloom]

Touring

Once touring missions are there

[azure fulcrum]

hmm

[lone tundra]

I'd just add an Ursa Medivac and you're good to go

[azure fulcrum]

yeah for the perseus it makes a lot of sense

then you're ground combat ready basically

[lone bloom]

The only thing my fleet is missing is a mining and salvage ship

depending on if you need them for basebuilding and crafting

If not..... theeeennn I don't need them

ah nvm forgot arrastra is mining

[lone tundra]

You would, but you don't need to do it all by yourself

[azure fulcrum]

yeah you can just have other people do it for you, I would focus on gameplay that you think is fun

like touring, mining salvaging doesn't sound fun to me at all lol

[lone bloom]

Yeah Touring depends if it will be fun or not

done it in Elite

If its just like cargo hauling scrap that

[azure fulcrum]

I don't need the gladius but hell it's so much more fun and agile to fly then the MX I end up using it more

[lone bloom]

I mean that would be either way my "Ingame farm" (starting from left to right)

[azure fulcrum]

when percy gets released the MX becomes obsolete anyways for me because I can use percy for the higher tier PvE combat missions

[lone bloom]

aka starting with ATLS Geo (unless I get him from the Banner Competition that somehow still has no winner announced weeks after)

The fact that the arrastra invalides so many other ships is crazy

[azure fulcrum]

yeah right now it seems combat missions can earn enough money anyways I don't see a need to farm yet

[lone bloom]

Got an Arrastra? Don't need a Cargo hauler, any other mining, or even an refining ship because its all in one single ship

[azure fulcrum]

arrastra can haul?

[lone bloom]

almost 700 SCU

Ongrid

Because it refines its mined stuff instantly

[azure fulcrum]

not too shabby

[lone bloom]

and pumpes it out as SCU

so it has to store them somewhere, like salvagers

has alot of exterior and alot of interior SCU space

Thats why Rustle is currently CCUIng to it

64 Internal Cargo Space (+ Offgrid the entire Vehicle bay which is extremely huge) and 512 Ongrid SCU External

So its pretty much a larger better looking C2, that can mine and refine

[azure fulcrum]

lol nice

[lone bloom]

So.... if you have an arrastra you basically only need something for combat, touring, and salvage and you're set for literally every game loop the game offers

(and basebuilding, depending on if you will need a dedicated ship or not dunno)

There were pictures of the arrastras vehicle bay but cannot find it anymore

[azure fulcrum]

massive

[lone bloom]

Supposed to fit 2 Roc DS

and there was still alot room left to use xd

[lone tundra]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5cfBijqlULM&t=593s

[lone bloom]

found it already

obviously

So its a thing between the Mole - Orion

[azure fulcrum]

sooo what did we learn this week

[lone bloom]

Arrastra is an "Overpowered mining" ship? :p

[azure fulcrum]

XD

[lone bloom]

And that apparantly cargo of bounties got nerfed alongside ambush and patrol missions cargo

those fuckers don't carry drugs or quant at all

Its kinda funny you can have two - to three ships and got all your main loops covered completely and then there are people with like half of the entire star citizens ships they offer

Ironically my current pledge doesn't cover anything because its "technically just an freighter" and not combat related nor basebuild

[azure fulcrum]

the fact I have a heavy and a light fighter at the same time already bothers me lol

[lone bloom]

(yet using it for combat exclusively)

[lone bloom]

Thought you like the gladius xD

[azure fulcrum]

I got the QI because it has a living quarters and is long range but now the MX is even more limited

[azure fulcrum]

yeah I'm getting rid of the MX

[lone bloom]

while being bigger, ironically

I mean I only have this one so... xD yet

[azure fulcrum]

still I can't decide what upgrade the MX to

I'm hoping for new concepts or new straight to fly release because we're seeing less concepts every year

[lone bloom]

Because they are working on backlog

[humble anvil]

BMM, San'Tok.Yai, Glaive, got WB offers last alien week

[lone bloom]

Ironically mostly on the backlog of "newer" concepts

[azure fulcrum]

yeah lol

[azure fulcrum]

BMM is 400 now?

[humble anvil]

im ready

[lone bloom]

@humble anvil rate this fleet xD

[humble anvil]

Ravit my brain right now

[azure fulcrum]

oh wtf bmm is 650 now and 600 warbond

[humble anvil]

i see the perseus and arrastra, you're good

everything else is irrelevant

[lone bloom]

I mean, its just plan for ingame purchases

post 1.0

[humble anvil]

BLD is needed for BLD obv

but maybe go galaxy if it gets its building module beccause triangle

[lone bloom]

fleet start at 1.0 will be just ATLS GEO (maybe because contest win) - the Perseus and the BLD
