I wish I could switch seats in my own ships to try out the different views.
It's time to give this another go.

Handed in 6K in bounties and nothing changed. Another 85 rolls to get to level 5. But it's done till the next time.

After I was done, tested the Regens on Tor. Apparently 3 Large healing beams on the Space Cow is not enough to keep the sheilds up with 4 pips and a full boost nose first in the dirt. 10% hull gone. I did it in the Conda and never lost shields. Proof than a Conda is tougher than a Cow :P

Well yeah as it should be I saw pics on an Anaconda swallowing a big fat Brown Cow. :evil:

Speaking of Conda, Conda or Aspx to Colonia both with 40ish LY FSD

I would take the asp.

If memory serves you too have vr?
And that will become a special something.
The conda is much more limited in view and I found the manouverabillity in cruise to be absolutely hair pulling after a few thousand ly.

So first time I went out exploring I did in the cond and regular screen.
I got as far as about 5kly until I found the magic "go home" button.
In the asp and with vr. I got all the way to colonial in about a week.

There are also bases along the way, not just bubble - colonia.
Most are settlement types but there is for instance an asteroid base in a ring in the eagle nebula if memory serves.

Now transferring a conda to colonial would be.
When I got there I checked some of the prices and the main rate was something like 2x full buy cost.
So my corvette would cost about a 1.2 billion to move out there. And take two weeks or something.

AspX because of the better turn rate in SC. Conda would feel like arm-wrestling a gorilla for 22 k LY.

Yeah ASPX was what I was thinking about, I just like that snake. Why we got these high transfer cost who cares if a ll commanders are out there or not. Colonia forget about clearing your save just go there order your fleet and be broke start all over again. May as well transfer a few mods and make ready a ship just in case. Arrive order, fly to London sit at FD office holding a sign "Lower Transfer Cost Please and wait for my ship. Sounds like a plan.

*put's on the nerd specs*

That's because even beams, like all guns work on rapid pulses of damage and the regen beams are still so out wack that a few out-heals the damage from a few guns.
But faceplanting into the ground is not a series of smaller impulses, it's just one big one, this is where buffer comes into play, and even though I have as big a shield generator on the cow as the power reactor would allow me to fit (class 6 btw, really power is limiting) I only get a shield strength of 360MW.
My vulture has more shields than that..

Now where's my whisky, I need to sort this coffee.

Yah you said all that last night and it's just as much crap now as it was then.

I took the Anaconda to Colonia. It was ok but that do it again I would take my AspX.

So now that I have my Conda how I want it for now, it's back to making money. Real money. My X52Pro is starting to die. I need it to last until late September. And I am being tempted by the EDTRACKER wireless and wireless headsets.

If I get a wireless I will be selling the EDTracker Pro to try to cover a bit of the shipping price. But the new stick has to come first.
