    "Elite is not designed in a rewarding way, so take all the shortcuts that you can..." Thank you, Yamiks, and well said. Elite is AMAZING, but a balanced and rewarding "game" it is not. The rewards come from the community and the adventures we create for ourselves. Entertaining content as always, CMDR o7

    This is why Frontier should open up the game to player-created content, events, limited-time missions, etc. It's the soul of the game that is sadly missing from the base content. DLC made by the fanbase could be really great, seeing the massive amount of creativity in the community.

    There used to be these wonderful "Freelance Employment Officer", missions back then. They were rare and really hard to find, but they wanted you to find 1-4 slaves and smuggle them back to your starting point. They payed out hundreds of thousands for each mission and usually gave you 12+ hours to complete them. I think the missions turned up in Fed Corporate systems, and the slaves could be found in very small numbers on pirate platforms (the ones with the red skull holograms), in anarchy systems. I stumbled on them randomly on my first day playing and converted my Pre-Order Eagle into a smuggling ship. I had a Cobra 3 set up as a smuggler, all A and D rated a few hours later. Those missions got taken out a long time ago, removed with the first smuggling buff, when short range "take this cargo next door", type smuggling missions became super common and payed decently.

    1. Jump-a-conda - because in this game having a taxi seems a must 2. Krait mk II - IDK, it looks better than Python for me, still same versatility 3. Cobra - it does not excel at anything, but gives early game opportunity to try any activity you want 4. Chieftain - the best ship to learn combat. Relatively cheap, agile, decent firepower. My "go to" when soloing Interceptors. 5. Corvette - With skins it looks almost like Imperial Star Destroyer, and I'm a sucker for Star Wars

    My top 5 from: Diamondback Explorer - under 2 mil and you can start making a ton from exploring, highest non engineered jump range in the game. Asp Explorer - 6.6 mil, great well rounded (more like pentagon) ship, was my first mining ship. Alliance Chieftain - 19 mil, awesome combat ship. Python - 57 mil, my favorite ship, it can do anything except jump far. Anaconda - 147 mil, it can do anything except land in small stations, most versatile ship in the game.

After that, I got my hands on an Anaconda (which sits in my garage, collecting dust) before shifting gears from mining to combat. Combat, I went from the Vulture to the Chieftain and haven't moved up from there. As is, I have access to the Cutter, but not the Frigate (yet)

    So sweet, I own the lower 4 of this top 5 ships and in fact; only those. You made me think Im a pro-gamer already after playing this game like a month and a half. (probably thanks to all the helpfull vids from You, Hawkes and DTEA) What confuses me though, is I remember a vid from you where you said the cobra is a piece of poo (at least for combat) which is true because as a muliti-role ship, it is out-maneuvered by any combat-specialist ship. For instance, while bounty-hunting NPCs, the Anaconda would consequently show me its front end (woopsie) no matter how I try to out-turn it, while a Fer de Lance was super easy always showing its top- or bottom-side while I try to stay behind it. With just grade 2 engineering on the cobra's thrusters. Anyway, thank you for another amusing and informative vid! Without these I would probably already have been looking at refund-options.....

    1. sneaky sidewinder, optimized for extreme *SNEAK*, and if it gets destroyed no big deal 2. Diamondback explorer, optimized (and engineered) for long distance jumps and fuel management, this is my travel ship, can jump from Robigo mines to the other end of the human bubble in less than 20 jumps (so far, I have yet to fully complete the build). Used for personal travel, and the benefit over the conda is being able to land anywhere. 3. scavenger ship, used for investigating signals, collecting debris, and a bit of fuel transfer because why not. I personally use my old trusty Cobra Mk. III for this. 4. Mining ship, important for collecting raw materials. I use a python because big cargo space + fast and agile + can land anywhere. 5. Hunter ship, equipped with wake scanner to get important data fragments. I use a FDL for this.
