Just started about a month ago, went straight for a cutty black and now I have a bunch of ships. My favorite is either the Vanguard Warden or Drake Corsair for Bounties. I'm level 4 though so not quite max.
Since I did not have the UEC for a better ship yet I did my ERT cert in my Starter Ship, Avenger Titan. It took over 2 hours since my cert was a Reclaimer with 2 Hammerheads as wingmen. It took a while but working one target at a time I eventually wore each down. Truth be told almost any ship in the game can do an ERT if your good enough to avoid getting damaged and use energy weapons rather than ballistics so you can stay in a fight as long as needed until you prevail. Clearly if farming ERTs for money then for sure take the easy and fast path with Eclipse or Tali.
Retaliator "Don't try this at Home Kids" would be a great ship name.... I do most bounties in my arrow or Cutlass Black because that is what I have and I need the dogfighting practice. Have upgraded the QT Drives, shields, powerplant and coolers. EM missiles and fixed repeaters. So they last longer but making a mistake and hitting a asteroid, space station or getting rammed ends badly... So I think when I buy one in game I would go for a medium to heavy fighter
Connie Andromeda, many missiles means even if you open up with 4 missiles and if need be finish them off with 3 seconds of lasers to make the kill and move to the next bounty, you can do this 13 times before needing to restock missiles. So long as you don't have to go repair or anything in between bounties.
I use the Hawk, Sabre and Vanguard all the way through vlrt to vhrts, then switch to the eclipse or Retaliator for erts. The Retaliator is great for taking out the Idris bounty mission. Another trick that a lot of players use is to run laser cannons and out range the npcs, they hit really far away especially when the npc is flying straight at you, the Connie is great ship for this. I'm not a skilled pilot but I've seen high tier pilots do erts with Arrows and Gladius. I wouldn't recommend it but the Gladiator is really fun to use with a friend, hopefully that ship will get a gold pass one day.
@9:35 you most likely would not have impacted at all if you just used boost for your maneuvering thrusters to arrest your momentum. Pressu shift (boost) and X (x is command to stop all momentum regardless of direction of movement - space break).
Id love to have something with a profile and cross-section of titan, the size of the Vanguards. 2 size 2 for each internals, and I wouldn't mind size 2 capacitors, 2 size 5 gimbal on the wings, and a size 6 gimbal on the nose. Maybe 2 size 4 missile racks. 40 SCU cargo.
Why i cant lock get a target signal from the same distance as u, i need to get to 5k to get the target signal and lock my missiles, is there something i am missing?
I've been using the Retailator for Group ERT Bounties. Basically taking out 3 big ships within 45 minutes. With bonuses, the payout is about 95k-97k. Grinding away to make some $$$$$$$. Having 6 torpedos is awesome. Roughly 200k in about 40 minutes with two group bounties. Of course, if one torpedos misse or is shot and destroyed, it changes things. Restocking torps aint cheap. A little over 21k. Yikes! I don't find the ship that bad as far as handing. Maybe they fixed it for 3.19.1...?
You should be able to average a group ERT in about 15 minutes in eclipse or tali. In eclipse I have done a group ERT in as little as 8 minutes from takeoff to landed and rearmed when it gives you fast qt transits of 2 jumps per target. Doing 3-4 or even 5 per hour is possible.
Anvil Hawk is my favorite, but it requires a serious learning curve to use it for missions up to the VHRT level. I love that ship, though, it looks so awesome. With the right combination of weapons you can merc through bounties pretty quickly, but it really is a requirement to focus on evasive manuevering and concentrated fire on select targets by separating them and then picking them off one by one.
@@NerdParade I'm actually waiting for PC tech to slow down a bit, and the game is more complete. The 4grand computer I put together in 2015 will not run it very well, and I'm not spending that kind of money until Star Citizen Is further along in the buildy crafty miney things.
@@anthonystern7864 when youve spent 4k in 2015 then that should be fine of it was done well, i payed half of that 2015 and it works fine, only thing you need is strong internet
3.19. Just melted my eclipse to try the retaliator at the start of Invictus week. Lasted about 2 days with it before going right back to an eclipse. It's a really cool ship and the extra shield, turrets and torpedos are nice but even something as simple as lining up qt jumps can be a pain. Honestly I think calling it a "drunk space wombat" is under stating it. The thing handles worse than my c2 starlifter. For solo's the eclipse is just so superior in handling and quality of life flying I don't mind having to stop 2x as much for rearming.
Run the eclipse with no shields and 1 cooler with no gun unequip all this from your ship ...you will have em and ir of 3k minus 30% that means ppl will lose lock on you at fireing range of repeaters ;) ... More risk ...but perfect stealth ....you can fire on a person ..and fly by them before they ever see you ....that's how a real pilot Flys an eclipse
I do not like the Retaliator. It needs some guns for the pilot, and yes it handles like poo. Also trying to do bounties recently, with it I seem to not get locks half the time until he is shooting me with his guns and I am too short range to lock. Frustrating as heck when you have to run from a fight to get distance on it, just to have a chance again. Once you are in the dogfight if you don't have a 2nd person with you, you have no chance with just missiles at your disposal. I will not buy it again, I re-bought after the 3.20 wipe and had the same feelings. They need to update that ship seriously.

Boosting + strafing up also works.
Folks forget this ship has VTOL to help with this too.
What?!? I’ve watched your Atlas stuff allot!! Now you’re in SC?!? Wonderful!!

Rredeemer now with two size 4 and two size 3 solo-controlled guns... 💥
Why i cant lock get a target signal from the same distance as u, i need to get to 5k to get the target signal and lock my missiles, is there something i am missing?
Awesome that you're playing SC now Nick.
brooo I had no idea you played this i used to watch you back in my Ark days!
I really like the Hornet Ghost and the Vanguard Warden
Love the hornet ghost

Oh I too love the look and feel of the Hawk
Wow Nick! I can't believe my favorite parade is playing Star Citizen. Is it really that far along? I can't wait to see a series!
I really enjoy it! Lmk if you're thinking of getting the game. It can be a bit overwhelming for new players

Bombing runs make sure you have clear side of the target fast straight swipe right past them drop at 3k to 4 k distance ....
Great video very useful!
Great video man. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful for you 😀
how do you enter that missile view mode thingy?
I think you hold the fire button.
Good note, the vanguard series s2 weapons hit as hard as s3s
Has the Retaliator been improved at all over the eclipse for BH PvE SOLO mission running?

Wait aren’t you the dude that used to play ark?? Your channel has come so far man!
Thanks for this! Btw, does doing group BH missions for say NorthRock also give rep for the general BG guild as well?
they give less but yeah they do
Can you use the retaliator bomber as well vs the eclipse?
Run the eclipse with no shields and 1 cooler with no gun unequip all this from your ship ...you will have em and ir of 3k minus 30% that means ppl will lose lock on you at fireing range of repeaters ;) ...

One of my favorite!!
how you get torpedo camera?
I did the Andromeda until the Corsair came out. I just like drake ships
Both are awesome ships, but I know exactly what you mean about ducttape.. er I mean Drake 😆. Jokes aside I too love their aesthetic
Could u make your webcam a bit bigger. Idk why but if there is a webcam i like to look into the persons eyes when they are explaining something
890 Jump Yatch Star Citizen starship review Video Idea?
Excellent idea :)

hope youll be playing ARK 2 i used to love watching all your ark videos
Only the nation once known as Merica uses the concentrated freedom rods
🤣
@5:48 what you came for
Okay you use the Retaliator in a terrible way
Ir suppress doesn’t work, it just fucks ur ship, just turn guns and shields off
