Big Redeemer fan, buy it every wipe. Any time a friend goes "Hey, wanna multicrew?" I have just the ship. Agree with everything in the video, it's a beast in solo play thanks to the firepower, but not super fun to fly due to the sluggishness.
Yeah for sure, it's an absolute beast multi crew, until the big turrets take a bit too much damage and shut down lol
Its more like a Tank. Fly Slowly
Solo firepower is kind of mediocre tbh.
One thing to know about the Redeemer never ever open the door with all of the goodies behind it. It turns the interior of the ship into shrapnel hell.
Or or or... always open it and enjoy things flying all over the place
I just pull the stock crap out and drop it on the floor where it will fall through to the ground. Then stock it with Cruz. The bottles will stay put perfectly. Instead of avoiding the awesome built in fridge, actually make use of it.
@@MatthewGleedpretty soon it sounds like we're going to have to! since everything is going on the path to being physicalized
good PSA :D I, too, can confirm shenanigans!!
😆
Very informative video pal. I didn't know ship shields were bugged in 3.20 and the self status mfd too! I'm enjoying the variety of ships you get to fight in bounty missions now. It definitely adds to the excitement when you are never quite sure what combination of enemy ships you'll come up against. Think CIG will have to redesign the Redeemer's interior to make manual component access more practical. How many ships seemed to have been designed before they even dreamed up some of the gameplay loops they now need to support. CIG always putting the cart before the horse 🤣
Thanks man! Yeah it's unfortunately all very rough out there right now. But if you just commit to repairing once the inside of your ship starts smoking it's still good. And the fact that so many more ships are in the group bounties brings the medium fighters back into contention compared to 3.19
I just want to say that I love your content
ty! I really appreciate the support
Managed to rent a redeemer for free during IAE, had a ton fun blasting with a friend! Now you convinced me it can also do solo, such a nice ship! Will try to save up for it…
Cheers mate! I'm glad you enjoyed it, its a lot of fun to feel that invincible lol
Just picked up bis version, I got the reclaimer too. I have two ships now both aegis dynamics. I weren't even a fan, but here I am
hahaha yeah aegis is just too good at combat. Anvil too. Their visual design doesn't necessarily speak to me (because their ships all look so different) but damn their ships are effective.
awesome video!
thanks for checking it out!
good vid :)
Thank you for checking it out!
Great vids! Would you take the Redeemer or Corsair for a duo doing bounties?
thank you! Personally I'd take the redeemer for a duo. I'd put laser cannons on the s5s and that way the ship has 2 size 5 cannons and 4 laser repeaters with big dps output, but most importantly it's reasonably agile and faster than the corsair, while being infinitely tankier.
"if your hulls a flashin you're takin a theashin" 🤣
I felt really proud of that one lol
Great video! I am a new player to Star Citizen and was wandering what should I get for PVE, maybe slight PVP. I am torn between Mustang Delta and Arrow. MAYBE just maybe sabre or hornet, but they are kinda to expensive for me.
Thank you! Welcome to the game! If you're looking for pve and you're going to be getting the ship in-game the arrow isn't a bad choice. I'd prefer that over the mustang delta by a lot, actually. The delta is a bit too flimsy and it's got 2 of its weapons on wings that are currently getting blasted off a bit too easily. If you're willing to save up for a sabre, it'd be better to get a vanguard sentinel, they're about at the low 2M aUEC price point. The Hornet is also a fantastic option and its currently great for pvp and solid at pve, so that's a good stretch over the arrow. So the order is Vanguard Sentinel > Hornet > Arrow in my opinion, depending on how much you're willing to spend.
@@WingZeroType Thanks for the reply! :) Mustang has better shields than Arrow but I guess Arrow has hardpoints for rockets. Maybe I could go with arrow and then upgrade to Hornet eventually but which one? Basic?
@@GrubyRallyYep the basic hornet is great right now. There's not much difference between the four variants for a solo pilot so basic hornet is best unless you want to pay a little bit extra to get the black paint on the ghost model lol.
the extra shields of the mustang are nice, but ballistics penetrate through shields so hull hp and where the guns are located is important too. Also, the profile of the arrow is a lot smaller than the mustang so its harder to hit.
@@WingZeroType Got the Arrow and have complete blast. It is so much better than avenger. Thanks once again!
Ion vs vanguard vs Scorpius. Taking into account the PvP part of bounty hunting.
if you want pvp it's the vanguard, hands down. Pve it's probably the ion, with vanguard close behind. I responded to your other comment about the repeaters on the vanguard being the reason why :)
Did they ever fix the gimbals not working on the nacelle hardpoints? Always used to be forced into running fixed there as gimbal weapons just wouldn't register
yep they're working for me in 3.20!
Great video, went to but attrition 4s and 3s at lorville but couldnt find any 3's to buy, console nor HD showcase. Any idea whats up?
Yeah in the latest patch they unfortunately seem to have screwed something up with attrition3s and have renamed them something like "reigns". I think it has to do with the new storm tank - that tank has guns that have the same model as the attrition3s but they didn't want it to be the exact same so it seems like they made a "new" gun for the tank but then probably screwed something up in the copy/paste, accidentally deleting attrition 3s temporarily? I hope they come back and it wasn't intentional, because it makes no sense. lol. Here's an ISC with some additional workarounds: issue-council.robertsspaceindustries.com/projects/STAR-CITIZEN/issues/STARC-88046
I really think they should swap the position of the crew quarters with the jump seats, makes no sense the way it is atm
Completely agree! And put the storage lockers upstairs and put the gun rack downstairs! Plus this puts an extra airlock between vacuum and the crew compartment. I'm guessing they just couldn't fit all the stuff they wanted to upstairs along with the components.
PSA!!! Don't touch the drinks while flying. Had some folks partying hard downstairs while I was lining up to QT, and **BOOM**! They said the bottles started jiggling all over the cabinet as soon as the door was open, and all hell broke loose. Fun with a capital "F"
Ope! TheMNWolf beat me to it by 4 weeks, LOL. GG man, see you in the Verse :D
explosions are fun! So why wouldn't you want to have fun in your ship? :D
Okay you might have convinced me to give her another go
Yesss definitely give it a shot right now while the money is pretty free
@@WingZeroType oh I've been holdin onto my Redeemer since 3.16 haha. But yeah I've been making good money with the salvage missions, splurged on an 890 and some other ships and still got some money to spare.
Maybe this is the ship that shredded my vanguard warden shields in literally two seconds
was it in an ERT? or pvp?
@@WingZeroType it was pvp. And when I say 2 seconds it’s no joke I literally died before I could react lol
@@ifelloff7164 yikes that's rough!
What is everyone's preference for the manned turret weapons? I tend to still swap them for the Galdereen 557 laser repeaters.
I'd say omniskys for me, unless im expecting to deal with light or medium fighters, then i'd go with the galdereens
Anything size 5 and above I tend to stick with cannons. Lower rate of fire, yes, but same projectile speed and much higher DPS.
Lightstrike V's are pretty sweet.@@Sydewinder86
Will you revisit the Ares? I've found an Ion and inferno 2 man team to be absolutely wicked on ERTs
yep its on the list! They're quite good now in 3.20, in my opinion. The buffs they received were really transformative for their gameplay against smaller ships.
@@WingZeroType Agreed! I used my hornet til HRT and Ion after, I was amazed at how efficient the Ion is now.
Couple that with a friend in an inferno and there isn't an 890J or Hammerhead in the 'Verse that can stand a chance.
@@Sydewinder86yeah i'm pretty excited for this since they didn't nerf it in 3.20 lol. I was really afraid of that
I know this video is a bit older now, but I was wondering how you'd compare the Redeemer to the Corsair. I'm tempted to buy a Corsair, but the tankiness of the Redeemer seems nice. I've heard the Corsair is a bit slow at handling, how does it compare to the Redeemer?
Sorry for the super late reply to your message, life got crazy and i fell behind on YT comments. But I'd say they're two pretty different ships. If you mostly fly solo, I'd say the corsair is a better ship for that, and if you mostly fly with any crew, then the redeemer starts to really start punching in a good weight class. Handling wise, both ships are painfully slow to handle lol. You'll be using lots of boost and roll+strafe to aid in your turning. The corsair isn't as fragile as it used to be, but it still definitely is a lot more fragile than the redeemer. That said, the redeemer's size 5 turrets do occasionally get damaged and become nonfunctional until they're repaired. Personally, if I had to pick one of the two ships for pve combat solo, I'd pretty much always go corsair. The redeemer is SIGNIFICANTLY tankier, but tankiness is less of an issue if the enemies that would be shooting at you are dead ;) That's where 4x s5 weapons come into play
It's gorgeous, but for solo play it's just a worse alternative to the Connies which have twice the pilot firepower, wayyyyy more cargo, way more utility, same maneuverability and almost double the HP (2 of them) while being 25% longer and having half the shields (usually still enough for ERTs).
Oh yeah I totally agree the connie is a better ship overall, but this is also viable for those that love it :)
I noticed Freelancer MIS is the weakest S2 AI ships, while the Cutlass is still tanky. The 890 Jump can take one to three S9 torpedoes, depending on where you hit it, and there’s also a pip glitch, so you don’t know which component you are sub-targeting.
Hope CIG fix the bugs in 3.21, which is 30 days away..
Yeah the Cutlass black is currently extra bugged where it has the infinite size 2 front shield glitch plus a new bug in 3.20 where certain spots on the rear of the cutlass doesn't take damage (or heavily reduced damage, not sure). But yeah the freelancers are super easy to pop, but I honestly also popped hurricanes very quickly as well.
@@WingZeroType I’m still doing 200k beacons solo with my Retaliator.. there’s missile lock issues with the MIS, and I’d rather use an S9 torp against a Buccaneer now, then shoot the MIS by manning my top turret (the ladder animation has been restored, so you won’t die from falling from it now 🤪)
@@shawnc5188shooting a buccaneer with a s9 torp sounds personal lol
@@WingZeroType NPCs target the player, not ship… I know, because I’ve been killed too many times, at the end of 200k high threat beacons, by freaking Buccaneer hitting my character with an S1 missile or ballistic fire while I was in my tally’s turret
@@shawnc5188its honestly impressive if they can hit you with a missile, especially since you can't lock onto a player lol
Damn, I stopped playing months ago, and not only is the infinite shield bug not fixed yet, but there are apparently half a dozen new bugs that completely kill the will of doing bounties...
Yeah it's pretty rough for sure. Hopefully we have fixes for the recent bugs coming down the pipe. I've almost given up hope on the s2 shield bug
@@WingZeroType S2 Shield bug, so that's the reason I had a Cutlass Black laughing at me, while under full fire from my Andromeda. And I wondered if they somehow improved NPC shields, that explains a lot.
Damnit, the hull status MFDs are bugged as well?!
Yep unfortunately they are. Fortunately, it seems they might be fixed in 3.21? But yeah, lots of issues with ship combat currently, unfortunately :( And the fact that they're adding more backend networking changes makes me wonder if it's not going to get worse before it gets better
not the lovense connect sound💀 0:42
I don't know what you're talkin about?
Was thinking about upgrading my corsair to redeemer, mainly i run bounties, what are people's opinions?
Solo I still preferer Corsair, you can also do bunkers on it since it fits a vehicle.
Multicrew the redeemer for sure, but you may lose some bunker availability.
I think it depends on your playstyle. Corsair does straight up insane dps, but its much more frail and unwieldy to handle than a redeemer to balance that. Corsair also has more multi-role capability since its theoretically an exploration ship. Are you able to buy the redeemer in-game to give it a test run? I'd highly recommend that (or play it on a PTU since they give you 15M aUEC in the PTU to play around with)
@shippy1001 you guys are using vehicles to go to bunkers? 😅 put all power to front shields and just blow up the turrets with the deemer and land right outside it haha....
I tired the Redeemer and currently have the Corsair. The Redeemer is a bit sluggish at times but is a beast even solo. While I love the interior and storage/versatility (that is fun to look at but I don't use)of my Corsair...It's wings p1ss me off and heaven help you if you get a bounty mission on the dark side of an asteroid belt. In Atmo it's a real pain unless you keep your alt above 3-5k and ONLY back strafe.
Also landing in stations, as you know will give you anxiety in the Corsair. I'm probably going to trade in for the Redeemer also.
Okay now that I own both Redeemer and Corsair, and been playing multiple sessions with both, they are definitely different, for Bounty Hunting the Corsair still much better, the DPS is just insane on top of the current VHRTs and ERTs being full of big ships with a lot of shields, using ballistics is a must for efficiency and a full Gatling Corsair can make quick work of almost anything, plus it has storage for some weevil eggs or maze that you may find, it is very sluggish but the Redeemer is not much better in that regard, maybe 10-20% less sluggish at the most.
Redeemer is a beast in terms of shields, and hull but the DPS is less than the Corsair`s, although still pretty good, unless you have someone with you for the turrets, also lack of storage limits its availability in a bunch of scenarios, and costing 8 mil VS 3.4 mil for the Corsair (in-game) it`s a bit of a hard sell.
CIG needs to balance the price and performance for some of its ships, it`s clear that some are much better than others in scenarios that it shouldn`t, like I don`t think the Corsair should have that much DPS for pilot alone, on top of being multi-role, there`s not many ships that can do what the Corsair can, it`s just too good in too many areas, I don`t know any other ship that can be a better daily driver than this one.
I guess I know which ship I'm saving up for.
yeah its definitely a solid ship. Bounties have gotten a bit tankier so the slightly lower dps of this ship compared to ships with S5 hardpoints is a bit more of a concern, but the ship is still really capable.
if you have four people why wouldn't you go to the connie at this point than a redeemer? :D
I think the Redeemer will do more dps than a connie with 4 people, no?

You know, I've never played that game. Or seen that movie. Whichever one it is
A Crusader Hercules is better than a Redeemer for solo Bounties. 👍 The Hercules is more agile, you have more DPS with 2 Size 5 weapons (~10% more DPS) and it cost less aUEC. And you can do cargo, and launch big nuke if you take the A2. Hercules > all for solo bounties.
Corsair is a beast too for solo bounties.
The redeemer will give you a smaller size and repeater-speed projectiles, making it easier to hit smaller targets. So I wouldn't say Herc is better, but the Herc is definitely a solid contender. I'm pretty sure I put it in the S-tier in my last tier list. Corsair is solid too, but it depends on how the server is performing and how prevalent the infinite s2 shields are. Also, the corsair is SLOWWWW. It's really painful to fly 40k in atmosphere with that ship, and smaller ships with less dps easily make up the time by getting in and out faster, not to mention the corsair's a bit brittle. Normally, that'd be fine with some good shield management, but right now with our buggy shields and shield holes, its in a rough spot IMO
@@WingZeroType The Corsair has had a couple of buffs in 3.20, making it tankier. However it has a glitch with its mfd’s that cause a serious hit on graphics fps. CIG apparently has a fix for it (and a couple of other ships with the same mfd bug), but it’s not clear when they will commit it. Indeed it suffers a lot from npc lasers bypassing your shields, as it’s too slow to dodge.
@@skullhqxI can't wait for the FPS fix and the blurry HUD fix too.
@@WingZeroType Yeah, was wondering if 3.21 LIVE would have fixed it, but my wife won't let me play today, lol. o7
@@skullhqxstill blurry hud in 3.21 unfortunately
