You know the sad part? If he made this video 5 years ago, the contestants would be the same.
So according to the Great And Powerful Yamiks, the Type 9 can be best described as a MOOOOOOVING experience? One thing to remember is if you put a shield on both, the Type 9 can carry more cargo than a Cutter, no matter how small the shield is.
and its .. >< so much cheaper too haahah
@@ElMundoDeHadesOK and you dont have to spend years on the rank grind
Once you get a cutter you will never use a t9. Yamiks couldn't be more right
@@timothyt1m615 thing is... you have to work your **sss off for a ship that in the end carries LESS cargo than one that's 10 times cheaper and does NOT require powerplay grind...
t10 tho?
I remember when the rare goods loops were THE way to make the best return in the early game...
It kind of broke the game for me. I thought u would have to travel far and see new places until u reached a system where u could sell ur stuff. But u basicly go back and forth between 2 systems
@@jonas7483 I did rare goods runs when I was starting out.. first in my Hauler, then the Adder and Cobra Mk III. Made me enough money to purchase a Type-6. Now the Type-6 was very quickly destroyed by another player so that set me back a bit but I eventually got to the Asp Explorer. I used the AspX quite a bit... and earned a few bounties as well. I fitted it with 2 x C2 beams and 4 x C1 Seeker launchers... if I got interdicted, quite frequently, I could drop the aggressors shields and dump quad-missile salvos to finish them off quickly. It definitely helped break up the monotony.
I'd like to see a Type-11 whose front profile is the exact size and shape of the mailslot with an inch of clearance on each side
legally requires a docking computer
@@FlatKitten If I owned a station I'd require docking computers. I'm not about to let a bunch of maniacs slam dunk themselves into the docking bay, causing millions of credits of damage
@@ENCHANTMEN_ if I were being wishful I'd like to see enormous freighters that park outside and small utility shuttles courier the goods to the station. Say 4x a type 9. Comes with a new type of vehicle bay for cargo holds with thrusters
@@FlatKitten dont fuck with my cargo space, man
I thot i was the only one who wanted a T-11 that took up the whole Large Pad
Sad we all already know the info since nothing ever changes. But the stand up routine keeps me coming back.
Type-9 with a 5H guardian FSD booster and G5 range increased FSD. 752 tons with 46 Ly range. unbeatable
I should try this out! But sounds like its heavily stripped of anything else
Still waiting on the new pre-engineered FSD.
But use a 4H FSD booster and shields and you'll only lose 16 tons and 1.5 ly jump range. And you won't have to pick up the bill every time you scrape through the mailslot.
That's not unbeatable. The Type 9 gets around 30 Ly jumps laden with the build you mentioned and 46 Ly unladen. A similar build Cutter can haul 760t with a jump range of 36Ly laden and 50 Ly unladen
@@Underb00t It is but for pure trading and credit grinding you dont need anything else. Made well over 1-2B credits without losing any cargo so far
@@Cohen.the.Worrier Not bad, ill try it out
Nice to see the Type 7 get a mention. Highly underrated.
The type-9 almost single handedly paid for my entire fleet carrier. It is an absolute money printer.
You see this is what pisses me off about carriers,
in elite 2/3 you could use mining machines drop on a moon/planet/large asteroid and come back later to pick up your goods (something that was in this game that never made concept )
But carriers is sooo much wasted potential, hiring npcs buying mining ships staking claims to entire belts (and having to protect your claim) like in X series and original elite.
Hell it could be making money I the background for you. I would love current elite to allow the base building of X beyond
even worse= i pay a full crew of people to steer my Carrier, but i cant tell them to fly anything beyond 1 jump...
Is it sad that I just want FDev to abandon the game (officially, I mean), so that we can load up a few quick mods to fix the broken crap we've been complaining about for years?
literally my favorite elite dangerous youtube. I can't tell you how many hours ive spent in deep space cracking up while Yamik's videos play in the background. Always awesome content.
Yamiks, this was a great video. Your humor was much more on point, actually making me chuckle a bit.
A few runners up - Keelback is basically a mining upgrade to the Type 6. I earned my Python with that ship. Krait II is a more agile Python that's slightly cheaper. Then you have the Cobra IV - it's only saving grace is that packs the maximum cargo (84 tons) into a small pad, which means you can dock really fast at outposts as opposed to waiting for the guy on the medium pad to stop stroking his Python.
I used the cobra IV for mining in situations where I figured I was going to get shot at and didn't mind blowing up.
Good to see you making helpful content again. I stoped watching all RUclipsrs who spent most of their time crapping on Fdev for odyssey’s rough start.
Thank you man always helpful as as always say it how it is keep up the good work
Thanks for the video.
Thanks for the research!
I made millions with all these ships (specially the T-9), but my fav now is the Python. If you do serious trading you MUST be capable to dock in stations.
these are some beautiful looking shots
Yamiks is só funny! Learning with humor!😆😆😆😆
Good stuff
Flying the Type 9 for me feels like flying a space station that hates speeding up, slowing down or turning.
Finally got my Cutter to pay for itself and used it to complete the recent community goal. I don't have A rated thrusters but the Cutter is lovely and fast, has similar manoeuvrability to my Anaconda and puts the Type 9 to shame.
Can't believe the community goal excludes class 5 FSD's as rewards!
You can buy dual engineered 5A FSD already.
I could say the reverse for the Cutter, once both are engineered, the Type-9 handles only a little worse than the chonkier mediums (supercruise notwithstanding), whereas the Cutter will drift to kingdom come before it comes to a stop, even if you try to use the vertical thrusters on the bottom to brake.
I'm new to the game Thanks for the helpful tips 👍
Hey so uh whats the text say at 0:25 where it dings? I see this at the start of everyvideo but never knew what it was.
Stopped playing Elite last year (I'm on console)..
You're videos are honestly more fun to watch than the game to play .
Keep it up my Latvian lovely ! 🤜🏻🤛🏻
Lol just got hyped to play the game watching yamiks again and then I looked and they still haven’t released odyssey for console and never really plan on doing it 🤣
Nice to see the Positive snarky Yamaks return .....
I use my type 9 with no shields to fill up my fleet carrier, then jump to the trade mission system and dodge pirates and deliver stuff with my cutter, which has good weapons & shields if I need to fight the bastards. With supercruise assist, the pirates dont even get a chance to interdict most of the time.
Had my Type-6 as a starter.
Tried to side-step to the Federal dropship, but while Type-6 looks like a brick, the dropship actually flies like one.
When I unlocked it, I got myself the Clipper and tried to outfit it for trading. Buuut was getting too tiresome to get all the upgrades while it didn't even have that bigger capacity.
So, I returned to my Type-6 because... you never forget your first love.
Only problem with the type 7 is that it needs a large pad which negates it from platforms. So, if you're going to need a large platform might as well save up and get the type 9, type 10, or Anaconda.
Great tip, but use the Type-7 to earn the money to get the Type-9.
@@Cohen.the.Worrier I would suggest using a Python or Krait MKII over the type 7. They can land anywhere, hold a decent amount of cargo, and can be converted into great fighters when you get the Type 9.
I miss the old rare goods loops. Good times space trucking.
Anaconda all day long for me. Powerful, large cargo, great jump range and doesn't need a grind to unlock.
Used my Conda to trade by mistake yesterday instead of my Type 9. Getting interdicted was a genuine pleasure after fretting over it in my big space cow for so long. The return journey saw me interdicted by a wing of 3. One ran, the other 2 exploded in what can only be described as orgasmic satisfaction! Problem with the conda is it only makes a 1/3 as much profit.
I just started playing. I'm still trying to figure out how to hotkey yaw control on a ps4 controller. I can dock without assistance, thooooooooo
Hey Yamiks. I don't know if you did that before but would you care to make a video about the images on the Exploration Map? The one you see on a website that shows how much of the galaxy has been exlored so far. There are two ladies, Among us character some dong etc. that people drew purposely. I can't imagine how much effort was put on that.
Love your videos, entertaining but I still don't know what ships k should use because the video is so confusing. Good job
I quit playing this abomination 2 years ago, but I still enjoy your videos, do you have a second channel where you post different games by any chance?
A hello, from Lithuanian fellow Latvian!
It's really interesting how everybody seems to drool over how good the imperial ships look, when I absolutely hate there looks.
Really ? I'm quite curious 🤔 may I ask why? I personally like them all but my favorite stuff visually is alot of the Federal stuff but that's just me
@@fellowasp6768 Personal aesthetic choice. I do not like sleek looking space ships. The federal ships to me are great. I like hard angles and straight lines for my ships. I also just hate the engine pods they add to their ships. I hate that design in general not just in ED. The Imperial interdictor is just ugly beyond get out, it makes for a better space station then a ship. I get they want works of art as ships, but it just does not translate well into ship design. Now, the Saud Kruger line up is the exception because they are suppose to be space cruise liners. I do get the complaint of all the wedge shaped ships, but guess what, for a space ship, that is one of the best designs for it.
I actually have used the Type 7 yaw speed. When I was running multiple contracts at once and I knew I was going to get interdicted, I can actually escape by moving in the Yaw. Type 9 cow could not, and I've lost cargo because of that...
Yea I just slapped one of my prismatics on my type 9. When I get interdicted I just submit and get back into supercruise while they barely scratch the shield
Hot tip: if you're running contracts between systems, when you drop from hyper into SC next to the target star, position yourself with your ass nice and snug into the star, nose facing directly away. Wait about a minute, you'll see the NPC ships plow straight into the sun trying to line you up for interdiction. Once you see all the likely suspects swooping back around behind and Icarus their ships, motor on over to where you need to go. 👍
@@masondegaulle5731 Very nice tip, I’ll do that when I get the Type-9. Just a bit more trades and I’ll be able to get one.
I just found this game and I am hooked I am still in the noob area
I also can recomend Krait for Core Astroid mining
Ahh the nostalgic music
1 Get a ASP do trading
2. skip type 6 - 7, python and anything in between. buy a type 9
3 do more trading/mining
4 get 500 mill and think u got enough for a Cutter with some decent outfitting
5 realise u need 1billion more for a good cutter
6 sell cutter. buy Anaconda and get all A grade for around 500 mill
7 do combat(aka finally have some fun after 100+ hours) get 1bill, buy cutter.
8 finaly get your cutter A grade
9 be happy for a hour untill u realise, the grind for engineering is even more time consuming grind fest
10. Exit game and maybe try to like it again in a few months
Sounds like you doing something wrong.
I figured that Yamiks smokes a hell lot of trees long before I knew what he would look like.
Great video!
I prefer this format than the rant videos where you nitpick on everything bad about the game and it's devs; as much fun as some of those videos were, there's already enough negative Nancy's in the ED community.
Thumbs up!
Hey Tamiks - ObsidianAnt did a bit on Star Atlas, i would LOVE to see you rip blockchain gaming and ship prices LOL
It's not necessarily about carrying as much as possible. You load up 720 tons and can jump a massive 12-18 ly with a G5 fsd! My cutter can jump 33 ly with 672 tons. So most runs are one jump.
Im disappointed the Type 8 is not on this list...
The Anaconda makes a great trade ship. It doesn't carry as much as he Type-9 or Cutter but it is way more fun to fly. If I want to relax as the captain of a tramp steamer, the Anaconda is the way to go.
Sweet now all we need is a reason to mine or trade.
What hurts the most is that I want to love Elite. I had a good time for a while. The grind is just ridiculous and mind numbing. OVR can only do so much.
The first time you get interdicted in that T-6 you'll be wishing you had spent the extra for the Asp-X. Much the same for the T-7 vs the Python.
Just started mining with the Keelback as I wanted to also try the Ship-Launched fighters, it's good enough
Off topic,
The thing that I am asking myself by now, is why do I have to farm ARX to get standard decals and livery to customize my ships
It's not a damn free to play
They've gotta fund their single hamster wheel server somehow 😉
T-6 bread box of discovery 44ly jump range.... little iffy on Strong G tho.. T-9 " Beer Run" engineered is no slouch....
Bruh why was there a sad dragon at 0:29 for split second? I’ve noticed in your other videos too lol. Easter egg?
absolutely no idea what you are on about
@@TheYamiks I know what that is
Yamiks is a Brony confirmed??
So, mind explaining the sneaky changeling at 0:29 ? Im confused about it
I have absoluteley no idea what you are on about
@@TheYamiks Right. Keep your secrets then
This is easy one. T-9 there's no better ship
is that a changeling hiding in your video at 0:30 :D
I have absolutley no idea what you are on about..
ASP Explorer helped me make BILLIONS doing DCM them Void Opals, Cold Temp. Diamonds, and other minerals/metals
When do we get NEW ships?
For me the Type 9 is the number 1 spot. Purely for the length of time it takes to get the Imperial Cutter.
If time is money after all, even if it took just 10 hours to get the Duke rank for the Cutter, I could have make just under 700-800 million credits with the Type 9 in that time. (Obviously if there is a good trade route going of course)
Of course, I might add that the Cutter is a rather delicious looking ship, and I will one day do the grind to get one as well, but probably won't use it for my cargo missions.
Plus to kit out a cutter would cost 600+ million so t-9 wins for early on in the game for sure. I use my cutter now though as missions tend to be for 1000s so it's usually the same amount of runs in either and the cutter can actually defend itself xD
Type 10 hands down! quicker with more beef than a type 9
Type-6 is by far my favorite ship. I've got 4 or 5. That lack of size 2 hardpoint is it's only downside
Type 9/10 for mining and trading
Simples
If it's Lakon it's probably decent at mining/trade. Unless it's the Chieftain where they surgically extracted the cargo bays.
I used to go core/subsurface mining in a shieldless chief or challenger, dumping the cargo in my fleet carrier once in a while.
might have to dust off my type 9
All the Lakon ships are hilariously easy to kill in combat btw.
A properly built/piloted cutter is hardly killable at all.
I still use a type 9 only because I don't feel like grinding douchey imperial missions.
I have Type-9. Is so fucking slow but the cargo capacity is enormous. I even removed my shield to increase the cargo capacity.
Now I'm saving money for a Anaconda of Imperial Cutter.
What about other large ships tho?
Oddly, the Corvette makes a pretty good mining ship. Its maneuverability is a welcome bonus for that. But as a trade ship, less so. Bit hobbled by its limited jump range.
@@waynestuart2755 I've been thinking about buying Corvette but decided not to. I'm not trying to buy a ship that is good for mining.
The Corvette's real specialty is PVE combat. It's the king of Conflict Zones (especially once you engineer the hell out of it). It's apparently not so great at PvP combat though (no my particular cup of tea so I'm sure someone else could explain it far better than I could). It's not a bad miner either as others have mentioned, so long as you aren't mining too far from where you are selling (or have a friendly carrier). It's main flaw is how awful its jump range is for a ship that expensive. A Guardian FSD booster can bring it up to tolerable jump distance but it will never be genuinely good.
@@paranoidrodent The reason the Vette is no good for PvP is cos it's just so damn slow! A big slow moving target. Chip away at it and block its exit until it goes pop. This in stark contrast to the Cutter. Manoeuvres like an oil tanker, but in a straight line, it goes like shit off a shovel! As soon as it's decided enough of its massive shields have gone, it just picks up its ball and disappears, and nothing can stop it.
0:30 black dragon
Will you please discover a space duck for us oh might Latvian Dracula?
quak
I just watched the vid cause it's Yamiks insulting the ships. mooooo
I don't care what anyone says, my Type 9 is the best ship in the game. You don't even need shields, just a lightweight-heavy duty hull with deep plating. Get interdicted? Ram em like a bull. Get attacked entering or leaving a station? Ram em like a bull. Don't like how that Corvette cmdr is looking at you? That's right, ram em like the bull cow you're piloting.
I mine in a Corvette... ye.
Does Yamiks have a secret fleet carrier himself? :P
FUCK NO! i'll use those 5+ billion on rebuys, thank you very much!
@@TheYamiks Yeah I feel the same way. I don't want to rent a ship I buy in game. Refueling I can understand but a rental upkeep for a floating brick that doesn't do anything other than sit there. Nope.
Well, type 7 and type 9 looks awesome for my taste. They are not that ugly.
Being able to see out such huge windows in VR really makes me love the type 9 despite its sluggishness
uf space trucking simulator
Type-9: MOOOOOO
Type-10: MOOOOOOO BRUH
Can confirm accuracy 10/10.
Who else misses mining for void opals? Its just not very fun anymore
Im downloading this game right now and I can already tell im gonna have no life when i start playing
I imagine Gutamaya designers in the game's universe would cringe when someone ruin the design of the Imperial Cutter with those ugly spoilers on the hull.
how the hell does a literal BRICK have the fastest uturn speed????
Type 10 is best.
This video again?
bruh there is a Changelings at 30 second
I have absolutely no idea what you are on about!?
living run on sentence
Dolphin, most cargo for small ship, Anaconda, best miner before unlocking cutter. Don't mine in a type 9, it will take you HOURS to fill your cargo. Not worth it. Use Anaconda and thank me later.
0:30, is that like a my lil pony thing
Still beating this horse I see.
Python, best all round trader. Change my mind.
Why would anyone try to change you mind, it's an obvious fact. Even stated in the video. But on the other hand, all round trading isn't profitable and barely anyone does it. So the python is barely used for trading.
@@xamidi Unfortunately that's one of the sad parts of the game. The original game was all about getting rich through trading, but with this version there are too many better ways to make money. So trading isnt anywhere as lucrative. Even using the Python as a friggin tour bus for Robigo is a better payout...😐
Too bad the gamę crashes on both PC and console on both regular and optical fibre internet connection whenever I try to mine. Oh well ED is crap anyway…
Lol you underestimate the power of the carrier I can fill my hold with high value cargo then just jump the 1 billion credit load to the bank no need to worry about being jumped by anyone you can not put a price on absolute safety.
my favorite, one of my nine anacondas
I got nothing out of this..
I never thought I'd see so many sexual actions carried out by spaceships until I stumbled onto this channel.. what's the quote.. if I had a nickel for every time I'd have like, two nickels which isn't much but it's wierd that it's happened twice
No LV lidz zvaigznem 😂 o7
taaa gan jaaa
guys. don't waste time mining or trading. do massacre missions for 50mil rewards
Ah yes... 1st place just as expected...
Well no shit that all the end game ships are going to be the best, but we don't have the 500 million credits we need to buy and outfit them.
Strange video, like we know the end game ships are all the best, what we need are intermediate ships to get us there, jesus.
I use my anaconda for everything because I’m a cheap degenerate, and I don’t even feel bad about it.
The top 5 cargo ships in this game are f SMALL.
Ah yes u put T6 and aspx. But not corvette. What are you smoking?
how's that jumprange in that vette?
@@TheYamiks 37 Laden with 616T, more than enough for in bubble trade and wont get shit on if ganked. like you would know how to build a not braindead ship though
Had and sold two type 7 Never had a type 6 buckets they are 🪣 Type 9 is great what was I thinking getting a 10🤬,Won't grind for space dildo if I want one I'll head down to the local handshake shop!🌊💧 Love The Yamiks😎 You make great content on any game in this Multiuniverse 🤖🚀Your a wizard of knowledge with excellent commentary🛸
