hello it's Ricardo and welcome back to Elite dangerous well it's all been
about the thyroids the past couple of weeks and everyone does focus on the
large Interceptor Hydra basilisk Cyclops class but what about their smaller cousins
the poor cousins the Scout lots of fun can be had destroying those
and everyone starts to fixate right on the larger thyroid ships but what typically
causes you a hell of a lot of damage if you don't pay him a lot of attention is
the thyroid Scout they're going to be firing off their caustic missiles they're going to
be making a right nuisance of themselves and could typically do an awful lot of damage to
your ship's Health this ship in particular is my ax Scout swatting Challenger I love it I think
it's great it's all tricked out with all the relevant weapons and will go through the build
in a moment but I do find it perfect but going in there with your crew some of your team will
go and attack the interceptors you still got to try and keep those thyroid Scouts off their
back right try and take a little bit of damage for them tank It Up Get rid of the shields lots
of Hell reinforcements it really is good fun and you do get that good dog fighting ability
so here it is my Challenger lovely yellow paint job and you can see
great big honking ax multi-canon turrets on them in the three I got a massive class three
multi-canon turret ax multi-canon turret and in the class 2 slots in the class 1 I've got
a small one here with incendiary rounds short range Blaster so a bit of engineering's gone on
here and there we've got beam lasers overcharged weapon and thermal vent
no dramas there quite a standard build especially when you want to go out SWAT in bugs especially
those Scout thyroid bugs on utility mounts I got heatsink launcher I've got a Xeno scanner
another heatsink launcher which I've been engineering whilst attempting to engineer and
also I've got a framework frame wake scanner even now why have I got one of these well my
carrier's not parked in the same system so I'll Traverse from my carrier upon occasion back into
the system of choice for all the thyroid Shenanigans are happening all at malarkey
you're gonna get interdicted when you get interdicted it's a good opportunity to get that
framework scanner out and scan some thyroid waves because once they leave you and get out of the way
you might as well right might as well capitalize on all this thyroid activity that's going on and
claim some data core internal military grade Composites power plant nicely engineered that
you know overcharged power plants haven't done any additional engineering on that yet like
monster I don't really need it 6A thrusters drag drives and then you know the frameshift drive is
all tricked up 5c life support that gives me 10 minutes I could do better and I probably will
6A power distributor and you know we've got sensors as well now on optional internals
this is where it starts to get I would say interesting but let's face it it is what it
is Hell reinforcement packages here a bit of engineering's gone on has been better um our
reinforcement that I've got but I've got on some of my other ships my my thyroid killing crates
hell reinforcement but when it comes down to the military slots that you get with this particular
ship I was reliably informed not to put module reinforcement in the military slot this is because
I've got to make sure I get this right but in the military slots they deplete first
and then everything else depletes
so as I mentioned if you're playing in a team it's typically good to divide and
conquer of where you're going to be doing with the roles within the combat zone have
at least one person taking care of the Scouts and then have your other buddies taking care of
the interceptors yes it's a lot of fernan as long as you go over there and apply yourself a
little bit of damage to that Interceptor before it goes and you're in a team you're gonna get
that Bounty and Rubble as well and those salvation cannons could well be yours as part of the recent
Community goal anyway thanks for watching this video I've been Ricardo this has been a little
bit of ax combat with ax turrets swatting those thyroid Scouts it's really good fun and really
dog fighting like And subscribe if you haven't already done so and I'll see you soon
