Wait, what? You just created a post on the forum to brag about your Cutter's survivability, then say that you will combat log out of the game if someone decides to test your claim? I'm no PvP'er by a long shot, but when I fly in Open I accept that I might be attacked. If I manage to escape to supercruise / hyperspace THEN I will consider swapping modes (menu logging) - if I can't escape then fair play, I get blown up.

No i never said i'll combat log, i said i'll do that when happens like getting stuck inside of another ship in the anaconda (yes thats been happening to me) and for some reason the game says im in danger. So i decide to end the task to get out without my ship being destroyed. When in combat i dont do that.

Either that or it's a troll post, designed to elicit salt from the community ;)

Mind you, This is why I couldn't work in frontier support. I'd be like "No you cant get your ship back. you were a total muppet. It wasn't a bug, wasn't our fault, it was yours.. Learn"

Lol, really good rolls would be 10,000mj. It's been done before on a cutter by a certain famous wizard.

Your rolls are far from really really good...

I know ive seen the 10k, now you say that its far from really really good. But tell me, how many people on this game out of all the players here, actually got anywhere near close? Compared to the average this is really really good.

I stopped reading this thread due to the rising panic attack from seeing a rebuy cost double his current balance.

I wouldn't even load my Cutter in the shipyard if I was at that stage, let alone fly it.

OP, Brag all you like, but you just can't accept help or criticism, as others have mention, you have probably made it onto a few KOS list, so i know you won't accept this advice, but fly in solo for a while.

BTW, you just don't understand Mines with Reverberating Cascade. They don't have to eat through 8K MJ of shields to knock them out, they will just do it with a couple of good hits! Look them up!

Then i suppose if you lose ur shields you will just kill the task, as you have already admitted in this very thread. With that Ethos and your way of playing the game, you truly are the 'Untouchable' you claim to be.

Fly Safe and Fly with your finger poised over the Kill Task button (Or pull network cable out).

What ever!

Do you know why im not worried and why im actually pretty confused as to why people are so salty? Because, if i so pleased. I could go crash my ship into a planet and still not care. Ive unlocked everything i wanted, ive gotten everything ive wanted so far, and ive managed to amass a good knowledge base of great systems to go to in order to make a decent amount of money. Im not worried because i know i can get it all back. Its not like once i lose it, its gone forever. People seem to forget that this is a GAME with regenerating income. Just takes some effort. This is why im so dismissive and not worried. So while everyone is g out, im over here laughing my butt off and accepting of the challenge this games come with.

Also to make you all just grit your teeth, im now flying my cutter without shields :p

That has actually been happening to me too a fair bit lately! Especially annoying when another ship spawns on you when leaving, as soon as I get released from the dock my ship gets catapulted across the station.

It's gotten to the point where I use the free camera to do a walk around before departing. Funny how a ridiculous bug like two ships being stuck inside each other manages to actually improve realism :D

Compared to average your almost certainly correct. Personally though, I have a fairly low opinion of what a lot of people seem to be satisfied with.

With regard to the shield value, hd boosters are not a particularly difficult mod to get good results. I have many 64%+ boosters spread over my ships with several 66%. The difficult roll is the g5 reinforced for the shield, to get the secondary required. I don't use reinforced, preferring thermal resist, but the mats for g5 reinforced are all easy to get, 2 can be farmed at davs hope.

Hence why I think 10,000 is very very very good as you put It, and 8000 is readily achievable with moderate effort.

The 10K shield value was the result of exploiting and cheating. So for the purpose of comparison and rolls that are within the realms of normality it should be discounted.

Thermal Res is way to low. Every guy with engineered Lasers will melt your Shield like its non existant. Try raising all your Resistances to 50% wich is softcap.

While that is true, given the relative ease of gathering the mats involved in the mod, certainly compared to most other g5 mods, if a player dedicated as much time as I have say, to dd5 rolls (500+), 8000 would almost certainly be improved significantly. As to the 10000 value, I have no idea how many rolls that took, but it is there. Some lucky player could get it first roll. To ignore a possible max because of the method it was attained, does not change the fact that it is the max.

so yeah, if it did then tell me why ive had people attack me, and before i jumped i didnt even notice a difference in my shield although they were shooting me for a good 10 seconds? If they melted my shields like they were non exsistant, then i wouldnt be sitting here with a cutter right now.

Hang on, so you jump at the first sign of trouble and you call your ship the War Cutter - should be called the 'Tanked Runaway Cutter' lol

Sounds like what you’re describing is an armoured transport, not a war cutter. It buys you the time you need to run so you can get cargo from A to B. So a blockade runner, perhaps? Totally valid role, just not a combat ship and certainly not a “War Cutter”.
