engineer

New console pilot here. I'm making Engineer plans for Python (PvE trader). I've settled with 2x Large Pulse Laser, 1x Large Multi-cannon and 2x Medium Multi-cannon. I'm planning to mod 1 M-size MC to High-Capacity + Corrosive, but can't decide which mod should I put on reset two MCs, since...

Just a small QoL thing that would make an engineering run shorter: Make engineers sell every item they are specialized in, please. Didi Vatermann for example sells no A Shield boosters, that's kinda annoying. Yeah, I know you can get some parts on a station in the same system but at this point...

I have tried a great number of different builds now, I have all types of lasers in any size and ran long-range, focused (great to make smaller lasers deal 100% of their damage to large ships hulls), rapid fire and overcharged, all G5 and played on a whole lot of ships, from the imperial eagle to...

Hey - I deleted my bookmark from Felicity Farseer, and I'm wondering if I can get it back? I know the map has a legend for all the engineers, and I know I can bookmark the location but the icon is different from all my other engineer bookmarks. Thanks!

o7 Commanders, I have been away for a few months and the updates have slightly confused me. Before to find resources used with the engineers, i would go to their shop and look at the Daily Herald and it told me the locations of resources in a 20 ly distance but i have noticed that this does not...

To unlock this guy wants 50 fujin tea which you can only carry 5 at a time for a 150ly trip. there no other way to get this tea???:mad: I'm supposed to just sit in the station for 3 hours? Yay fun?????

Inspired by how the windows work in star wars. When your canopy breaks, a steal shutter automatically slams down, closing off the window, preventing oxygen from exiting the cockpit. The shutter would impair your vision, but maintain your HUD allowing you to still see the leads and triangle...

Hello everyone! Today I'd like to make some suggestions for new weapons ingame that would fit into some not-yet filled niches, create new or alternative playstyles and would be just fun to mess around with. I'd like to present two weapon concepts that I have been thinking about recently. Those...

I play in a pretty varied way, I travel around, I trade, do missions & explore, I shoot at stuff until it pops then collect the stuff that falls out. So as far as the new materials & data collection is concerned I have collected a lot of everything, many of my bins are full, I miss the dilemma...

In the Outfitting at Hera Tani, I'm unable to store or swap my power plant. Buying a 3A power plant from her, does not give the option of storing my existing power plant - even though I have 20 free storage slots (only 40 of 60 used) I can also not transfer / store the existing power supply...

So, I think we can all agree that material (mats) collection for engineers is (to put it mildly) sub-optimal, these are the changes that I would like to see implemented. Addition of manufacturing companies- For all the manufactured mats such as pharmaceutical isolators, hybrid capacitors and...

My grip is this. My time is my time. When it's robbed I get "a little annoyed" The game says do this, Hear about him, Check Grind out the Alliance, Check Mine 50 units of Bromellite, check Short sentences, hours and hours of work. Travel to him to deliver this. Permit only system, in a...

Thanks to not all of the Elite community being rich enough to get the Horizons expansion on a dime, the game's MMO (not so much MSO) aspects such as Open Play have quickly and obviously become pay-to-play. Due to this, nearly everyone who does not have access to the ability to come into contact...

If you watched the stream of today you saw that they showed off the new system.To make things short. Forcing us to roll a module 5 times to "complete" rank 1 to progess further to rank 2 is just a waste of time and material as it is waste of time finding all those material. The materials...

I couldn't find a list to help me decide if I wanted to keep a Material / Data, so I built one. It's pretty simple (even tho it took me a few hours), but now I can easily see if having 30 Iron on hand useful. OR if I have any use for "UNUSUAL ENCRYPTED FILES" (only if I'm going to engineer an...

I'm trying to earn rep with Ishmaak. According to Inara, you can earn rep by handing in combat bonds. I have over 2 mil of combat bonds from another system, yet it seems he does not accept it. But according to another thread here, it seems that he does accept combat bonds from ANY system. Does...

Hey CMDRs, I've been running Palin missions at Obsidian orbital and enjoy the challenge and decent reward, however they feel clunky. Thought I'd throw suggestions out to see what others think. - Create follow-on missions rather than having to jump out and re-dock to get next assignment. - Make...

Hi. Im 3 weeks in (and loving it) however l could do with some advice re Engineers. Im currentky at Titans Daughter (aprox 400 ly from Sol). However the Engineer requirement of unlocking by travelling at least 300 ly from start is still locked ! Any advice would be v much appreciated o7

So a friend and I both were playing, and got our $100K in bounties and went and saw engineer Tod McQuinn; both bought cannons and both modified them. He got a message setting him off to go see the next engineer in line but I didn't. I've restarted just to make sure it wasn't something weird...

So I'm on a mission to make and engineer the greatest python Ps4 has ever seen. It's gonna be a heavy multipurpose ship that is good at pretty much everything. I've got an amazing FSD, powerplant, distributor etc... But i have no idea what mod to use for the shield generator. i generally run on...

Hi. So i'm trying to unlock professor Palin to mod my thrusters and I'm stuck on Marco Quent, getting the modular terminals he wants. I've read that you need to go to a high tech system and go through missions. I've done this for 3 hours and not found any. Is there anything I'm missing or am I...

How (where) do I pay this fine? His station doesn't have a contact for that.

This is my first all encompassing retrofitting I do, since previously I only improved one module or another, not the whole ship. Since I had to unlock most of the engineers, I don’t have enough materials for G5s everything, and I quite enjoy the results so far, except heat buildup. This is what...

After “working” my way to unlock FF to get my g5 fsd I completely abandoned engineers. Now that I have all ships in the game (except the cutter due to money and laziness), I feel like I can’t postpone this anymore and need to engineer a ship. Maybe I like torturing myself too. In the process I...

Hello all, I'm new to this forum, but I'm an old fan of Elite. I bought it for the Spectrum in summer 1986 and thought I would never play another game again. I also later bought it for my Amiga and then thought I would never play another game again. I've played others in the genre, like X2...
