I thought it was one shot for the shield and then you’re toast…You can get 5 with the Bigger Magazine engineering - though frankly if you need more than one shot you're doing it wrong

I thought it was one for the money, and two for the show...?I thought it was one shot for the shield and then you’re toast…
I may be wrong though...
If you don't mind getting "up close & personal" the plasma 'shotgun' at G3+ can certainly be a "one shotter"...I thought it was one shot for the shield and then you’re toast…
One for the money, two for the show, I've also got a rocket launcher, watch the crater glow.
It's a sniper rifle - if they have their shields up then you aren't being stealthy enoughI thought it was one shot for the shield and then you’re toast…
Or ran out of shield breaker grenades?It's a sniper rifle - if they have their shields up then you aren't being stealthy enough
Honestly the only weapons I even find a use for are the Executioner and the L6. The others are ... unimpressive.
Can't wait to be able to upgrade the scope on both. But the grind to unlock the engineers for it...!
Remind me not to upset you!

Gosh, I'm sorry that's the assumption you have of me! I thought I was doing real work, if I'm honest with you, but do let me know how I can try harder if this isn't working out!
To help you understand a little more about the role maybe:
I'm a community manager here at Frontier for Elite Dangerous.
- I'm here to engage and interact with you all across as many social platforms as possible, reacting to feedback, collecting information on issues and feeding that back to development teams for them to understand how to tackle further steps needing to be taken as part of developing the game further.
- As CMs we are the "voice of sentiment" back to internal stakeholders and even have little meetings on how we can help improve player experiences based off our feelings from you all.
- I also appear on and help plan livestreams with the team as another method of engagement.
- Also as part of the team we maintain other things like...content for newsletters, community initiatives like Stellar Screenshots, Commander Creations, things like that which are unrelated to issues and feedback. Basically flavouring the game experience with additional community content.
- I speak daily with QA and development teams to understand the current status of the game, coordinate how we message any updates and action those accordingly when needed (think of the patch notes).
- Lots of other things but I don't want to turn this into my LinkedIn profile.
I mean if that's not considered "real work" to you Commander then I'm afraid I don't have anything else to back myself up with :')

England are doing pretty decently aren't they? I'll say...2-2 draw.
Regarding the other questions - not coming from me in a casual thread response I'm afraid. They need something much more fitting and important standing for you all. We'll keep pushing toward answers!
Ah yes, a G5 Executioner and the perfect alignment of NPC with a barrel
The Tormentor (pistol) is rather useful too!
Grind? I'm 'just playing' and doing stuff I find fun and progressing reasonably well... Although I think the mat requirements for Odyssey upgrades are totally 'over-the-top-stupid' and will pick up the last couple of bits of data for both long-range and reduced tool consumption then stop, otherwise I will feel like I'm imposing "GRIND" on myself. No doubt in a few months I'll have another upgrade or two in stock
(but as my other account is in Colonia I have had to come back to the bubble to do engineering in Odyssey!)
I play mostly with the Tormentor (Noise Suppressor, Stability, Range, Stowed Reloading)
My other 2 weapons are an Executioner (Audio Masking, Scope, Magazine Size, Stowed Reloading) and an L6 (Audio Masking, Magazine Size, Improved Handling, Stowed Reloading)
And my other other weapon is an Intimidator (Scope, Magazine Size, Improved Hip Accuracy, Range)
I tried a G5 Aphelion, but trying to aim those many headshots needed to kill someone, makes one vulnerable to enemy snipers.
Sadly the engineers the scope is done by require either lots of settlement defence plans and multimedia on one path, or Terra and her dubious not-always-counted covert missions on the other.The Tormentor (pistol) is rather useful too!

(And you try doing a covert theft with a rocket launcher.)
I suppose you could if you could apply Audio Masking...? Maybe?
You should be doing those with no weapons at all
And they are perfectly doable (quite easy actually) if you pick threat 3 missions.
I’m sorry we have to trash you later this week. No hard feelings, it’s just a game.
S the DaneNice although Audio Masking a rocket launcher is an interesting choice. How different is the Scope mod from the standard scope on the Executioner?

That's something we should have - anti-personnel mines we can set traps with
