Federal Corvette... Maybe we've had it wrong all this time.

You're using the Corvette Wrong. It's meant to be slid under the landing struts of your Cutter as a wheel chock

I think you have that confused with the Federal Drop Ship.

I wouldn't lower the tone of my Cutters with dropships. The only thing the Dropship is useful for is to explain useless.

U in open?

The first Thargoid I took out I took out in an Orca rigged for Search and Rescue operations.

Later ones were taken with a Federal Gunship and Fer de Lance rigged for extreme damage.

Then I decided they simply weren't much fun to mess with, paid too little, and since they weren't actively bothering me, I wasn't going out of my way to bother them.

Fair enough. I just wanted to point out resistances are pretty much useless against Thargoids.

Yep, need Caustic and Absolute for them, and even then, they're less than impressive. Of course, if you go the mass overkill method, Thargoids are less than impressive too.

I take it you're not familiar with the DB Scout or Hauler?

Just got a Corvette myself, and while it's pretty good in a fight(against npc anyway), I run out of guns pretty quickly.
Guess as it's not fully upgraded yet things might get better.
The anaconda I have though has more guns, meaning more turrets swatting the flies while I concentrate on the bigger ships.
Still can't work out which is better.
Bigger cargo space in vette is handy.
Anyway just working on getting enough to bye a Cutter.

More raw armor, little lighter on the resists. I tend to have noticed that resists can really make a difference.

Indeed, the resists can really make a difference... but not when ramming or being rammed.

Maybe it is just me, but when I look at the values with resistances considered, they appear to be higher.

Indeed, but collisions are doing absolute damage, resists does not matter
Same goes for Plasma weapons, also absolute damage

Right, my built also excels in that. Have you actually looked at it?
