I just took on an Elite ranked Anaconda.

Yeah... won't be doing that again in a hurry!

Should have known that the hunt this pirate down for stacks of credit mission wouldn't be a walk in the park! Still managed to get him down to 35% before i kicked the bucket. I could of cut and run but was having too much fun. Slightly better load out and I'll crack it open next time!! Nice to come up against a challenge finally!

I fought one earlier today luckily I have an alright viper and the local police jumped in. Easiest 190,000 credits ever

Were you targeting his power plant?They go boom with still 40% hull

'Condas are easy kills if you know how. I've done 6 this afternoon!

Shield cells are very very useful tools, as is chaff and learning where the blindspot is.

chaff ...

Yeah probably could have done with those!

It seems to me like the mission Anacondas might be different from random elite Anacondas. I've taken down elite Anacondas relatively easy, but the mission types seem harder.

All you need is to get in close, target the power and use shield cells and chaff.
If he manages to hit you with his plasma gun then that can be bad news, but if you get in close and stay under him you shouldn't have too many issues.
