Pirates and looting

[Eplox]

Hi, is there a way to bookmark a locations where I destroy haulers with more loot, higher than my current cargo capacity?
If not, do you recommend any ships with decent cargo capacity along with good firepower?

The Cobra MKIII

No waypoints yet.
Isn't the ASP the holy middle ground of Firepower and cargo capacity?

No there is no way, cargo also degrades over time and despawns when you get too far off.
10 km is rumored to be the sweet spot for it to despawn.

But very expensive. You can get a cobra up to 32 tons cargo and ready for navpoints / extraction sites for less then 1 million.

It can despawn in 6-7 minutes even if you are there.

Thanks for the info, I'll try the cobra and see how it goes from there.

I removed my shields and used that slot for additional cargo rack. But you need to fly carefully.
You can also use a lower size shield component in the lesser slot I believe. so long as the thing covers the mass of the ship.
If you feel too nekkid...

For piracy on NPCs a cheap cobra with 32 tons and d-c internals is o.k.
When you get lucky you can make around 100 k per run, if you loot palladium or rares.

Type 6. Heaps of room, 3 utility mounts, and its much faster then people think.
Only 2 gun mounts, but thats enough to strip the shields from NPCs.

Lots of room for limpets if you prefer to use them too.

I wouldn't recommend the Lakon 6 for starting pirates, it lacks maneuverability
and needs some training regarding piracy.
Yet the Lakon 6 can be quite some fun pirating or even bounty hunting.

If you fancy hatch busting it isn't wrong to use a gimballed cannon and a laser to break the shields.
Works wonder

Cobra III is a good all round ship for sure. I have 40 tons of space. I removed discovery scanner. Do not advise removing the shields ever you can be hunted too
