Behind the beluga of courseI think my Cobra 4 is the greatest ship, ever.
The Challenger - The Pilot
- Thread starter The Pilot
- Start date
Except that it sacrifices a lot for the ability to carry an SLF. Then sacrifices even more if you actually bring an SLF. It's just at a bad spot. Without the Krait MK II around the Crusader would be useful, but the Krait MK II completely replaced it even before it was introduced.
Is that why there is the open petition to destroy them blocking the exit in stations?
I despise the krait. It it so boring, almost as boring as the anaconda
Depends how you outfit it. I quite enjoy my Crusader for base assaults. The SLF makes up in ship-to-ship combat what you lose fitting the mothership with dumbfires for bombarding surface installations.
Are there other ships that could do the job? Maybe. No real reason not to pick the Crusader for it, though. Plus, it’s visually the most attack helicopter-ish of all SLF-capable ships.
I said as much in the first few minutes of my video.
And at that point, if there's such a small difference between the two ships, then measuring that kind of change would've been tedious and a bit boring. So....will it blend?
UNFRIENDED!
Yes, you did. And then you rated the ship to be bad due to be very similar to a ship you rated to be good. I guess it's how you see it. It's plenty of people around who go along the same line. But i consider it an unfair treatment. It's a good ship by itself.
Actually, I didn't.
That might be the impression you walked away with, but that's not something I actually said.
That's the timecode for the end synopsis. Watch it again.
And it has a friggen coffee machine ….
Just a followup, watched a couple more of your excellent videos, you do seem to have a fixation on the Krait Mk II don't you lol
Again, great content, just wish the others would stop trying to appease everyone all the time and just be as honest as you are.
Well done mate, very well done.
Hmm, yea. Your conclusion was more along the line "it's useless because there are others". Which is kind of true when you already have the other ships. But if you enter this segment of ships, the Challenger is not a bad option. I mean, there's plenty of medium combat ships by now. But the Krait MK II and the Challenger are the only two medium ships i ever actually use for combat. (And yes, the Krait MK II wins out quite often. I just like having the SLF along. But that's a completely different story. )
So yea, it costs more than the Chieftain, but in my eyes it's worth the higher pricetag. I consider it a rather good ship on it's own right, despite of the bad "it's too similar to the Chieftain" many people give it. Thus I also disagree on the "kind of useless" conclusion.
In the end it depends on what you already have in your fleet. If you already have a ship for the intended role, it indeed won't do much for you. But if you just enter this segment of ships, it's a good choice and might then actually be the reason why the other ships in this field are of no interest to you.
Got it. Emotion, not fact. You like it cause you like it.
Like I said at the end of the Krait video; You should fly whatever you like. Whatever works best for you.
As long as it's a Krait...
Creative liberties were taken
The Krait has the virtue of being as endlessly versatile as the Python, but without the Python’s crippling dullness and brown interior.
Hey Pilot...great vid as always.
I've ignored the Alliance ships up to now so the vid gave me a good insight. I'd love you to cover all three in one vid, I'm curious about them but from appearances and not really knowing much about them, they seem to be the same ship with slightly different wing/thruster/sticking out bits.
Keep up the good work

Nice videos Cmdr.
