Hi, I just wanted to say that I always enjoy your videos for many reasons, but among them are 1) you're always so measured and polite - no "What's up jerks?" but rather "Hello ladies and gentlemen and welcome", love that; 2) always full of good, interesting, relevant and as I've said before measured opinions and analysis (just recently I really enjoyed the under-the-hood shield maths); 3) you seem to love the game I love even more than I love it and as a long term player with often not a great amount of opportunities to play, it does my heart good to touch base with someone who makes me feel that ED is still being appreciated so much (for similar reasons I also watch The Buur Pit, OA, DigThat32, The Pilot, good old sweary Yamiks and so on but I really appreciate your particular angle of approach) so thanks D2EA, keep up the good work.

tip: once you unlocked both Felicity Farseer and Elvira Martuuk, pin engines-3 (=thrusters, clean/drag drive for exploration/combat play) at Felicity (and FSD range at Elvira) as you won't have access to better thruster mods until Colonia (22k ly).

Thanks for this very informative and well-structured video, I completely forgot about blueprint-pinning since I tried it out a long long time ago as you could only pin one BP in total and so I struck this option with pinning from my mind, will use this more in the future. Will use increased FSD range, dirty drives and overcharged PP a lot more now!

@markhackett2302 4 года назад

If you're going to use combat heavy ships, get weapon enhanced. You pewpew a lot more with it and, especially for the Mamba and Viper, you won't be boosting much in combat. Shooting for 2-3 times longer with gimbals is super sweet. If you're going fixed, weapon charge isn't as important, and the drain from turrets so low it doesn't really matter if you go heavily either of those two, but if you run gimbals mostly, especially if you use lateral thrust to keep off axis and therefore stay out of fixed guns of the opponent, gimbals allow you to ignore chaff since you can fire pretty much nonstop anyway.

@Kissamiess 4 года назад

Not bad, it has given me some ideas. What I disagree most is the Power Plants. *Armoured* is the go-to mod that should get Hera Tani's G5 pin. It both increases the power generation and improves heat efficiency. What's not to like? Overcharged, in my opinion, should be avoided and used on as low grade as you can get away with if you do have to use it. Therefore Qwent could be good for that. Low Emissions is much more niche, though that being said I have 2 G5 ones, for the explorer and installation hacker, and one G2, for the miner with an undersized fuel scoop.

@Kissamiess 4 года назад

@theKoshmeister OC isn't too awful if you stay on the lower grades and slap Thermal Spread on it. I think you can usually be more sloppy about it and upgrade it piecemeal as you get more materials. Radically undersized reactors might be an exception. Armoured often requires planning it out beforehand and going straight to full G5 to get enough power. Of course my personal preference factors into it as I have fuel scoops in most of my ships and prefer not to overheat that much while shooting things.

For FSD I'd recommend pin Faster Boot Sequence for your second. It makes the drive lighter for combat ships that doesn't care about jump distance as much.

@mangoirl6723 4 года назад

Good call, and power hungry combat builds can shut down the drive when deployed

@VanBurenPhilips 4 года назад

I don't think I pinned it, but I ran it on my Vulture at first - when I was pretty green at combat, and didn't have the build/mods optimised. Having the FSD boot in 2 seconds saved my butt several times.

@JACKxTHExRIPPER 3 года назад

Something I thought to do for the engineers that do stuff like the DSS and heatsink ammo was to just engineer a bunch of them while i was there, and then pin a different blueprint. I think I made like 8 high ammo heatsinks, then just had them shipped to my home station.

@AugustoTobias 3 года назад

Problem is, this guide is either outdated or misleading. He doesn't mention that you can only pin one blueprint per module. As a new player, I didn't know that. For Farseer and Martuuk, he says one should be FSD range and the other something else. What he didn't say was that something else has to be NOT FSD related. I pinned Farseer with FSD range and went to Martuuk to improve FSD in another way, but I couldn't. He also has Tani and Qwent for power plant, Palin and Sedesi for thrusters. The way he made the chart insinuates that you could have multiple mods on the same module, when it's not true.

@Hauerization 4 года назад

Hello DEA, great video per usual. Im rather new to ED and although Im understanding the principle of pinning a blueprint, Im a bit confused as to what to do next- do I find the right materials on planets via the rover, mining or bying them at stations - I bet its something in the line of a little bit of everything - but it would be nice t get some practical clarification.

@rhysbevan429 4 года назад

@ctbram0627 4 года назад

why ammo over lightweight for heat sinks? Double the weight for 1 more round? You can synthesize additional rounds and you can get 4 rounds with two lightweight launchers for less weight than one 3 round double weight launcher?

@entertainmenttonight5049 2 месяца назад

TIL you could pin one per engineer... I've unlocked only two engineers coz i didn't think there'd be any use ...

You should pin Increased FSD range at Elvira and the Dirty Thrusters at Felicity, since getting to G5 thrusters means going 5k LY away and might not happen for a while / if at all for many players.

I love your videos! They've been so helpful for a newer player. Would you consider re-thumbnailing your info videos that are no longer applicable? For players that have only come in to the game over the past 6mo or so, I've noticed so much info online seems useful, but there have been so many changes to the game that you run into brick walls with some strategies pretty quick. As an example, your videos about G5 engineer mats or the supercruise assist trick have both been patched out of usefulness. Also, you did another video about Long Range being definitively better than Efficient for Beam Lasers, so it'd be nice to know what I'm really looking for in the current meta. Keep up the awesome work!

There's good reason to put grade 3s in pin, you get enough of the ingredients to have plenty left over just from ordinary playing, and you get enough of the benefit to really benefit.

@Wyrnikh 3 года назад

I know I'm late to the party here DTEA, but I noticed that when you added Etienne Dorn from Colonia that you started changes with Lori Jameson. This caught my attention as a potential misstep. As you have to have Elite status to enter Shinrarta Dezhra (Where Lori is), and all ships and modules are cheapest (or nearly so) at Jameson Memorial in that system, wouldn't the best play be to purchase ships there, pin everything the other Engineers offer that Lori doesn't, then make the journey in system to get everything Lori has and add experimentals right there?

What i don't understand is i have 5 engineers unlocked all to level 5. is there not a second level, 3 level 4th level and so on? All the engineers that do Frame Shift drive seem to have a pad lock on increased FSD. but i have them at level 5. I thought once i get all the engineers that give FSD ranked to level 5 i would be able to add on Increased Frame Shift Drive. I have Elvira Martuuk, Felicity Farseer, Colonel Bris Dekker, Professor Palin, Mel Brandon.
