I've made a reasonable amount of money with mining and cargo from other pilots. Now i'm planning to explore the galaxy.
For now I have the following ship and loadout:
Code: Select all
Ship: Leviathan
Crew: 2 (science officer 100/100 , navigation officer 100/100)
Equipment: 10
Countermeasures: 0
Secondary Weapons: 8

Plating: Composite
Modules: Thruster
WingSys: Aerovoch MK2
Specs:
Mass Level: 60
Structural: 87
Energy Level: 69
Heat Factor: 70
Firepower: 74
Agility Rating: 27
Atmospheric: 16
Accel/Decel: 47
Fuel Efficency: 10
Range: 40
Speed: 558
Equipment Slots:

Build Constructor
Terrain Walker (YES, I got my hands on the recipe)
Repair Sys C3
Fuel Converter

Questions:
Does it makes sense to fit a shield at all while exploring ? Blackholes do hull damage and for everything else i have the stealth devices and 8 hull points for the ship and my repair device
Should I go for the lowest engine to be more fuel efficient ? I guess most of the time i'll be in INERT mode. IDS top doesnt really matter there.
Range in the ship specs, whats the meaning of this ?
Anything else you would change ?
Kind regards,
Rob
