Delacy engineer : "HERE IT IS! MY GREATEST CREATION!"
CEO : [flips plan upside down]
"Perfection"
NOOOO LOL 😂🤣
🤣 i fly that pan.
That’s literally what the did to the USS Enterprise on Star Trek. Not kidding!
@@DougZbikowski That's the NX Enterprise. They flipped the Akira class
Or neither... the engineer presented the blueprints facing himself, and the CEO from the other side of the desk said "'perfection''.
Ship is built upside down.
Australians: Finally, a Ship built for us!
OI OI OI!.....in space.
in space, no one can hear us complain that no one else spreads Vegemite properly ;)
@@sgtsnokeem1139 No one else eats Vegemite, there's nothing to spread :D
You’re not wrong mate
It makes it better for landing, you can see the pad better, and in space there is no such thing as up
My 3 favourite ships: 1:Krait mk2. 2: My second Krait mk2. 3: my mates Krait mk2. ..with my Krait Phantom a close 4th.
I always avoided NPC interdictions, with the MK2 I welcome them....with a huge smile on my face
lmao
@@jimmaurer8361 I was like that with my Conda.....interdiction? you're sure you want to do that mate?
@@diceman199 yeah I love the "I'm gonna boil you up!" turns to "I think I made a big mistake" in like 3 seconds lol
I had my Fonda set up for mining for a while...before current mining system came in.....so 2 mining lasers....which of course leave 6 hard points left over for those inquisitive pirate types. Mining and bounty hunting simultaneously 🤣
I hope they keep adding ships to this game, if only so you can keep making videos about them.
theres lot of ships he hasnt covered yet so we are fine for the time being
adding ships will keep the grind going and since this game will be graphically relevant for a long time yet, im guessing they will keep adding ships and content as long as people play and buy cosmetics.
@@hans007pirat as long as they dont keep rehashing the Alliance C. Lol
Honestly though I still prefer the Python to the Krait for most things.
@@Morbian13 never flew the python, but I love both my krait mk2 and phantom. Recently discovered the wonders of double painite hotspots so maybe i should try it.
We need more ships!
It has a coffee machine!
[insert heavy breathing from James Holden]
Yesssss
Drink the coffee Beltalowdah
Honestly, came for the specs, stayed for the coffee machine.
Don't forget Catherine Janeway
She guided Voyager home on a caffeine binge.
@@PrinceAlhorian Not sure she's a good example. She earned the nickname Insaneway from the fandom for a reason. I guess she was only a genocidal maniac when she didn't get her morning coffee.
No matter how many times I watch this, I'll never get over that closing line.
You can fly what is best for you and whatever you want.
So long as it's a krait.
That isn't the closing line. The actual closing line made me buy this ship. And the coffee machine.
Love the Krait. Had been earning and saving for a Python all those years ago ... and the Krait launched. It was love at first sight ... bought it, saved credits and upgraded it, based on just the initial views. My brother picked up the game 3 months ago ... helped him earn credits and THE ship he chose to buy? The Krait Mk. II, while others grabbed the Anaconda.
Took it out for exploration, mining, combat and what not. When he figured he needed a larger jump range? The Krait Phantom! That's it ... the ONLY ship you ever need.
I come back to this video every few weeks to appreciate this beautiful ship, and the second BEST thing about this particular video (first being the dedication to the Mk.II, of course) ... the music! The Pilot hit high art with this one
Truly Beautiful
I still remember when I got the game. I had no idea about Road to Riches, deep core mining, overlapping painite... I took the long route, bounty hunting and mission grinding to get myself an AspX, because I vaguely remembered some old Vindicator Jones ship reviews and I saw the Asp everywhere on glamour shots. So then I asked "Now what", and started looking on the wiki, on Reddit, what my next ship should be, what to get... and came across the Krait, and then learned about void opals and deep core mining. So I took my Asp out with a mining fit, filled my cargo hold with void opals, sold them for 1.3 mill a ton, and BOOM I suddenly had enough credits to buy and mostly outfit my Krait.
And it was love at first sight. Love when I was threading the needle between asteroid fragments to get my abrasion blasters on point, love when I was obliterating pirates at HazRes with the 3 large and 2 medium hardpoints, love when I was jumping around the Bubble grinding cargo missions for the Feds, and love when it brought down the first Thargoid Cyclops for me in Merope.
And even though nowadays it spends more time in the hangar than it used to, there's still no way in hell I would let go of my beloved Krait.
I did literally the exact same thing. 3 years bounty hunting, then the first time I really see a krait is another player annihilating me after pulling me out of warp. "I want that one."
Feel the same way
I sold mine to afford my Cutter, then when I kitted out my Cutter, I went back and rebought my Krait.
I love my Krait, and I'm currebtly trying to figure out how I can spec it out so I can get more flight time in it. I'm thinking stealth/assassination ship or SAR
This is how you know this is a good game, when a man forms an emotional attachment to his ships.
He customizes his ship and then that ship takes him through Hell and back.
@@commandericeman8588 To hell and back it does, I found a new love for mine running it as a full multicannon PvP build :D With the oversized distro and the low weapon draw, I can put almost everything into shields and engines and still dish out some serious DAKKA.
almost 4 months of flying this ship and I never realized i could make myself a coffe while deep core mining
i think the krait mk2 has to be the only ship in elite that i saw and instantly went "yes, i want this" the clipper, the cheiftain, all the other ships had that moment of "oh it looks cool but let me just sorta read into this abit" but the krait just spoke to me at first sight. bought one and have never regretted it.
Agreed. I’m in a Conda these days but I’ll never sell my Krait.
She just spoke to me.
couldnt feel more in agreement with this
And here I was just about to mention that you forgot to include that 1 important detail inside the cockpit area ;p.
As a python CMDR, I always love to see my krait brethren in combat/transit. I’m more of a trader, so it’s a bit of a given for me, especially with how closely they operate. Have fun among the stars friend!
Oh boy you took a shot at Python, expect a horse head in the mail any day!
Sexually _abused_ Horsehead cough*Yamiks*cough
XD
This ship was immediately my goal when I saw it in the shop. I fell in love with it, and after taking it on a 5,000 LY journey out to a random point in the galaxy, i still love it. Im not that good at the game and am bad at builds, so I could only get a 27 LY jump range so far. makes journeys longer but if I have the patience i make more. I dont *need* any other ship now that I have my MK2
And the T10. Many krait moduls work in the this Alien Tank ship with 9 guns , 2 good Ships;)
I bought the Krait specifically because of the weird upside-down-ness of it. The underside cockpit is perfect for planetary landings.
So much detail was put into Elite Dangerous. Little things like the bumps on the navigation beacons, the glitches your computer has mid combat, or the coffee maker on the bridge of the krait (and by extension the *lack* of a coffee machine on the phantom).
With these videos, you show that detail. You combine fantastic writing with inspired camerawork and occasionally a funny quip. Pilot, you make me drop everything and say "Well damn. I should go pick up X ship when I have the credits for it."
You make me want to sit down and immerse myself in the game.
Thank you for this fantastic content, I will probably support your content for as long as you're making it. And if you're ever in LHS 2088, come say hello, I would love a chat. I'm probably bounty hunting in the asteroid field near Tanaka Terminal.
Have a wonderful day, and can't wait for the next video! :)
Couldn't of said it better myself
Is it better for exploration than the asp explorer
Its too bad they didn't go all the way with the details. Its all just surface level
@@pixellifesimulator4965 no it isn't
@@ShenshenV2 yes it is lmao. I’ve you’ve ever played star citizen (albeit the performance issues) it’s all on the surface in comparison.
Pretty sure this is the video that gets me back behind the stick after a 4 month hiatus.
I'm just back to it after not playing for 8 months or so...even deleted my save and started right back in a sidewinder....bit of a change from the big three that i had but i'm enjoying it again.
4 months? I've been gone for about t years and now obsessed with Elite like I was obsessed with EVE back in the days.
@@diceman199 I’ve been gone for a year just recently came back with a new save and having more fun than ever.
This is arguably the most versatile ship in the whole game. It can trade, mine, fight, explore, be anti-xeno ship, land at outposts, has a fighter, reasonably priced. It's got literally everything. There is no activity in the game you can't do in Krait given it's outfitted accordingly. And it's a stunning looking thing. It's a do-it-all machine, but one that has good deal of character. No wonder people love it so much.
best video so far, reviewing the best ship in the galaxy!
"..., you should fly whatever you like. Whatever works best for you. As long as it's a Krait."
I couldn't agree more, Commander! Safe flight out there! o7
"It has a fricking coffee machine!" - The Pilot
Hear that Gutamaya? thats how you rate a good ship: how good is its coffee machine?
Pfff....coffee machine.
We don't use such degenerate machine. We use human sla....ah, er....."indentured servitude" to make coffee for us.
@@PaiSAMSEN
And what do these indentured servitude assets to make said coffee? That's right! A DAMN COFFEE MACHINE BUILT BY FAULCON DELACY WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
@@PaiSAMSEN Coffee is for the plebs, the royalty drink tea
This was the ultimate "Ode to" to a ship that I've ever heard, the ending sequence nailed it. I fly this Krait with zero buyers remorse.
I absolutely love the Python when it comes to looks, but the Krait mk2 just feels so much better when it comes to flying... also it can fit a fighter bay, so there's that.
I honestly prefer the Krait in the looks department too. Don't get me wrong, Python looks awesome, but the Krait just follows the feel of the game more for me. Not to mention it looks like it's specifically designed to glide from atmosphere and land on planets, and you get better cockpit visibility.
Fdev : "Take a ship people love, like the python. And make it obsolete."
Love your content, seriously underrated videos that truly make me appreciate the ships I fly. You bring more love and appreciation to the galaxy.
Old clip but hope you'll see this. When the Odyssey DLC gets released. Let's hope we can use that coffee machine. Think this be the first ship I'd buy when getting into the game for the very first time.
Came here from Reddit ... and instantly in awe of your presentation style! The music was absolutely on point and your voice had a very calm and relaxing tone to it! +1 sir
I already have the Krait Mk II, and I am absolutely in love with her! She's a great ship and as you said ... it's the only ship you'll ever need. Does anything and everything!
I've been slowly kitting my Mk. II out as a xeno-hunter, which involved travelling some pretty significant distances to see engineers. Many times whilst doing this I've had to stop off for some SRV downtime to gather resources to refill my AFMU and patch up neutron star wear-and-tear... and there's no real way to describe how it feels when you finish up your gathering, call your ship to fly itself over and see THAT landing near you. You forget the size of it, the figure it cuts against the stars, the sleek profile when it lands. Those powerful engines and mean lines. One of the coolest machines I've encountered in fact or fiction - and my time with it has only made me love it more and more.
Design Advantage of the Upside down cockpit- much harder to shoot out while still giving you Lakon style visibility.
Took two weeks to get to Sagittarius A to get the credits to buy this ship. Another 4 days to get to Colonia from Explorer's Anchorage to buy it. Worth every penny, worth every second.
i felt in love with this ship the moment i saw it from an npc, and i made this my flagship, as a huge starwars fan this ship really make me feel im inside that universe, huge exposed engines in the back, huge flat design with those anthens and that weird cockpit lmao i love this ship so much and yeah, it is amazing.
and its funny but imperial ships remins me to Naboo royal ships xd
As always, great video and you are right. I fell in love with this ship the moment I saw it the first time. I tried many other ships that are better in their job, switched back and forth but in the end, I always stayed with my Krait Mk2. It really gave me the feeling 'This is MY ship', something I never had with others (except my beautiful Exp Anaconda).
This is some of your best work yet, and i'm not just saying that because i too love the Krait Mk II.
But because of the lighting, the crame work, and the paint jobs. This has truely been one of the greatest videos out there for Elite Dangerous.
So to you sir and anyone else reading this, i salote you 07
Awesome videos of the Elite Dangerous series of ships, very addicting - great work looking forward to more of you work, sir.
FINALLY a video on my favorite ship!
I love my Krait MkII. its done everything i asked it to with far less complaints than anything else I've ever flown.
I don't think the ship was built upside down. When I look at the ship, I see the design team took a flat metal plate, strapped the BIGGEST engines they had on hand to it, and then bolted the rest of the ship onto the bottom, cause "Well, it fits right?"
Also, I like the way the top plate reminds me if a 'trucker hat'
Also, that looks more like an espresso machine to me. Not that it matters.. It still makes bean juice, so that's all you really need right?
the coffee machine made me laugh so hard. Awesome video dude!
I really need to get myself one of these ships! Thank you for another awesome vid, I always look forward to Tuesdays
It's really a wonderful boat. I was so happy when I could get my first Krait MkII and it REALLY does EVERYTHING. I took it to mining runs, I took it to combat, I jumped across the bubble with it, I even had a thargoid hunting fit for it. This thing is absolutely amazing, the same versatility in the medium range that the Cobra had in the small range... but it does everything better. Shields and hull aren't as sturdy as the Python's, but in turn you have the higher (WAY higher, I had my thargoid hunting Krait with military grade hull and hull reinforcements run 480+ to outrun the Interceptors) top speed, jump range, pitch rate, and the option to take the fighter bay for a combat fit, while it doesn't lose anything on the side of firepower and overall power (same power plant and distributor as the Python, a.k.a best you can get on a medium ship).
PvP is the only purpose I'd rather not risk in a Krait, that cockpit will be sniped by a railgun the moment you lose shields, so if you consider it, then consider an A rated life support too. D just won't cut it.
Thanks for making these videos, they keep me playing and enjoying myself while I'm out of the bubble.
This is my second favourite ship in the game but ASPx will always be my ship
ED’s ship design to evoke the reaction of “My ship” is exactly why I play the game - Krait Mk 2 is home (until I kit out my Cutter and go basking)
@@walrusahoy5878 My Conda is my home. It's like an RV. I fly it for long, chill joy rides and take a stop and rest every now and then, and admire the scenery.
My Krait is my workhorse. I adore it. It gets shit done. It's equally as much fun to take for a core mining run as for blowing people up for bounties in a HazRez. And my Vette is my war wagon. It is made for cracking the toughest nuts open, and by God, does it do the job effortlessly. Aliens, players, conflict zones, pirate lords... They are all the same to the Corvette: prey.
My python will always be my ship. However I absolutely love the engine sound in the aspx
@@walrusahoy5878 Krait Phantom is my home
Your camera angles are magnificent, and of course great narration and content, keep it up CMDR! o7
Greatest review in the galaxy .... ok, we're done here ...
I freaking love my Krait MK II and I think it'll always be my go-to ship, especially for combat. I had my eyes set on this ship when I first started playing and was thrilled to finally get it. Can't wait to get it engineered!
Update: it's fully-engineered now and holy crap! Not to mention, room for my fighter AND combat buggy? Dream ship ftw
I love this video, the music choice is amazing, thank you!
I liked my Python, but the Krait Mk II has quickly become my favorite. I'm starting to put the pieces together to make it my first engineered combat ship.
Your commentaries have so many unexpected LOL moments. And you speak as someone who unabashedly loves the game. Much appreciated!
You earned a new subscriber, as soon as I saw your Sidewinder video! I've been binge-watching this review series all day.
When the Krait MkII first came out, my first thought after going "Ooooh!" was that it kind of looked like the Millennium Falcon (Delacy). My Asp Explorer (which I named "Come Sail Away", because I name all my ships after songs) was my workhorse, do-anything-around-the-Bubble-and-then-go-exploring ship, and I was initially skeptical of what the Krait could do that would be better than "Come Sail Away".
Well.....I've now made my Asp Explorer an EXCLUSIVELY exploration-outfitted ship, and have named my Krait MkII "Money Made" (after the AC/DC song). Its main configuration is for mining (and oh, do I find the void opals with it ^_^)...and it can take out Anacondas with just the 3 hardpoints on the top (The 2 lower hardpoints are mining stuff, and the top 3 are 1 beam laser, and 2 frag cannons). It can do all these things while salvaging materials, too.
The Krait MkII is now my workhorse, do-anything-around-the-Bubble ship. I've all but retired my Asp Explorer (if I need to get somewhere in a hurry, though, it's great with its 50LY range), but for exploring, I'm getting my Anaconda (which I named "Ramble On", because, even with all the weight I shaved off of it, it still handles like a lead zeppelin) ready for heading out hopefully soon.
o7, Cmdr!

I bought this ship as my 2nd one and Ive been completely in love with it for a long time now, the cabin placement is actually really helpful, you can see in so many directions. I was gonna save for an corvette but I’ll never stop using the krait mk2.
Beautifully thought and delivered. Thanks!
I love that you referred to the python video as a film there at the end, really lays your cards on the table as to you inspiration and your goal for this channel. And I say you are doing fantastic in that context, keep up the good work
Oh, totally. Clarkson is my spirit animal.
I even post these on DriveTribe.
@@ThePilot_ Is that faucet yours? Or was that an internet find?
I've never felt like I've wanted to date a ship before.
I have seen your other Ship videos and just saw the FDL video you posted today. Yet, I came back to watch this one again... says something about the ship, and the video you dedicated to it.
o7 CMDR
awesome video. subscribed. I feel like you get a percentage of all kraits sold. super cool. had to buy. tyvm
Been looking for my next ship after starting with the Cobra Mk3. Definitely gonna check this one out.
Man I love watching these, cheers for sharing
Great vids mate.
Cheers from the UK.
I love your videos. As a new player who is really loving the game, your videos are a great way for me to appreciate and learn what each ship has to offer. Keep up the great work.
Absolutely fantastic job! Loved this video! :D
Once again coming back to this video to remind myself why I love the Krait. Its Look, its abilities, its just truly my favorite sci fi ship. I like to think of it as my spaceborne mobile home
Great job mate, thanks for the wonderful content :)
"You should fly whatever ship you want... Whatever works for you... As long as it's a Krait."
DAMNIT, IMMA FLY MY *G L O R I O U S* PYTHON UNTIL IT FINALLY EXPLODES! XD
Awesome video man, I really enjoyed watching this!
The multiple star reveals from behind the Krait and from behind other stars! What a cracking shot!
Another brilliant video. Lift me up when I'm down.
What a gorgeous video bro, that music and speech to Krait mk.II it made me cry. Why it wouldn´t because its my most favvourite ship from Game and it will stay like that.
I do like this ship. Mine is configured as an escort explorer. Helping to protect unarmed explorers in and around the bubble.
With a full set of weapons, prismatic shields, fighter bay, dual AFMUs, repair controller and, even an SRV bay. She can still jump 51 light years at a time and go 359 light years before needing to scoop.
This is my favorite ship in the game. Fast, manouverable and armed to the teeth. Gorgeous inside and out. I love flying circles around everything else out there and reducing them to their component molocules while enjoying a nice cup of coffee. Win!
I invested in the Krait MK2 after doing a little bit of Void Opal mining in an Asp. I named it the USG Ishimura and it's the ship that got me to Elite rank in trading in just a couple of days of asteroid cracking. Words can not describe the love I have for the Krait MK2.
Man, your content is great! Gladly subbed~
Thank you, very much.
Another great intro, keep it up man!
My current combat ship that I'm in the process of engineering based around 3 pulse lasers and 2 multicannons. Coupled with a fighter its a fantastic setup. Only part engineered but already she can run happily with 2 pips across the board.
1:47, "you get the feeling the designers flipped the blueprints by mistake"
That's exactly what happened during production of Star Trek 2 when they designed the Reliant. The engines were originally supposed to be on top, but the director saw the blueprints upside down when he first got them and liked the flipped version so much he told them to make the model like that, thus one of the most iconic ships in Star Trek was born.
Neat!
Yes indeed! You can tell that's the case quite clearly if you compare the upper and lower saucer domes with the Constitution/Constellation classes. Can't believe I've never made that connection before...!
I have this kitted out for deep core mining and the industrial looking fairings and I love it.
Rewatched the Python vid first for continuity 😁
This video is a love letter to the Krait! Excellent review 👍
I subscribed because of this video and the coffee machine. Great video bro!
When I was starting out, I just happened to pick a Krait Mk2. When I was trying out different jobs, I just kept swapping out all my hard points constantly because I couldn't afford anything else.
Now with how long my progressed in the game, I still come back to this ship constantly. She's my pride and joy of the game and fully kitted out to be the best she can possibly be.
Nothing can top it for me, this ship got me through it all, and has surely done it all.
I love my Anarchy Driver
Ending got me like ‘I gotta check this!’ Cool vid I love the krait
This video is so chill... and the song wow.... i love it
I live for these videos, truly amazing, thanks CMDR o7
Nice Cave Johnson reference from portal at the end there.
I love my Krait MK2. I’ve completely A graded everything. I could take it into a conflict zone and hold my own.
This review actually helped me grind for a Krait Mk II to use for solo PvE bounty hunting on my PS4 version of E:D. I’ve flown the Courier for pirate stomping before (and the Vipers Mk III and IV before that), so believe me when I say that I greatly appreciate flying the Krait more than my smaller, more combat dedicated birds. It’s more forgiving than my other ships, for certain. It can stay on the tailgate of an AI pirate better than anything currently in my fleet and hits like a damn freight train going Mach 70.
I’m starting to fully engineer the thing, too. Also considering going out there and hunting for Guardian blueprints, just to make my Krait even better (looking into grabbing a Guardian Power Plant, if only to have more power to play with). I’ve got G2 Efficient Class 2 multi-cannons on it to help take the load off of the distributor and give me more power to put stuff on. I’ve added a Class 3 burst laser for extra DPS alongside my Class 3 pulses. My god, it’s beautiful. The possibilities with this ship, especially for combat…I can’t wait to really trick this thing out and actually put her through her paces.
I’m rewatching these ship reviews to help me scout for my next ride and because the work you’ve put into them is STAGGERING so I *have* to watch them otherwise it’ll be interpreted as a sign of disrespect if I don’t, but…
I think I just found the ship that will get me to an Elite combat rating. And it’s all thanks to you, Pilot. Thank you for helping me find my favorite ship in the game.
Like you say, you can fly (and bounty hunt, in my case!) in any ship you want…so long as it’s a Krait.
I fell in love with this ship after your video and rewatching it again now almost a year later I realize that I built mine wrong...but I don’t care, I still hung with the big boys in conflict zones during the Jupiter CG war and also in Sirius the first week before I switched to my Cutter.
Thank you 🙏 for the tips you mentioned here, it truly is one beautiful ship!
Sold me on it..... thanks!!
Love your style of vids man, very entertaining.
I've kept every ship that I've ever seriously flown at any point in my career as a pilot, and this one is among the few that still sees use outside of the docking bay. Moving to colonia aboard an FCOC fleet carrier within the first few days of playing Elite left me in a remote location with just a D-rated hauler to my name. After exploring nearby wild systems and selling my cartographics data, I used the money I made in the hauler to buy an Asp X, fit it for mining, and set out to the places I had just explored to start exploiting the planetary rings. From there I made enough after a few hauls of diamonds, tritium, and void opals to buy and fit a Krait to do the same thing. It worked well enough, but I learned later on that it had a fighter bay in it. Once I found that out I got curious and re-fitted it for multicrew bounty-hunting... And if I am being completely honest it is the most fun I have ever had in any ship in this game. The people I made friends with in multicrew sessions and the time spent honing my practical piloting skills in this ship have made it one of my favorite vessels that I have ever flown. Now, I have an A-rated, heavily-engineered anaconda that does everything my Krait does and a little more... But I'll be damned if I don't still love that little Mk II with which getting that Anaconda would never have been possible.
You have such a beautiful way in reviewing ED ships, I'm getting the biggest Top Gear vibes!
Top gear?
@@TeamLegacyFTW very well known British car reviewing show.
I already knew i loved this ship but i like how you made me admire it even more ;)
What's wonderful about the Krait MkII is that it's the first ship (the second being an Anaconda and the third being...idk, MAYBE a Type-10?) where you can actually run a single loadout and do everything, provided you're willing to not be the absolute best at any of it. As long as you ignore deep core mining (because painite) you can configure a Krait MkII to do literally everything else all in a single build. Cargo, Passengers, SLFs, SRVs, and a Guardian FSD Booster can all fit snugly in a single build.
Listening to synthwave music while deep-core mining: check!
Was expecting a coffee comment, was not disappointed! Take your upvote sir!
3rd time watching. I got my Krait as well and it's a monster. These vids aren't just good for the info, they are a joy to watch! I wonder how many people do the same as me and just watch the ship specific "Pilot" vid before and after buying it just to add to the exitement and the experience ;-)
Was expecting the coffee machine mention, was not disappointed.
Yet another great video. I like it so much I have 4... and a Phantom. Go deep core mining, switch ships and kill Thargoids, switch ships and run combat, switch ships and farm engineering materials...
Love this ship. Such a satisfying growl when boosting. Turned mine into a dedicated bug hunter and it does that pretty damn well.
So ready for my favorite ship!!
If you had a quintessential English accent, I could have mistaken this video for one of Jeremy Clarkson's Top Gear reviews. ;)
Plus it's my opinion that DeLacy's CEO should employ you as sales director ASAP!! Great video fella!
Subbed. Love your reviews. Please do the Fer De Lance next?
Eventually. But not yet. Stay tuned though.
For some reason, Delacy makes all of the best ships (Anaconda, Python, Krait, and Cobra). You could play game with only their ships.
When we were flying this in multicrew, my buddy was so confused by the upside-down look, that he tried docking the fighter upside-down. He basically thought that he's landing on my back and flipped the fighter around. Took us a while to figure out why he wasn't able to dock... xD
Haha jingles landing
I just bought mine like just a few hrs. ago . I have a few really good ships ( Clipper , Python , Phantom , AspX , Cobra and a DBX ) all of them have there little thing they do better than xyz ship but the Krait's the Kraits are diff for sure and you know it as soon as you leave the station for the first time . Even bone stock my first thought was Holy shit why have I waited this long ... ?
I ran for a Krait 2 as soon as I'd made enough cred with my Cobra 3. I LOVE this ship and I love it even more after feeling so vindicated by your video.
Worse case you can always swap to a type7 and go platinum mining, that’ll earn you the creds to get that krait upgraded and ready for anything
Yup, same here. Bounty hunting with the Cobra III in High REZ until I hit the 50 mil mark ;-) Love it!
Got myself a phantom today, engineered it for exploring and it's a pleasure to fly. Gonna try this ship next
I remember back in 2017 when I first saw the krait. "Holy shit look at those engines"
This ship is my Millennium Falcon! Great video, keep em comin!!
Naaah, the Milennium Falcon is the Keelback, A heavily modified cargo hauler and moreover, a piece of crap.
@@carlelitz8430 yeah, but visually lacks any of the Falcons charm.
If you equipped a Krait Phantom for cargo hauling itd be pretty similar to the Falcon, it even has similar thruster looks. The Mk II feels like Slave I to me, based on specs and feel, but thats just my opinion.
@@brandonswanson6446 I agree completely. I have owned both and personally I like the Phantom for jumping and speed more. Then the Krait 2 I use mostly for deep core mining any more. I'm currently fitting a Python to replace it due to D2E's newer build and now that I have many more upgrade options. The Phantom just looks cooler too, if only it had a ship bay then it would probably be my favorite ship. In terms of the Falcon though the Phantom is definitely what Solo would want to fly in this universe lol.
@@LazarusFox Most def my dude. Happy spacing endeavours!
