This channel is my favourite subscription this year...amazing info, presented in an easy to understand way. Keep up the good work, Avenger :) Now excuse me, I have to rebind my Constellation Alpha :p
@@Avenger__One That's insane. I recently found your channel and my dogfighting skills have skyrocketed since I started practicing your lessons. Thank you sir!
It's great watching you fly. You have an intermate understanding of the flight and combat mechanics which I'm also glad you share with everyone. It would appear the meta is in flight control more than ship configuration. Can't wait to play again, its been far too long.
I just somehow managed to bind all power settings to 2 mouse buttons (thumb buttons). Thumb 1 = Tap: Weapons 100%, Double-Tap: Shields 100% Thumb 2 = Tap: Reset, Double-Tap: Thrusters 100% I never realized what a huge difference it makes.
ayeeee just what i was looking for. man i hope i run into in the verse sometime. ide wanna do a deathmatch on the spot if i ran into you, to see how hard these guys have been having it fighting you. it looks like a nightmare being on your 12 lol
Considering picking up a proper 6dof control setup and getting into this game, glad to have a good guide! I'm swapping over from squadrons so hopefully the power management transition will be easy lol.
I've been avoiding the PVP scene before now because I thought the game would change significantly before release, making most of the skills learned basically useless. You're doing a pretty good job of changing my mind though; I'm actually thinking about trying to influence the community I help lead to train more for PVP. I certainly wouldn't mind training with you and your guys as well, to hopefully build good habits. I've spent far too much wasted time flying against NPC's to farm aUEC or REC, I need the challenge of facing other players to hone my skills to prepare for more serious/higher stakes gameplay. Can I ask why you fly in the PU rather than AC?
He is nearly only flying in AC. At least in his steams. But he sometimes has fights in the PU too! I guess AC content might be too boring bcs he is wiping off everyone :)
Hi Avenger__One, great series and super useful for me. I have a question; how do you know there's a 30% resistance added when you switch to shields and lastly, is it still the case, 1year later? thank you in advance for your help
I have a question: are you a real pilot? Mate you speak like a true professional. Where did you learned all of this? Because of your videos I bought 2 sticks and now I am mostly in arena to try and dance. Still hard but I hope in a couple of years to learn :D. If you fo any private lessons please take my money.
the delay to charge guns is the cooldown so to speak. its there for a reason part of the mechanic and shouldnt be moved because you feel it doesnt feel good.
So to summarize the power profiles used, its either 100% to power, 100% to weapons, or 100% to shields. Is there any scenario where you are using a power distribution different than those three modes?
It can be argued that when ur in a massive battle and ur in a hammerhead u cant afford to direct power to guns or shields fully. As ur taking sustained fire and dealing sustained dammage to the enemy. So a 50/50 approach is better between shields and guns as engines in a massive ship essentially cant beat a fighters but ur essentially allowing ur 5 guns tl have effective shots. But this assumes there are like 10v10 essentially. In a 1v1 u can afford to specilize between the two due tl the buffs it gives.
I don't understand what is going on with your pip. It doesn't seem to always be where it should and you are rarely firing towards it yet you're still hitting your target. What is happening here?
I see no one answered you. There is an option to change from a LEAD pip (which you describe) to a LAG pip, which he is using. Lead pip shows where you need to point, a lag pip shows where your bullets will land.

Same here! I went from being a shit pilot to actually surviving HRT pve fights! :D
It’s astounding just how much control you maintain during a fight. Awesome video A1, great content as usual!
Did you just... dumb-fire a S9 into that Hammerhead at the start? That was nuts!
Yes sir ;)

Holy shit amazing

" It would appear the meta is in flight control more than ship configuration." ....It would indeed.
Best channel for space combat training! I didnt know all this about the power management or that you could key-bind the 100%
Very informative and edifying coaching video, thanks A1!
Thanks for this! I have really been considering what was best. This clears it all up.
I just somehow managed to bind all power settings to 2 mouse buttons (thumb buttons).
Thumb 1 = Tap: Weapons 100%, Double-Tap: Shields 100%
Thumb 2 = Tap: Reset, Double-Tap: Thrusters 100%
I never realized what a huge difference it makes.
imagine using your full ships potential makes a huge difference wow!
Thanks for the info much appreciated everytime , who knew all we needed was some mamagmication for better pvp
Nice, updates appreciate the tips I was splitting power between units.. So thats good info.
So much great information, even beyond the power management, many thanks for such great quality content again. Much love to you and Grogu 💌
Another top tier video 👍

Love your guides!
Practiced this earlier. I need to work on it more. I am a bit to used to Elite Dangerous style.
Gold!

@@lukasTHEwise Fair enough, I don't generally watch streams but most of the YT content has been PU footage.
I fly the first 2 hours on twitch streams exclusively in AC, but I like the PU because you never know what's going to happen, and death is on the line
Hi Avenger__One, great series and super useful for me. I have a question; how do you know there's a 30% resistance added when you switch to shields and lastly, is it still the case, 1year later? thank you in advance for your help
Are manned turrets affected by power management? Thanks for videos best SC combat content out there.
no they are not, cept the Super hornet
So 100% guns all the time with laser cannons on a 600i got it!
Ka'Plaa
I'm on the side that says, I do not need drama in Star Citizen.
TLDR: Keep power on 100 % for shields in fights and use power to weapons basically only as a reload button when mags at depleted.
I am an extreme beginner and I cannot tell you how much this help how many times a die when trying to do harder bounties
Another one. Always learning. 1% everyday.
Shields should start regen slow then spool up faster to max charge rate overtime
We'll call it Tatooine from now on, dafuq is damar lol
So has the recharging mechanic changed since this video was made? great vid btw, and series.
Is this still true after 1 year? (shield resist bonus and charge rate, weapon charge rate)
Great video and good advice. Do you ever switch back and forth between lag and lead pip?
Very rare
@@Avenger__One thanks for the reply. Learning a lot. Hopefully I can get better at dog fighting. Hope to see you in the verse again.
Great video!

Does power management still work this way in 3.19? i.e. system recharge timers?
Did you play SW squadrons? It had the old xwing style power triangle. Similar concepts here
I played it professionally
Is this still true for 3.17 and 3.18?
is this still the case in 3.18.1? the shield recharge thing

is that a typo in the title or does mamagment mean something? lol
How do you find so many people to pvp against? I can’t really find anyone
Offer half a million aUEC FOR MY kill and watch even the most docile carebear turn into a blood thirsty monster
@@Avenger__One that makes sense lol
Do you feel this is still current with 3.17.1 ?
Is this video still relevant in 3.17.2?
is this still true in 3.17.1?
Hey avenger on your arrow what 4 guns do you run?
4x repeaters
@@Avenger__One thank you!
Are you using Gimbal weapons?
Dont think so. The turret is but the turret cant be removed anyway.
No I'm using fixed, but fixed will still fix assist within 1 degree
I don't understand what is going on with your pip. It doesn't seem to always be where it should and you are rarely firing towards it yet you're still hitting your target. What is happening here?
I see no one answered you. There is an option to change from a LEAD pip (which you describe) to a LAG pip, which he is using.
Lead pip shows where you need to point, a lag pip shows where your bullets will land.
What ship is that?
100% shields use game mechanics
imagine talking about boost when its actually BOOF
how do you find out these things??? like that shields is 30 resist with 100power>?
also notice your not shooting at the pip
He is using a different type of pip that you aim with the pip, instead of aiming at it. It is a lag pip
Practiced this earlier. I need to work on it more. I am a bit to used to Elite Dangerous style.
