Origin 100i 125a 135c Review | A Star Citizen's Buyer's Guide | Alpha 3.11

Updated Load-out ► subliminal.gg/origin-100i-125c-135a/ The 135c has 6SCU sorry for the error in the slide. The 125a has 2 as well as the 100i.

I built a stealth 125a (or 125s as I like to call it) for the purpose of avoiding fighting via sneaking around. Not only for transporting myself but for transporting other people as well. I love that this can be summoned from small vehicle pads as well.

I adore my 135c; I don't know why but I just love the look and feel of it. It's a perfect little runabout.

The 100 series fits into the Carrack's top hanger bay. I would really only recommend this ship to someone who has a Carrack, or has a friend that has one, as the synergy can be pretty fun, and 6SCU of cargo for this purpose is pretty nice.

Pretty sure only the 100i will keep the 700quantum fuel units. The rear section is for extra fuel that the 125 uses for missiles and 135 uses for cargo. I may be wrong but I thought that was the 100s use for that space. Otherwise it is just arbitrarily empty. Will see if they adjust the other two ships when they fix the beds.

Amazing video as usual. Not just the content, but the visuals and the written content. I wish other SC YouTubers could learn about visual communication with you, man! Congratz.

Two things: 1) The small cross section isn't just small. The 100 series is one of only 2 ships I've ever flown - the other being the Arrow - with a cross section that's so small that NPC Mustang rockets can almost never hit it. This is a rather big deal because NPC Mustangs make up virtually all CS1 bounties, and they are very easy to run consecutively as a new player, proving a quick means to make your first 20k aUEC or more in the verse. However, as the rockets are explosive (and unlike human pilots, NPC Mustangs are god-tier at landing shots with them) they will partially bypass shields and deal direct hull damage. While I've never been killed by them, they can easily knock parts drop off other ships (like my beloved Hawk.) Thus, this silly little thing is actually quite major for a starter ship, especially with the 125a. 2) The hull HP is very low, however it's actually slightly higher than the Arrow. While the Arrow is smaller and also has more firepower, the 100 series does have more flexibility in what you can do with it, and more range. Still, I think when you consider that the 125a is cheaper than an Arrow and has better hull HP, equal shielding, and both a bed and cargo space, you can make a very solid argument that the 125a is actually an upgrade to the Arrow. At minimum, I would not recommend an Arrow to a new player any more who wants to focus on combat - the 125a will give them more options if they decide they don't want to be a dedicated combat pilot later on. Also, an honorable mention: due to the excellent stealth on these, fixed size 3 scatterguns are actually outstanding weapons for them. Throw a pair of Predators or Dominance-3s on the 125a and it can actually be a rather effective ambush fighter. It'll never be the BEST ambush fighter, but it's nothing to sneeze at. (Alternatively, FL-33's have such a long range you can fire them right at the very edge of your detection range most of the time.)

I do plan to buy one in game as a personal transport. First they need to fix some of the physics issues with the steps.

300i is such a better ship, you get a weapons locker, clothing locker, toilet, better fire power and it has room for coffee maker/ food maker. I already use the coffee maker in mine, as it's a free way of hydrating and not having to buy bottles from a store.

Totally agree on the price. Was super excited to get one as my entry into Star Citizen, but it just doesn't make any sense given the $70 Avenger Titan. Love the ship though, but this price, sigh

Just discovered your channel and this is high quality stuff! Love how I’m depth you go with the buyer guides. Would love to see a video on the Aegis Retaliator, I already own it but would love to hear how you feel about it. Keep up the great work!

I'd be interested to see a more in-depth comparison between the 100 series and the 300i.

Just found the use case that makes it great. It’s a Size 1 ship. U can spawn them at a platinum bay on a planet. So could be seen as a planetary life raft and unlike any other size one ship that I am aware of this one even has a quantum drive so it could get you back and a couple of friends to a station in orbit.

The price is a tad high but when looking less at utility and more at comfort, I love it, it's a pisces with a bed and 2xS3. I've found the 125a to be excellent at ROC piracy

So when a friend of mine chatted with RSI customer support because of an error they said that everybody will get a 100i loaner instead of the Freelancer that sadly is gone after this patch. So we still might see this sleek little ship a lot in the verse.

125a feels like a good secondary ship To buy ingame, with good speed, low claim time (being the reason i will buy it) and enough missile to shoot things able to pursue you

I’m gonna have to agree here. The price is outrageous for what it brings to the table.

Did you mean to put the 135c as the 1st place in missile payload? feels like that should be a 125a thing

Great video m8. Would love to see a updated one

LOL at the echo voice. You're absolutely right, though. It's way overpriced for what it is. It's definitely an in game purchase for me.
