'''Raxxla''' is; a fabled planet, a ghost world, a myth, a legend. It was first featured in the 1980 book ''The Alien World: A Complete Illustrated Guide'' written by Steven Eisler, the pen name of Robert Holdstock.<ref>https://www.amazon.com/Alien-World-Complete-Illustrated-Guide/dp/0517305607</ref> Robert Holdstock published a novella called [[Elite: The Dark Wheel]], which came packaged with the original [[Elite]] game, in 1984.<ref>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Dark_Wheel#Packaging_and_marketing</ref> Raxxla has been a hot topic of debate within the Elite community ever since.

== Legend ==

As the legend goes, on Raxxla there is an alien construct that's a gateway to other universes and all that's in those universes in the way of bounty, treasures, aliens and life. Legend also says that long ago, a corps of [[The Dark Wheel]] discovered its location and lives there, exploiting the gateways for all the wealth and riches the other universes could provide. This made them powerful and twisted.<ref name=":0">http://www.iancgbell.clara.net/elite/dkwheel.htm#A56</ref><ref>http://www.abandonia.com/files/extras/29369_the%20Dark%20Wheel.pdf</ref>

Jason Ryder was a member of The Dark Wheel and said he found evidence of the real existence of Raxxla. When he returned from [[Deep Space|deep space]] he was assassinated before he could get a proper team together.

According to Rafe Zette, a trader of old, there are already people on Raxxla. They've long suspected that a corps of elites live on Raxxla who exploit the gateway. They're powerful and twisted men who hire assassins to kill people who threaten their dominance.<ref name=":0" />

Not a shred of hard evidence has been uncovered to suggest that Raxxla actually exists. This world is kept alive by word of mouth and hearsay only. It is one of Elite's most discussed and intriguing legends.

== Confirmation ==
[[Frontier Developments]] have historically refused to confirm or deny the existence of Raxxla, a possible location, or anything else about it, and continue to do so.<ref>http://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?p=143806#post143806</ref>

In September 2015, Drew Wagar - one of the official writers for Elite Dangerous - stated "''I spoke to David Braben directly in 2014 and he confirmed to me that 'It’s out there and we (FD) know where it is.' – So it does exist.''"<ref>http://www.drewwagar.com/lore/elite-dangerous-lore-raxxla/</ref> Michael Brookes said “There will be no clues.”<ref name=":1">https://canonn.science/lore/drewwagar-raxxla/</ref>

Raxxla is in the Milky Way. This was confirmed during DJTruthsayer's lore interview with Michael Brookes.<ref name=":2">https://player.twitch.tv/?volume=0.8&video=v66487974&time=1h40m30s</ref>

Question: ''"Where is Raxxla?"'' Brookes: ''"Well it's in the Milky Way, but I can't tell you where it is. It's a journey that everyone has to travel for themselves."'' Question: ''"You have said that there will be no clues though?"'' Brookes: ''"That's true, but I think you have to make some of it a tiny bit obvious just so people know what they're doing. There's nothing to be revealed at this stage."''<ref name=":2" />

A few missions from [[The Dark Wheel]] faction in [[Shinrarta Dezhra]] refer to “The great mystery”. Thus far they have been simple cargo drops and it's not clear whether this ‘Dark Wheel’ is related to the original ‘Dark Wheel.’<ref name=":1" />

{{quote|Another classic design that has survived the centuries. The first vessel was constructed in 2700 by Whatt and Pritney Ship Constructions. With the demise of the company and after various mergers and takeovers the ship design is now owned by Faulcon deLacy. The ship remains the slow and sturdy craft it was originally famous for and some smaller navies still use this class as a patrol cruiser (although tiny compared to the Imperial Interdictors and Federal Battle cruisers).|In-Game Description}}

The '''{{PAGENAME}}''' is a heavily armed and well-protected craft, boasting considerable maneuverability for its hulking size. Despite being exceptionally powerful and potentially useful in a variety of roles, the Python does suffer from exceptionally high operating costs, making it a potentially cost-prohibitive option for many pilots.

It is considered by some to be the most effective balance between firepower, maneuverability, and protection currently available. In addition to being capable of holding its own against the larger [[Anaconda]] in a toe-to-toe frontal battle through its substantial protection and firepower, the {{PAGENAME}}''' '''is generally agile enough to comfortably deal with smaller fighter classes without having to rely on turret mounts.

The {{PAGENAME}} can also serve as a heavily armed freighter in that it can carry 284 T of cargo with a class 3 [[shield]] module fitted, or 292 T with no shield fitted, both of which is more cargo than the [[Type-7 Transporter]] can carry without shields fitted. Additionally, besides being able to carry more cargo while retaining shields, the {{PAGENAME}} can dock at [[Outpost]]s since it utilizes medium sized landing pads. However, the downside to trading with a {{PAGENAME}} is its higher repair/maintenance costs and its shorter jump range when fully loaded.

The weapon hard points are located as follows: two large hardpoints located either side of the ships spine around the midship, and two medium points located slightly behind the cockpit. The final large hardpoint is located on the underside of the nose section. The nose mounted hardpoint has good vertical field of fire when gimballed or turreted (considering its location) which gives the Python a good field of fire where all weapon hardpoints can track and hit a target (when gimbaled or turreted).

{{quote|The Fer-de-Lance is another classic design that has now been in production for two centuries. The ship became famous for its popularity with top business executives and wealthy bounty hunters, being a fast, well armed vessel, with luxurious accommodation and high quality components fitted as standard. Early models were built by Zorgon Peterson, but more recently, limited numbers have been upgraded by Saud Kruger in a rare collaboration, resulting in even more lavish creations, without spoiling the original design and specification requirements.|In-Game Description}}

The '''Fer-de-Lance''' is a heavy combat ship. The Fer-de-Lance's hull is a bit more resistant to smaller [[weapons]] than other ships of its class.<ref>[https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?t=120789&p=1873136&viewfull=1#post1873136 Sandro Sammarco in the Official Forums]</ref>

The weapon hard points are located as follows: four medium hardpoints arranged with two either side of the ship, and one huge hardpoint located on the underside of the ship, roughly below the cockpit.
