Meet the Chainsaw, an anaconda build with no reputation, engineering, tech broker, or rank requirements. This is a bit of an outlier as zero grind ships are concerned, mostly due to its significant price point at about 550 million credits. Calling it a zero grind ship with this much money involved is a stretch, but keep in mind that playing through a complete port defense operation, with damage on all interceptors, nets more than 100 million credits.
The Anaconda is one of my favorite multi-role ships in Elite Dangerous. With the right kit and enough patience, this ship can be effectively configured for anything you want, provided there is a landing pad large enough to take you. The anaconda does come with a few drawbacks that should be noted when constructing a build.
