Took my Cobra "Smugly" on a few runs - got myself promoted

Also, bought myself this beauty. Now I need to find who to sell both of my kidneys and half a lung to so I can fit her properly :cry:

Wonder if anyone else is getting an annoying influx of Type 9s getting stuck all over the station. A friend also just got sandwiched on the station entryway by another Type 9 with another ship about a minute ago. Everywhere we go, there is almost always another Type 9 in front or behind us. Sometimes with a clipper on the other direction or with another Lakon horrorcraft.

Maybe it's another random pet peeve that just suddenly got more annoying, but my wingmate seems to have noticed it too. :lol:

I haven't seen any ship clog the mailbox for a looooong while. The only one I saw recently was a FDL trying to spin out of the entrance. Fortunately - he actually made it :)

I did notice the spacecows where unusually clumsy last night, like while moving thru the slot they would randomly start to thrust upwards and crash..

Rule 1: Pillage. Then burn.
Rule 2: No such thing as overkill, as long as there are reloads.

Getting the last 10% of combat rank was easy in a CZ flying an Anaconda. Nothing can get through those shields :D

I'm currently locked out of HIP because of a suicidal police NPC that kept flying through my lasers (a few k bounty) so I went back to Opet. There's a CZ 5Ls from the station. The system is 3 jumps away from Kamadhenu. It also has a few high-RES sites but whenever I dropped in, I never got the spawn to be as good as the ones in HIP. Maybe I was just unlucky.

Also - are the credits on combat bonds you get from a CZ shared between wingmen or not? For example - I usually get 50k per python (deadly/elite). If I'm in a 2/2 wing - will we both get 50k or 25k each like from bounties?

Because if combat bonds are not shared, the 2 of us can earn bajillions in that CZ since we could down ships in no time and there is no waiting for spawns in a CZ :)

Yeah they're also shared. Not sure if the faster kill rate can compensate for the shared bonds though.

We tried it last night, and no - it doesn't compensate :(
