Making money in CZ

Postby smartroad » Sun Sep 13, 2015 10:05 am

How in anyone making money in a CZ with so many CMDRs in it? I have spent a fortune in ammo and SCBs and after 20 or so kills earned the princely sum of 8000CR for an Eagle :(

I don't begrudge the CMDR who has been getting the bounties of the NPC I helped defeat - I am sure that I may have stolen that 8000CR from someone in the process. But seriously, how do people make money! I attacked a Python near the edge of the field, no one else was attacking (at the time) I managed to get its shields down and start on its hull when more lasers hitting it. Few minutes later and BOOM no more Python - but also no money for me :(

Skipping to Solo for a bit, I need to make some money to repay the ammo costs I am racking up!

I'd ask if the other commander(s) wanted to wing up. And if they didn't I'd look elsewhere and try soloing something.

I usually go to conflict zones alone or with a friend. When in a wing, the bounty is divided between however many are in the wing. Doing it solo, It's 8'000 for an eagle, 52,000 for a Python and 72,000 credits for an Anaconda,I forget the rest. You can make a lot of money, as I have. Also, look on the bulletin board because there is often a kill package to take out so many ships of a faction in a war zone.

I'm currently in Reorte and have two missions totalling nearly 700,000 credits to take down 15 Reorte Purple Dynamic Comms ships.

You aren't spawn limited in a CZ, so having good a few friends in a wing isn't a problem. But if you happen to have multiple wings in the same instance things could get hinky.
So if that's the case I would suggest dropping into another private group.

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