Well, it wasn't a mission, but I thought I heard that giving cash to the commodities board at Rafferty's Mobius would help, anyway.

That's my line....

"Hold my beer. This is gonna Hurt."

Usually followed by "Oh Crap!" and if the Random Number Gods are doing things right, it's usually followed by "An Earth Shattering KABOOM".

It does, that's why when I pick up a mission to deliver 3 tons of tea to system X - I fill up the rest of my T6 80 ton cargo hold with tea. FD has been very cagey about how much of an effect it has but I suspect it's more than they let on. Specially if your ship has 150 tons or more of cargo space.

Happily blasting away last night for the BH CG and at top 15% ... those Pulse/Burst Vultures are lightning fast killers. Usually, I would say too boring, but I am doing a Credit grind to upgrade my Rattaconda -- since only when i have enough cash i can take it out for Fuel Ratting and doing other stuff in the time between rescues.

Right now, I have to change ships -- Ciborattus DBX for Ratting or the Vulture for fighting, so I have to decide what to do. With the Rattaconda, both will be possible at the same time and even exploration ... really looking forward. Good the Grind goes well at the CG :)

Well, I don't always start at Azrael, but when I do, I'm taking 720 tons of the stuff. Maybe 3 times in the last week. Glad to know it helps!

well, I was returning to the bubble after some exploring, but I got shot out of the sky by a wing of NPCs so I guess there went all my exploration data, and I made an overall net LOSS over the passed 2 months. woo.
they really need to fix npcs demanding cargo from ships that have no cargo holds

This is exactly why I will probably never go exploring unarmed.

Well, you can find a high security system on the edge of the bubble, with a station close to the entry point. For example Victoria and I used Kano each time we came back from exploration trips and we never got any problem.

Just hit Elite in Combat - now to work on my Fed rank so I can buy myself a 'Vette.

Apologies to people on my friends list who see me constantly logging in and out to refresh the mission list at Tun :D


Edit:

Not got that many in game friends so will clear my friends list to save me annoying everyone with constant relogging :)

Contributed 29.3m to the BH CG at Okinura (top 5%).
