Title: Next ship ??...
Post by: RogueTaylor on October 22, 2015, 06:51:53 PM
Hi there again, I want to know about what ship I should be looking for or what path I should start to take. At the moment I do bounty hunter and go to resource extraction sites and go kill some bad people haha I am using a vulture as you know that I think is the best I can get it but might be wrong. I want to know if I should stay as a combat pilot or change to trade ? And what ship should I look at saving up for next ? Sorry to be a pain guys :) but thanks for reading and any help/ advice you got

With the income from a Vulture you could easily get a Cobra as a mining ship or a Diamondback Explorer for, well, exploration.

The Type 6 is a good basic trade ship, so you might want to try a combination of exploration and trade. If you take to it, then after the type-6 a type-7, then Clipper or Python before a Type-9 or Anaconda would be the trade-ship upgrade path.

So you are a pure trader then ? I guess you mostly trade and that's it ? It's something I haven't put much thought into and might need to, I have always gone for combat with my friend but maybe have to look into it

Nope. My primary ship is a Python.

I have tried bounty hunting (done a LOT of that), exploration although not recently, started out a trader for the most part, but I'm 52% to Elite combat rank, so no - mostly combat. Least used career path? Mining.

Ow...fair play then haha I like how you have tried everything. So what do you think is a smart idea to do then ? Focus on bounty hunting and combat and try to get a python ? And the. Suit that for combat or you think it's smart to try new thing ? My friend tryed mining and thought it was boring and wasn't that good

I suggest you go to Guest City and start picking up dMw Alliance missions for which you will be richly rewarded by Ambassador Arithon with the gift of a fully pimped Python :)

I'm there now and it's a fine sight to see.

Can't do a Python as a package, but I can get you to a finance level where you can buy one from combat alone.In a week.
