haven't played in two years. tried again recently but as always, in this exact order, i sit at the station for 10 mins deciding what would be interesting to do, pick up the right ship, launch, regret it, dock and quit.

Pretty much my experience, too. I tell myself "Hey, pull out The Rathalos and run a few hundred tons of cargo for fun and proft." It's not that having a Cutter puts me off, I usually change paint jobs every time I log on, but the moment I'm through the magcon field I just.. I dunno, man, I just don't feel it. I'll go to my stop, unload, jump back to Medupe City, and that's that. Land, log, watch some KZbin.

It's the Mexican Wave of the E:D player. We're all very familiar at this point with the overwhelming feeling of futility that comes from the knowledge that no matter how much time you put in, the reward will not be worth it - if there's a reward at all beyond 'personal narrative'. Games like Minecraft are very much 'you get out of it what you put in'; E:D is the polar opposite, taking your limited hours and throwing them away on a whim. All those explorer hours spent hunting for and mapping cool planets? Here's a new terrain generation system that changes everything, and that we haven't bothered testing! Honestly, if Braben had to pitch this game to any other game dev company, it would never have been made - it doesn't even pass the '30 things I hate about your game pitch' test.

I just started 2 weeks ago and I stupidly accepted one of the passenger missions with a 25ly jump drive. I thought 8 mil credits was a lot so I accepted it regardless of the distance. Turns out it's 1.8k ly away. And guess what? the mission does not end when you reach the destination. Now I'm just making my way back from the trip and just regretting everything.

I feel (sorry) that Elite simply lost it's direction. It went from being a simulator to the devs seemingly wanting to turn it into a FPS. This also reflects in the sudden favoritism of squadrons. But it would be this idea that I would rather have faster gameplay then a more immersive mechanic like ship interiors that shows how unfocused the path of this game has become.

All because we can't get these missions from the cockpit (although we *can* turn them in, IIRC).

Worth noting: Whilst on-foot stuff missions are kinda bad and don't offer much, on-foot conflict zones can pay out of the ass. I routinely run High Intensity On-Foot Conflict Zones (you can find these settlements by checking for Threat Level 3 at Frontline Solutions) for my player group and a run will last you about 10 minutes with a decent build and you can net yourself around 15mil per run, the most I've made in a single run being about 30mil in some of the smaller, compact settlements. And the best part? When an on-foot CZ ends, you can just log to the menu and log back in to rejoin in the middle of the fight without having to leave and reinstance with your ship. Just relog, pick a side and keep blasting. Doing this, it's incredibly easy to rack up 100-150+mil in an hour and you don't have to worry about dying cause you don't lose vouchers on-foot, you just spawn in a dropship and there's ammo containers and recharge stations all over the place meaning unlike ship combat, you don't have to duck out every now and then to repair and refuel. I feel like if you're willing to bare with some of the frame rate issues and put a Dominator suit build together, it's definitely some of the most brainless credit farming I have ever done.

One that you missed and of course it's never guaranteed to be available are the 50mil 'wing mining' expansion missions with gallite, bauxite(I think) and such materials that can be bought at stations. Most ask for around 600 to a couple thousand of each, which in a Cutter is like 10-20 minutes depending on how slow you are. Once again, this is assuming you can even find one of the missions in the first place because finding a station in an 'expansion' system that just so happens to offer these missions has gotten to be stupid hard.

As thanks for your knowledge, let me share some of mine, tho this is probably more of a newbie money maker tip rather than making big endgame credits. While not a "best money maker", I did make 60 million credits in 2 days, or roughly 8 or so hours, by doing data courier jobs from Ngalinn to Mainani. That is a simple 3.82 LY jump. Why I think this is worth mentioning? A few reasons: This is solid money for newbies and can be done in even the dinkiest small ship with no engineering required thanks to the short distance. I used an Eagle as example. -While on that note, it also needs no specific outfitting. I'd recommend a fuel pump, and/or an ASP/DB Explorer to even get there, but even that is entirely optional. You don't even need a cargo hold. And most importantly: The stations involved in this are Imperial. So not only do you make a fair amount of credits in an easy way. You also unlock the rank of Duke (again, in only about 8 hours if you choose Reputation as reward whenever possible) for later, and that is damn good prep work for getting an Imperial Cutter later if you ask me. The only downside is that it can't be done in a large ship since the outposts involved have only M landing pads.

Wing Pirate Kill missions are the bomb for making money. Set one of your mates up with a shield and hull tank carrying cargo acting as the bait, and let the killing spree begin. Each of you in the team stack as many wing missions as possible, and then see how quickly those missions complete during the killing spree. Just one month of that and I purchased my FC and paid up front for it's upkeep for the next 3 years.

Over the years I’ve found stacking wing pirate massacre missions from different factions pays the best. Wing massacre missions give you a week to complete the mission (solo missions only a day) so when stacking it gives you the time to complete them all. With stacking I average 2.5 million per kill or more. To date I’m at 80k+ bounty kills and 3k assassination kills. I don’t need the credits, just love the combat in this game and I do most of my kills with a vulture in haz rez zones.

If you find some, pull up the system map for the mission location and see If there are any Haz Rez zones (best way to to find the most pirates in one place). It’s better if there are multiple stations in the mission system so you can also check for additional (wing) missions. This can take a while to find the right combination.

I've been stacking up the source & return and big buyable mining item missions, (i.e. 500-1000+ mining items needed), then jump a fleet carrier to a cheap spot and use a unshielded type 9 to load a LOT of cargo quickly, then jump the FC back right next to the station and hand in lots at a time with the type 9 if there aren't too many pirates. It has more variety than straight trading (buy and sell) missions, so I enjoy doing it. Probably the most I made in 1 day was a billion or so. Generally you get 25-50k profit per tonne with the big mining... For the rare high-volume palladium / silver non-mining missions, you can get 200-400k profit per tonne, which is awesome.

Past few days I've been grinding both credits and federation ranks pretty consistently with those 50 mil "mining" missions in the Eta Serpentis system, at Ray Dock. Nearby system BD-01 3500 (only 2.5 ly away) sells just about everything in those missions except tritium at a planetary outpost, Stafford's Progress. for the tritium, I just hop back over in the opposite direction to Robson Hub in the Ophiucii system which is just shy of 9ly. That last one is a bit of a wait in supercruise at about 18,000 ls but in a type 9 i don't have to make the trip *too* many times. Hope this helps some folks o7 Edit: on the rare occasions that the missions don't spawn, there is a Void Opals hotspot a couple jumps away in the Eravate system (18ly) that i like to farm in or if im feeling spicy/bored theres a hazrez in that same ring, so you can get a little taste of everything in a small area!

It eventually changed to Mapped mining Painite as the most profitable. Yes, LTD was eventually nerfed. With mapped painite mining you could bring in 350m credits every hour. If you were engineered and you micromanaged your run smoothly you could get that down to 350m credits per 40mins. That too was nerfed with the mining changes. You can still acquire painite quickly but offloading it is a lot more difficult now and they don't offer to buy at high prices as much anymore.

When they announced VR support was being abandoned with Odyssey, my buddies and I decided we were done playing. But in the event we decided to come back someday we wanted to make sure the squadron carrier had enough escrow to exist for a long time with all the services suspended. In one 3 hour session of wing massacres at the hazrez one jump from our home system (stacking missions from 4-5 factions, grand total needing to kill about 160 pirates) we made ~1.2 billion, each. That doesn't count all the bounties we turned in at the carrier bounty office. We dumped all that money into the carrier (with me selling the same stack of Tritium for 1000% of market and buying it back at 5%) and then shut down all the services. I logged in last month just to see how well the AirLink on my new Quest 2 worked (pretty well) and saw the carrier has like 4 years of escrow life. Such a sad state for a game I loved to end up in.

The best way to make credits in this game is in your own particular way that you've found that you enjoy doing. Grinding out someone else's Road to Riches is tedious and unrewarding, except for the credits. And there's not much else to do in the game except make money so do it in a way you have some fun with.

Working from home I can sit in a station waiting for the 30 million plus massacre missions and accumulate 20 of them. Takes about 4 hours to randomly check mission updates every 10-15 minutes. Pull out my afk type 10. Go into the next system low res and let it sit there for another few hours with my elite crew and boom. 500 - 600 million turn in. Ive been doing that cycle twice a day and make a billion a day doing almost absolutely nothing. As long as you got a g5 rated type 10 with prismatics and 9 efficient beams. Don't do it in haz res. No ship survives haz res afk. Has to be low res. Been doing this for over a year. Tried all the ship combos and locations. This can even be done at nav beacons but is alot slower to complete missions

I know I'm coming real late to this... but in exploration, I disagree about the best profitability. When using road to riches, I set my thresholds so I only see planets worth 500K+, THEN, I don't bother with any system less than a million credits total. I don't do every one on the list! Second, while I'm totting up that mil+, paying close attention to the LS to target planets is necessary. Do you want to spend the time? Third, when you get to the system, USE ORRERY VIEW. If you are going to planets 3, 4, and 5, Orrery view can easily help you determine a better route than 3-4-5. Perhaps a look at the view will quickly tell you that 3 and 5 are close together (relatively) with 4 on the other side of the sun. So, go do 3 & 5. Then, how far is it NOW to 4? oh, now it's 1272 LS instead of 448 LS? Jump out to the nearest system and back in, and save that 820 LS, plus the additional time it takes to accelerate away/around from that planet you are currently hugging! Don't bother even FSS scanning every planet. more wasted time. Engineer up your surface scanner asap. It's the first engineer you meet, conveniently. Learn where to aim your probes for best coverage. Get that efficiency bonus! On 6/7 probe bodies, I can do it with 4, and confidently enough that I'm not even waiting around to see that it worked - I'm out of the SS view and lining up on the next planet or star system as soon as I fire the last probe. Just don't jump out of the system prematurely :) Finally there's the "free money" part of exploration. On any jump to a system you haven't visited before, honk it. Then learn to recognize earthlike and water worlds on the system map - hint - in Orrery view, dark blue is water and green is earthlike. light blue is ice, grey is rock or metal. Do this even in highly populated systems. You can find worlds worth 2 million. IMO exploration is the easiest route to elite status. Plus you'll see some reallly pretty sights. You don't ever worry about running out of fuel if you get the best a rated fuel scoop you can fit and scoop on the way around each star to line up on the next system. Done right you're honking and evaluating the system at the same time.

Had to go to a surface base and destroy something with my SRV. Took while, didn’t know what to do. All of the sudden I did it, went back to starport and collected my reward. All together took me the good part of 2 hours, but I could upgrade to a high ship pretty fast. Didn’t got shot down, didn’t got a bounty, no negative effects whatsoever afterwards, but decided that I couldn’t get lucky twice; so I became a hauler

I can spend some time doing simple cargo hauling, then switch it up and go planetside, fight off some people at a crash site, and harvest some goods. I'm not saying the game is as good as it has the potential to be, but I do think if the objective of the game is just to play it, and not to try to achieve the greatest thing ever in the shortest amount of time, playing it can be pretty enjoyable.

You can actually make decent credits in odyssey exactly ONE WAY. 1) Stick a dumbfire missile launcher on your fresh new sidewinder, grab a baseline Maverick suit, then take a criminal mission to retrieve an item from an Irregular Marker site. 2) Go to the site and the game will drop 1 or 2 groups (varies at random) of hostiles. 3) Use your dumbfire missile launcher to kill them, 2 missiles will do the job and if you're careful you can hit them all right as they land and immediately kill them all with just 2 shots. DO NOT SHOOT THE DROPSHIP, IT WILL MARK YOU AS A CRIMINAL EVEN IF THE DROPSHIP ITSELF IS CRIMINAL! 4) After you missile down the infantry, land and cut your way into the 3 large cargo containers on site. 5) Each of these will have 3 chests and each chest will have one of three things: empty, full of drugs that sell for 40,000+ per item, or a single item by itself. DO NOT LOOT THE SINGLE ITEM BY ITSELF. 6) Loot all the drugs, and fly back up until you're at least 8km above the site. Turn around and fly back down and the whole instance will reset. 7) Repeat steps 2 through 6 as many times as you want, each should take around 8 minutes once you're practiced. You should make around 10 mil each round and you can do it in a fresh sidewinder with no extras other than a dumbfire missile rack and a maverick suit. I absolutely do not recommend this, mind you, but you CAN do it with just that.

RE: Trade Riches and Tritium; After Fleet Carriers were released and Tritium was added to the Commodities lists for the Galaxy, I immediately began to notice that it was *UNLIKE* most other goods which could be mined because it wasn't spawning "Blast Out X Units" missions. In other words, Tritium missions are easy cash for the same reason that Gold, Silver and especially Palladium are easy credit-currency, *BUT* unlike any of the valuable metals, Tritium gets the best profit margins. While NPC prices have varied considerably (there's been nerfs), there are 3 things to keep in mind when scouting around looking for this type of mission. ( 1 ) The higher your Reputation, the better the mission rewards. Tritium starts to pay Top Credits after you've reached "Friendly" with an NPC Faction. ( 2 ) The range for the profit margin goes between 500% to 900% of the Galactic Average. If Tritium is averaging at 45 k / unit, the NPCs will pay up to 450 k / unit. Example: 32 units for 14.4 M credits. ( 3 ) All "Supply X Units of Tritium" missions have a 24 hour time to completion; Mining Missions have 7 days. *AND* the likelihood of NPCs being spawned to interdict you are much higher in a 24 hour mission than in a 168 hour mission. *AND* Killing anything sent to interdict you is likely to be quite profitable; add the bonus from the Mission to the Bounties, 2-5 M added profit is common. P.S. There are *other* commodities which will pay up to 400 k / unit as an NPC Mining Mission, like Osmium.

^^ Also, I hate to ruin the vibe here and mention Fleet Carriers, *BUT* it is well worth an FC Owner's time to reserve a significant amount of space in the Hold for thousands of units of Tritium, *AND* for that Owner to pay between 200% to 400% of the Galactic Average price to get that stock in the Hold, since it can be later resold to NPC markets for 500% to 900% prices, and 200% to 500% profit for the FC.

idk for exploration I always surface scan ELWs, and TWWs only if they are closer than 1000ls to the dropout star. Good compromise between speed and profit.

For ground battle missions, they're terrible yes, but they have ONE situation where it's making money while you wait. If you have a ship Waaaaaaaaay out and are having it transfered to your station, picking a high threat mission will net you around 9m~ credits for that 15-minute mission while you wait for your ship to arrive. Not much, but it's that or wait for the 20-60 minutes for your ship to arrive from the other side of the bubble.

I just got to Colonia a while ago. Can you recommend a system/station where I can stack assassination/bounty missions? or Recommend what search parameters to use when using 3rd party sites (i.e. Inara)? Currently running solo, but have been lurking around your Discord...lol

I made 140m in my first 3 days by doing a few assassinations, getting an eagle, pimping it, running wing massacres in conflict zones til I hit enough to get the type 6, did trade loops for the 20 minutes it took to get the type 7, traded for a few hours to the type 9 and have been fucking ballin out in a maxed type 9 making like 14m a jump. Big dubs

Well, I found selling on foot gears materials on the fleet carrier really profitable. Just a couple of dozen can sell over 200~500mil.

And the Megaship scan missions hate it when you stack them - they tend to bug out if you attempt to stack them and save time.

Ah Yamiks - the channel you didn't realize you missed until you find it again after not having watched for a few years. I did a lot of mining a few years ago when I was still playing and got my first 'conda. I quit shortly after. It's a shame to see nothing has changed. Everything is still crap

Wing Massacre missions are still the way to go.The qualitative value in Odyssey's gameplay is so bad that it should be ignored. Plain and simple. Horizons is now a part of the base game, purchase Elite Dangerous if you want to play. Don't even let Odyssey cross your mind. If it had a value, it would literally be $4.99. I would be hard pressed to pay more. The phenomenal AI Yamiks points out in this video I think summarizes the qualitative value of Elite and what goes on at FDev, in all seriousness. I tried getting Occupied Escape Pods at Luchtaine and the limpet would keep bumping into the megaship instead of going around. Limpet, after limpet, after limpet later; still the same issue. This game for me is on its last leg.

My corvette is so engineered for PvE combat that I seriously believe it’s unkillable against NPCs I have when up against 8 hostile targets in a conflict zone and only lost 2 rings by the time they were destroyed

Yep, I came back to the game after months (I've left around the mining nerf) to play with a friend. Ground missions are a waste of time. They are also bugged. Are they making this a fun black hole on purpose?
