I do afk, let me explain why. The grind in this game is ......fucked, but I did it. The fleet carrier was my end game goal. I milked low temprature diamonds when they were the go for about the same time that you would spend to complete any other solid game just to get it. It makes me happy. It's my space home base. But now there is a negative loop to keep it based on upkeep. I refuse to loose it. Makes me happy. It's a show of my success and accomplishment in the game (if even only for me). Afk farming I can do while I'm at work (luxury of working from home to be fair), it means I can play once per 6 months to keep it. The Down side of upkeep is when I feel the urge to dive in and try something, all I care about is space cheddar (to quote another cdmr) rather and experimenting with other game play. It's a negative game play loop the really grates me. Get ride of upkeep. If they don't log on for 3 months warp it out into storage or something. They can work it out. Draining our grinded funds It's the biggest fuck you to the player base if ever there was one. It's the pinnacle of your game play Don't make it a negative.

My fav way to make credits is rescue passengers from thargoid under attack large stations. 4-6 jumps range, get the rep to ally and enjoy 120-180m per trip. the catch is if your too fast you saturate it, but you can come back 3-5 times a day spaced apart and make that value always.

Problem with "rushing through The Grind so you can get to the stuff you enjoy" is that 90% of "the stuff you enjoy" will be the same stuff you've just rushed through.... because there isn't anything else. There are exceptions but, for example, if you're rushing through the grind so you can buy a fully-loaded combat Corvette to space Anacondas, it'll be exactly the same gameplay if you were flying a Cobra and using it to space Adders and DBXs. Maybe you want to buy an Anaconda so you can go space-trucking but, again, it'll be exactly the same gameplay if you were flying an AspX. Sure, you can do stuff on a "higher level" with a top-tier ship but the actual gameplay IS identical.

There are always a few markets in the bubble that buy Monazite at around 750k credits. Also, the ring density plays a role in core mining; find a dense ring with multiple Monazite hotspots, preferably of density over 8 or 9 ton/km^2. In my experience, you can collect 192 tons of Monazite in one or two hours, which is not a bad deal.

You can still do the massacre stacking solo. Pirate kills are tracked for missions on a PER FACTION basis. So if you get a 5m "Kill 10 pirates" mission from The Union of United Uniters and another 5m "Kill 10 pirates" from The Liberal Party of Free Freedom, you get paid 10m after 10 kills. In the right places, you can stack these from 6-10 different factions. I regularly get a stack of 20 missions which require between 70-100 kills (per faction, not combined), kill them off in about 2 hrs, and walk home with around 300-400m credits, plus my paltry 20-30m bounties. And that's solo, no wing stacking. I don't have friends. :(

Oh, there is another "classic" trade route in the Taygeta system, from Titan's Daughter station. This is an easy back and forth money maker. You take missions to fill up your cargo with, make 1 jump to another station to complete the missions, then you can buy another commodity to take back to Titan's Daughter for s smaller profit return trip. Do this enough, you get better missions with better rank with the local factions. Round trip, takes about 15 to 20mins, give or take, and there is not much risk. Apart from the usual NPC pirate interdiction now and then.

Can confirm the wing mission massacre stacking works quite well. Everyone on the wing stacks up as many missions as possible. Everyone runs a KWS. We would typically have a wing of 4 people, with each of us having 10-15 missions, and needing to kill around 90-120 pirates. Once they were all finished, then you return back to base, and then TAKE TURNS sharing your mission, let everyone turn it in, then you turn it in. Rinse and repeat for each person till all the missions are turned in. Then we all go to our squadron carrier to turn in our bounties, which will let you turn in all bounties you picked up (even if you would have had to travel around to jurisdictions normally). Yes, 25% of the bounties go to the carrier--but since we control the carrier... I once made 850M in just over 2 hours, counting the hand-ins. The problem is still that for this to be effective--you need to have a decked out ship that's probably fully engineered--meaning you probably don't need the money anymore, except for stuff like carrier upkeep. The last time we did this was right before we quit the game--loading up the carrier with enough credits to keep the upkeep paid for 5 years with all the services shut off. That was about 3 years ago lol.

FYI you can do the space conflict zones legit, as the missions don't care about the CZ difficulty in which you kill the ships. So you can just go do a low CZ and get the same mission reward. And if you get a wing up and share the wing missions, all kills count towards everyone's shared missions, so you can crank out the missions. With high faction for the mission-giver, you can get 30-40 mill per wing mission, letting you crank out over a hundred mil an hour per person in your wing.

I'm not sure this is a comprehensive guide. Massacre Missions don't supplement my squad's BH pay. When done in a wing we can each stack 3 or 4 wing missions each at 20m to 39m CR per mission, spend about a half hour in a ring, and everyone gets to cash in on all the missions. Assuming an average payout of 20m CR per mission and minimally two missions per CMDR, you're talking around 160m per hour if it takes you one hour to complete your missions...which...if you know how to stack Massacre Missions...one mission will take just as long as 7. You can find systems where each faction supplies Massacre Missions for some pirate faction next door, and if you make sure to only take one mission from each faction, and the target faction is the same, one kill counts as one ship in every mission you have. A lot of my CMDRs end up spending more time waiting for the mission board to flip before heading into the ring than they actually spend in the ring. I know this video is about primarily solo grind, and a lot of what you said about entry level for bounty hunting is true. That being said, once you have the ship, the Reputation with the factions you take missions from, and you've done a dozen or so Massacre Missions, you can expect to start seeing close to 50m CR in solo mission rewards, and can stack up to 7 faction's missions (remember: one per faction) and your target quantity maxes out around d 81 at first and goes as low as 32. We spend a lot of time bounty hunting in my squad. You're kind of only scratching the surface in terms of optimization in this particular discipline. Just saying. You can come fly with us for a day and you'll see what I'm talking about.

With a fleet carrier, you don't need to worry about maximizing jump range or cargo space on any ship build ever again. You can mine with very little cargo space, transfer the commodities to your in-system fleet carrier, fill it up, then jump to a sell system and unload it all with your T9 (for example).

Even though it's a stupid way to make credits, I bought Odyssey when it came out and I need a way to justify it while funding my way to my first fully outfitted ship so exobiology it is.

Thanks! I’m gonna get back into elite this summer after taking awhile off, because they’re finally adding some much-needed things to the game. This will be very useful! Do you recommend trying to do engineering too? Or is that just a horrible experience still

Apparently, engineers gona be change this summer with the new powerplay 2.0. Probably with python mk2 release in August...

I tried AFK farming when I first heard about it just to see if it worked. Outside of the novelty though I agree with Yamik's take on it. I'd rather use a Type 10 turret build for Thargoid scouts and actually play the game.

AS a Mostly solo player :p I find the fleet carrier very worthwhile.. Currently 12k Ly from 'civilisation' and i can land, repair, refuel and cash in my loot from scanning flowers and goop as well as discoveries.. I make back more in 2 hours of very below average scanning to pay for a month of my investment :) I also have access to most of my ships and modules almost all of the time. BUT! I mostly agree that if you are staying in the bubble you really dont need one.. With the possible exception of trade. It was nice to be able to put 15000 tritium in my cargo from a distance of under 10Ls, most of the time it was 25 - 30 Mn. Other commodities you can.. Fill it up.. move and sell it all faster than i could if i just used my cutter. What can i do with 5 bil? not much anymore really.. ive bought almost everything i will ever need in this game and have enough to buy at least 1 more FC. (No.. i cant own more than 1) ANYWAYS.. For people just starting out! Listen to him! Dont buy a Fleet Carrier until you have nothing left to spend your money on!

IDK but the inara prices are just wrong for me. Was hoping for A-B-A trips, and wherever I go the prices are much lower for sell and much higher for buy then on the site. And yes, I've been in systems that were updated minutes ago, max 1h. What am I doing wrong?

I really wish that elite was more focused on exploration or something more exciting. I mean the game has a absurdly big galaxy to explore, but the game doesn't really capitalize on this because most of the stuff you do is inside of the bubble. Elite Dangerous made me fall in love with space, realizing how just how big our galaxy is, and how fun it could be to explore it. yet what you mostly do in the game is grind so you can do something that's fun like combat, exploration, or even for a bigger ship if you like trading like me. it's just sad to see that Elite Dangerous is slowly dying, and because it's a live service game when it dose die we cant play it anymore. there isn't that many space sim's out there, and in none of them have came close to the feeling that elite has given me. people say that star citizen show's a lot of promise but I have a feeling that when or if it fully relaces it will fallow in elite's foot print's of being a grindy slave pit. I guess what I'm trying to say is that elite had a lot of potential but is just a big grind fest, and with the disaster of Starfield and star citizen still not being in a reusable state, nothing can fill the void in my soul that grinding for FED and IMP ranks for the scend time left in me. sorry for rambling

You could just leave the bubble and explore. You can literally just do that. No one says you have to grind for anything. It's easy to set up a good exploration ship that will never have to return to civilization again. I'm sure you could do it with a Sidewinder if you really wanted to.

@@SolusVir An alt account is the best way. Only needs a DBX and off you go. The main account stays in the bubble so you don't miss anything new.

@@Sighman There's nothing to miss in the bubble as far as I'm concerned. I hop my carrier back if I ever feel like a little combat, though. DBX is a great little exobiology platform, btw. Can land just about anywhere. I used to do it in my anaconda!
