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.

[@rednarok]

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.

[@tomasbancak8752]

Nice! Do you have edsy or coriolis link to your build?

[@ZogarX]

@@tomasbancak8752 I use a Type 7 for burning station rescue missions. It has a surprisingly good amount of passenger capacity, is easier to land than the other larger passenger ships, and you won't completely clear the board so you don't have to wait for resets. Trying to make the ship cold doesn't change much from what I've tried (you're still popping one heat sink going in and one on your way out). Build is just A rated power plant, economy cabins and heat sink launchers.

[@Xenotrickster]

@@ZogarX I like my zoomy Orca. with decent flying you can outrun most hyperdictions, just have to be brave and boost toward the smashy alien sometimes :)

[@rednarok]

​@@tomasbancak8752 you can use something else for the computer, also thee passenger cabins i switch around depending what station im running. some stations when at max rep give more business options. the heat sync is the pre engineered one. all you need are the three ECM one setup for each button and the third as a back up in case both are on CD. it takes a little to understand how far missles and limpets are from you but basically pay attention to your radar and when you see white get ready to use ECM and boost in a slightly different angle so the missile doesn't dumb fire hit you. exiting the stations if they are full of thargoids i boost around to behind the station to make them take longer to reach me while i boost away to jump. EDSY says 39 jump but its more like 41. 4-6 jumps away is paying me 150m average per trip, and it takes about 15-20 minutes each trip.

[@rednarok]

and no shields, just pay attention when exiting and entering stations cuz some passengers are fussy, but with no shield the thargoid that flies at your speed doesnt use electric shock anymore which would interrupt the countdown to jump even and stun you and hit you with limpets all at the same time. ever since i remved the shield i never saw electricity again. this is a breeze and it feels great to make average half a B an hour

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.

[@Emolederc]

i agree

[@darryldookhie5002]

The carriers were your choice. It was YOUR end game. I totally get what you mean tho. It's my end game but really just for the convenience. I always see that upkeep price and think twice tho. On that note, what happens if you don't pay and you in the black?

[@shihan74]

I've considered going this path a couple of times myself, carriers are kinda of the side-line goal for me, i mean ultimately i like exploration components and the idea of doing a ring around the entire galaxy i find attractive.... so the goal is a fleet carrier so i can do that, not so much the fc itself

[@Emolederc]

@@shihan74 same but im on 1billion rn after grinding on and off for 3 months due to work, but i hear i need 10 bill to be stable and i dont think ill have that fc in at least 2 years 😩

i just decomissioned mine, 5 bill back in my account and now im free to do what ever i want without that constant drag on my account, was tired of transferring tritium anyhow.

[@caleb4717]

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. :(

[@lewisvelazco1896]

whats the systeme ?

[@Soheil-ev6ls]

[@ChessArmyCommander]

The NEW Type 8 is pretty awesome. With over 400 tons of cargo capacity AND access to outposts! Due to how its a medium class ship. And with engineering being A LOT less grindy after the update, its much more fun to engineer ships, or even start a whole new game.

[@HOSAS_Gaming]

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.

[@najlitarvan921]

I play ED from first dates back in 87-88, it is not a game with some goal you will acchieve in 30 hours, it is a game for life, you are never done, you just need to find a new gameplay you like. collecting money in game is not a goal in game at all. but you can do it pretty easely...how much ingame money you need at all. Fly, fight, mine, explore, enjoy, sometimes I just fly without any missions or else just fly to se where I will end up.

[@tommyleisy863]

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.

[@EugeeFGII]

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.

[@sinntaxdagreat]

As usuall, top quality knowledge that is still entertaining to watch. Glad to see still making ED content. ❤ ❤

[@ChessArmyCommander]

Look for mining missions that ask for a material which can be purchased for less than the mission reward amount. For example, I've been seeing ones that ask for me to mine bertrindite or tritium , with a reward of 50 million credits. Then I just go and purchase it somewhere, within one or two jumps!

[@vizender]

11:40. Having done a bit of exobiology recently, I've found that the most reliable way to get a full planet scan in 6 probes 100% of the time is to launch one at the limit of where it won't hit the planet, 4 at the corners with the perpendicular line, and one right in the middle

10 years and I still don't think I can buy engineering materials outright with credits. 10 years of background simulation being able to accommodate the idea that NPCs and players have gathered enough of these materials to create a secondary market with them, and failing to implement it. Billions of credits, and the only thing worth spending them on isn't in the game. I'm currently doing system discovery and first footfall exobiology. If I'm going to grind, I'm going to get my name in the history books while I do it. No NPC or player to harass me, and the pleasing RNG of discovery - you never know what you're going to warp into.

Gotta mention, the sco fsd module makes 10k ls and further distances worth while. You should always be flying with an automatic module fixing thing anyway, but being able to cross 10k ls in a few seconds with very little to no damage to your ship turns road to riches into slightly less grindy.

For laser mining, the higher tier prospector limpet you use the better yield you get per asteroid. A is best, giving the highest drops. I use an anaconda with 2 lasers, a mining multi limpet controller, and a tier A prospector controller. I use the multi limpet controller just so I get 4 collectors from a size 3 internal.

[@FrogVoid1]

Welcome back theyapmiks we sorta missed you

[@DougDibrimi]

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.

[@AniGaAG]

Got my credits with Low-Temperature Diamonds back when that was extremely profitable with the infamous triple-hotspot. The problem I encountered was that, once I had all my ships built and fully engineered and my wallet bursting at the seams... I came to the realization that there was nothing to actually do with all that. No more money needed, no more ships needed - and those are the only "real rewards" in the game. So that's when I quit playing... oops.

[@jannovak2202]

Actually the exobiology can be much more profitable in deep space where you usually get the first discovery bonuses. It can be around 250m per session.

[@douglasharbert3340]

Credits are extremely easy to make. Once you get your hands on a Type-9, you basically have an infinite money printing press.

You my friend are correct! heck, even a Python for doing Robigo mines - Sothis passenger mission can make very decent credits (boring though) OH! while im talking about the python and robigo runs.. you need a 5a FSD than can make the trip in 2 jumps.. think its 30.5? to make it easier. Tip:- you can buy a pre-engineered 5a FSD from Babbage Gateway in Ceos from the human tech trader in the contacts list. for some engineering materials instead of credits.

Used to transfer my credits to my other accounts with Fleet Carriers. I got distracted with something else and left the sale price at minimum for several days. Safe to say, someone must have been very happy. And I didn't care, because I'm already so stacked with everything. They certainly didn't get banned for benefiting from it, because I didn't get banned for providing it. Also, transferring credits this way is also time consuming. And in that time nobody is generating anything.

I just got my hotas so I can have more immersion in elite dangerous so this is great timing. I'll be trying this shit out next week once I got the time. Currently setting at a comfy 500mil from doing a bit of billionaires path with odyssey but space capitalism requires I keep going.

[@JelopeBrosiah]

I've made a ton of money filling up fleet carriers for profit lately. They split some of their massive profit and you don't need to buy one yourself. While I get the AFK argument, What other game really makes you feel like a pilot of a spacecraft in a universe that makes some kind of sense? You can't buy that experience elsewhere in my opinion. So if you don't have a ton of time to play and want that bigger ship it's like what choice do you have. Suffer through smaller grinds and never reach the ship you actually want? or set yourself some AFK and do what you really want to with the time you can actually afford to play?

I will toss in my own method but it requires Odyssey: you can leverage the fact that most of the discovered systems have not been mapped/landed on and combine it with knowledge of what types of planets spawn Stratum Tectonica (exobiology specimen worth 19 million each, 95 milion if first discovered).

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..

Don't bother with prospector limpets for laser mining. Just randomly laser a rock - you'll know really quickly if it chucks out the stuff you want. If not, move on. You'll know when you've milked out a good one. As for AFK of course it's slow but making Cr250m just for leaving your PC on overnight is a fine antidote to carrier upkeep costs. Especially if you're not playing much while you wait for them to give you a reason to (mentioning no mes).

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?

[@tombexhill]

I only just completed the engineers grind and now im ready to kms😊

[@tehPete]

The engineer grind makes an hero out of everyone 😂

[@MrSandermander]

Personal evacuation missions can be really profitable too

Wish it was worth playing these days. Would love to see more SC content especially now that its in a pretty good state.

[@TheYamiks]

is it thou?!

[@BLACKICEXlV]

@@TheYamiks its better then ed and many moved from ed to sc like me

Dude, they didn’t nerf “the best farming ways”. They just turned them off (after they were available during some time to let you to spend your money for a new toy after a next game update). However a bug fixing is a normal process (like to close an entry to a hyper space between planetary rings which was full of void opal cores) PS An asteroid map. Yep. This leads to about 200kk/h. But you need to invest either into a laptop or a second monitor (this is a next level comparing to just a browser; did you ever played a game which requires an additional laptop?) PSS Can I consider 20 advs I had to watch as a kind of grinding? PPSS You’ve forgot an asteroid belt (not ring) core mining/pirates fighting. With a list of systems and belts which contain one core (the asteroids remain there respawning in 6 hours). It’s about 100kk/h. For instance there are 15 cores in a radius of 30ly around Shinrartra.

I remember hopping on this game around 3 to 5 years ago now to actually try to play it, i discovered the system that had a triple hotspot of a rare resource i cannot remember the name of, and i mined that for a day. I went from not even a million in my account to using a viper to haul 250million worth of resources every haul. I stopped playing right after the forst large haul. I can afford an anaconda but never went to get it. Now that hotspot was removed years ago so now im just a semi rich boy scared to spend his credits cause its harder ti make em back lol

[@dwifter6268]

Do people still play ED? Im genuinely curious.

[@douglasharbert3340]

Still playing.

[@Sighman]

Daily player counts are about to pass Starfield's.

[@BLACKICEXlV]

many but not me

[@marmalade6681]

Bought the game in 2015. been playing on and off ever since. Playing again at the moment... but if something shiny pops up i may change games :)

[@dsagent]

Hey Yamiks you can just buy ships with money soon.

[@marmalade6681]

Yes.. its not a bad idea! since people like me have been playing for 9+ years and havent had to contribute to the server costs, i hope they make money from it so i can keep playing for another 9+ years :)

[@jakel2837]

I got this game in 2015 because I wanted to fly spaceships, but the grind made me quit

[@God_King_Xerxes]

I’ve reset the game 10 times the grind is not that bad. Warframe grind takes exponentially longer

[@Philosophic2311]

The grind is the best part.

[@jordanansley8675]

Not everyone is built to be a gamer. If video games arent for you thats no worries! Do other things you can do instead 😊

[@olmynuwen]

Why would FD not want to talk to TY (1:20:40)

[@Cicincz]

why i even do "the grind" if not for buying carrier ?

[@shihan74]

I cant say i've ever been able to get a consistent incoming with exo, and I dont know if im doing it wrong, but I find sometimes actually finding the grass is incredibly difficult on some planets just chews time sometimes. Sometimes i'll get 100m/hr, sometimes 10

I was in Robigo the other day and the missions just ran out? Max rep, been farming it for years and just came back after a long break, has it been changed?
