Did INARA run out of FD influencers?

Alternatively you can enrich yourself on the games lore and history and maybe go visit some of the more well known historical sites

As far as your boredom, I suspect you want easy and convenient distraction.


Why would I want that? That would be complete waste of time and even more boring.

Nice list, BTW Thanks. I have done some stuff from it. Some landed me in prison for several times. LOL.

I only play it because at the moment I have to spend hours in front of a screen and weather is mostly crap. I was reading before but wanted a change. So, I thought, lets try a PC game because I have never cared for this stuff. Yes, graphics are surprisingly nice.

Halloween setup? I think so.

(Not been in the game to see if anything’s appeared around this system, yet, but I don’t think so - this tends to occur more on Thursdays or update days.)



Oh, nice! Anybody gallivanting around Frenis and doing a little search these days?

According to reports on Discord I'm seeing, it is actually something that is in the game and can be completed for some rewards - going to investigate for myself now... with my carrier because I'm out in the Coalsack nebula and lazy.

So, okay, here's an AX challenge thing from me. As follows: be able to destroy [insert Interceptor variant here, the stronger the better, ofc] being so badly drunk and depressed that even going to your own friggin bathroom is a challenge of its own and you can't even sit straight.

Currently, it's a Medusa for me because hecks those Guardian guns lack ammo capacity to go through an entire AXCZ and I don't want to grind those synth mats. But I might try a Hydra via NHSS while I'm conscious.

Take command of KMKII with 4 AXMC and 2D beam all gimballed then go to AXZ Low. Keep Medusa to the end of the battle and then finish it after you kill around 40-50 scouts and 1 cyclops or basilisk. Do not engage interceptors before scouts stop spawning and you kill them all otherwise interceptor(s) re-spawn and it takes much more ammunition to finish them vs. scouts. I took down 47 Medusas that way all solo. Good luck.

That was awesome advice for those who are still on their learning curve, yet to reach that 'kill any Interceptor at any time imaginable', and have to rely on NPCs or AXCZ spawn mechanics. No worries, you'll get there eventually. Now, for those who are really up to the challenge, and ready to drink so much that you can't even see your aiming circle...

Are you taking about yourself? I don't think so. Though you don't have KMKII and you hate AXMC as per our previous discussions.

Please, show me exactly where I stated that I hate AXMCs. I've only said, and I stick to that opinion, that it's an entry-level low-performance AX weaponry made to narrow the gap of AX entry requirements, and give players a taste of AX combat without demanding as much skill as Guardian weapons require.

Only aim for elite ships and it'll start to increase slowly but surely.
With that said combat rank is, I believe, the slowest rank to increase.


I think you may be right. I am elite in exploration and one rank below for merchant but I do more combat than anything else and I’m only at mid-master.

Interesting little mystery hunt, that thing Frontier gave us today. Back out to Coalsack I go, partly so I can watch the Thargoid madness that is (likely) to go off on Thursday from afar.

Have you finished it? I am at

and a bit at a loss here. Will continue tomorrow.
