I meant my alt account on the image above.
Created on first day of free ED give away from Epic store - has just 12 hours recorded since then and has achieved Exploration Elite + 330mil in the bank thanks for the reward of a CG which do not require participation

So i think my best shot right now is going that route.
I am not a CMDR that can do one specific thing a long time before it get really boring for me, i do all of it but just one thing over multiple hours is not for me.
I am at my 5th run back and forth with robigo passenger missions, they pay a lot less then i remember, and i am already bored of it. 2 more runs and i will head to the Nav Beacon to hunt some Bounties for the CG and deliver some cargo in between.
Mining the same i can go deep core mining 1 or 2 hours and i really like it, but after 2 hours i need some change again or my head explodes.

Honestly, just do what you enjoy. Ranks, unlocks, credits, whatever will come with the time without risking the burnout.

After that i sure go to a different pacing and will go into everything i didn´t touched and roleplay more, without looking to much into ranks and such. And hopefully Odyssey will add a whole new dimension in roleplay aspects

First time posting anything on INARA.
Where to go if you want to discuss the current community goals. I need to find best RES locations. Im finding it hard during this CG to rack up bounties.
12 Dec 2020, 1:32am
Yesterday i usually searched around the Nav Beacon from the system for wanted ships, one session wasn´t very good and just a few small ships but later a second session there went crazy with some juicy bounties showing up.
So it depends and sometimes it helps to wander around the system search for conflicts, RES in general(not just high or Haz), just switch locations from time to time in the system and sometimes it goes crazy where you don´t expect it.
Oh and never forget the Kill Warrant Scanner for this purpose, it add a lot of extra credits on top, yesterday i think 30% of all the bounties i collected was from elsewhere and wouldn´t be counted without the KWS.

IcetugaI may be wrong on this but i am under the impression that you need to get the bounties in that system. But i will soon be there again and have some bounties from other systems which i try to add to the CG, let´s see if it counts for the goal.
As long as the bounty is redeemable through Omega Merchant Command it counts towards the CG, just netted around 4 mil from neighbouring systems, specifcally Betel.
Happy hunting

You have to find systems under "Omega Merchant Command" control. its easy to find them through INARA but its up to you to find out what type of RES sights they are and if there is any massacre missions that take place in that system. last night i made my first trip search to Snotricopa and found a High RES location and farmed for about 20min (could be shorter if I ignored the loot) and made 15million in bounties.
When i get back from work today i will focus on the kills alone, sounds very profitable. plus its only 10ly away from the CG system. The RES sites are only 800ls away from the star too.
Happy hunting

EpisparhOh , the reward surface scanner indeed gives better probes.
Yes, a 6 can now be scanned with 2 probes, a 7 with 3.

Big fan already. Saves quite a bit of time.
Also enjoying explo payout for my alt-account.
But, I'd still like to be paid for the CG tho. 12 mill Cr owing. Do they expect me to schlep back to Coalsack to pick it up? Or have they never heard of bank transfer?

EpisparhIcetuga, currently exploration data is sold x3 price at https://inara.cz/galaxy-station/229575/
The x3 price counts towards exploration rank. My alt followed road to riches for 60-70 systems and got 110mil. Multiplied by factor of 3...

Since I'm mentioned, I felt compelled to respond...
Yes, you'd recommended "Road to Riches" more than 1nce, either in public or private in Discord.

Ah, one thing for the others:
When you sell to Universal Cartographics it shows the normal price , but once you sell something check the amount changed in your right panel.
!!!This is only for Betancourt Base Station during the reward time of the CG!!!
I can't recall how many times you've admonished me, 'get out of the Newb Zone already!' back then.
But, I've never had the goal of advancing as quickly as possible, rushing to an/the Endgame... I'm getting there, but savoring the experience.
For me at least, the Endgame wasn't & never has been my goal, but the journey itself.
During the CG of turning in exploration data to Betancourt Base, I used the Spansh site, with the "Ammonia Worlds" route selection, & later, the "Road to Riches" selection.
No doubt, my alt, Sappho, will benefit from Synthya's experiences, but I'm in no rush to progress her further at any accelerated rate, for the same reasons. In fact, aside from getting Sappho set up, I've hardly spent any playtime on her, being focused on Synthya.
