Lemla KelibHi Commanders,
just posting to ask a question. I'am Elite for trading and Exploration. Now trying to level up the Combat rank. Currently "Novice" it seems like my rank is not leveling up anymore! Here is the thing: went at a ressource site wainting for "wanted ships". I destroyed 5 wanted ships (all of them at competent rank, so higher than mine), I get the bounties but no effect to my progression! Looking at my session log, it lists the destroyed ships (and bounties earned) but says "0 total destroyed ships" at the bottom!

Do I missed something? Any Idea?

Thank you commanders!


Realistically depending on their worth at the bare minimum you need to destroy around 5-6K ship to reach combat elite. And i just let you to figure out the rest of it, if this is not a bug. The bottom line? Keep fragging em like there's no tomorrow.

You should be right... Maybe just a question of small numbers! I will keep fragging and see...
I now just think that the "0 total destroyed ships" at the bottom of the report from the session log for combat may refer to my own ships! (no ship lost) and not total kills.
If someone could confirm?

And probably the fact, some things only get updated after relogging. Check your numbers again.

Yeah, there is no such thing as a FC planner or so, although it may be good to put some basic info into the shipyard, indeed. But, once you have your FC set, you can see quite a lot of details about it on your fleet page.

yeah - i am debating as to whether I want one or not and if I choose yes then I certainly do not want to be running and constantly funding it. SO was really looking for some form of FC calculator - to give one a planning chance on the costs of running said FC -

JarwelHello people,

I have a problem with a friend when he manages the turret and we don't know how he can activate the turrets of my ship. Does anyone know how my friend can manage the turrets of my ship?



I have never seen how to operate this mode switch joining a ship with turrets, I am not sure it was ever added to the game despite seeing videos of it four years ago.

Having hauled a solar systems worth of gold I am now feeling a little flush (5.5 bill) have decided that I do not yet want FC as I am off game for months at a time - so why pay....

But I want to rank up my combat and FED/Empire ranks and now want to buy my first PVE battle Anaconda. TO kill stack pirate missions etc - can I have your builds and suggestions... for a worthy PVE battle conda (Burtha -will be her name)

thanks

You just like to torture yourself with the brick and a battle fortress that is the Type 10. I would pick the Anaconda in basically near everything over that thing.

Torturing oneself or picking the hard path, because that's the only way to get things done?
