I've found it useful to invest heavily in the science skill tree. You learn all kinds of great stuff and level pretty quickly!

Cutter is best just for trading alone man, much better ships out there for piracy!

James HussarI haven't tried the Kids DLC yet. It sounds like a horrible grind, but in time allows you to develop your own faction. Anyone play it, who cares to weigh in?


I tried this DLC very late in the game, and though I was only going to download Season 1, a consequence of the Marriage DLC was to subscribe to Season 2 of the Kids as well. many Pros and Cons to the timing aspect. As for the DLC, it does involve a lot of grinding, costs quite a few credits, and that number will rise incredibly high later in the game.

That said, it can be incredibly rewarding at times as well as being soul crushing at others. It adds many elements of of surprise and unpredictability to the game and on balance makes for more interesting experience. Unfortunately, once started you can't really STOP playing it

Why use a Cutter? Obviously a Type 9 is much better suited.

Heyyo- can I get some opinions please?

Mostly bent on hunting down ships for merits, but I wanted a slight twinge for PvP.
How well do y'all think it would fair?

(heat sinks are for SCB's, and the planet lander thing was for personal reasons)

Surprised not to see the CG better attended - it's 300k return just for taking part, 5 hours still to go...

I agree!! I spent the first part of the week grinding away in an ASP to get to the 50% mark, then traveled about 400 LY to pick up my Vulture and head over to Nespeleve for the BH CG. The Skortsov Orbital CG barely moved and the BH CG (as usual) is generating great returns so I would have been better off (credit-wise) by doing this from the beginning and skipping the TRADE CG.

I like the premise, though, so glad to help move inebriants for the celebration!!! o7

Ah, so there are people elsewhere on other CGs? That makes sense. I thought the Nespeleve and Wyrd ones had already finished.
19 May 2016, 3:44pm
Wyrd was extended by a week, Nespeleve started at the same time as Skortsov.
19 May 2016, 3:48pm
CGs at Nespeleve just finished. It's been a long week. Glad it's over so I can now head back home.
Managed top 10% in the trade CG but only to 60% in the BH CG. Had to restrict myself to the Nav Beacon due to only having my trading Python with me. Still, a profitable week with just over 11 million credits rewards.
Might take some time off now to de-stress.

Woo hoo, finished in the top 10 commanders in the Wryd CG. Anyone know if you can equip the new huge weapon unlocks?
19 May 2016, 5:17pm
So I have collected rewards from Wryd CG and no huge weapons!!!!
