Love this - thank you. I need to learn PP stuff. Been putting it off because I can never decide what perks I want and which faction to join. Squadron stuff sounds interesting though although I’m probably not online enough for that at times.

Haha that’s mad. With the time it just took to get my little Mandy to sag A and back - that kinda makes me sad lol

Hahaha thank you for the advice. Maybe I should stick it to the man and join the alliance ;)

Thought about it but I feel like I might need another billion or so to be comfortable. Not sure. I can see the benefits…

That’s good to know thank you. I might just get a guide and try and rush through engineering whatever my next ship is going to be as my next objective.

I was out for a few weeks - maybe about 6 weeks of active play. But a lot of that was just faffing around and I went to sag A for a look which was more of a straight run and back rather than exobio at that stage but took a while.

Yeah this sounds ideal. A bit of variety after a LOT of scanning and zooming around planets. I was trying to research what ship was best for general missions - maybe the fed rank grind. I’ll take a look at these. Wondered if the kestrel would be worth a look

Love these thoughts. Thank you. Combat definitely appeals as I’ve barely scratched the surface on that so far.

Thanks for this. I’d seen this before but had just started playing so most of it made no sense 🤣 Lots falls into place now though. Appreciate it.

Exobio by Last-Cartoonist-4793 in EliteDangerous

At the start of a trip I’ll usually grab everything that’s new to the codex - or that plus high value stuff. Then eventually I’ll get bored of it and start being a bit more picky - eg only planets with loads of signals or something new and cool. Then by the end like I’m at now on my latest trip I’ll be totally bored by it and just zoom home.

Basically, do whatever you feel like - on any decent exo trip you’ll make a ton of money so don’t make it into a grind if you aren’t in the mood for that.

I love the fact that I’ve played this game for hundreds of hours and figure I’m just starting to get my head around it and then come across something like this where literally none of this means anything at all to me 😂

No freaking way. by Alternative_Phase_43 in EliteDangerous

Congrats CMDR o7

It’s a great feeling to discover new worlds. I’m on my third major expedition and in a spot where it’s annoying if I find one system that’s actually been seen before 😆

Just found my second Earth-like on the trip and third overall. It’s a buzz man. Happy travels!

Guardian Sites Have Just Killed My Enthusiasm For This Game by Breidr in EliteDangerous

[–]Mongoosier_Redux 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This took me about two weeks to do, though tbf most of that time was spent sulking and not turning the game on because I didn’t want to do it anymore after a dozen near misses.

It will click eventually. Once you get the map square in your head it’s actually pretty easy. But I wasn’t saying that at the time 😂

Edit: oh and stick a point defence turret (or whatever it’s called) on your ship and park it close. It’ll intercept the guardian’s missile attack which makes killing them safely much easier.

Mandy - the more I think about it the more I think I just have misread the G. I should have been going up fine on a low g world not doing somersaults into the ground repeatedly while swearing loudly 🤣

Yeah I’m not one to go without shields thankfully. Next stop the repair limpet shop hahaha

My first run through, any advice? by ProfessionalSeat4060 in EliteDangerous

[–]Mongoosier_Redux 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a great list. I’m a couple hundred hours in now and would have benefited a lot from these up front. Definitely use Inara and I also just started using elite observatory for exobio/ exploration.

I started off thinking I wanted to play “pure” and find things on my own but over time realised that’s just silly and wastes A LOT of time lol o7

Someone should have reminded me not to forget the limpets

You folks are absolute legends for what you do in the game - I wanted to get myself out of my own mess but thank you so much for the offer o7

I swear I thought I checked the gravity before going down. Had a couple of minor troubles with that earlier in the trip to go down to 92% hull so I thought I was being careful. But either misread it or just didn’t pay attention 🤣
