Your reputation with the Feds will not suffer, and as for smuggling, just fly about 9km away from the station, find the slot, go full speed (no need to boost) directly at the slot and remember your docking permission at 7.5km. Just get into the station and dock as usual without being scanned, then sell your loot on the black market under contacts. If you want added security, equip a heat sink and make sure to use it once you are at around 3km or less to the station.
thanks mate - will give it a go. Do you use silent running as well or just a fast straight in approach?
Hi
will we all end up as enemies of the federation for doing this? Thanks
okay so basically:
- aim straight at the station entrance from about 10kms out
- disable all major systems other than thrusters/shields?
- get approval about 7.5kms out (standard)
- get through as quick as possible to avoid being scanned
That about right?
Is this can be called a bug or an exploit?
(BTW.. Dullahan.. why would I ever want to go into a simple conflict zone ever again?)
I ignore silent running, as I like to keep my shields up for any mistakes I might make, just in case. Just go fast and straight in (no need to boost and splatter yourself everywhere on the station's walls though). If you pop the heatsink, I guarantee you that nothing will scan you (heatsinks are better than silent running I believe).
Agree completely! Its really simple but adds so much to the whole conflict.
Not sure if this is normal but around 4 out of my 5 attempts, the T9 carrying the cargo dropped nothing, I did not destroy it, I made sure to get the cargo hatch to 0%. My result was a bunch of nothing. Am I supposed to use limpets? The rewards don't see that great if I can't even get the T9 to drop a few tons.
due to the enormous bounty on my head I actually used solo mode for the first time ever to do this, every time I checked the conflict zones in open there were 8+players, it was a nightmare i'd have been ganged and destroyed instantly. As suicidal as it was I still wanted to participate in this goal because i'd been following the lugh progress since release so I ventured into solo to contribute.

I had no success when I shot the hatch to 0%, either. THe fx was to drop it to 20-40%ish, at which point it started leaking cargo.
