I suck at Piracy..

[HeavyGroovez]

So i tried to make some money at robbing bobs.


I was reasonable, i didnt kill anyone. Maybe that was my mistake.



Bottom line, it was fun but i dont think i am ruthless enough to make it profitable.



Good fun though, most traders are up for some banter and they are really good at the interdiction game.



I will keep trying until i get someone to drop some goodies.

piracy sucks...
I tried yesterday. 20 killed traders, 3 dropped cargo. of course police always coming when i'm scooping...
Limpets are too slow, it's hard to hit rotating target's cargo hatch.

Most traders are pretty reasonable.

They stop for the scan...And then they leggit.

Which is fair play, i dont shoot them if they stop, but im in a big fat slow Python.

You need a zero tolerance policy.

If your hearts not in it it's not the right profession for you. If you do do it don't wipe your fines/bounties

I think Clipper are better piracy ship. Faster than cobra, and better armed than T9.
I'm always shoting drives, sometimes grinders droping cargo... and using self-destruction

I never wipe. Thats not my style.


I always have a bounty in the hope that someone will interdict me for a fight.


And ive had a few.
