current best empire ranking system

[skyforger]

i know this question gets asked alot and i have looked through as many of the previous related posts as i can find. i have maxed my fed rank, and am wanting to do the same with the empire, i am at knight atm.
i have been to all system previously suggested tried the mission reset ingame system, to get charity missions or these naval ascension smuggling missions that are talked about(cant find any), and i am having very little luck. so my question is what is the best CURRENT (april 2016) way to rank up in the empires navy so i can get me my cutter i have saved for.

many thanks peeps

Cubeo - any station but Chelomey Orbital is probably best {but only if you can pronounce it properly}.

If you have Horizons, HIP 10716 is worth a look. Only need to take Cut the Power and Performance Review mission types. Make faction and internet monies!

Cubeo is any station - charity missions (Cubeo took me from Knight to Duke in a weekend)

HIP 10716 is detailed on the rankings thread - basically taking surface missions from a surface port - never been there, never done them - search the board for the thread.

I tried stacking charity mission at Cubeo (drove me insane(r)) I went down to the planet surface to try a cut the power mission. Every time I tried it was night and I wasn't familiar with the base or what to hit. Ended up losing a ship!

In the end I took a covert data delivery out of desperation. Delivered it and my % for that rank went up by 5! That was around Knight rank.

Now that's not the same for each, it appears distance and possibly both the sending faction and receiving faction play a roll in what you gain as the percentages vary between 1 and 5 percent. But it's kinda fun boosting into station with silent running on to avoid scans. I've been picking them up at Cubeo (either station) or Tamar (the platform) but when I get to the destination I generally find more covert data missions there (just make sure they're for an Empire faction). Keep going till they run out then back to Cubeo or Tamar.

Currently at 53% Viscount. Hope to be at Duke by the end of the weekend. Got a decent jump range Asp which can get to most systems in one jump.

HIP 10716: Fly to Wu Guinagi, park your ship. Buy a disposable Sidewinder equipped with dumbfire missiles and a big enough FSD to get you the 11.9LY to HIP 10716. Land at Morgan, fill up on missions, fly to Fernandes fire dumbfire missiles, wait for all missions to update... then self destruct to go straight back to Morgan without wasting time.

About as gamey as it gets, but it is trivially easy once you know where to place the dumbfire shots to kill the generator and knock out the missile batteries

I'm doing just this, although I'm mining at the moment just to break it up and make some coin. I'm using a A rated cobra as it's quick enough to outrun interdictions without being scanned. Good luck!

LOL. I never thought of that!!! I have been flying back to base, I may have to try that!
