-- THE -- ROBIGO 100% dead! Let's find new one --THREAD--

The small number of in bubble BB boards I checked all had multi 100k missions and also low millions missions - short range. Looks like a decent buff to in bubble missions.

More good news, thanks. I'm anxious to get on this weekend (all three days of it!). I downloaded and installed it last night in about 15 minutes, didn't actually catch a chance to give it a go. Sounds like I need to get my LR-Annie out to Maia ASAP.
 
How to increase rep in such distant places if there is not a single mission on a board?

Are you talking about Heston? I just go to open, check missions and then go to solo, you will get missions to get rep up. I made 3mil in 20 min delivering a bunch of slaves for fun. Maybe I got blessed by the RNG gods.

I've been to the other long distance places (before 2.1) to get away from Robigo. Suffice it to say, the RNG gods hate me. I didn't find one decent mission.
But now that everything is different mission-wise, I have to do the rounds again.

That is the problem I have. I spend a long time checking out systems only to find no missions or missions I do not want to do or can't do. I don't want to smuggle. Smuggling once in a while can be fun. I liked just hauling cargo over long distances but finding them can be a real pain. Maybe they were removed because they were not grindy enough? Really prefer doing those over trading or exploring because it reduces repetition. Really love RNG sometimes. :)

He might mean Helston Cornwall? Don't blame me, I'm just saying!
 
i spent 2 of my 3 day weekend trying to gain rep with Maia so that i could run my LRS missions :/ no joy it would not budge at all! .... i tried trading at a loss, Cycling the mission board for hours to see 0 missions, Bounty Hunting, and Turning in Exploration data. that damn Neutral bar did not budge so i was forced back to the bubble and able to get some short range smuggling done which for me really sucks as i did not get the thrill of the chase that i get from LRS
 
Update on long range missions for me so far tonight:

Aditi had plenty of long range delivery and smuggling missions around the 2-5 mil. There didn't seem to be a difference in payout between smuggling and legal missions. Ranging from delivering 16-108 tonnes number of tonnes did not seem to affect payout and neither did rank lol. I am allied with all factions.

Fehu was almost all charity missions, a few of which were on 25-50k, others were higher or commodities. The only faction offering long range smuggling was not empire aligned but all missions were 5-6 million for again 16-108 tonnes. Rank and number of tonnes did not seem to affect payout. I am allied with most factions.

Currently on my way back from Fehu with 5 missions totaling just less than 30 mil (that filled my 200 tonne capacity). 3 interdictions so far but not had to fire a shot, all pirates no security. Wish I'd brought the conda, more missions and better jump range (49 jumps from Fehu to first drop in my python!).

I'm a little disappointed I'm not being chased all the way like in 2.0 :(

All the above with NO mode switching.
 
I've never done the Robigo thing, so I'm not sure how well that pays out.

For ranking up with the Federation though the place to go used to be 17 Draconis. Might be worth checking out. In a previous game save I was able to make 10 million credits every hour or so doing smuggling missions. Lots of charity missions too so you could rank up quick in the Federation Navy.

Since doing the full game reset though I personally refuse to grind. This game is supposed to have a 10-year development lifespan so I don't need to get to the top overnight. Right now I'm totally focused on exploration. I'm gonna run around the galaxy until I hit Elite in exploration. After that? I'll have at least 150 million credits which should put me in a halfway decent combat ship.
Was in 17 draconis after the update but it just had donate missions. The donate credits had jumped up a far way as well from a few thousand to hundreds of thousands. Might have been just bad luck on my part im not far away so might jump up and see what there is
