My strategy was to do 1 weekend of whatever gold rush there was whenever it got popular. As of right now I have 14 billion in assets and 12 billion liquid. I could die literally 1000 times before I have to start selling stuff for rebuy. I've self-destructed because I didn't want to fly 10k light seconds back to the station to rearm/repair before.

The recommendation is do enough at first so you can die 30ish times without needing to grind, then maybe one day a month do whatever the credit grind that's in vogue at the moment is and you'll never worry again. Unless you're bad and die a lot, that is.

Once again, very valid and helpful advice.
I tend to do every gold rush I hear about, I even developed a certain glee to do it before it's fixed.
What really helps is that I like laser mining to relx, with the new payouts and double painite hotspots that is something I can do once or twice a month without getting mad.

LOL, and here i am without any of the top 3 ships and less than a billion in credits.

Perhaps i should partake in more gold rushes.

Yep OP, the way ED is structured make taking advantage of gold rushes mandatory if you care whatsoever about PvP. Not just for the money, either, because sometimes gold rushes are about exotic, hard to acquire g5 parts and materials so you can keep up with the engineering grind. I've managed to get myself up to roughly 6 billion liquid and a decent garage full of battle ready ships. If you only had 1-6 rebuys you would just run like hell from anything that even smelled like PvP. Or just quit playing the game altogether.

With all the whining happening in another thread because NPCs are now challenging (vs. sitting still and allowing players to farm them), I've gained new appreciation for the PvPers. Do me a favor, if you see any of these self-proclaimed "pirates" of NPCs, blow them up! Except for me, of course :D

ps - I'm not naming any names! I don't want to get in trouble :p

I guess this is middle of the road for a PvPer:
  • INSURANCE CLAIMS: 40
  • TOTAL CLAIM COSTS: 337,773,029
That's about 3% of my total assets. I stopped worrying about rebuys a long time ago.

If it wasn't for VR I'd have a play on the PS4, just to come chasing after you in my massively overspecced Viper III - doesn't hit very hard but can run away really quickly :)

(for the PvP'ers - despite my levity and odd comments, I'm actually one of your supporters - even if I'm not 'your content')

Bigmaec,
Be honest, you'd feel bad murderhoboing someone who only has 13 million credits while you sit on billions drinking the blood of baby otters.
I know you have a conscience in the burned out wreckage of what was once a human soul.
