Been playing since launch, just hit combat elite.
Don't believe the hype, it'll never get there just from playing the game, grind baby grind.

Boy I'll say! Attaining Combat Elite is mind bending grind.
combat elite means nothing except access to jamesons if you hadn't already. so it's a pure grind objective. i would expect a pure grind objective to be grind.
anyway, since it is actually just accumulation of credits, with the recent changes in payouts it just shrunk to about a quarter.
ironically, it's the only elite rank i have, i got it when payouts were about ... 20 times? lower than today, and it didn't even feel like a grind to me. everything is relative.
Combat Elite is based on number of kills, with a multiplier that is applied based on the rank of the pilot killed relative to your own at the time of the kill, not credit value. Y
combat elite means nothing except access to jamesons if you hadn't already. so it's a pure grind objective.
Greetings and Salutations Commanders,
I have recently achieved triple elite in my second account in a reasonably short time of 501 hours and 55 minutes. I think of it as a rich dad poor dad kind of situation- knowing what to do means success, whatever that means- is much easier to achieve. Now waiting for Oddessy and, hopefully, new goals.View attachment 207898
Finally hit combat elite today to finish off my triple elite! I hit deadly almost two years ago. The grind is real. Now to actually play the game!

Thanks! There were moments I was honestly unsure if I'd ever do it. I did about the last 15% at the CNB for the CG the last couple weeks.Congratulations Commander! I'm within 25% myself and yes, the grind is real. So real in fact that when I hit 75% deadly I had to take a long break from combat, I was becoming blearly-eyed. By the way I'm doing it all in a HI RES.
