The Pilots Federation is legally required to say that all ships come stock with emergency phasing technologies to dissuade overly aggressive Commanders from engaging in excessively destructive acts.

The so-called "PvP" is strongly discouraged by the Pilots Federation, though not always entirely illegal.

It's more a collection of my adventures nowadays 😁

We were six or seven CMDRs, and I think I just got lucky with them, because I didn't really hit all that much, had tried VR but with this much clutter in the instance it was a lagfest.

Anyways, Hydra is Hydra 🤣

Finally 🥳 🥳 🥳

That missing badge bugged me quite a lot (pun intended).

Last week on thursday when the AX war reignited with the combat zones in the Pleiades and the Coalsack Nebula,
I decided to finally go for it and get the last one missing.

I started out with 410 Thargoids killed.

I had some Cyclops kills for a long time, and an assisted Basilisk kill.

The last few days I scratched quite a lot things of my to do list:

  • finished an AX CZ solo (without Hydra)
  • finished an AX CZ including Hydra in a wing
  • participated in killing a Hydra obviously
  • finished a Basilisk (in AX CZ only, so still have to get one in a USS)
  • finished a Cyclops / Cyclops + Basilisk triple kill (in the finished CZ)


To complete my goal I killed 569 scouts and 28 Interceptors, the Hydra isn't awarded by Inara
because I wasn't in the wing which scored the last shot, the CZ awarded the kill though,
as seen in the screenshots some posts further up.

In the end I was killing scouts mostly, first in a Krait MkII then later in my absolute fun AX Chieftain "AX McMuffin"

s.orbis.zone s.orbis.zone

For the scouts I changed the medium Gauss to a second AX Multiturret, still enough to kill Cyclops but only good
for Basilisk assists. Still have to kill a Medusa yet.

I'm quite relieved I got this target before Odyssey drops on Wednesday/Thursday, so I can now concentrate on this.

Official sources requested, friend-o. :p Should be a stats page in your Codex under your Commander's tab.

That mild humor aside, good job on 1k kills. Semper Bellum!

I got my backside handed to me a few days ago. I was flying a decently engineered Vulture, with a pair of G5 (overcharged) MCs (incendiary). Bi-weaves (I am currently greasing my way towards unlocking prismatics), 2 SBs, 1 SCB, 1 chaff, 1 heat sink. G5 dirty drives... I was trolling in Deciat, basically running around with a "Kill me! PLEASE! RIGHT NOW!" sign on my fuselage. Just for giggles. ;)

A commander in an FDL pulled me over for a friendly non-verbal chat. Man, the fur flew. MY fur. :LOL: He kicked my backside so hard, I had trouble getting up from my seat afterwards.

I did my fair share of mistakes: 1. Didn't use pips properly (got flustered). 2. Didn't manouevre enough. 3. Forgot to use chaff/heat sinks/SCB...

Anyway, I took my licks and watched my ship come apart around me. The rebuy was well spent, it motivated me to slime my way into the good graces of that young lady offering prismatics for old geezers like me...

How are you finding enhanced tracking? I was wondering what to do with the last mod slot on my maverick.

It's ok, I usually use my G5 Aphelion to snipe NPCs and the idea was to scan everyone and detect the sharpshooters, but that G5 suit can withstand plasma rounds so it's not that helpful any more. And it's nice for covert missions (that I don't have to do any more :LOL:).

In retrospect I guess something else like quieter footsteps would've been nice also. But neighbours lawn is always greener, right? :ROFLMAO:

now i'm looking for suit schematics to level another suit to g5 😂

Why do you need Dominator ?
- To be hired in conflict zones, to fight and to raise your rank as a mercenary.
Why do you need Artemis ?
- To explore planets, collect fauna and gain rank.
Why do you need Maverick ?
- To get the one I want Dominator and/or Artemis.

I'm not convinced I need a Dominator at all with the shield value and resistance of a G5 Maverick.
Will build one sooner or later but right now the Mave is enough.

Gonna put a scope on my Aphelion and G3 + Jump assist + improved sprint on my Artemis and then I bring my iClipper to Colonia, exploring a lot on the way there.

I think really it's the extra ammo you carry - along with the extra flexibility - in another weapon that gives the Dominator a real function, great for clearing squads of raiders in short order. Maverick was definitely first to get the G5 treatment, no specials in Colonia though.

And with Euro 2021 games all over the radio .. happy days! (y)

Yeah, I've been using the mav to raid a tourist settlement for opinion polls. I could take the dominator, especially since I've filled my ship's asset storage and stopped looting those and just hit up the data points, but I take the maverick just in case the power centre locker has anything good in it. Also the reactor guy only has level 2 clearance and sometimes I forget to steal level 3 off the guy in the dorms, so that second e-breach (the first being to get into the reactor building) is handy for swiping the regulator. I'd rather use an e-breach on the reactor controls than walk all the way back up to the rest of the settlement and go corpse-hunting.

Plus there's like... four guards. Two primary weapons for that is overkill.

I'm bahack 🥳

Got my new shiny t16.000 stick+hotas combo (for a "measily" 99 € by the way 🤗)

No new videos yet, but I'm gonna shamelessly promote my new (own) squadron,

Been There Done That [BTDT]

So, if anyone feels he/she/it/x has enough from BGS or grind or just wants to talk trash and hang out, feel free to join up.

For now I'm gonna G5 the rest of my Odyssey stuff and I guess then I go back to Colonia for a while.
