Made the top 50%. Haven't played since they anounced they wouldnt support VR. I solo'd all this, stock ammo, 1 rebuy, up to 5 cyclops before i'd run out of ammo and have to head back to re supply.
I used to fly with AXI.

“The taskforce was ably supported by many freelance pilots and AX squadrons, who can now claim their rewards from the Kumiho Sky. These include unique pre-engineered heatsink modules for qualifying xeno-hunters. In addition, the modules will shortly be commercially available via official Sirius Corporation technology brokers.”

Don't take any offer made by Sirius very siriusly. Months ago they announced the heatsinks would be available for purchase at some megaships somewhere and they never delivered.
 
I agree with you that there should a be a system in place to buy primium ammo synth with credits and 4-5 mil per weapon would seem about right to me.
But that system isnt in the game, the only way to do it is to exploit a bug/exploit with restock synth on death.

If for example you die and you havent used primium ammo your rebuy is 7mil.
If you die and you are using primium ammo your rebuy is still 7mil.
You havent payed for the ammo or materials, the game is not adding in the cost of primium ammo because that cost is not in the game as credits YET !.

What it should be is you can rearm at stations for 5 mil per weapon for primium (as an example). for a total of 20mil for all 4 guardaian weapons.
If you die then your rebuy should be 7mil normal ammo or 27mil primium ammo. if thats too much work for Fdev then just 27mil.

I am not having a go at anyone using the primium ammo bug / glitch / exploit.
I am hoping that Fdev read this and implement a better in game system for players to buy the primium ammo at stations etc. Then be able to pay correctly for the rebuys.
Wait...so there is currently a bug that if a commander dies with premium ammo then they still have the 30% buff after a rebuy?

Yes and another bug that means if they are in 4.0 they dont loose combat bonds either.
Another bug in 3.8, means you can shoot at an interceptor none stop and it never shoots caustic missiles at you.

So reload in 4.0 and gib in 3.8.
IDK as I dont do it myself.

Not only they still have the buff, they respawn with full ammo.
So the drill is synth premium ammo, use it, suicide, use it, suicide, use it, suicide...

Not losing Combat Bonds in the Process makes it quite a lucrative exploit
whoa. 2 years in this game and I still learn new stuff nearly every single day.

I guess I can kind of understand the logic of the combat bonds not being lost if we are to assume that it is a clone or slave flying the ship and we are telepresenced into the pilot. This would explain why we are able to rebuy, or so one of the many community theories goes. Plus, if we are to make this assumption, the CMDR would still be awarded a combat bond because "you" never died, only the ship and slave were destroyed. So, your net from the combat bond is the remaining total after losing the value of lost assets, i.e. the ship/slave rebuy. Obviously, this is just me trying to justify a mechanic with unconfirmed fan theory, but I like the "slave theory". It makes the ED universe a bit more dark and immersive for me. That and having some ganker sneak into a cz and wait for me to be crippled by a hydra I've just killed before shooting my shieldless Krait once to send me to the rebuy screen - it do sting a bit, don't it? So goes the life of flying dangerously. I'd love to see an overhaul of the reward system. I have no need of credits. I'm always material poor and the grind for those can really make the whole experience of ED less engaging. I saw some of your suggestions on another post on here for potential improvements. Good stuff. We can dream, can't we?
 
Its not good new stuff, its an exdploit using 2 bugs, which Fdev are ignoring for some bizzare reason.
Possibly because a sizeable portion of one of the largest player groups in the game utilize those bugs every Finance Friday to milk credits in a heavily orchestrated skilless weekly thargoid harvest to bolster their collective coffers. And those players buy Arx. And that group is the main demographic engaging in the current story narrative and community goals. Maybe I'm being unnecessarily conspiratorial, but the group has a lot of sway and they definitely benefit from the current combat bond game mechanics.
 
".. the modules will shortly be commercially available via official Sirius Corporation technology brokers.”

Anyone knows where we find those brokers, so we can buy more??

Nope Sirius corp does not own or controll any systems with Tech brokers present, not a single one ...

They are present in systems with techbrokers but tech brokers belong to the station controllers and the economy selects if there human or guardian version...
Last time they were going to release brand new techbrokers to mega ships but the whiners from Aprils event Got them cancelled...
It likely Fdev will have to hand of god them into existence and then once some one pushes that data to EDDN it will show up in time

“All ships in the area are invited to make use of the Song of Mecchi in the Coalsack Sector Vu-O B6-6 system, the Kandula's Truth in the Siniang system, and the Li Chyou Winds in the Onoros system

Whats that from ?
Yep The last time sirius was going to give them away, the 3 megaship techbrokers we could have had but the whiners who lost to a bunch of useless independants pilots in april would not allow it so they cried and cried and fdev removed the offer and never added the techbrokers to mega ships...
