Any good places to grind Fed. Rank?

Hey guys, are there any other good places to grind Fed. Rank currently? I know of Niu Hsing run but they stopped dropping many missions today.
 
Even though this question has been asked many times over the last couple of weeks, I'd direct you to 17 draconis if planetary scans or some good old pew pew don't bother you. At least, that's what I hear is out there.

I don't like data courier missions anymore, so I tend to forget where those are. If that's all you want, there are a few threads that mention where to find more. Just use the search bar up there. Plenty of threads with certain key words floating around.
 
Someone in another thread said a few days ago that they did. Might still have them. I use planetary scans to rank up, myself. Places usually dry up from time to time. I know Fehu did when I was grinding planetary scans for the Cutter. I'm planning on parking my Clipper out in 17 Draconis within the next couple of hours. If you won't be there by then, I can update you on my findings.
 
Ooh, they have those now? Last I was over there they only had donation missions.

No, not really, there is an effort which tries to bring 17 Draconis back into civil war for the last time before the patch, but it does not seem to work, some rumor is there about FD god modding to avoid it... but maybe BGS is just not fully understood or some other players interfering, whatever, watch here for updates: https://www.reddit.com/r/17draconisED/

Besides that Niu Hsing system to Lebedev is quite good currently for data and goods, Tun is a broader fed area and there are sure some other places, but beware, it is nothing like Quince ;) Sothis/Ceos are also classic if in the right state.

Well dang, quince, F dev god modding ain't off the table either since it wouldn't be the first time they pasted something into the servers silently, as for you CMDR Brony I am a Post Captain so I may well be a Rear Admiral in a few hours, however I could go there for the money.
 
Go to sothis , get the data missions to ceos (federation local factions only ) , you can make these spawn by swapping between open / group /solo . When you've got 20 of them , fly 1 jump to ceos drop off all missions , then take 20 missions back to sothis . By doing this you will rank up fast. You will also then see missions back to the bubble for small amounts of cargo if you pick carefully and make easily between 20-60 million over 3 hours . A quick google on sothis ceos runs will explain it properly . I ranked up within a week so I could buy the corvette . Empire ranking over at quince is even easier 😒 Got my cutter within 3 days ... it is very boring though on both . Be warned getting to sothis you will definitely need a fuel scoop and a reasonable jump range as it's about 400ly from the bubble . I've had friends doing the local missions and long distance mission in a t6, I used my anaconda though .
 
Hm, I'll have to look at a few other places on my way out there. I'm sure there's something to be found, some system in a good state for ranking. I'll scrounge around the bubble a bit with the Eyeballs MK1. I run missions in my Clipper, though, so I can't check outposts.
