Combat Elite

In general I agree with you... but what's logical clearly did not get the job done.
I'm currently in a Vulture - bought that 3 days after it was released. Since then I fight only in CZs and I fight selectively. I take down the biggest ships and anything that attacks me along the way... then leave the zone and come back in.. rinse and repeat.
Prior to that all most of my kills were in a Cobra or Viper. Other than dropping down into an Eagle or Sidewinder... not sure how much smaller I could go.

Simply put a progress bar to the next rank, would solve all the confusion, meanwhile.....
Wow, that a lot of kills, without progression.
There's another thread somewhere asking for combat rankings. I notice that many (elites) have higher assassination money, maybe that counts for more?
I also wonder what has changed since the upping of credits/kill in the past update.
It's all guesswork.
Upon reflection, bounties are not kills when you use a KWS, you're basically getting 3 bounties for each kill.

Those are some serious stats. Is it known if an assassination mission is a requirement to getting elite combat rating ? Might be worth doing one of those, in case it is.
Ships in CZ's have better weapon load outs and armour. They are also more persistent and skilled at combat.
She/he has assassination money already, mine shows as qty 0 as well, even though I've done a bunch.
+1 to you. We are clearly in the same boat! Thank you for helping me see that I am not alone here!
I don't even want a progress bar... I'd be happy with something that would require a station check-in as someone else suggested. "You're halfway there!" Or some such...
As i said in my previous post its all about rank and i finally found my screenie from feb when I hit elite and its closer to 7k in total.
