COMPLETED CG Defence of the Galactic Summit (Bounty Hunting)

[GraphiteGB]

Is it best to do this sort of thing in a solo game, or in an open world, do you get larger bountie'd ships with more players in a particular area? If so, where are ya'll hiding at!

Private group of 4 winged is best... Open will lead to bounty sniper show downs from long range rails ships...
Last hit kills and takes the bounty for that wing and when there more than 1 wing in open in an instance the very last hit kills so you can do 99.99999% of the damage but if the sniper takes the last 0.000001% you get nothing...
If in wing in PG all 4 players get the same bounty pay for the target as there no other wing to kill snipe... the issue then becomes wanted ship spawn timers are to long...

 

[LFCDino]

Any wings going spare :-D

Judging by the views on Twitter, there's not much enthusiasm for Viper PJs, so this could be an easy goal to qualify for, with relatively minimal effort. Plus, I bypassed getting a FAS, so it would be nice to take a shot at that and get lucky.

Edit: oh, top ten participants, not top ten percent. Well, that might be an aspiration too far.

You just gotta believe...

 

[Vetinari]

Well I dont even own a Viper let alone fly one and I dont even want one. But a paintjob is a paintjob so time to step on the bottom 25% again

 

[goemon]

i think the viper mkIII is a bit underrated here. last time i flew one it felt a bit even more effective than a courier in CZ

 

[AceMcKool]

Put me down for 2 new paint jobs & a free ship...

PLEASE tell me how do you get +100 mil in bounties in so little time.

I've been farming a hazres at Luyten's Star and so far I'm only at 15 mil.

Well, I don't know how long you've spent in the RES, but it's probably down to poor rng spawns.
Other Commanders may already have been collecting bounties before the CG started.

 

[Cmdr. Numa]

Almost 5 billion already, this will be over fast.

Since the CG started...

Oh... Well, I had no way of knowing this would be a combat CG. In fact, I fitted a rescue Python yesterday cause I was almost sure it would be a rescue CG.

Honestly, I don't care about the FAS at all. I'll be happy if I can stay at top 25% for both paint jobs.

I just wanna know how it's done.

 

[Go'Gen]

I did my part in this CG.
Signed up and delivered 1 mil bounties to help others with 75% margin... and I'm off to buy a FC and play with it a bit
Fly safe!

my guess would be stacking elite wing massacre pirate missions with target RR Caeli and shooting those ~63 pirates spawning?

To be honest I farmed a big chunk of that yesterday because I had a sneaking suspicion there might be a BH CG run by Sirius Corp today and was just lucky enough to be right for once.

But I've been having much better luck at the orbital installation Scarlet Copse Produce as it's spawning attack/defend scenarios.

3 lots of those 3 wave missions back to back just made me 26 million in Sirius vouchers with a Fast Scan KWS for all the bonus vouchers.

Drop in and park up at the installation, wait a few minutes for the mission message, pick the defending side for lots of targets and try to stay alive

 

[GraphiteGB]

Build matters for BH. if your in a cobra Mk 3 it takes a bit longer to kill power plants..
If your in a Frag cannon/PA pyton/corvette its faster but you burn through ammo and mats...
Rail guns and PAs take longer but combine with fuel plasma slug as ammo you can stay out there till your fuels low but you have to aim..
Laser only build takes longer but you dont have to aim much...

If you get the stealing at installation event, youll have Anacondas and pythons that sit on the back side just asking for Powerplant kills as they barely move...

 

[Cohen the Worrior]

The Viper Mk III is meh and the paint job is nice. But what good are they if you never fly the ship?

 

[GraphiteGB]

Extra theres is even the system were you double cross the pirates and turn on them after selecting their side to fight for, this avoids a lot of being shot at...
but it requires adjusting each target that goes from green to red..

I don't have a KWS yet. Is it a must?

 

[The Golden Knight]

Working on it, Top 10% already. Very easy. XD

 

[Speedcuffs]

I don't have a KWS yet. Is it a must?

It's extra free credits.

 

[0ldSkull]

Not unless you play to run it E-rated and with only 2 small pulse lasers

I dare ya.
