Federal Rank help

Hey guys

A while ago i switched from xbox to PC - and lost ALL my ships, fleet carrier etc, triple elite the lot

So there i was a total noob with 10 billions credits :)
Ive been grinding out stuff for a while - but want my Corvette back

Is there a faster way to get rank than the CEOS / SOTHIS data missions? i've been grinding these for HOURS and dont seem to be getting anywhere

Whilst we're at it - it'll be Imp rank next - whats the fastest grind for that these days?
 
It was so long ago when I did these that I cant remember how I done them, however, one CMDR was sharing his method recently:

But I will share where I did my Empire rank micro-grind

My triangle loop was Mainani - Ngalinn - Avitas.

I used Mainani as the hub. This system produced data missions for both of the other two. Ngalinn only had missions to go back to Mainani, and Avitas had none to either station. But there were so many to Avitas from Mainani that it was well worth the stop all the same. These systems are about 230 light years from Sol. One leg was 3 light years, and the other, 20.

There are other places to do this of course, and one with passenger missions to the data stations would have been ideal, and why I took my bus at first. But for pure data trucking this is a good triangle set up. Any ship can do it. With a good combat ship you can mix in the terrorist and pirate lord missions to speed it up. These systems are about 230 light years from Sol.

One thing I really liked was so many landings at outposts. Portside operations and seamanship are a huge part of the appeal of Elite to me. Skillfully operating the ships never gets old. Landings are always fun and I've never used a SCA or DC, not that there is anything wrong with that. And outposts have the fun aspect of always having a different approach depending on where you drop. So it's more seat of the pants than orbitals and just added to how much I enjoyed it. Never felt like a grind ya know?
 
was sothis ceos data missions for, but that was years back.

for empire i had a place where i donated approx 300M and got rank....

but no, ED is the grind personified. just do it and forget about it afterwards.


(could you keep 10B from the Xbox account??)
 
ya if you transfer from x box to pc all rank permits mods ships owned etc are all gone the only thing transferred is dosh earnt that's it.
