Hello everyone...
**Disclaimer**
I spent a lot of time googling "ED first ship purchase" - "ED what ship to buy first" - Etc. Etc. and didn't find much assistance.
I also spent time searching the forum and looking through the Noob section but I didn't find what I was looking for there either.
So I apologize if it's out there and I just flat out couldn't find it.
I have only run a handful of missions and a few trade runs. I'm enjoying doing a little bit of everything and probably won't lock myself down on "I'm a trader," "I'm an explorer," etc.
So my question is what's a good ship to set your sights on for that first purchase, what cash reserves do you want to set aside for outfitting the new ship, and where should you look to purchase it (IE do the costs for ships vary from system to system).
I realize the answer will vary based on "what do you want to do?"
I'm looking for insights from folks who focus on different aspects of the game.
IE - I focus on trading this is the progression that I found worked for me... I'm a jack of all trades this is the progression that I found worked for me... I'm a BH this is the... you get the idea.
Did many of you just hoard the creds and go straight for the Cobra?
Were some of you just dying to get that first ship and bought the first thing you could?
Thanks in advance for kind and helpful responses!
