Grinding / Farming advice thread ? (Possible sticky)

I have noticed there are a great many threads decdicated to all manor of topics.

But...

There seems to be one missing!

Would it be possible for a single thread to be sticked which contains the current (as per release) Grinds and farming methods.

For instance.

A Res farming update (kept current by players)
A explorer farming update (kept current by players)
A Trading update
A mission Grinding update
And so on....


It would contain
Locations
Build suggestions
Profit per hour
Fun per hour (lol)

With other details as needed (IE in 1.2 what missions to avoid).

This would not only help new players, but also those who need to make creidts but do not have the time to grind in low Reward tasks. I explained res farming to a pretty new player, he made 300,000 in an hour as he did not fully understand the KWS or res resetting.

It would also help to advise players on the best way to "maximise" the potential of CG's or mission stacking.

Perhaps there are groups with training wings that could help.

Early in the game I was helped greatly by guys from Mobius though I am sure there are other groups.


I understand there are some players that HATE the concept of other players farming and grinding as it in some-way causes their heads to explode and the world to end. Yet this game is "Play it your way" and as such I feel it only fair that all players have access to as much clear and concise information as possible.

In fact the one area I would love to see more research done is on stats and load outs... (IE are 2x 4A shields better than 1x 6a - I think on paper it seems so yet in game the 6A just seems to work better).


What do you guys think?

i think you mean "playing the game", and there's an entire forum dedicated to it! :)

Edit: Check out the guide sub-forum. That includes trading guides, which will help you amass credits quickly. If you want credits w/o the effort, search for "rates" routes and/or use 3rd party tools (which I personally would stay away from, as you'll get bored quickly). If you want to bounty hunt, go to a high intensity RES and shoot fish in a barrel. Earning credits fast in this game is easy.. but not much fun.

The better alternative to all of these - is just play the game and focus on having fun. Variety is key. Small and I'll-equipped ships help greatly. That will make the experience much more enjoyable and ensure it has some longevity.

For the most part the advice on here is exceptional, yet it is a lot to go through.

The mission issues have upset a lot of people, and it appears a simple meta update is still needed.

I was not even aware of some of the content in the game, I am still unsure to test convoy beacons as it may ruin rep for instance.
