Hello CMDR's,
What factors influence what kinda of ships and the skill level of said ships?
I made the mistake to again take on a salvage mission for a change of pace. Ended up abandoning it. I just couldn't make a dent in the Dangerous FDL that kept popping up with its wing of 3 Dangerous Eagles.
I'm in a combat/multi purpose Python myself and my combat rank is Expert 1. (The mission suggested rank is based on exploration, where I'm Pioneer.)
4 against 1. Dangerous against Expert. I did try. Turned tail at 25% hull integrity (FDL was still at +/- 75%) and consider myself lucky that I didn't loose my ship.
I know I have the option to straight up run at first sight of a ship, but if that's the way the mission is meant to pan out, I'll stick to data delivery.
Thanks!
1 Which I don't agree with... Shooting thousands of Adders/Eagles/Cobras/DB's/Asps (with the occasional Condas/FDL's/FAS's/FGS's with the help 2 of local authorities) out of the sky in High RES's does not make one an Expert...
2 I wish all 15 of them would not always jump on my target as soon as I fire though... I'm not gonna learn much if the ship is destroyed after I shoot it only a couple of times...
