Hi Guys

I'm failing/ giving up on the missions because I cant find black boxes, the right commodities, slaves, bad guys.. just about everything really.

Anyone got any tips for me please?

Cheers

Boxes - engines to zero, enter any wss that appear
Commodities - get Slopeys tool
Bad guys - as boxes but look in uss instead of wss
Slaves - don't do it they are illegal

Regarding "bad guys" I find it quite hard to make out the correct targets. There are missions asking to kill bounty hunters. How do I distinguish those from other pilots? Get wanted and then kill everybody who interdicts me?

Identifying pirates is relatively easy in comparison: Just kill everybody who is wanted - though not everybody of those seems to count as pirate.

If you look at the descriptions of commodities in the market it tells you which type of economy produces and consumes them, then set your map to economy type and you can see where the things you are looking for should be coming from.

Bounty hunters come up to you, scan you and then if you are clean tell you to move along, if you are wanted they will attack.

Identifying pirates is relatively easy in comparison: Just kill everybody who is wanted - though not everybody of those seems to count as pirate.

Pirates will come up to you, scan you and say something about your cargo.

Slavery is a very imperial profession - and can be more profitable than trading metals if you find a good route.

You need to be in imperial space though, federation frowns upon such practices...

Makes sense- thanks for that.
