Profit from assassinations = 22,189

Just dinged Competent after a few basic RES bounty hunt kills. I checked after every kill, and haven't handed in the bounties yet so it's purely the kill count that's taken me from Novice to Competent in this instance.

 

[ChromolyRex]

Not sure how I got a profit from assassinations without carrying one out

I think there's a bug that resets your assassination kill count to zero.

 

[AndyHill]

This is pretty shortly after the fact:

Rank = Elite
Bounties claimed = 3002
Profit from bounties = 31,609,810
Combat Bonds = 8116
Profit from combat bonds = 78,836,000
Assassinations = 0
Profit from assassinations = 5,268,870
As yet unclaimed bounties (as not near relevant systems) = about 5M combat bonds

 

[CMDR Belus]

Money earned is an indicator of the difference in rank/difficulty etc of the target and is likely to play a part. If it was just kills then we wouldn't have this thread because it would be obvious as it is with trading rank which is based solely on trading profit and therefore totally dependable. Looking at the table now I doubt we will ever work it out unless Frontier decide to tell us or give us a clue.

Concerning my bounty earnings you made a typo with my stats in your table, about an order of magnitude. Also, if it is any of significance for your research, most of my kills were done in a viper. Seeing as I progressed pretty fast, maybe it makes a difference whether one is fighting in a python or a clipper instead of a viper or eagle.

Most of mine were in an Eagle and a Cobra. Switched to a Viper yesterday, just to test the difference between that and the Cobra. So far about the only bad thing about the Viper is that the medium hardpoints are too close to the center. You have to be pointing almost straight at the enemy for both to fire (when using gimballed weapons). Just something you have to learn to live with, I guess.

I also make it a point to kill NPCs above my grade. Those at my grade or lower just aren't a challenge, unless they pilot a Dropship/Python/Anaconda (still really aren't a challenge, but they take a lot longer to kill than normal and can do some damage back) or several gang up on you. Have had them do that lately, even when they aren't in a wing.

Boy, was the last few 100 kills stressy. With no idea as to how many to go and having past the point that many got elite it was really crazy wondering if the next one would be THE ONE. And I didn't even get a 'Right on Comander!' oh well. I did it in my head, which I guess is what counts.
.
Now off to do what many Elite pilots did of yore. Head off into the black to see the sights of universe, after stopping by the bar on Shinraza Dezhra that is.
.
Combat bonds and wanted player kills certainly seem to 'count' more than normal bounties as it took me longer to go from Expert to Dangerous than Dangerous to Deadly once I moved away from RES and NAV point killing to combat zones and PvP areas

took me roughly 1800 combat zone kills to get from dangerous to deadly. Was focusing on dangerous and up foes and big ships whenever I could.
