Reward balancing

[Michael Scissor]

Bounty hunting NPC's in space:

-Risk vs reward is off
-Ammo cost for cannons is waaay off

Trading :
-Risk vs reward is waaaaay off for both trading and missions

bulletin board missions:
1 bounty hunt per haul mission would be optimal, now they're just flooded w overpaying haulage missions

Getting this from 1 day of playingm where one 10 minute haulage made 16K and running bounties was either waste of time/bounty or waste of CR in ammo/bounty

and for pete's sake spare the L2P comments etc, just spare them, ok?

EDIT

Also jump ranges on "combat ships" like eagle and viper

Yeah bounties are very miserable

Most of the times i dont even get to repay the cost of the ammo

Thank god i do trade on the side

But yeah bounty hunting feels like a part time pew pew rather than a solid career

I would love to ditch my cargo for some more sensors and a fuel scoop and wander the galaxy hunting most wanteds


But seems the game is not yhat much "do what you want" as some folks here think it is

Off how?

Also there's no bounty hunting BB missions, just assassinations and merc contracts

Anyways, I don't see how raking in 40k in 15-30 minutes by bounty hunting with relatively cheap eagle fit is a waste of time.

I reliably get that much just for shooting the local pirate gang members at resource extraction sites in a high sec system.

Fit interdictor and KWS and go kill some 15k+ bounties that seem to be flying in most places?
