Thargoid and combat rank

Is it my impression or after the fix of update 15 the combat rank gain for killing thargoids is realy slow or completly zero gain?
 
dangerous and above ranks are really slow at gaining/progressing ranks.

how many Thargoids you get. if you're Dangerous or elite + you'll need thousands normally.
 
I've been keeping an eye on this as I'm approaching Elite. In the last invasion cycle I have progressed from 52% to 64% so it's definitely moving. I've noticed that on inara it doesn't seem to update when you import data. Ie I just completed a session with over 100 scout / interceptor kills this evening but on Inara it shows my rank was Last updated at like 5.17pm? So basically it's not moved at all today despite all those kills but I assume it will update at some point?
 
Just had some feedback from friends and all said any gain on the in game bar and Inara killing Targoids. Seems heavy bugged.
 
For me the Mercenary bar is moving but the Elite ranking display for my hired ship launched fighter pilot has been
broken since Legacy was separated from the 4.0 versions. In Legacy the display is correct but I'm not playing there.

It’s not a bug. I asked about it on the site itself after the increase for the badge, and the answer was that the data being imported was now lifetime, not just recent kills. A more detailed announcement should be coming shortly.

Right, well, that I then can’t say much to. Haven’t done any Thargoid fighting in a while, but I still doubt they changed anything about their combat rating, or combat rank progression.

I went from 17% deadly to Elite last weekend by killing 600 inceptors - 540 cyclops and 60 basilisk. Also make sure you're in solo mode so you are the one getting the kill and not some other commander if you're trying to rank up in open. If you're trying to rank up with scout kills then you'll need a few thousand of those.
 
Jeez, that's a lot of interceptors. Are you hunting them out or doing CZs? Planetary CZs were good for Cyclops gibbing, but you also have to sit about fighting scouts.
 
FYI: Safeguard Cargo Protect missions on-foot offer the highest Combat XP per minute.

Up to 10% Elite rank in 45 minutes.
I went from Elite II to Elite V casually in 3 weeks.
 
You need to kill millions or follow some peculiar advice like maybe poster above me that gets censored name and do it with a fraction of the effort. Why? noone knows. Maybe FDev is generally sadist and there is one compassionate dev that keeps loopholes going?
 
Commanders,
In a few days, I killed 12 Orthrus and 15-20 Scouts (in NHSS-4), but the progress of the combat rank did not increase (I looked at INAR). Why?
Is killing a targoid now not added to the combat rank?
