Ships Unlocking Courier/Master Rank....

[Shadowscream]

Thanks for the advice on my previous thread
I’ve taken my Cobra to Summanus (Empire) to grind a few credits — making 350k+ on a run out here.
I also moved here to try and get my Empire Faction to Friendly and Imperial Navy Rank to Master....
—> This is so I unlock the Courier and some of the requirements for Tiana Fortune & Hera Tani.

Here’s my “Noob“ question: How exactly to I efficiently level to “Friendly“ and “Master“ Rank & am I in the right place to do it?

Thanks!

Just run missions for Empire aligned factions only where you are, it shouldn't take too long. Data courier ones are the best to go for and try and stack as many as you can. Then just keep going. Pick one station that has a productive board as your base though and focus on them. Always take the Rep rewards, ignore credits, influence or materials or anything else, all you want is the rep

If you happen to have a decent amount of exploration data sell it there too as that helps with rep too
