I am able to complete Hideaways now with the Incursus and 2 civilian gatling guns + 1 drone. I can get into a destroyer now, but can't afford it or the guns. I'm sure I will loot some guns over time.
I could be in a cruiser by the end of the night, but don't have the medium drone skill yet so could only fly 3 small drones.
It will take me a while to earn the money for a cruiser. I should aim for the destroyer. Going to run a level 1 security mission now with the Incursus. A few of these and I can get the destroyer and try level 2.
The armor repairer I looted is making a huge difference and allowing me to complete these L1 missions. The Incursus only has one drone though. I need the Tristan which can fly 5, though I can only use 3 right now, it would effectively triple my DPS now.
I have been getting the AIR rewards which have been helpful, but I forgot the career agent tutorials still exist. Those give you ships and even a destroyer at the end and they're easy. Time to do those!
I just picked up another pink disruptor worth 5 mil. I could buy an Algos with that but I should get one from the career agents. It gets me closer to a cruiser though.
I just finished all the Enforcer career agent and I got an Incursus in the end. Sitting at 8.1 mil now. Not far from a Vexor and I could afford the Destroyer right now. I am going to do the Soldier of Fortune and other career agents before buying anything else though. I will likely get important skill books and ships along the way.
I'm working my way through the AIR career program stuff. It's a nice way for beginners to figure out what to do.
I finished the Soldier of Fortune one and next is the Industrial Producer. I'll work on the rest of them too.
WOW, I just got a 50k skill injector for completing AIR achievements and that completed Destroyer skill, cruiser, medium drone, medium turret, AND Drones 4. Now all I have is Drones V to train for 9 days. And right now I can fly a vexor with 4 medium drones. I still haven't flown past a frigate though.
I did the production career agent and have a Venture now. I am doing the AIR challenge to just mine some rocks now. The skill points from the AIR program is insane.
I finished all the career agents and have 18.6 mil,and a collection of ships. Is it time to make the trip to solitude? Or should I stay here, and work on the AIR program stuff and do the Sister's arc? I think I will work on the AIR achievements since they offer massive skillpoints. On the flip side, I could do most of them while down there. I will attempt a run down there in a frigate. No, just a shuttle.
Ok, flying there in a shuttle was no problem at all. It warps so fast and there are no possible bubbles.
I picked up the gun and ammo blueprints along with a small armor repairer. With the Tristan blueprint, drone blueprint, guns and ammo, I am totally set. Though, I could probably do with just the loot that drops here and not have to make anything. Plenty of cosmic anomalies out here to do.
Added Medium hybrid turret to skill queue. Need medium drone skill.
Queued up Gallente Frigate 3 and Gallente Destroyer 3. Need to make 1 million ISK to buy Gallente Cruiser skill. All I have right now is the starter ship. It will take 1d12h before I'm ready for cruiser skill. So I have that much time to go make 1 mill and start the skill. I will do cosmic anomalies and rat to earn that. Maybe do a mission or two.
I tried to do a cosmic anomaly in the starter corvette wtih the 1 civilian gatling gun but it was too much. I should have done a hideaway instead of a burrow. I'll try the asteroid belts.
The belts are much more doable, but there are slim pickings in this starter system. I hope to loot some blastesr and an armor repairer to sustain better.
Even the hideaway is too much for a 1 gun corvette. I need to upgrade quick.
I realized if I trashed one corvette after stripping it, I can get another and ahve two guns. There's an upgrade. 3.7 to 7.4 dps. I also realized I can fit 2 hobgoblins in the corvette. They are cheap I can afford them. This has made a huge difference. 75k for drone skill though and I can't afford that yet.
After reprocessing a little bit of loot and selling it, I was able to get the 75k for drone skill. 17 minutes to train. Then DPS is 17.0. Much better than 3.7. I should tear through those hideaways then… Ok for a 15 minute break.
The drones do insane amounts of damage at this level compared to blasters. Getting drones to level 2 now so I can fly both in the corvette. Then I should be able to complete these hideaways. I almost finished one, and picked up a 5 mil pink object but lost my corvette. I was able to loot it back though.
I reprocessed the pink thing and the Noxcium alone sold for 1 million. That covers the Cruiser skill. All of it sold for almost 4 million to buy orders. That covers a lot. Those things are valuable!
1 day to get into cruiser, but will still need medium gun skills. I'm going Drone 5 to get a full flight with the Tristan. I bought a Tristan BPO and set it to +4% material research. I need 50k more to buy Hobgoblin blueprint.
I got an Incursus as a reward for doing some Enforcer stuff. This ship kicks much more butt.
