Anyway to make more than 80 mil an hour?

Postby BigJohnnyTwoToes » Sat Jul 14, 2018 2:23 am

My current credit farm is passenger missions in my conda from hausers reach in Robigo to Sirius atmospherics in so this. Dont get me wrong, 80 mil an hour is amazing, but is there anything else I can do to switch it up?

I know up until a few days ago you could do 200+ mil an hour running meta alloy but they nerfed it.

"How to make 300 000 credits an hour in elite dangerous!!"

Rule 2: No such thing as overkill, as long as there are reloads.

Yup..... the good ol' days when it took a guy 6 months to save up to buy a Python and a Conda felt sooooo out of reach. Now days the money flows like water in this game.

If there is I'm sure FD is equally interested to find it so they can make sure it no longer works.

You need over 80mil an hour?
What's the rush? There's no finish line, right?

I've been playing since Alpha, not even triple elite, and make enough money to not think it's a struggle, but I've never done a grind.
(Other than to Duke/Rear Admiral for the ships) or done any of the gold rush cash exploits. I'm in no hurry to play a game.

Now, if you could advise of a legal real world way to make a mere half million per month, that does not involve body parts or injury..... let me know :)

Robigo passenger runs can go slightly above that.

in Sol i also found some (single player) haulage missions paying around 7 million each for one jump only. It's not too hard to find missions that pay once you are allied with local factions in the right places.

It seems there's an unspoken cap at roughly 100 mil/h as Obsidian once stated in a video.. anything above that gets nerfed/fixed.

I’d be happy with half that per hour!

The current fad is mining Painite in HIP 21991 because it has double overlapping Painite hotspots.

Current Painite high sell price is ~1.2M/t and ~60% of the asteroids in the overlapping area contain Painite so it is not difficult to quickly fill your hold with the stuff. To maximize profits need to balance how long it takes to travel back and forth with how much extra the market there will pay.

People report profits in the 100-200M/hr range, I have not tried it though.
