Heyo! I'm TheDoctorGraves, I like long walks on the beach, moonlit dinners, having enough money to topple local economies. flying big ships, and people who are "real".

In all sincerity though I bought Elite: Dangerous several months ago, and only played it for a few minutes before deciding I didn't like it, then about a week ago I decided to give it another shot and well...


^ This about sums up my reaction to it after figuring out how to fly

My end goal is to get the Anaconda and holy bejuebus am I looking forward to Horizons. I recently managed to get a type 6 following this guide I found on reddit. Some questions I have are:

- For people who are crazy good at trading, how much do you make an hour?
- The "world" of elite is huge, so what are the chances of me running into someone else?
- Any tips for a newbie trader?
- How stoked are you for bobble heads?

Thanks for taking the time to look at this!

Welcome Doctor!

Glad to hear you gave E: D another go. It certainly can be an unforgiving game from time to time.

Regards & Fly Safe.

Uhm... I haven't traded for a while... when I did I made about 5 Million credits an hour. I think that's fairly average? I've got more cargo capacity now...soooo.

A lot of trading depends on how much tonnage you can move. Unfortunately, the more expensive your ship is (more cargo space) the more money you will make.
