You can save a little over 2m buying the ASP from Li-Yong Rui controlled systems, but I still couldn't get a good explorer build under 12m. Trying to keep ASP close to 12M makes the jump range suffer as well so there you have it.

DBX: https://eddp.co/u/Xj2d5jEs 37.36Ly laden at 11.9M (10.1M if discounted ship)
ASP: https://eddp.co/u/GMMXDR5w 34.43Ly laden at 14.2M (12.3M if discounted ship)


when you sell a ship do you get what you paid for it?

if I buy the DBX now and save for the ASP do I lose money

You get your money back for the outfitting. When selling ships you lose 10% including all installed parts. Your best bet when selling ships is to remove and sell the components individually then sale the ship when it is empty.

thanks you for the help b00st3d I appreciate it.

I will strip my eagle of parts and then buy the DBX.

I might have to pay full price as I will be in Ratraii/Ogmar/Tenjin

You didn't say you were already in colonia. There is very few A rated components out here. Since you're already out here, get something with a lot of internal space and run some sightseeing passenger missions from Colonia Dream in Ratraii to colonia. There are three beacons at jaques station so it's easy to stack up a bunch of passenger missions.

I just realized you said earlier that you just started this game Jan 1st...You flew to Colonia the first 6 days of your game? In an eagle.

Color me impressed.

yeah you need the advanced discovery scanner and detailed surface scanners. If you scan all the neutron stars and earth like worlds on the way back you'll be 20-40m richer
