12 Jumps and ~500 LS till I can go back to making money.


No no no! Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the help! I got another MT mission from 64A. I was more saying I wish it wasn't so hard to find the information online or at the frontier forums. I made sure to document what the mission types and settings are for the newest MT trip. Going to post them here in case they help someone else.

So, here's what I've found. Boom Time Delivery that has the Horizon Logo. At least, this is what my latest mission has. It was not for the dominant faction, and my faction rep is neutral.

Required level for the mission is very low. So rank isn't a concern, at least not in this case.

Ignore my pathetic bank balance. I've got a billion+ in ships that I leave fully equipped at all times.

Hopping around bubble selling my haulers and sidewinders. In a diamondback explorer, neat ship and i might keep it for bubble hoppignand planet scouting. Good scoop, 4a shields, one srv and o tons cargorack.

Also i need to visit my old home system a hundred or so ly from azrael. Several 20-140 ton carho missions paying around a million a mission. (Also helps most are imperial aligned and am allied with all of them)

So once am done with sellig bookmarkwinders iwill grab my python and gut out some internals to make money inside the bubble

Lol, I have a ton of those as well. Pre-2.1 mapping sucked.. I used Cobra MKIVs when possible. Such a lovely little ship.

I wish the Diamondbacks were better ships. They are one of the best designed ships in game.. but I think they are the wrong design for space. If a DB was launched from a ship, that would make more sense. They look like in-atmo planetary ships, not space vessels.

1 more jump to get my MT payout.

Main drawback o have with the DBX is internals. Could use one more. Class 3 or 4 i-d be happy. This build hops around laden 28ly.

Two pulse lasers and large plasma. Reinforced alloy. Most A parts but sensors and lifesupport is are D. Chaff and C class shieldboosters. Love it.

I knew what you meant I was just hoping for you personally that area wouldn't turn into a dead end.
Also after seeing and looking in depth, for some reason I thought I was jumping between systems but maybe it was just the planetary landing that threw me off. Totally forgot that Boulle and Cavalieri were in 64A. I swear there was a system jump though to something other than Marowari or w/e it is.

Glad they're sort of showing up though and hopefully the regularity is more frequent.

I had fun in my DBX. It's docked somewhere though and hasn't seen much loving since my Asp.

McArthur Base in Shasir has 21 missions for the federation. Potential mission spamming system, since there are many bases to go to. Besides, it's one of those amazing bases that I love to play to.

120LY back to Qwent.

Noted for possible future needs.

Forgot I had 6 tip-offs until I got to Ceos. :|

Are those tips from players, or some in-game system?

Doing state switching, and watching for any differences in the mission types I'd listed earlier. No new MT mission, yet. Finger crossed.

*edit*

So again the Boom Time Delivery with the Horizon logo is the mission that pays Modular Terminals. This time it's 64 Arietis Jet General though, instead of Arietis Front. Though, in between the last time, I did kill a wanted Front ship.. but my reputation with them didn't change.

Will be completing this delivery once the server comes back in an hour.

I couldn't say. While I have level 5 FSD unlocked, I can't craft it yet due to material shortages.
