I took out a clipper and was beating the stuffing out of the Anaconda when things went sideways. Sorry, but if you can't survive against the other 3 1/2 you might need to put the beer down and squint a little and focus :P

Went to visit Hutton Orbital, bought a few Hutton Mugs too. Turns out these are not worth anything.. Buy price was 683 cr per item, and now I'm in Lave Station, sell price per item is a whopping 11 cr. Oh well, not a huge loss, just a bit weird. I thought the price goes up the further you get from the point of purchase, and assumed I cannot lose any credits.
I play on PC, in the Mobius PVE Eurasia group.

As a Rare it needs to go in the Range of 100-160 LY to be worth what it can be. around 160Ly you are going to get its max price. Lave is not that far. try taking it Much farther afield. Say, Azrael.

Agreed. Even before I Beta Engineered the Weapons, I was killing everything in sight. Now it just happens faster. My Live Game Vette has the same Guns, and I played with the same loadout in Beta. Was quite happy but now I can see where engineering the weapons can make a difference.

Can't wait to see what the new blueprints can give me. But the FSD Mods are probably the Must have for any ship.

Only first level upgrades so far but they sure make difference

Having fun engineering Orion, my long range fighter diamondback scout. So far grade 5 FSD, grade 1 power plant and grade 3 dirty drives. Tomorrow, grade 5 multicanons, power capacitor and grade 2 beams. Finally grade 5 shields, hull and resistance augmented boosters.

It is a really fun ship to fly.

gimballed just does not work for me as the 3 on the Vette, going to go back to the turret (really awkward weapon position)

After grinding missions to earn my first anaconda (oh how I love that ship)

I have decided to hop in my explorer and make my first epic adventure to the centre of the galaxy!

As you can see below I am roughly 2,500LY from the bubble, this is the furthest I've been so far!
Image

A bit of perspective shows the distance nicely..
Image

Looking back from the centre shows how little I've travelled, and how far my epic adenture will take me!
Image

============================

If anyone has any nice spots to visit on my journey I'd sure like to take in the sights, I'm planning on stopping off at the eagle nebula on my way past, get some pictures of the pillars of creation!
Few men even considered the possibility of life on other planets. And yet, across the gulf of space, minds immeasurably superior to ours regarded this Earth with envious eyes, and slowly, and surely, they drew their plans against us…
