I’m in Maia system using a test mule (“cheap”) FAS to work out a strategy for battling thargoid cyclops.

Let me know if anyone wants to wing up. I’ll be on most nights this week 7-10 PM ET doing this.

Update: I decided to switch to my Python that has 450 boost speed. Can't corner to save it's life, but has good straight line speed to get distance before turning and attacking.

I definitely need work on using the AX missiles. I was all over the place with trying to hit the Thargoid heart. Any suggestion on how to practice hitting it from a distance?

Just bought myself a T-9 with my earnings from rescuing refugees. Need to max out its FSD (no engineering) then I will be delivering the necessities to Weyn Dock to help rebuild.

Dumped 150 MCr into donations for Fed rank, then another 800 MCr for Vette "Chevy Sting Ray". Jump range of a sloth and maneuvrability of a concrete block.

I bought a Diamondback Explorer yesterday, fitted it out for exploring and threw in some engineering for good measure.
Then I went to the galaxy map, picked a far away star at random and set off to explore.

My goal is to find some star or planet that no one has discovered before. Any idea how far I would have to go for that ?
Well, the other goal, of course, is to get filthy rich from all the discovery data I will sell when I return :evil:

Depends what direction, if you go towards core or colonia, you might stumble on something at around 10k, but it's pretty well traveled that way now.

If you go pretty much anywhere else you will hit great swathes of undiscovered systems already inside <900ly of the bubble.
Simply avoid the touristy bits, like neutrons, black holes etc and major nebulas.

Although it might be well discovered I personally think the California nebula is well worth a visit and is barely 1kly away from the center of the bubble, so a dbx with ok range could do the trip and back in less than 45 minutes.

Hey I'm Thor -
People call me Bob.

Rule 1: Pillage. Then burn.
Rule 2: No such thing as overkill, as long as there are reloads.
