Draconis 17 question

Postby Mongorians » Tue Sep 13, 2016 9:07 am

CMDR's,

I have been busy on the grind over at sothis/ceos for a little while now. I am currently hoarding credits to get a decent bit of rank towards Rear Admiral. By chance does anyone have a rough idea of how much credits would be good to travel there with? Thanks

Might as well have proper corvette money while at it. So around about a billion.

I hit 17 Draconis as an Ensign with around 800 million and left a rear admiral with 650 million but i set my donation cap at 300k, you can get away with spending less if you stick to the 25k and 50k missions

Just my luck. Of course it would be in lockdown. Back to Sothis.

I believe they have also nerfed the donations, my last visit all donations were in excess of 200k, even with refreshes I very rarely saw 25k,50k.

More like 200k, 450, 750k,1Mill - The overall cost would of been crazy.

Yeah, It changed with the 2.1 update. Although I have seen donation missions with the cost in the 25-50k range. Just few and far between.

Think I spent less than 6 mil total leveling from midshipman to Rear Admiral, but then I did it in January or something...

I honestly think they took the old values and multiplied then with 20..

Which is why I am heading there ( once it's no longer on lockdown ) with around 450 million just for grinding the reputation out.
