  • i want a better ship so i can explore the system further. I'm fed up of being creamed when i meet nomads and DK. happened in Sol, X3043, lower unknown, utopia.
    i dont want to join a clan yet so i get no "joinijng bribe".
    i have tried to get the best equipment i can.
    bull pup freighter apparently i should have asked for that. armour upgrade, level 10 weapons from sigma 13 etc, puny level 7 shield (no freighter shield upgrade found in Sirius yet). I got mugged for the first time.
    i cant enter hokkaido its a clan system so no super thruster then.
    I've been to Sol, cant afford the 'soul train'.
    apparently i shouldnt trade in custodian. So am i reduced to days of berlin stuttgard to build up cash so ican afford a better ship?
    where are they?
    why arent they available in sirius?
    i dont feel able to venture out of Sirius with any confidence of success.

    The best equipment is scattered all over Sirius, ask someone in-game, and I'm sure you can reduce your search time. Be advised, the best equipment is also the most expensive, so you'll need to use a capacious freighter to earn enough credits (fully-pimped VHF =$60 million or so).

    Clan systems are not completely inaccessible; just ask permission from the home clan members. Some charge a fee for access, others grant access on a case-by-case basis.

    Good news: once you get your full-up VHF, the DK & nomads will still be able to kill you handily; even experienced pilots need their skills & full attention to survive in the heart of DK & nomad space... :baby:
