  1. Hey guys/girls,

    I have been hunting Kristallons for a long time as a best way to earn fast credits. Also, I have spent some time on 5-2 map with friends, and I got some feeling that if you are in group 5-2, it is a better place for faster gaining credits.

    Basically, I just wanted a feedback from you, how do you grind fast credits? And please, ignore Cubikon :) (I have no interest on those, really).

    Regards

    SOLO CUBES!


    Hmm, the only way I can think for making credits quicker than you already are is by using the uridium you make from the BKs to insta-send over prom from skylab and sell it. Annihilators are good for credits but the problem with them is they are less common in pirate maps than BKs in an x-7 map so would be slower credit making overall.
    But really though, solo cubes + using cube uri to insta send and sell resources could make you billions of creds very quickly.
     
  3. Thank you @Okapi32 for the fast reply. I know that Cubes can make insane amount of credits, but on my server they are really camped by strong players, so I just don't want to loose time on them.

    For a long time I have been "solo" grinder, last months I am in awesome clan so that's why I started this thread: looking for an advice from more experience players what can be the awesome new way to grind credits in groups. :)

    It's the same for groups to be honest, if something is good for at making credits solo, it will be good at making credits in a group - if you are simply thinking of NPC.

    Alternatively the only other decent way to make mass amounts of credits as a group is to grind out the LoW gate then use the uridium reward from LoW to insta-send resources from skylab and sell them.
    If you were going to make the "uridium to credits" way your main process then you are just best of boxing in bmps and every 1.2k uri you get just use it to send over and sell resources, however that's not really a group activity.

    For example if you have a citadel and premium then just spend the time on bmps to collect ~14k uridium then swap into the citadel with 9k cargo space, send over 9k prom 11 times and sell them for 99,000,000 credits (assuming you have over 500k honour).
    Then if you really wanted to go mental with credit collecting you could do the same for Prometid and Duranium for the potential to make like a couple billion credits a week x)

  5. I always like your post cause every time you write something, I learn something new!

    Thank you for the advises @Okapi32! I wanted to ask about LoW too, but there you go, you answered it. So, this is the way how people do billions of credits. I guess it is the time for Citadel :D

  6. Yeah basically what owning said, send with citadel if you can, and I personally if I need feeds farm deadly battlerays in aegis as they give 2.7 mil creds per without cargo, then I just change hangar to goli in 2-7 bk for 5 minutes then go back to whichever map deadly bray is in. gets me very good credits, especially if you hit hard enough to not use ecos. Ecos are not very economical when it comes to farming unless you're a noob, and then... Still not very economical but the extra damage is nice. The main things that give creds are:
    Cubes - hard, decent cred payout, very good honor and uri.

    Deadly battleray - challenging, best cred payout decent uri payout.

    Annihilator - Relatively easy, so so cred payout, good exp payout, bad uri payout.

    Kristallon - Very easy, decent cred payout, so so uri payout.

    Also if you can get the pet trade ore module. It adds 30% to the sell value which when using citadel is a big chunk extra.
     
  7. Me and my brother would sometimes kill BK and BBK for a few sessions with a CBS up in 2-7. we would have the CBS set up so we can just sell credits instantly right there in the map even though I had the cargo trader from pet, my brother did not have one so he would just sell his cargo at the CBS. Always pick up your cargo. Also only refine it to prometid and duranium if you want to take less trips in selling the cargo.
