  1. Hello everyone, I am a returning player (I was playing in 2011-2013) and started a fresh account in global 3 - titan. I am currently pushing for lvl 12 doing missions and farming in x-3 and x-4 maps and I try to upgrade my skylab as much as possible. I have bought iris with uri and 6 flex drones to put lasers and maximize my damage as much as possible. I used a leonov, but since I got 8 drones I found out that I have higher damage output with diminisher instead, so I that's my main ship for now. I also have a pet that I try to level up and I use it mostly to collect boxes in fights.

    Once my skylab is fully upgraded I will start hoarding credits to bid for lf-3s, bo2s, elite gens and iris in auction. I want advice if I am on the right path, or if I should be doing something else for now and ofcourse I need advice on what should I be doing next? Should I keep farming lower maps when I get the equipment that I need or should I go to uppers to farm something else? Should I save up energy for a specific gate? Should I spent uri on logdisks or keyes or a ship? (I try to save up uri to get later down the road kamikaze for my pet and moth formation).

    Thank you very much for your time, I am looking forward to your replies and advices.

    -Don't spend too much credits on bidding for lasers and shields. You'll get lots of those, and better lasers from green/gold booty boxes. Bid for Iris.
    -You can access x-8 so now it's safe to spend time in upper maps like x-6 to farm cubes for EP and uri with other players. Keep farming these till you get level 17.
    -Build galaxy gates on weekends as spins cost 15% less uri then. Build Zeta gates and finish them on Sundays for some double rewards (such as log disks and booty keys). Zeta is the most rewarding gate early on.
    -Open gold booty boxes with keys every other Friday of the month. Check the calendar for when gold booty boxes are active. Gold boxes have a chance to give rare Zeus drone parts, as well as other good gear. You'll probably get a set of LF-4 lasers just from these boxes.
    -When you're level 17 go to your company's x-BL map. It's accessed from x-8. Try to find other people to help you complete the first ten blacklight missions. Those missions give you a powerful laser which is even better than LF-4s, and with a little help they don't take long to get.

    Try to ditch x1 ammo when you're getting lots of x2 ammo from building gates. At some point you'll never run out of x2, which is essentially double damage.

    Do events for good stuff. Ammo, gear etc. Battlepass events are usually easy and can set you up with a modest ship and plenty of useful resources.

    Dailies. Level up to the point you can do at least three o the dailies for starter maps. They give good rewards, and I have almost completed my tech tree just from doing dailies and getting log disks. I have only spent on Uri if it's necessary, esp for events and season. Dailies, and try to make some friends, or join clans that are active in doing events, for they give good rewards. Me, I'm just lucky that some my old buddies from back in the early days are still playing from time to time, and the Spanish people are really kind, prompting you to join them if you have HADES gates, or if you want to complete them. Asking for help is a very open and good option. I've been helped by even those of other companies to complete quests. And just like during the early days, it seems most people have never forgotten to just chill and collect together in Palla maps.

    Priorities:
    • Skylab - prioritize Basic, Solar, and Storage module. Prometium, Endurium, Terbium, must be at least 2 levels higher than Prometid and Duranium Refineries. Prometid and Duranium must be 2-3 levels higher than Promerium Refinery. Xenomit Refinery should be higher than Promerium.
    • Auction - once you have your Skylab set up and Promerium running, send it to your ship until you get enough Credits to bid Cargo Bay Expansion. Expanding your Promerium gain. More Promerium, more credits. Use it to get yourself the Goliath, and combine it with the Cargo Bay Expansion for more Promerium yield. (I recommend the Citadel in the future for 8k of Storage) Send and Sell til you are able to bid all the necessary items for extras.
    • Generators and Lasers - now that you have decent Credit flow, keep bidding for G3N-7900 Speed Generator, SG3N-BO2 Shield Generator, and LF-3 Laser. Yes, back in 2010's all 15 of these two are the basis for "Full Elite" in our time.
    • Dailies - Daily missions reset daily and they give good rewards. Three of the missions are the "easiest", only targeting lower map NPC's with rare higher map missions. These three alone give you 4k Uri daily, and other rewards ranging from Log Disks, Green Booty Keys, Jump Voucher, and Galaxy Gate Energy. (Back then I used to build Tech Tree with Uri. Now I built it halfway with just the dailies, leaving me more room to buy and use Uri elsewhere like spamming hundreds of thousands of Uri for GG spins)

    NOTES:


    ~Credits not generating enough? = Increase Honor

    More Honor = More Value when selling Ore.

    ~I recommend using Dailies for Log Disk and Tech Tree. Using Uri on Tech Tree is a waste of Uri for me at least. Log Disks may cost only 300 Uri, but they'll start costing you hundreds of thousands of Uri as you get higher. Something you can use on GG to get drones and more rewards.

    ~Do Galaxy Gates during weekends for double rewards in
    Experience and Honor. The faster you save Uri, the faster you build gates. The faster you build Gates, the faster you get EP and Hon. = Faster leveling and faster generation of Credits as the value rises from your Honor.
