[SC] a new player with newbish qestions

Hello. I'm a new player so far I'm 10 lvl and I'm still trying to figure out some things.
But I have a few questions may someone give me tips on them?
How do I make more udridium faster?
How does the ranking system works? (yeah of course I googled it first but I couldn't find any tips on how to raise it so here I'm)
Is skylab worth working on?
Is Clan necessary?

 

best way to make uridium is kill npcs such as cubes or bks, given that you a new, no point sending you to eternal gate you will not have the ammo or equipment to get far, ranking system works buy make ep and honor, doing galaxy gates, and missions, and 4-5 very good map are best ways to get rank points, skylab is a must, get to lvl 20 as fast as you can, do not use uridium to upgrade tho unless you are a millionaire clan is not necessary really, just helps in a way, for example your clan members can help with missions/quests, as you can see them online rather than waiting for random people to get on

 

Hi,

You can find some advice in a couple of threads from the Newbies section :
My Comprehensive efficient account building guide Updated for 2018
From zero to hero (guide how game should be played)
Some info is outdated, but it can still be useful.

Now to answer your questions :

You'll find a more detailed answer in the posts I linked, but farming NPCs is probably the best way. Which NPC depends on your equipment. At lvl 10 just kill anything in X-3 and X-4. At lvl 11 you will have access to X-6 and X-7 where you can farm Kristallons (or even Kristallins if you're not strong enough yet). Later on, Cubikons will be even better. Then it's just a matter of how hard you hit. Obviously the more damage you deal, the quicker you can farm NPCs.
Another way is collecting bonus boxes in PvP maps (4-1, 4-2, 4-3) while being cloaked. It might get you more uri than NPCs at the beginning, especially if you have a PET.

You can find how the ranking points are calculated on the home page, under "Pilot License", click "Ranking". Those points are updated once a day. The different ranks are attributed as follows : The first player of each company is "Chief General", then something like the 0.01% best players are Generals, the next 0.1% Basic Generals and so on, down to "Basic Space Pilot" rank that is owned by the last 20% of the server.
To get more ranking points at your level, simply do missions. You'll get plenty of honor and experience.

Definitely. As nemesis1 said, get it to lvl 20 as fast as possible. It will eventually be a nice source of credits, and the resources it produces will allow you to boost your weapons and generators.

It's not necessary, but it will help you progress a lot faster if you find a good one. Among other things, they can help you complete missions and give you some credits.

 

nemesis1, thank you dude I'll stick to doing missions and killing npcs. I've unlocked all modules on my Skylab but most of them are 5lvl and I don't see a way I can make credits out of it, I have no problems with the missions they are easy but low profiting I earn more by killing npcs than doing missions alright for the clan information I won't join one since there's not real benefit

 

Smoog_ thank you as well for the information I will check them out

 

ArticAxis you will not make any benifit while you are building the skylab up really, its more when it is built he means you can sell promerium etc, with your skylab try to have basic, solar and storage 2 levels higher than prometium, endurium and terbium, and try have them 3 atleast 1 level higher than prometid and duranium, which will be 1 level higher than promerium and xeno and finally sep as lowest, i say this because thats how they are produced faster. with your first 3 (prometium, endurium and terbium) try get the robots to build them faster, get use to doing it, and everything in skylab will always build faster.

 

Skylab upgrades do take longer the higher you go. I think the final upgrade from lvl 19 to 20 (on each module) took a week, but that was a long time ago for me. Definitely keep the Prometium/Endurium/Terbium collectors 1 or 2 lvls higher than the refineries, because if you don't then all of the Prometium, Endurium and Terbium gathered by the collectors will be sucked into the refineries, leaving you none to use for the next upgrade. That advice stops when you start to max out some of the modules at lvl 20, so you may occasionally need to turn the refineries (e.g. Prometid and Duranium) off for a while to let the supply of the 3 basic rocks rebuild for some of those final upgrades. When all done, get in the habit of starting a Skylab transfer (Promerium and Seprom) EVERY time you logout, so that the transfer will be done by the next time you login.

 

Raking in more Uridium:
Farming NPCs is certainly a good way. Pop the ones that are as tough as you can handle without excessive need to run away to repair.
I also advise doing the daily missions, maybe even every time you login. That is 7000 or 8000 (at least for me) uri right there, plus the uri from popping those NPCs.

 

Skylab, Skylab SKYLAB. Get those modules running! You'll be able to send 9,000 Promerium a day at least with just a Goliath. That'll be an easy 9 million credits a day without playing!

Here, I got an old guide for Darkorbit, you'll find a Skylab video in there, as well as tips to grind:

Guide to Full Elite

And here's another I'm still working on, so keep an eye on it! This one is [will] be more detailed and organized than the previous guide!
