I have access to Shinrarta Dezra/Jameson Memorial, finally. Having gotten my Exploration rank to Pioneer (20% ish), mostly through the Quince passenger mission exploit (if I’m honest), I was struggling to get it to go much further in what I consider to be a timely way. So I did the only sensible thing… hit up […]

Corvette this weekend? [RQU]
Having made it to 24% Post Commander Federation rank yesterday, I figure with a massive chunk of passenger mission grind in Sothis (and a good deal of luck), I can make it to a Corvette this weekend. by
Gaming rig is back up and running [RQU]
Just a Really Quick Update to say that after a couple of nights of (frankly) hell, my gaming rig is back up and running with ED and all my chosen tools installed, and I was able to comfortably complete a data delivery mission to test. by
Rank Grind; That’s Duke PantsManUK to you…
Long time coming, but thanks to the Quince passenger mission loophole I was able to rank grind myself up to Duke for the Empire. I have a shiny new Cutter to go along with it (and a Beluga for the passenger missions). I’ve also been (somewhat in parallel) grinding Federation rank. Made it to Warrant […]
Progress, of a kind
Well, I’m out of the Python and onto the space brick – I can see why Masark hates the Type-9. A weekend of trading in the Python got me close enough to the quoted 110 million credits (I made it to 105 million) that he advises for purchasing the Type-9, so I figured I’d make […]
Say hello to my little friend
IT’S OVER! The Imperial Rank Grind is done (for the moment). I now own an Imperial Eagle (Little Boy), Imperial Courier (Thin Man) and an Imperial Clipper (Fat Man) – do you see the naming pattern? 😉 So, it’s back to the trade grind, just not tonight. by
Website news and rank grind update
I’ve updated the underlying OS on the website to latest Ubuntu Server LTS, so WordPress is now running on PHP 7.0 (and may indeed be a little bit faster than it was before). Otherwise, same nginx and mysql, so we’ll see. And the rank grind goes very well, I’m sitting at 89% and don’t intend […]
Imperial rank grind update
Quick update: Long day at work reduced me to a single 2-hour play session, at the end of which I was basically falling asleep in my headset 🙂 Long story short; 25% Lord (mostly thanks to a metric tonne of data transport missions, and a 200 ly smuggling mission I didn’t realise I had picked […]
Fed up with trade grind? Try rank grind…
Having (finally) made it to step 7 of Masark’s Guide, and run a good few hours of loops, the trade grind was getting to me. I decided to switch over to Imperial Rank grind instead: what’s the point in having enough cash to buy all the Imperial ships if you can’t because you don’t have […]
The (trade) grind is real
Ugh… So, my goals for E:D H were (I thought) quite simple: get all the Imperial ships. There were (I thought) only three (turns out there are four, the Eagle has an Imperial variant, which I do now own), and while I knew full well that you needed particular Imperial ranks to get them, I […]
