get a cruiser and take it into 0.4 space and hunt rats made a couple mil tonight doing this. I run a Caracal loaded with 3 heavy missile launchers and 2 assult launchers.

basically I'd warp in to an asteroid field where theres a rat cruiser with a 45k bounty on his head and he's got a bunch of frigate bumbuddies (usually 3-5) with 10k - 15k bounties

then just orbit the rat cruiser at 35km and hammer away with all 3 heavy launchers. Target the frigates that come in range of your assult launchers (usually around 20km) and waste em.

collect your loot for some extra cash, and rinse and repeat.

beware though other players may attempt to jump you so this is best attempted early morning solo or in a group.

Nice. I got my Cruiser training down now so I can take my Blackbird out now and get a Caracal if I need some more punch.

Still debating on what to train next. Working on Cruiser level 2 for now since it was a 8 hour train so I started it before work and will be done when I get home.

Yep, even lil frigs can go out and collect pretty decent bounties in .4 areas. 3 or 4 frigs can take down a cruiser.

Was lots of fun, plan to do some more hunting tonight.

whats the range on missiles?

thx for the hint

ill have lvl 2 cruiser by the time im done work as well. I'm just about 6 million short of buying one

how longof a wait was cruiser 2 lvl?

for me it was 7.5 hrs

how long was the wait for cruiser lvl 1?

i still have 3 days on my frigate lvl 4

Cruiser 1 was 1 hour for me...and I have high Perc/Will which are the attributes for it

I'm driving around my Maller...slow but it can take some punishment.

5h for cruiser lvl2

I also have high perc/will

You can take those guys down in a decent destroyer as well. As long as you know what you're doing.

I have successfully been taking down NPC cruisers in my Merlin.

No time to play the game during next month. Cruiser 5 here we come.

Damn, train some damn Learning skills.

All the basic learning skills on rank 5 already (well charisma is not), plus +3 will/perc implants.
