I appreciate the vibe. It's not about targeting every freelancer I encounter. My goal is to secure the ship, not the goods. Cargo like constellations, reclaimers, and carracks would be key. I'd likely see this about once a month to assess shipping routes, value, patrols, escape paths, and markets.
Avoid departure. Navigate to your profile in My RSI, then adjust the org tab to conceal your status as redacted. This keeps your membership private except for the org leader.
There was a comparable situation in EVE. If you completed many story missions (daily quests with significant impact on alliances), it might happen that certain NPCs began targeting you. The outcome could be extreme—even with a strong personal relationship, poor corps or alliance ties might lead to hostility. It’s a wild scenario if you unknowingly purchased something from a faction that disliked you. :lol:
Also hoping to negotiate with Miners, so if you're familiar with miners or planning to join, let me know via PM.
I'll probably wait to observe how game mechanics are completed in the PU, but a few friends and I intend to focus on trading and exploration. I'll probably mine and contribute to military efforts as well, so I'm open to setting up things like rotating escorts.
I’ll be acting as a trader, and I’ve invested in the merchantman with purpose.
