Imho there's 2 things to do in the Teladi zone

Complete the UA mission for the achievement unlock.
Dock at the overwatch and install the Heavy Laser & Mk III laser.

Once those are both done, you can largely forget about the zone because for the most part it's crap.

OOZ patrols are really the only option you have if you want to continue with automated trading, and that risks losing standings with the Teladi.
To maintain good relations you will need to make frequent visits to the overwatch and complete any combat/patrol missions they have.

Titurels are classified as armed traders, not destroyers. So yes, the pirates will attack them in FoO. The Phoenix is the only cargo-carrying ship that is safe.
Have a great idea for the current or a future game? You can post it in the [L3+] Ideas forum.

X4 is a journey, not a destination. Have fun on your travels.

Are you kidding ? There is a reason it's called Fields of Opportunity. I made a fortune trading

from the Teladi.

My trading ships kept getting attacked, so eventually I waited with one of them and boarded the attacking Phoenix. Now I use it for trading. Much slower, but much safer. Lost 20 rep with the Cartel, but they keep attacking friendly trading ships instead of my Phoenix. :D

I used all these credits to start building a Ship Tech Fab. I guess eventually I won't need the Teladi anymore (but I haven't started any mission there or explored, so I still have more to look forward).
