following the Nova

Post by mikedi »

Why do I have to keep following the Nova or should I say how long do I follow it for . It keeps disapearing then I have to go to another sector to find it again. I have been doing this for over two hours, what am I doing wrong

If you get too close he does that. Theres a meter at the bottom that pops up with a percentage climbing that means your too close. You dont want that to hit 100%.

I think the 'safe distance' for me were around 8km. closer then that and he get jumpy ... so, target, get 8km from him and match speed (shift+f) and just follow ...

Do what I'm doing. Make the Nova Jump away. Cap the L's :)

I now have 5 full L's ready for escort duties. Ones that I don't keep I sell for between 100k to 300k.

Mission resets rinse & repeat.

Have fun.

What you flying?
and what weapons are you using to cap the ships?
There may not be Sun on the Dark side of the Moon. But remember... There is always light on the other Side.

Get really close to the station, 20m or so.
Took me a while to figure it out :)

I'm flying the Terran start ship with the start weapons.

Works fine, I've killed far more than I've capped. Sometimes end up killing all the L's, most time cap 1 out of four, sometimes 2.

Had 8 which capped with full shields (3 * 25MJ)
Had a few with weapons
