Stoernbaker (or something like that...) Help

Post by The Ethereal Mango »

I'm referring to the Pirate that the boron special services want taken care of...

Is the reward for taking care of him better than his persuasion money?

I ask this, because my twin A.HEPTS do barely anything to his stations shields...

If you destroy his base,your Boronrank will go up a few %,which is very nice.

If your AHEPTs arent enough to destroy his base,use Hornet-Missles,which you can buy in the paranid-equipmentdocks or their missle factories.

13-14 Hornets are enough to destroy his base

I have the money to get the missiles, but is it worth getting them? I mean, A I'll have to fly Allllll the way to Paranid Prime (closest Paranid station) So It would take a while, or I could buy an Octopus and use that to ferry goods from there, but that would cost money...

Is the Boron special Services reward good? or should I take the pirates offer?

so the answer would be NO, unless you have got fighters at your side and destroy the base with their help rather than Hornets.

If you do the mission, you will get more missions from them.
If you take the pirate offer, that's it, just the money.

Beside's you can pick up Hornet's by killing enough pirates, and picking up their dropped cargo pod's

The Hornets you can get from the piratetransporter,which are flying sometimes around.
When you destroy one of these you can get up to 3 Hornets.

EDIT:@ Uncle:when you argee with the pirate Male Gi,you get some more missons,too

shoot the base and let the fighters come out. Fly towards the other stations and when they fire on you move so there bullets will hit that station. The stations fighters will come out and destroy the fighters and if your lucky the base.

Well, I bought the missiles anywho... It turns out I had 5 in my cargo bay to start with... So I'll nuke the base...

Out of curiosity, are there any special requirements for the Perseus Mission?
