finally someone explains how that stuff works!!! I'm stuck at 99% Deadly for a few months, and now I know it's only worth killing above (or equal) my rank!! Thank you!!

Checkpoints in anarchy systems are a good source of Elite Eagles and Vipers

This is not the video I was looking for, but since I'm here I'll help a bit too. Destroying ships in conflict zones is fastest way to rank up to Elite. I went from Master to Dangerous in 2 days and I'm already at 15% away from Elite rank.

It's much better because first, you can choose your faction so you will know instantly who's friendly and who isn't and you don't have to scan any ships at all. Pretty much all ships are super high ranked, either same rank as you or one rank higher every time. And as you destroy them, you get combat bonds around 60, 000 CR per kills. If you do massacre missions, it can give you between 2, 000, 000 CR to 50, 000, 000 CR depending on how many you bring back and forth. Seriously, there's no better way to rank up in combat than doing combats in the conflict zones.

Very informative. Thanks so much for posting. I've been stuck at dangerous for a while and didn't want to be forced into thargoid hunting to be honest. I was looking for an alternative. This was very helpful.

Great video. I found using an NPC fighter pilot also spreads the rank gain between you both.

Just what I needed to improve my combat skill and enjoy the game a lot more. Thank you, sir!

Another thing to note for the credit farm part is about a month ago my buddies and i found a system with a compromised nav beacon and another system right next to it which would give engage and destroy pirates missions for the pirates found at the nav beacon. By the time i was allied and had combat rank of master i was regularly getting missions that payed anywhere from 5 mil to 10 mil a mission. After the most recent patch the only difference i noticed was a slight decline in missions and that the missions dont complete at the same time. Ie. one kill is for one mission. On top of that it would also give me fed rank since the missions came from fed mission boards. Ive noticed the same thing for other comp nav beacons so im not sure if it is purposely set up that way or slightly random. If anyone wants to check out the systems. The nav beacon was in Kashigaut and the missions came from COL 285 SECTOR SO-P c6-11 from Kippax base. If anyone happens to find an empire type one of this or any new info let me know.

D2ea you are the MAN! hats off... I mean helmets off

Not sure how much it will help people, but when there were CApital ships in Maia, I went there and went from deadly to elite in a single day. If you can find a conflict zone with a capital ship in it, just join its side and help it snipe the elite ships that show up. This was a few months ago that I got elite but it seemed to be working with my roommate in our home system just a few weeks ago.

Dude, not to get weird or anything but your voice and demeanor are calming and smooth AF

[cmdrcorvuscoraxnevermore]

Great video! Thank you and Cactus for getting into the analysis of the data. Your videos are greatly appreciated.

[Mario-uwuw]

this video needs to be updated! no cnb in anarchy systems anymore. at hozbase we also cant find what we want. so whats now the fastest way to combat elite? killing skimmers? also it would be great, if someone can transfer the sheet to each rank in percentage. so we still dont know whats the rank up goal is... how´s about that thargoid scout thing, does it still gives 4 elite points, when got killed? so if this is still present, im gonna do this..

[johnbent]

Thanks for this! I was looking for a better way to rank up in combat. I will put this to good use tonight :)

[SBBSBBZ]

Well, once i was in a four wo/man squad doing bounties for a CG. I got 1% -deadly- dangerous rank increase in 2 hours. I knew it was about the NPC rank, but not about the splitted up rank progression. So good to know, or was this mentioned in the manual?

[edmac]

Dude. Thank you. Subbed. I couldn't get my combat rank to budge much after I hit Deadly, and was wondering why.

[antwan]

Remember kids don't do drugs, and you can save 15 % discount on ANY modules or ships. Save credits, beat dead horse better, Li Yong-Rui.

[brianmolony]

Thank you. Your best video hands down.

[dannyc]

so basically wing up to get the same instance then at you destination unwing but still kill ships together WIN/WIN

[stnicholas]

Lovedu is an anarchy system and also has a compromised nav beacon

[anakinjovanus]
