    *Click the "Thanks" button under the video to leave me a donation.* This guide was made by constantly practicing the last two betas as well as studying the "Keepers" pathings from all their twitch vods. A "keeper" was someone who had access to the game a full year prior to launch who were possibly hired by Ubisoft to make guides and help wiki's for the game. (I not 100% but that seems to be their job.). I combined my efficiency and theirs to make this guide so we can all level as fast as possible and get to the juicy good stuff. :)

    Hi, first time finding your channel. Thank you for making this, as you've covered so many things that I feel just wasn't explained well enough by the game itself.

You've helped immensely.

      I’ve done pretty much all the sidequests and stuff. Only the level 9+ quests have harder targets. Not really came across a level 3 quest making me take down a level 5 ship. Considering how they deal with level difference penalties.
      Perhaps there was a patrolling high level ship when you did the quest. Just keep an eye on the surroundings. If there’s a patrol that’s high level, then just hang back a bit. Watch a youtube video until they patrol past.
