  • This isn't a tutorial as in "How to smuggle effectively", more of an "Episode 1".
    Smuggling is one of the best ways to make money both early and midgame. If all you remember is one thing from this then all you need to know is keep your transponder on like a REAL PRO xXGamerXx

    Face-tanking a reaper when you have 360 degree shield coverage and no flux is what it's all about.

    Best way I found of making money is smuggling
    Just legally
    Since pirates have the single worst trade routes of any faction, they're always desperate for stuff.
    Just buy a ton of drugs from TriTacyon, and sell it to the pirates, or whatever else you want to sell. Ecou Beres (if I spelt that right) and Culan has probably the highest production of commodities that are illegal in most systems.
    TriTac is your best friend in the early game when it comes to getting high paying commodities. Sure you'll have to deal with tariffs when buying, but not selling, and sometimes pirates will buy for like 300% base cost so you can make well over 600k with around 1,000 drugs which is insane.
    Smuggling is great, especially when you don't have to worry about the whole smuggling part.

      Yup, that's what I do, I always buy everything on both markets at Echu Bres and sell to either pirates or pathers on the black market

    Thank you for this btw, the tutorial gives a lot of money. Heavy armaments smuggling is my best bet for money during the early game though. Low space, expensive, but has a high income if sold correctly, but also has high risk I had my 200 items got reduced to nothingness within 3 days.

    • @Stonecargo21
      @Stonecargo21  2 роки тому

      Personally my perfect trade route is to buy drugs at Echu Bres then raid either a pirate base or Hegemony, depending how far I'm in the game, for heavy armaments

    apogee's may be one of my favorite ships in the whole game, even after my HEAVY mod list. Really make up for that odd weapon mount placement with ridiculous flux reserves and crazy shields. early game they're good for exploring and late game shove hardened shields and tachyon lances on them and you're partying. best ship NA no contest.
