@@ChaoticNeutralOrg managed to make about 2.5 in around half an hour in a mustang alpha doing VLRT bounties in Pyro. Killed one at an asteroid cluster and every time I killed the bounty for 50k, it respawned a new contract at the exact same location. Completely removed the part of the loop where you have to travel between targets, so it was 48k pay out probably every 30 seconds for a good half an hour shooting single seat fighters out of the sky as soon as they loaded in. I'm flying a Sabre now after two sessions of rinsing through VLRTs at light speed 😅
@@ChaoticNeutralOrg nope, go to Pyro IV and look in mobi/contracts/salvaging there will be a mission with a 200 000 aUEC fee. the most one has payed out for me was 11 million aUEC after selling the cargo
there are multiple ships at location circa 12 ships, Hercules, caterpillar, reclaimer, mercury, connies, (but connies never have cargo) freelancers and more, even a free working vulture lol
@ChaoticNeutralOrg Man, Maze is hard to come by, and it's really the only drug worth much of anything in 4.0. I'd mention a tip to make the combat portion of these missions utterly trivial but, don't want it spread all over YT. I guess it's worth it if you find like 100SCU of Slam, but boy do I miss the good ole days of Maze in ERTs. I'm just hoping I'll hit the jackpot one of these missions.
100% you can, but its just time consuming for us. We clear our CS through Kareah or just before we log surrender. When pro Tems are actually working we most likely will take down the coms, but atm they are not so its not really much risk till its fixed.
@@ChaoticNeutralOrg we've been disabling com links in Stanton to grind the rep and found that some of us never lose the symbol that indicates the com link is online and active. Very hard to tell whether it's worked or not, or whether someone has turned it back on. Last time we tried I got a cs3 at the very first target I went to after disabling the nearest satellite so I would keep doing it as you are. It's very time consuming to turn them all off
It really seems like it has variables. Same server next mission same style mission AI goes from ehh to crazy. Server FPS was the same. Regardless server performance has made AI much more responsive which is great. Makes it much more fun
"Weapon insurance" is not a thing and CIG still considers this an exploit until they say otherwise or announce this as a feature. Personally if they can make that system work without the duplication bug then it would be handy for sure. Unfortunately that is also tied to the dup bug that has to go away before launch or the economy will break. Regardless of what Foxy posted I would not as a community content creator promote any kind of cheating or exploit at all regardless of rumors about "gear insurance" or other obvious cheats. Great video and quite helpful as I have never done the Vaughn mission yet. Thank you! Keep up the good work.
Profits have been amazing on it, but the Ghex campers have been pretty steady atm, so if you do just watch out when you go to sell. We have been scouting it before we go for a sell after a couple missions.
They should inform us right away not week from now. I'm gonna. lose it if they are gonna wipe bc some people use something like that. i have grind like crazy without any exploits and one mission away from ert and vulture, F7 i have got so far and now i save to Taurus. soon half way there. and some youtuber talk about possibility of wipe is crazy. and CIG doesn't give us any information even tho it's pretty clear they already know about it. but mean while im not gonna use anything like that.
Enjoy it. As soon as player bounties work again this will be waaaay more difficult
Agreed. It is not going to be like this for long. But ERTs in Pyro you can hit up and they are 166k per. Ez 1-2mil an hr right there

Just shut down the coms so you won't get a crime stat
@@loadnlock357 Sure can, but thats the fun part being hunted (well not so much currently)
The cargo in the ships salvage mission for xenotreath at Pyro IV's clusters pay out more (weevil eggs & slam) and no reputation grinding needed
Are you talking about the paid salvage missions through Citizens?

@@nomaddennis Connies DO have cargo in the tarus hidey hold. I have found eggs etc in their. Its not scannable so wont show up.
@@ChaoticNeutralOrg Okay thanks, will test if it works in these missions
You see any Maze drop? I grinded bounties (not Vaugh) to ERTs, and I haven't seen any yet.
we have seen 2 SCU of maze only once so far
out of prolly 50-60 Master level vaughns

I want that payday!
Why don't you disable Comm Arrays as people used to do in 3.24 to not get CS from Vaughn missions? Is it not possible anymore in Stanton?

@@iKennectz We had that as well when we tried the other day. Bugged atm
the AI hasnt changed btw, its the server tick rate that improved, and now AI can actually work

Im solo in a Constellation Andromeda...are these doable solo in that ship with the new AI?
They are it may be difficult but i have been doing them in my tarus
@ChaoticNeutralOrg cool, but you able to do them solo. Sweet
@@adamtucker6759 Yes, We both have been able too, but Sometimes they do get us when the AI goes to insane level at times (mainly against Hammerheads)
Atm the prisons are also broken in 4.0 so try not to get arrested or youll be stuck there till they fix them.
Just server hop i do that alot hah 😂
yea like spacepollo said, server hopping has been working.
unfortunately I am not getting any Vaughn missions at the moment. this was my favourite loop before 4.0
Try going to hurston for the starter mission to pop
I been scared to do em with everybody gettin stuck in prison
I dont disagree. The pucker effect has been real a few times tbh lol
does every single vaughn mission gives you a cs? even the lowest paid ones?
Yes. Unless you take the comarrray down in that area
I got 103 in neon and 18 gasping weevil eggs
nice! big money, no whammies!
Ngl since 4.0 dropped Vaughn has disappeared from my contracts apart from the very first mission which I completed
yea it seems you have to do them over at hurston, the crusader ones werent spawning, worked for all of our guys
@ I’ll check it out then 👍
❤
Don’t sell it at grim hex just go to devlin’s or brio’s u losing more than 5k per SCU if u go to grim hex
yes, but, they dont take 32's and we are seeing ALOT of 32's. saving up the smaller ones is a great idea though
@@ChaoticNeutralOrg ohhhh yeah that’s right forgot about the 32s
32s can only sell in pyro right?
@@adamtucker6759 grim hex can buy them
