I tried to set hangar permissions the other day, but I can't get to that menu. Maybe I was trying the wrong way?

Hit Cruiser capable this morning... need to work up engineering to IV from 3 for better equip though.

I went on a lvl 2 today to earn a little money, test out the ship some more.
Was in the mission, 2/3rds shields.... weapons wouldnt move to the next target... ship wouldnt move... couldnt jump/warp/anything... sat there for almost 2 minutes, trying anything...
App closed, saying it had lost server connection. Came back, and was a pod.
Sigh. That was a fun 24 hours of cruiserness.

Yea. My destroyer got blown apart when I lagged to death. First fucking lvl 2 in the new MMOG & it's just like being back in UO.

Hint for today:
When using retail, use the same fucking tactic walmart and every other retailer uses.
Gonna set up a sell order to be at 10% below average for quick cash? Say it was gonna go at 3m. Put it at 2,999,000, doesn't that just look better, I gurantee the 12 year olds will feel the same way, and your item will clear faster!

Yup. And even at 2999999 it'd still go faster than 3000000. *shrug*

Went to the asteroids today. There's a collection of 0.3 systems about 5 jumps "left" of Sankk.
Was fairly uneventful. Saw 2 PKs, but they were just jumping through. Couldn't quite kill the 175k ships on my own very well. Teamed up with another guy driving a Caracal, and we cut through everything we saw like knife through hot butter.
The loot was still crappy, but the bounties were decent.

I put a second kinetic hardener on my ship (to match Troy) and I can do the 175K ships now. Have fought up to 3 I think, if memory serves. Have done 4 110k ships at once. I just fly out of their gun range and tank the missles while I fire my 4 heavies at them. Heavies make a BIG difference.
I got on arablast heavy launcher off a 110k ship. Worth 6.5 millionish. 1 AB worth about 1 million. Some random other stuff from 10k to 500k. 90% of loot is low crap. I've only done asteroid belts about 15 times though. If I could play as much as Troy, I'm sure I'd do as well as he does with loot.

What is a "175k ship?"

Pirates that have a 175k bounty on them. The ones that spawn in asteroid belts.

Crap loot can be very profitable!
Some of the items, the "Medium Hull Repairer" for example, can be worth 50k in refined parts alone.
