Blue, me and you have traded punches as well, and I can tell you know that even though you are higher, we have almost the same tech, aside from hull (little broke ass me only has 6k hull, but I'm a sab, so I don't get a fixer bonus). Me and you both need to freeze, and soak in as much resources as possible.

Are you sure? I remember you being just over rank 300, and I'm a lowly rank 284 :P

Just keep me away from the raw meat, I'm well cooked.

Get your defense up because I've go nearly double it. Your weapons and hull are excellent as is your energy. You've got over 1K more energy than me but that's because I'm slow to my ranking. Your production is a vast improvement over before. I'd suggest upping your defense until around 4K and then going with +12 buildings.

Please people, when you say that you rank slowly, give an idea of how slowly you actually rank. Every 2-3 days is not slow.

Hey Xzien, that makes our energy pools around the same... does that mean I slow rank too? I certainly don't go out of my way to like him^.

Always attack first, but I suspect you cannot afford thetacrons and would need some decks to make use of it. Plating is usually easier to fit the upgrade than defense, usually you want to go for the next tech you can afford. Hull is normally more beneficial than defense unless your defense is abysmal.

If you can afford the weapon and the upkeep; theracron weapon is the best one to do. It will boost your npc efficiency.

Defense is my first goal. Trying to get all 8 mods on. It's at 2700 now.

When I say freeze, I mean hacking, and maybe scanning for planets.

It's the decks I need, but I think I could cover the upkeep. First things first though.

I try to keep my decks low, and hence my upkeep low. I probably won't ever put Quasi's on, or get 12's on some of my planets
