  • Whats the best weapon set up for PKing (like anyone is going to tell me this)

    Sabre is definitely a match for the Eagle. If your whooping Sabre fliers, its because so many noobs race for sabres. Since when does it have to be a circle fest???? Ya if you have the tightest turning ship you do that. But as a Sabre flier, you force your opponent to fly and fight your style. You both have equal shields but you have one more gun firing at him than the eagle player does due to forward facing turret. Run at them firing and go into engine kill as they approach and rotate towards them as the pass so that you are facing backward as they shoot past and you are shooting their but up. Then hit you afterburner to follow. or when they shoot past hit your turbo for a few seconds, engine kill turn around and then come at them straight on. That is your advantage in the sabre is more guns firing. I have taken out plenty of Eagles doing either method.

Sure. Going back and forth between 2 worlds sometimes can get you more, but this is more adventurous and gives you a ture of some of the interesting places. I could even do one doing a tour of the border wordls such as the tau, omegas and omnicrons... =)

  • Where to bribe CORSAIRS???

    Don´t bribe em! I went to New London, and found some cargo dumps with the stuff still hanging under neath. Shot a bunch of them and turned the cops neutral to me and the corsairs neutral to me. You can do this even an early level.
