advanced combat stuck?

May 05, 2004 randomize link
I am already sick of killing Drone II in S4 over and over 6 times in a row with no increase in bonus or nothing. 300 points for each 6 in combat. to get to level 5 I need to get 15k points, which will be 50 times I have to do it. I fear to think how many I need to do for level 6...

Is that a feature?

Did you try /updatestation ? I don't have access to the missions so I can't tell for sure that that is the way it should be.

Yeah, I've been stuck with killing Level 2 Drones forever. Are we aborting the missions incorrectly? To level up, I dock, abort the mission, and take the license test. I am 6/6/6/3. I've done that mission four times. Should I be messaging the bot instead?

You're doing it correctly, and it's not buggy. It's just not balanced yet, and there aren't any high-level missions in place.

you've been killing Drone IIs forever...
why are my missions like this: drone II, drone II, sentry, drone, sentry, sentry...
O_o. I'm not at a higher level than SirCamps

I've given up on missions... i just bot 18

I've given up as well. It's either s18 bots for me, or group missions. It just gets ridiculously tedious later on. Hopefully it'll be "fixed" soon, as Vlad is implying.

A nice group mission to play with the frigate would be nice...

vlad said there's a group mission now! :) I'll go check it out as soon as server gets back on -_~

yes, I bot in s18 and s17 too. however, recently there has been a great deal more people in s17/18, while the number of bots has decreased. gaining xp in s17/18 is now much more difficult! (it's really hard to find your own bot)
