Welcome!

Some of the tenets of Vendetta Online are:

- No Safe Place (gradients of relative safety, but not absolute)
- Always allow non-consensual PvP
- Real-time combat

Just to add to what Whistler posted, you should work on finding private places to mine. If you mine in a well known area, you have a higher chance of being found. There are sectors loaded with hive bots where only the most dedicated (ie crazy) miners go. Find some of those, and get someone to protect you as you mine. It will be more interesting for you, and players are less likely to find (and boom) you.

Okay? Your suggestion still goes against the game's primary ideal; it is a combat game at heart, and trading, mining, and manufacturing are there to break up long strings of combat and give us all something to fight over.

Or it's a mining game/trading/manufacturing game with combat there to give us all a reason to continue to gather resources. Some of the most exciting times have been trying to cross a dangerous system with cargo I really can't afford to lose.

Aye
Sneaking past all the rats in an XC is pretty exciting at times.😏

Liscences don't equal skill. Why dont you ask some people for training.

I play in VR and have no problem holding my own. The device you use should have no bearing on this, as this is your own choice.

Get good or go home dude.

Lol, besides the fact that there is no such thing as a 500 million credit bounty is kind of irrelevant (I should know, I hold the record since the bounty nerf @ 7 million ish), but if you have a bounty on your head then you are doing something to earn it (like killing people in monitored sectors).

This idea has no place in vendetta as others have pointed out. The simple fact is this is a combat game, with trading and mining. Not like me to argue with whistler, but it IS described as such on the index page of this very website! Heck, if you want a place that is a little safer, try Itan. Nobody goes to Itan, after all being stuck between Metana and Pherona it is kind of smelly. Like blow job said, get good or go cry.

"Not like me to argue with whistler, but it IS described as such on the index page of this very website!"

I agree - I was just making the point that there's other stuff to do, and trying to run silent with cargo can be pretty exciting.

"I respect combative players, except when they grief noobs like me."

You don't deserve special treatment, and playing the game the way it was designed to be played is not griefing.

at 4/4/-/4/- you can get a vulture mk3, neutron blaster mk2, and a fast charge power cell. I consider this to be the basic standard of a pvp ship, that can chase and travel. Even at 3/3/-/-/-, you can get a vult3, n1, and a heavy cell, which is still pvp capable.

If you just want to outrun everyone, get a hog2. if you are in nation space, running from some one that a strike force is chasing, run towards the strike force and see if you can get them killed.

and... as yodaofborg has pointed out... no one goes to itan. sounds like you are qualified to go to itan.
