And I want faucet that pours out gold...

Why would this ship add anything useful to the game as it is. Are you even 15/15/15/15/15?

do you even know how long it takes to get to 15 combat...

I don't even want to start on that..., at least not now

Besides I think we might get a capship at that level :D

nahh the heavy assault cruiser clearly takes 40/40/40/30/10, since those are its levels in game. :)

me calculates how long it takes to get to 40/40/40 and starts whimpering at the thought of spending 20 years shooting bots every day for 6 hours...

heh try again rene...

I did those calculations last night. level 40 is ~44,000,000,000 XP. or 44 thoulsand million (Billion for americans like myself).

If you were to gain 10k XP an hour, it would take ~ 700YEARS of nonstop play, 24/7/365 to reach level 40. :)

Methinks... We should get Titans... Oh wait thats Eve Online... :D Well something similar. Who needs to dock at stations when you can be one? :)

Seriously though, this game should still be beta, it just isn't finished.

Actually, Person once put up a post ( see http://www.vendetta-online.com/x/msgboard/3/9071#104472 ) in the thread "XP tweaking thread" ( see http://www.vendetta-online.com/x/msgboard/3/9071 ) about having earned Combat Piloting Levels 7 and 8 in "less than 90 minutes" by fighting Valent A47 Assault ships using a Ragnarok with two Gemini Launchers and two Chaos Swarms Launchers.

If my calculations are correct, that computes to approximately 58,333 Combat Piloting experience points for those 90 minutes (assuming that reaching each level raises the needed experience for the next level by a factor of 1.5, and that going from level 7 to level 8 required about 35,000 experience points, if I remember correctly).

That would mean an average of 38,888.89 Combat Piloting experience points per hour, for a total of approximately 1,131,429 hours necessary to reach level 40 from level 8.

At a rate of six hours per day, that would mean mean approximately 188,571.5 days, or 516.6342 years.
