    • Trade Routes...


      I know this has been discussed before, but it's about time I refresh my memory and find some good trade routes. Although I normally stick to robbing renegades, investing in the commodity exchange can often be just as profitable.

      So post away with some of your favorite trade routes, and share them with everyone else. 😉

      (I've also posted a similar topic over at the Escape Velocity forum)

    • Hmmmm,

      My favorite route would have to be from Omn to Telnan with meds, equipt from Telnan to Pax, and crassworms from Pax back to Omn. I really like this route, its comparativly safe and it gets you lotrs of cash. My second favorite is just meds from Atlantic station to New Calcutta. The third one I use is the dung hauling run, you know from Atlantic station to centauri with fertalizer and back with food.

      Blah Blah Blah and stuff....

    • I haven't really tried looking for superior trade routes. I always brave the Thehir-Gribn to accumulate cash via trading; probably because I get to blow away Renegades while doing it. 😛

      If you have a LOT of cargo space, buying Munb leaves @ Munb and selling them at Himgro can yield a nice profit. I think you can also make a profit buying medical supplies at Himgro and selling at Munb, so that's a good two-way route, albeit a long one.

      Other than that, I really can't say.

    • Thanks for those routes, and the info.

      If any of you are wandering, I'm trying to collect trade route data for a info directory I'm creating for Saber Studios. Just post any trade routes (that make a profit), and that will help me out plenty. Thanks.

    • I like taking fuzzes from Feviry to Mira. It's ten jumps, but a lot of profit. 😄

      Agreed on that one, and here's a trick.

      Get a Cargo Transporter, and 6 Cargo Transporter escorts.

      And within 10 minutes of gamplay, believe it or not, you have the firepower to take down a warship.

      That's all very nice, but where are the guns?

    • Hmmm. Its not exactly a trade route but if I want honest money (as opposed to stab-someone-in-the-back-and-steal-theirs money) I tend to work for FE basing out of Sol. 75000 a time isn't bad and you can haul Med Supplies at the same time.

      The above post can be concidered

    • I'd say there's really not much point to most trade routes with the Hatuli thing there; but it does make a more interesting game if you use others. That directory sounds good, be sure to tell people about it.

      If at first you don't succeed, use more duct tape.

    • Yes, this is blatant self-promotion, I know. (You all know what's coming, right? ;)) But all the most popular ones I know of are listed on (url="http://"http://www.andrew.cmu.edu/~dsghosh/evosite/missionsjunk.html")the trading routes page(/url) of my site. 😄
