Default Need to ask about NPCs for a lvl10

Hey fellow pilots I need to ask a nooby question

I am a level 10 goli nowhere near FE got some Flax, 2 LF3s and a BO2, that's as far as I go FE wise. I'm stuck in an endless, slowly decaying circle of Kill NPCs > Buy ammo (make a loss of about 50-100k) > Kill NPCs > Buy ammo (loss again) and I'm getting tired of it, considering my Exp is raising at a snail's pace. I need to know which NPCs are probably best to kill for me at the moment, I can't kill Lordakiums yet. So, the way I see it I can kill:
  • Streuner
  • Lordakian
  • Saimon
  • Mordon
  • Devo
  • Sib
  • Little Sib

Which one would you say I should be trying to kill for next level/gaining creds/uri for FE equipment?

Thanks
Leroy

P.S. I know there is a topic on NPCs already but I think farming is different so correct me if im wrong 0.o

When I got lvl 10, I got to 2-5 (i am eic) asap, and killed big lords (lordakiums) all day until i got to lvl 11. I was shooting about 800 dmg per shot then (Yeah, never say never lol). If you find it difficult, you can enlist help from your clan mates. Then i went to 2-6 and cubed all day until I got to lvl 12. NPCs in uppers contribute a lot more to your growth than the npcs in lowers do.

Yeah, I tried a Lord the first day I reached 2-5 after a week of 'Are the bmaps clear?' 'Heloo?' *jump* *BOOM* but it took me down to 400 HP even with circles and then some kill stealer took it while I repped... so they are no go yet I think >< and my clan is giving me nothing tbh, no help, no protection... I'm just wasting 5% tax on them.

If they don't give you anything, then leave 'em!

The way I see it, kill what you can, which is why I don't help noobs in uppers when they ask for help on BKs. If they cant solo an alien, then I'm not gonna waste my time helping them.

Kill Sibelons until you get some more credits/whatever to get more lasers, then once you build up your stats AND confidence, move up to Lordakiums.

Regards,
Lith.

mmm, I tried that for a while but VRU raiding 2-4 and the same lowering credit amount took their toll-I had 7mill when I started lvl10 now I have 3.5mill I guess its the only way

As you get more lf3s your ammo cost will go down and you will begin to build credits faster.

If i was you, i would kill everything in the lowers first, go for the bosses if possible more EXP from them,

run and do all your quest you can in the lowers, like mordon quest stuff like that all good for exp,

but if your in a clan, ask for help, get another clan member to help you in the uppers, think you get a 75 lord quest when lvl 10 not sure can't remember

but a good clan will have members fly with you in the bm's and help you get kills of stuff your not able to kill easy on your own,

after all the more exp you get the clan rank goes up and your earning then able to bid and get FE


so stay with stuff in the lowers till you get a full set a LF3'S on your ship, or get your clan mates to leand a hand

good luck happy killing

in lowers, mordon are best bang for the buck.

Also, be aware that the more you refine ore, you "lose" credits in the porcess - you can sell prometid for less than what it takes in prometium and endurium to make it. Its a trade-off between the time it takes to fly back and sell and lose time killing, vs less credits.
