Do you have advice on the best way to make money if im sitting on like 1mil and a cobra right now?

Resource Extraction Sites if you just want to earn money, or get involved in community goals if you want to get more for your buck. At the moment, there's a war up in 78 Ursae Majoris in preparation for the President's arrival. The main faction, the one I suppose, Alioth Independents, they are killing off a weak faction who was looking to disrupt the President's journey.

Although the bounty hunting CG is over, the war zone one isn't over for another 2 days. If you fight in the war in a conflict zone, earn cash, and cash in combat bonds, you will get a couple million in reward in a few days.

Now if you want to be a bounty hunter to raise cash, get out of the cobra. Get a Viper. Faster, more maneuverable, and strong. I personally prefer just Laser weapons (although they do less damage to direct hull), so I'd go 2x Size 2 Pulse, and 2x Size 1 Pulse.

Get good Thrusters. That's essential. They make you turn faster, and move faster.

Go to a RES, and kill people who are wanted. You'll get a lot of income. In about a half hour, I earn around a million credits. Work that up to a Vulture. With a Vulture, you'll obliterate tons of stuff.

Trading is safe money. Bounty Hunting is still effective money. I wouldn't do trading unless you want to chill and listen to an audiobook.

See my last post. Add me on Steam and in game, and I'll hunt with you for a bit.
