I got jumped by a FdL a few months back.
I was in a viper mk. IV. It would hit 410 on boost.
So I turned inside him and ran. Happily scooting away with no drama. And then I realise he’s catching me. No idea what his top speed was, but the weapons nailed me on about 4 volleys....

For anyone doing engineer unlocks, if you need Hera Tani unlocked (G5 PP and pre-req to G5 Lasers/Utilities) - Kamitra is currently in Boom until next tick (Thurs). So the cigars supply is currently at 30 (instead of the standard 12). Means you can do her unlock in 2 runs! When its ~120ly each way, saves you ~960ly of jumping back and forth.

Had a try at the mining CG this week, the nearby High Rez was an absolute shooting gallery with wings of Corvettes and Cutters just obliterating anything Wanted in seconds.
The mining itself varied between therapeutically realaxing and irritating when rock after rocked showed nothing but garbage (at least nothing useful for he CG) though materials dropped from dead pirates should be handy.
Should be more than halfway to unlocking Selene now although I have to go hunting Painite.

FYI Coriolis has been updated with the new engineering - https://coriolis.edcd.io/ so it now works again when you click through EDDI or EDMC for you current ships loadouts.

Excellent, Coriolis is much nicer to use on a mobile than EDD-S.Need to find some grade 5 wakes to finish off engineering my FSD, wakes or other G5 data in plentiful enough supply to trade it.

Try mission board or passenger transport. Where I got lots of modified embeded firmware for my g5 multi canons. Need to find some grade 5 wakes to finish off engineering my FSD, wakes or other G5 data in plentiful enough supply to trade it.

Datamined Wake Exceptions - find a system in famine and go there, find the distribution centre. There will be "normally" 3 Type-9s handing out food to all manner of transport ships jumping in and out, high wake scanning will get DWEs. T7s ot T9s are always most likely to get DWEs from.
Of course the thing we always ask is, why are ships jumping out after picking up food in a system in famine, shouldn't they be low waking in the system. I'll shut up.

My PVE chieftain has come quite some way, need to get some Soonthil relics so i can engineer the Sheilds and grind some mining so i can engineer the hull.
Wasn't very long ago that i would wait for system ships or other ships to start firing in RES/Nav beacons etc. but now i'm quite happy to drop into a HAZ RES and start shooting at anything tha t moves with a bounty on my own. Getting Elite Level assassination missions now which seems to always be high level Vette's and rarely have an issue.
Rage sold my python yesterday after crashing into one of the stations in Ceos and then accidentally firing on the station. Prison Station i spawned at was 400ly away...
