Mission ships: Difference between revisions

Line 45:

Dead mission NPCs can be looted. Assuming you want the loot, and that you do not have a friend who will do the looting for you, you will need to fit a salvager or carry a salvage drone or two. (You can also bring two ships, one to complete the mission and one to clean up afterwards - but this is usually not worth the effort until you get to Level IV missions.)

Since you do not intend to die, and since missions pay off in various ways, you should be willing to fit your ship with top flight gear. This is not just for vanity or fun … the faster you kill the enemies, the sooner you can loot them and move on to the next mission~~. Because an experienced mission runner does not often die, he or she can use more expensive, more powerful ships and gear and so become more efficient at running missions~~.

Each type of enemy does a particular kind of damage. And each enemy is susceptible to a particular kind of damage. You want to choose your ammunition, and sometimes change your fittings to match the enemy's damage type. [[npc damage|This page]] provides the NPC information, and includes a chart formatted to be copied to your in-game notepad for quick reference.
