I WISH I KNEW THIS WHEN I STARTED NEW GAME+... Do this and SNOWBALL in MINUTES!!!

Don’t make my mistake. On my first NG+ I ended up in this far out of the way high level system Looking for Goodies. Ended up in space combat but the ship I took over was Shit, the jump range left me stranded with only 3 systems available. High level systems an I had fuck all ammo, I actually thought Bethesda introduced survival mode cos I was stuck for roughly 10 hours Scavenging/looting high level dudes trying to gain XP an creds. It ended up being a Fun problem to have as I eventually found a civilian outpost with a ship technician where I swapped my ship back but also grinding a Tonne of Advanced / Superior Gear 😅

This is helpful as I think a lot of people start NG+ thinking "gee, I just lost all my stuff. What do I do now?" 🤔

Go to lodge, speak to Sarah, get big money, go into lodge basement and weapons on the wall will be at your level. You can then use the money Sarah gave you to buy ammo and/or better gun.

Worth noting, if you're gonna steal a bunch of guns like you showed here, go to Trade Authority and "clean" everything. So, as you all know, only Trade Authority and a few other select vendors (e.g. everyone on the Key) buy stolen goods. However, if you sell a stolen (red flagged) item to TA, then without exiting, you switch from Sell to Buy, at the bottom you have Buy Back, and you can buy it, minus the red stolen flag, at the exact same price you sold it for. So you want to "wash" the stuff you want to sell first. Sell until he can't afford to buy any more. Buy it all back (no net cost to you). Rinse and repeat until it's all clean. Then sell some stuff you don't care about until he's out of money. Then go buy ammo and whatever resources you're going to need to trick out the weapons you do want all the way, then sell some more. Then go find a legit vendor, say Jemison Mercantile, and sell more stolen/cleaned guns/ammo, and buy more ammo/resources you want/need, and sell more stuff.

I normally go to the nova staryard in sol. It had enough loot to get you started if you all want a more legit way. It also helps you learn your powers

here's a way to both enjoy the game and the story. play through the game once normally. Achieve unity. Play the NG + by unlocking all the levels through console commands. play the story again, do all the factions, because there will be new options (it's basically like groundhog day the movie) but this time with your character knowing what happens next and awesome godlike powers.

I have the laser skill maxed out and habitation to lvl 3, so I just go back to the mine you start the game at, grab a Cutter, and just go to some abandoned base and start killing mobs in a high level system. The mining laser with a maxed out laser skill will easily kill spacers, pirates, ecliptic, whatever. It's not great long term, but is far better than the knife you start with. This has to do with the Burn effect the top tier laser skill provides. The Cutter with tier 4 laser skill is also the best way to kill Terrormorphs, none of the other weapons or powers will do it faster. This will likely net you at least a few decent weapons within 4-5 kills and a ton of stuff to sell. Fill up your cargo bay with guns and suits, and then go to Venus. Hop around the surface until you find a vendor inside behind a counter at a settlement, the igloo looking icon. There are a few variations of settlement so you may have to try a few times to find the right one. Once you do, sit on the stool and sell all your crap. This is easy to do despite the vendor only having 5k credits because 1 planetary hour equals 100 UT hours. So you only have to wait for one hour to reset their stock and credits, which only takes a couple of seconds. There is always a stool right at the counter, so you can wait and talk to the vendor without moving. Once you're done unloading your stuff, go outside, go to just outside the boundary of the settlement and drop a beacon. No need to build a base, though a landing pad isn't a bad idea, it's really just for the permanent marker. This is why you need tier 3 in habitation so you can put a beacon on Venus, which is corrosive. That isn't strictly necessary, but is worth the three skill point investment long term so you don't have to hop around the planet to find a vendor every time. They usually have about 80-100 decent stacks of resources, med supplies, and you can reroll their weapons and suits as much as you want. So they are always useful for both buying and selling. This is a great way to stock up on stuff like adhesive, titanium, etc... and medical supplies. Rerolling weapons and suits in seconds is a big deal, as you can keep going for a top tier weapon of your choice. I usually keep rolling until I get a decent Inflictor or Starshard. You can also get a decent Big Bang this way. You'll gain lots of credits this way, and even though it takes longer to get going, you'll actually make credits faster this way because you have a vendor that essentially never runs out of money without having to sit for one or two minutes to get them to restock.

I like doing the terrormorph quest from the UC vanguard faction its good xp and all the guns you stole from the UC at the forward base you get all for free anyways doing the main terrormorph quest. lol fyi the solar flare power takes terrormorphs real quick you will thank me.

the magshear -> modern magshear trick from hopetown works with the old earth svd in the well as well quicksave -> steal it (doesnt matter if you get caught) -> instantly after picking up quickload, and the svd on the counter is modern (now steal it for real)

Just get yourself a smart gun and a va’ruun inflictor and you’re good to go. Also you can get a quick 55,000 credits by completing all pilot simulation levels when u join vanguard

Just started my first new game plus and I found a really good rifle in the storage of the ship they give you. Got some cash and modded it. Easy as that.

I always go to Toliman (where the Terrormorph planet is) and steal all of the weapons at the UC base, sell it to the den to remove the stolen tag, THEN I go to the well and do the same thing.

As a level 25 taking on 63s that is a bit helpful. Ty

Also, go to Venus, rest, and the gun cases stack in that UC Surplus store in the Well.

You can also utulize the Void Form power for Method 1 and 2 if you dont have the nuero amp. Going invisible is great to help with those five finger discounts.😅

In the MAST building there is the defence research & initiatives program which has a lot if decent guns to

There is also a big green safe in the back of the gun store that you just ran right buy lol and buy digipicks from the neighboring merchants.

Love that, I don't use the internal neuroamp enough

My issue is ships boarding ramps no longer lower. The only ships I can board are starborne since it has no physical ramp. Thoughts?

I have flown. Around those systems for 45 minutes never saw those tier 3 ships
