What I like is that he uninstalled relays to make it look like he has more energy.

Whats your stats? not to dictate how any one else plays, but i would strongly recommend against what you are doing. by remaining weak, youre just opening yourself up to attacks from higher and higher levels. if you cant even survive a 125, how do you expect to survive a 165? or a 200? slow down for a bit. build up your ship strength. i've seen other people do exactly what youre doing. and that resulted in me disabling them... from over 200 ranks behind them. also, something you need to make a note of, is as you level your 40% also increases. at level 5 its levels 3-7. at level 500 its 300-700. just something to think about. i know being a high rank SOUNDS appealing, but trust me, its not. its filled with energy sink npcs, which is the most efficient way to level after you complete the missions (which is what i assume youre doing since you have nothing but energy). Also, youre really penalizing yourself because you cant invade any planets. most of my planets have 10k defense on them. some less, some more. how can you take those at your build? what i would recommend is either slow down and become a ssb, or slow down and put most of your points into decks or tactical officers/helmsmen. either way, dont rush yourself in this game. It took me a bit over a year to get past rank 500. i know other players who can do it efficiently very fast (binary man), but you dont look like youre following his strategy. if i had rushed to get to 500 (and i definitely could have) i would not have the ship i have now, i would not be in the legion i am now, and i would have about half the planets i do now.

I agree with this guy above me. What exactly is your goal?

My goal is to level as quick as possible. Once Ive completed every mission I will then have enough decks from shipment and from missions to load a fair amount of decks for offense and defense. So maybe around rank 500? And then rank points willl then be split between attk/def crewmen. Ill update my current progress shortly, yesterday to today's differences.

You do realize that traps don't always activate within the first couple hits, right? 2. With your stats, a 1 hit K.O. is likely and your traps won't mean a thing. 3. You're never safe, even when you think you are.

And then rank points willl then be split between attk/def crewmen. Ill update my current progress shortly, yesterday to today's differences. ok, the reason this isnt going to work, is because 1) youre not going to have enough decks to equip all your scanners to maximize scan runs. 2) youre not going to have enough research to keep up with your level and thus be weaker in general. essentially, your putting yourself in league with the 'big boys' when youre still a lowbie. thats a bad idea. its like youre going half between the normal gameplay, and half between ssb. unless you dedicate yourself to one build or another, your going to leave yourself vulnerable to attack. and trust me. no one likes to be disabled constantly. and when i say constantly, i literally mean, the second you repair or level getting disabled instantly. i've seen it before, and i dont want that to ruin the game for you, cause this game is really cool.

It's important to note that the rate of being able to level is directly proportional to two things. 1. The amount of good planets you have colonized and ready to colonize. 2. The level of your research comparative to others of your approximate level.
If you don't level within those two parameters, you're setting yourself up for a whole host of problems. I'm not going to list all of them as many have already been listed. But my favourite is very simple. If you make a weak ship, you get a pathetic combat reputation. It's a known fact that people will attack players with weak combat reputations regardless of actual ship strength (combat rep is a quick indicator of your supposed strength and willingness to retaliate). The weaker you make your ship, the more you're going to get picked on. Especially since the higher up you get in levels, the fewer badgeable ships there are. You'll have everyone and their dog's stylist attacking you because they know how weak you are. There's nothing your traps will be able to do to save you so continuous will be the onslaught. It will literally become a hole you can't dig yourself out of
It's also important to note that in a previous topic on roughly the same subject, Netz was saying all the same things that you're saying. He was all about the speed levelling without regard for the two controlling factors listed above. You'll note that he has since changed his tune.
Don't hamstring your gameplay by trying to leapfrog over essential steps to becoming a high end player. There are no shortcuts in life... or in Galaxy Legion.

Jawwa is right you know, I Use to be about power leveling, I had my modules far behind the rest of my level, and a lot put into energy. At rank 100 I had a laughable reputation, with 100deaths and about 1kill. I was the target throughout the time playing, I slowed down and started building my ship strength and soon enough, ranked up to rank 140 with savage reputation, and 20kills off insane. stopped PVPing from there, and no continious disables. Jawwa, you shall got a good memory
No shortcuts in life for sure, theres an essence of it, but not the full enjoyment.
Like Megaupload - a multi billionaire for skipping a step, not paying the price for things, there he skipped it and pirated it instead and now he is busted :L Recently on the news
