but, if youd like to see how ive done it, heres a 10 month journey of progress.

5*(1100/65) = 84.6, or 85 energy minimum to take you down... it's not -terrible-, though it's not taking full advantage of the build, either. If you slow down your ranking a bit more, it can help you build up your ship strength; 40-something ranks in 30 days is a bit fast for a small ship build that's pvp-focused (like you seem to be).

Ok, wanted to document my plan of growth. Basically, I believe that arty is king, and am testing the theory to its fullest. I am almost exclusively (unless I find an x research/ mining planet that I can't resist) arty planets. All rank points and rescued prisoners are going into tactical officers and engineers. I know I will suffer from decks at the beginning, but I am looking way down the road. Current stats: rank: 36 attack: 221 defense: 16 scan: 6 cloak: 45 cargo: 154/230 upkeep: 8.5k decks: 34 engineers: 290 tactical officers: 177 helmsmen: 11 scientists 22 arty p/hr 507 research p/hr 101 mining p/hr 11 6 kills 18 deaths

Right, but I would put all your deck space toward hull for now.

5*(1100/65) = 84.6, or 85 energy minimum to take you down... it's not -terrible-, though it's not taking full advantage of the build, either. If you slow down your ranking a bit more, it can help you build up your ship strength; 40-something ranks in 30 days is a bit fast for a small ship build that's pvp-focused (like you seem to be).

Yeah, I get that, but I have a hard time slow ranking.
