Now that''s what I call Advancement!

I think I just finished the SP storyline (aliens sucked into hole created by artifact). Now, I'm told I need to 'get a job'.

I was level 17 entering into this mission. When I landed back on Manhattan, I went to level 37! I was a bit shocked at that. I did have over $2million in the bank at the time.

So, is it true that level 38 is as high as you can go? I've still got a ton of adventuring to do. On my way now to get a Titan to make things a bit more interesting.

2MIO at the end of SP??? O_O
Lord, you _did_ take your time... very impressive though. And I was convinced that I had been playing slowly and thoroughly - but all I had at the end of the Mainquest were about 900k....
Respect.

And yeah, 38 seems to be the "exp cap". But this can be modded away... x-)

2 Million is doable in less than an hour of trading. And that's just one fairly random route I discovered during the story-line.

Since this is the spoiler forum I feel I can post the actual route (there are undoubtedly better routes - as I insinuated, I haven't spent any appreciable time trying to find the best routes):

Roppongi (New Tokyo) to Tau-31 Gate Site (Tau 23) w. Gate/Lane Parts:
$560 buy, $1400 sell ==> $840 profit
Tau-31 Gate Site (Tau 23) --> Narita Outpost (New Tokyo) w. Beryllium
$300 buy, $780 sell ==> $480 profit
TOTAL PROFITS: $1320 / cargo unit

Kusari space has a nice little 175 cargo unit freighter available. Using this, a round trip gathers well over $200,000 in profits.

Since the route (loop) takes about 10-12 minutes, that's well over a million credits an hour.

It does require some neutral or better faction standings to the criminal elements in the area (which just happens to be the case during the story-line).

Ah well, I never traded much, so maybe that was the catch. Got all those 900k with missions.

Wow, that's a lot of missions ;-)

Around 25k a mission? That's still 40 missions... certainly many more than I've done in the game so far. Lol.
