Exploration - (C.D.S.E)Voyager - 01-06-2008

As a newbie to this server, i am keen to search around and basicaly explore this vast sector. What ID should i use for this and what sort of ships can i fly ? Any advice ?

Get a trader first, then you can make money, plus you can explore that way to (learn good traderoutes)

First, wellcome to disco.

I use IMG Spatial (from somewhere in Bretonia), as it is a ship for exploration, although not good in PvP.
There also is IMG Battlecruiser "used for explorartion in border words and nomad systems"...
Former blood dragon GB is a Kusari Explorer ship, some transports could go too... (I can imagine Kusari Big Dragon, Armored trans....)
As an ID... Freelancer, Zoner, IMG.... Anything you can find RP reasons why.

I would use the Repair Ship myself, just because it has 4k bats and bots, but i dunno how it flies or how big it is.

The ID though, I'd go with Trader or something like that.

repair ship is a good choice - its nearly indestructible by common enemies. ( alternatively the spatial or kiith somtaav SHF do a good job, too )

a roleplaying ID would be

zoner: they live in the borderworlds anyway and are bound to explore some
freelancer: free to go wherever they like - allways searching for new opportunities
smuggler: not particularly exploring in the common sense, but surely that class is looking for hidden shortcuts, jumpholes and ways alternativly to the common routes
IMG: allways looking for resources to claim
GMG: see IMG
miner: see IMG, but independent

I would go Freelancer man. Not many people mess with them, and if someone needs help, they may just hire you.

Freelancers aren't allowed in Rheinland though, which would limit exploration potential a tad

I thought it was just Mercs.

And I'd think that the ideal exploration ID would be the Neutral ID (if they let you have one) since nobody should theoretically get attacked less than a neutral.

Well I saw some knuckelheaded young Rheinland Military officer threatening a Freelancer on the basis that the latter was violating Rheinland law by being there.
