How to easily upgrade your starting ship/make money

[Scoob]

There appears to be a handful of spawns that always exist (about four or five I think). One of them is a Teladi frigate and one is a Paranid capital ship.

Sorta makes for an easy start once you know about them. In my current game, I didn't find ANY derelict ships until over 30 hrs in! I actually bought my first Frigate, my first M-Class Trade Ship, my M-Class Miners etc.

I think having the odd S-Class to claim in fixed places would be cool, keep the rest random. Though I'm not overly fussed either way, I can choose to claim them, or not after all.

To be fair, the Paranid destroyer is in the middle of a colossal minefield deep in Xenon territory. It's not too hard to get to, but it's a cast iron bitch to get out.

Erm, just fly up and over. Easy

The issue is the Xenon capital ships that usually hang around the gate. It's a one-way sector.

I had several fighter squads lead by Xenon P's in my game - just had to zip past them. Guess it's random what you might face retrieving the Odysseus.
