Record time to get Kestrel (w/o plug)?

As of today, my record is about a day (yes, pretty slow, but you gotta remember, I just started playing this for the first time in months )... But that's because I just noticed the profitable trade route between Cyndonia/Lethe and Adhara (or whatever that Rebel planet is that's real close to 'em... Not scorpio, but the one on the left...)

not to brag or anything :)...but i'm sure if i tried i could get a kestrel in two hours or so...here's how...i would do one rush delivery mission...then i would buy three lasers... then i would start raiding pirate ships (including corvette and the kestrel)...after raiding a bunch of those i'd have it in no time.

Shuttlecraft with three lasers to drop a pirate Kestrel? You're pretty hot with your skills. The best way is to raid confederate shuttles: over 100k credits in each ...

It was a bug in 1.0.0.

Uhm... sorry... I meant to say, "(w/o cheating)"
...but, I guess "(w/o plug)" should count, too... now all i gotta do is take out all my plugs and clear up 24 hours to play...

Two hours?

Try 10 minutes, at most.

It's a bit scummy, but it works. I went to darven, and witnessed a rebel destroyer and a kestrel in a fight. Destroyer wins, I board the Kestrel to steal its cash, as I usually do, and, as I usually do, absentmindedly clicked on Capture Ship, expecting the self destruct to go off. Next thing I see is 'What will you name your new Kestrel?'.

Not cheating, but still VERY lucky.

(although i did it in the star wars 2 plug-in and got a super star destroyer with an X-wing).

Very interesting, people. The best record HERE so far has only been 10 MINUTES? Something seems a litte wrong. Well, let's see if you've obtained a Kestrel faster than I have. I once captured a kestrel in 8, count 'em 8 seconds. Not minutes, not hours, SECONDS. Now who exactly brought this topic up? Someone tell me that. Now, back to the shadows...

In EVO I goto Emalgha and trade metal for equipment in the same system. I get 6 Emalgha Freighters and within 1 hour or so I have enough to buy a Crescent Warship... even faster if you get Miranu Freightors...

ok ok I know its EVO, but its SOMEWHAT close....
