Should have made a level 150 Jenquai Explorer first for the group cloak skill ? Or you could ask for a level 150 JE with group cloak to give you a ride to your hull upgrade in new player channel. The Progen , specially the warrior picked on the V'rix first , that is their revenge. I wish the devs would change them V"rix loot table as to make them a wanted kill , other bigger player would kill them down just to get the loot

If you are solo ... make friend or learn to multi-box more then one of your account also start with trade and ask for a universe tour for exploration point 25 trade level + 25 explore level usually give you a nice shield level that you can solo combat level without dying in 1 or 3 shots https://www.net-7.org/wiki/index.php/Trade_Routes https://www.net-7.org/wiki/index.php/New_Player_Tutorial/Guide https://www.net-7.org/wiki/index.php?search=guide&title=Special%3ASearch&fulltext=1

https://www.net-7.org/wiki/index.php/Red_Dragon_Base_Raid Projectile and Missile users should bring Chemical and EMP unless you can debuff the type you bring. Beam users should bring Energy. EMP will only work on the shields of the mobs and not on the hull, this will mean that you will need to swap over to chem or energy when you are hitting hull. ------- Plasma Beams or Plasma Ammo will ***heal*** the bosses but can deal damage after Chimaera's Debuff.

joining a guld or askimg for group expertise in general chat might help ?

Hello , My understanding ( that which is limited )is that the negotiate skill only affect credit and not xp except for terran traders who when grouped with one with maxed negotiate skill seem to gain a 19% mission Bonus.
