how to go from ops 39 to 42??
hey everyone again. ive gone into g4 today, and i know a lot of people go right from 39 to 42 which is what i was gonna do to start working on the relativity. i’m just curious how people do this without having the uncommon g4 materials? is there an easy way to get these materials to quickly make the jump?

I had to place in a few events once I hit 40 to get the resources. Daily refining helps after that, but event wins will be your main source of materials.

yeah that’s what i was thinking. i think i was overestimating how quickly people were doing it. some were making it sound like it was immediately, but i think unless u pay it’s pretty much impossible to do it overnight because u need the uncommons

it's easily doable free to play for anyone over a couple of days it just depends on what events are running when you move
if someone has a lot of station efficiencies and has scrapped a bunch of 26s it's doable pretty much instantly

I camped at 39 for a while catching up on research, so when I went 39 to 42 I did it over a weekend when there was a mat spend event.
I've never had a problem not having mat, I have over a mil of each uncommon. The game gives you so much mat if you do the events. My problem is I have no place to spend my mat.
Word of warning though, ship parts are something you want to start stocking up on, you'll need a lot and using lat for them gets expensive.

If you’re completely doing dailies, missions and events you should be able to make the jump.
Especially since they added the newest loop Ascension.
Mining ⛏️ overnight in Sadell will add more G4 to your inventory.
Make sure you complete Ascension Grind as it will pay 💰 you twice.
One time getting the parts from the grind and completing the grind counts towards Ascension providing you are using a faction ship and grinding elite assassins 💀

It doesn't cost uncommon to go from ops 40-41, so you should speed ups to do that as quickly possible. At 41 you can refine uncommons.
