I decided to post my rout for this event.
I have gotten down to 16min runs with this.
red is the rout blue is transwarp
transwarp to k7 saves about 3 to 4 min same with transwarp to earth if you are going to make more runs
(you can get transwarp to k7 at diplomatic rank 2)
some transitions place you facing the wrong way (yellow dots)
load times can be as long as 5 min at esd closer to end of the hour
when entering Xarantine from Archanis you will be facing west and need to make a 180 degree turn
when entering sierra from devron you will be facing north and need to make a 180
for fastest times use borg subtranswarp drive or maco set with max driver coil skill you can reach cruise speeds of warp 20 and up slipstreem speeds exceeding warp 30
I have made 3 and a half laps using this rout when load times where decent
earned 1,250,000 ec in one hour
to get a reward all you have to do is hit all sectors in a factions space. every faction you complete gives you 50,000ec and a handful of CXP
some are easier than others for fed you have to enter 9 different sectors in 3 sector blocks to get the reward where just entering pelia sector(undine) will give you the same reward
in gamma orionis you can set a course to the system in the middle and hit all sectors at once(easier with larger ships)
if you dont have enough time to complete another lap you can head to borg and undine space then transwarp to k7 and pick up kningon to in very little time and still recive 150000 for your effort and if you still have a few minuets you can backtrack to deffera and pick up another 50000
you dont have to complete the entire lap to get rewarded and you dont need to return to esd if you are not going to start another run. completing the entire run gives you extra cxp on top of what you get from each faction.
the best times people are reporting on the forums are 16-18 min runs and thats using the transwarp ability of the excelsior
