A.I. Single Frigates

[Hyperion74]

I have spent my weekend grinding up to the M&C rank on the PvE server. Though I have been doing mostly missions on the north side of Jamaica, I've seen a lot of single AI frigates sailing on the OW. I took them too, of course. I don't recall seeing quite so many single frigates before, mostly fleets and traders. My memory is bad, but if I am right, and this is new, I like it. So far I've seen a Belle, Some Surprises, and at least one Ren.

 

P.S. The grind for rank is fun to me so no complaints here.

Since the last patch, or perhaps the one before it, I've noticed a lot more variety in the make up NPC fleets. From single Frigates and Cerbs and so on, to fun larger fleets like a 3rd rate, surprise and four renos. It does make grinding rank a lot easier and fun, as you can cut down on the mission location hunting, and the variable 'big fleets' make it profitable and fun for lower rank people to tackle some of these in small groups.
