I'm ratting to raise my sec status. I know the trick: kill some rats, go to a new system, kill some rats, go to a new system, rinse, repeat.
Thing is, I wonder if I'm screwing myself. When I warp to a belt, I have to pop the frigates or cruisers first. Lower bounty rats give less sec status gain, right? So if I end up with a sec gain from the first rat I kill and don't get a boost from the battleship that I kill soon after, am I kindof screwing myself?
Do I need to be trying to find BS-only spawns to maximize my gain? Since I'm doing this in an AF, I can't imagine trying to take out the BS before the frigs are down. Some of them hurt, and have ewar etc.
Please advise!
Thanks.

Afaik (but certainly no expert) it's the biggest rat per 15 minutes or per session change. So there's no problem in killing the smaller stuff apart from the fact that you lose time over it.
Trying to get somne chains going is the best way, if you have 2-3 chains in a system you'll probably be near the 15 minute mark anyway but what you can do is the following; kill the rats, go to a safespot, leave ship, board ship, kill the rats.
That is ofcourse if that system can provide you with enough targets, if it can't then yeah jumping systems works as well.

Thanks mate!
Can anyone confirm this?
Should my gains be averaging about 0.2% per 10 minutes or so? (Since I'm going relatively slow... assault frig.)

Yes, the biggest bounty ship you kill is what sets your sec increase, not the first ship.
Also, if you're hitting the same few systems, and you get a multiple BS spawn, pop 1 and leave. When your timer is up in that system, hit that same belt up for a refreshed set of BSes there. It cuts down on having to search the belts for a BS.
Disclaimer: Spawns will move and/or despawn, but this does tend to work more often than not. |

Kill BS rat, Jump, Kill BS rat, Jump.
Repeat over and over again until satisfied.
