During my time in the top 100 I struggled with getting enough resources to even level my crew. I tried farming with rooms but it was never enough. I had to drop trophies to even begin to recover. Does anyone have any advice or strategy to maintain a basic minimum resource amount while maintaining a top 100 player status?

i tend to burn my resources as i get them because of this very problem. My greatest defense has been winning some defense battles. i balance out my losses a bit by gaining a bit too. But in the end its pretty barren up there.. But i hear great things about 2000-2500 if you go visit

same problems here, i used storms guide to drop down to around 2k and went back up. especially projects with 1mil+ gas like missiles7 and up or fre5 are pretty tough since gas is much more scarce then minerals i endend up spending the starbucks i collected to fill up the missing 100-200k
a small tip i have is to empty your resource gatherers as little as possible. they can collect a decent ammount at lvl 12 and stuff thats in the collectors does not get looted i think

Best way is to target abandonned ships which can be found within 1.8-2.5k trophy ranks, BUT that was before the last few updates came out.
so far what I've noticed is you can still get decent resources loots withi 2.8-3.2k trophy ranks. Decent is 50-100k resources per battle at least.
Everything is going to be rebalanced on how I see it, focus on polishing up ur ai so u can win more battles, then just accumulate resources through defense rewards. (thats what I do)

Here's a thought: If you start a long upgrade and cancel it, you get half the resources back. It's not ideal, but it IS impossible to steal those resources while the upgrade is in progress.

oO this sounds like a neat trick. with the current state of the improved pvp matching i actually get some decent, doable fights even in the 3k + rnge but that trick is worth a tought going for some costy upgrades like the lvl 9 missiles

With the new PvP matching system this really isn't an issue anymore. It seems like we can farm off lower ships easily even in top 100.

Down here (i.e not the top 100 stratosphere), the new version (0.12) seems to be doing ok. I been seeing a lot of lvl 10 ships that are rather weak (well, at least I defeated them easily). In one with a jackpot rating, I got 230k gas
Could they had seeding the game with easy targets
