Currently leaning towards the Elite bundle, as it contains 10k more standards and an extra ship. It’s missing premium time admittedly, but I could always use the extra standards to buy that?
Yes you can.
I would actually go for the Elite Pilot DLC.
Those 10k GS are more than 3 month Licence (without sale)
I just checked and… yeah. I mean, unless the pirate ships are mega good, it seems like a worse deal in terms of value. Elite has one more ship and a bucket load more GS to spend, even after buying a month anyway.
elite most definitely. if played correctly, bear is freaking op.
Personally I like Dead Man’s Chest, but that’s because I do better in frigates compared to fighters.
Elite Pilot pack !
And you can use the GS to buy License and more premium ships 
I got the Elite Pilot Pack ages ago during a sale. Waited for a ship sale and bought some nice t5 premiums.
