    TY for taking the time to explain Pierce and scanning

  • @davidolson3776

    Thanks so much! I couldn't quite figure out the right combination for scanning. This helps.
    As for RS Signatures, I found these pointed to a single gem or rock in 3.22 on Lyria. I hope they didn't change with 3.23, but I'll check...
    620 = gem (620, 1240, 1860, 2480, 3100, 3720, 4340, 4960, 5580, 6200, 6820, 7440, 8060, 8680, 9300, 9920, 10540, 11160, 11780)
    1730 = Shale
    1800 = Atacamite
    1840 = Gneiss
    1920 = Granite
    1950 = Igneous
    There might be other rock types but those are the ones I ran into on Lyria.
    10700 is a combination of the last 5. When you get an RS signature that isn't in the list of gem signatures, it will always be rocks.

    • @SpaceShortsYT
      @SpaceShortsYT  6 місяців тому

      The default ping button is tab. I set mine to the side mouse button. When you swap the Mole Bags with the Prospector Bags (both considered size 1 bags) it increases the capacity of the Prospector from 32 SCU to 48 SCU. I have a video about it. :)

    Lol, I need to fire my QA Team. "An" should have been "a" in one of the word panels. Forgive me. Also, I misquoted the ROC's RS Signature Value:
    Here are those values.
    620 = gem (620, 1240, 1860, 2480, 3100, 3720, 4340, 4960, 5580, 6200, 6820, 7440, 8060, 8680, and more)
    1730 = Shale
    1800 = Atacamite
    1840 = Gneiss
    1920 = Granite
    1950 = Igneous
    Best way to tell gems from rocks is you usually will detect gems at a closer range, and gems are usually a single teardrop icon, and rocks are lots of teardrop icons.
    One last thing, I think I showed off the Active Scanning key bind where it should have been "Ping". Escape > Options > Keybindings > Advanced Controls Customization > Flight - Radar > THIS is where you set the "Active Ping (Hold & Release).

    ROC mining opportunities will be a multiple of 620, not 640. Also, ROC mining opportunities seldom appear very far away. Any signal farther than maybe 6 Km at most is not likely to be gems. A 1920 signal would be rock type Granite, a single rock.

    Surely V is just 'Scanning Mode'. That is what it says in the keybindings so when you hit V it is just turning off scanning mode. Personally, I use V to turn scanning mode on and off or sometimes just hit M which automatically turns scanning off and brings up Mining.

    I don't use any of these fancy mechanics and to be honest didn't know they existed and this very informative. If you 360 scan and pick something up about 4km from you that you didn't get from about 8km its not worth looking at with the prospector and most likely gems or single small rock. I only go to things that I pick up from 8km plus distance. The only time this isn't applicable is on first scan in an area. I easily pull in 150K and hour with this method and a lot less work with respect to all the mining mechanics discussed here. Still well done video though.
