I used prospector mining on Pyro as my wipe recovery plan. Did 5 mining runs and took the refined contents to Orison, almost 300k net. The biggest problem is that I exhausted my starting money paying for refining so for a while I was dead-ass broke.
My wipe recovery always starts with doing salvage in the vulture, then moving to mining once I have a few hundred k in the bank. Though this time I found i was making good fast money with my Connie doing the protect merc missions. 5-10 mins per mission at 50k each.
@@Erad_Prime "Mixed feelings" meaning terrible. 😆 I kind of wanted to mix some mining in but I think 240k minimum for a normal prospector run is where I draw the line. I was hoping an economy rebalance would bring mining up a lot more in line with salvage... Actually it should be more since there is more danger and cost involved, also more skill based and knowledge intensive.
@@Erad_Prime I went to 5 difference places trying to scope them out and wasn't too picky. Also with a stock Prospector too many rocks were impossible. Used the funds to upgrade to a helix and now fewer rocks are impossible and I can be picky about choosing higher value ores. It was about 3 hours of actual gameplay so about 100k per hour.
I played 4.0 first time, I just was flying about not really doing anything and ended up near a cluster, I approached a structure, a turret took my ship out and I EVA’d out and headed towards the structure, took about 5 mins, I found a hatch, opened it and entered the place. I entered and was walking about, weapon drawn, there where NPC’s who seen me took me down and it was all over. This was all unscripted, no loading in, seamless. It was brilliant and a real experience.
The asteroid base missions are cool. Just gotta be careful once you get deeper, the two times i got pretty deep, i got glitched into a bit of terrain and couldnt get out
Great video! We’re seeing folks try out mining in pyro and the new meta has yet to reveal itself. I’ve seen a lot of reports about unscannable rocks on planets but it’s still early days.
I did 5 hauling contracts at once last night from Bajini to Riker Memorial. They were all small, I think in total about 75 scu. It took a while to load, because there were about 50 1 scu crates. Made a little over 200k from that. I like the fact that I can get multiple contracts to do this, but they really need to make distance more of a component to payout so there is more incentive to take longer jobs. I don't know what your total will be when you sell all the refined materials, but I would hope it ends up significantly more than what I made for a milk run.
@Ogata123 yeah, I agree, but I think it is a little too good, or, rather, it needs to be updated to put more weight into volume, distance, and danger. Right now, it doesn't seem like there is a good reason to do anything other than the shortest, smallest trips you can stack.
Did a bit of asteroid mining with a prospector in Pyro and it seemed ok. Nothing special for me either but it was plentiful in a few spots. Worth the view for sure and I feel like there's still a lot to learn about mining there. Thanks for the vid!
Great guide, thanks! How to you get such great zoomed far out shots? Are there any "safe" refineries in Pyro? I'd expect something to be a range ie for refining quant? Thx.
Havent tried mining because i dont have my prospie anymore, but ive been happy with salvage and very specific hauling missions. Plan on getting a prospie once. Ive gotten the 8 mil i need for all components
Back when I played regularly a few years ago, before refining was a thing... Mining used to be my go-to for making aUEC. Judging by the state of mining... it's not very fun, and you're not going to make a buttload of aUEC doing it and it's going to take DAYS to refine it. So uh, what makes this loop even worth playing now? If base building were a thing and we NEEDED those things to build with, I'd see a point... but with the time vs. earnings... It doesn't seem particularly worthwhile to me. What am I missing here?
My aUEC-bought Prospector is due to be erased in 4.0, so no mining for me for a while. Mind you, I'd probably just stay in Stanton if I had a Prospector on my account.
I've been wanting to try mining in Pyro as well. I've been making pretty good money doing panel salvage in Pyro with the vulture to give me some breathing room so maybe time to invest in some mining equipment.
Painless run, my advice stay far away from 4.0 during peak hours. The amount of issues is just too frustrating. Had my first server error too today. But during off hours, so smooth!
Imagine flying back across Pyro to the Stanton gate, back to Stanton, then all the ass way back to Mic-L2 just to refine. Because (wait for it).......there are refineries in Pyro too.
And the best selling prices are in Stanton… also it is thanks to people like you that pirates have gameplay content in pyro. Please do refine there :) me and the boys will be looking :)

@@Erad_Prime so if we do the gleam thing, is there no benefit to leaving comments? Not sure I understand the mechanic...

I like the Mole but I feel like the Arrastra is the ship made specifically for Pyro mining. Can't wait for when it releases.
hope you are ready to wait 5-7 yrs for that ship!
@MultiFishslayer i don't own it. I have a CCU. If it comes out, great, if not, I don't care too much.
I always say that flying a mole is like flying a bathtub full of water.

300k for 5 runs sounds like mixed feelings. Where did you go and what did you find?

Once you find a good loop, the hauling is good for stacking.

THanks for all the videos on 2024. I have enjoyed them. Have a Marry Christmas!
i was surprised to see the pyro gateway station having a refinery. not sure which others have one. maybe temporary until the refining ships are in
Thanks for this. I haven't done much Mining since Salvaging was added but it's good to know how it's looking over in Pyro.

Fun watch, I'm both a miner/salvage player AND a fighter pilot- angry logistics I call it
angry Logistics... i dig that :D

I would advise against refining in pyro because you’ll be an easy target for pirates
Any good guides on refining? I don't really understand all the options!

As an industry player I hope mining is viable in Pyro
Woohoooo! Holiday break and Pyro :)
Did think they be a lot more expensive amounts in pyro, Thank you for the vid

I have see a raffinery in pyro with a patch... in his name. Look on your star map you have the logo for mining before traveling
If you are refining in pyro, you are asking for trouble
My aUEC-bought Prospector is due to be erased in 4.0, so no mining for me for a while. Mind you, I'd probably just stay in Stanton if I had a Prospector on my account.
The jump point experience is awesome, hat`s off to CIG
Dude, really nice interlude with the music and flying. I loved it.
Thanks scorned! All the songs are on Erad Music on UA-cam
Tnx for the run through, procedures are life.
I really need to go to pyro soon. Another solid video.
I've been wanting to try mining in Pyro as well. I've been making pretty good money doing panel salvage in Pyro with the vulture to give me some breathing room so maybe time to invest in some mining equipment.
Argo know how to do industrial ships. Going to have to grind my way back to buying a Mole in game again.
I really enjoy mining and your videos :D
Surprised you flew all the way back to Stanton to refine instead of doing it at Pyro, was it more expensive there?
Better sales option in Stanton
Cant wait to mine!
Short answer:no
Long answer: nooooo.
Painless run, my advice stay far away from 4.0 during peak hours. The amount of issues is just too frustrating. Had my first server error too today. But during off hours, so smooth!
4k please :)
If I could afford to pay for Adobe, I would ... If you'd like to help me, link to Patreon is in the description :)
Why not in pyro refined?
Je vais pas prendre le risque de me faire pirater ... non non.
Haven’t made it to pyro 5 yet but mining seems not worth it for now
Seems like more effort than it was worth. But maybe you can find a better haul elsewhere?
Ill definitely try!
gave it a try...and it was less than stunning.....will try again as soonas it is more stable
Yay great job🎉
Subscribe and comment to win a ship please amd thanks

Tell me you haven't stepped foot in pyro without telling me you haven't stepped foot in pyro lmao
@AeyLaen I'm bopping about Pyro right now. It might be how I knew how absurdly long all Erad's combined travel time was.
Nice
There are new minerals in Pyro... dude goes straight to the same old shite...
I know and I plan to return to find the new stuff
