Your timing is amazing, I have been taking notes on pulling out my 'ol Prospector to get back into mining after all the changes in the last few months! As always, appreciate your videos Farrister!
I didn't see your notes, I promise!
As a miner a major Trick. Play with the optimal range. For example: Helix vs 4k Rock mostlikly will overcharge instant, go now to the max operate range of the Helix and u will notice u csn put more Power in without overchargeing.
I love these kinds of videos that shows you what all could happen in game. Thank you for sharing this, Farrister!
Thanks, as always Snaggletoof :)
Awesome video, Farrister. Educational, relaxing.. Thank you for this content, as always..! S!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Looks like fun, haven’t used the Prospector in ages. I like the Luminalia Livery you used.
Good choice taking the C1, that ship is enjoyable to fly.
Some people requesting a MOLE video, I have one on loan and happy to use it if you want to get a group together.
Thanks :) I may need to re-buy the MOLE as my review for it is getting a little outdated at this point too...
I like all of your content, quite relaxing, I usually play your vídeos while I'm working
Don't tell the boss!
I always look forward to your videos, you're my favourite star citizen content creator by far. Love your relaxing style and honest content. This is great timing as I only recently picked up a Prospector! I'm using the Hofstede laser and Rieger module combo, seems decent so far.
Glad you like them!
Thank you for this video. Being new to the game, this really helped me decide if this game play loop is for me. Seems very relaxing and a great money maker. Thanks
Glad I could help!
Loved the vid as always! Would love to see you throw some of the gadgets into the loop too. They're wicked helpful when it comes to making rocks easier or getting them to cluster when breaking.
Noted!
Awesome :D it's just your flow and how easy you are to listen to. I think it's a good way for people to get solid information at a nice, calming pace@@Farrister
This is what I've been doing the last few days to take a break from my Vulture. I found an awesome Argo Mole owner help me upgrade my Prospector bags from 32 SCU to 48 SCU. Longer sessions. It's so nice! I like the refinery process and having to ship my own goods. Seems tedious at first, especially since the payout isn't as good as salvage, but it feels more rewarding.
Awesome, I’ve only tried mining once very shortly with some buddies. Hope to try it again. I’m excited for refining ships and refining modules!
That saddlebag swap is such a cheese, I couldn't bring myself to do it :D but agreed, love a bit of Prospector mining as a break from salvage
Hi Farrister, glad to see this prospector mining again.. for me I took my MOLE out lately cz a bit bored with salvage. I have helix for big rock crusher, Klein for moderate rock, and arbor for small rock.. it does a fantastic job for all kind of rocks. I heard doing space mining is more profitable for multi crew but after i tried it with my friend, the rock is bugged as if its not there tho I can actually see them in front of me.. Maybe you can try space mining at aron halo for the next video?
Thanks, may deign to dig out a MOLE for the next one!
Yes more mining videos please. I found your channel a few days ago and been watching since. I always like and I subscribed. A video with the best spots for mining and refining would be great as well. I am new to star citizen and my buddy bought me a prospector but I don't know where to go or what to do lol. All I know is mining is what I want to do. It so tranquil, calming, and relaxing.
Thank you for the great content as well. You and Morphologis are my two favorite content creators for Star Citizen.
Thanks for your kind words - Morphologis one of my favourites, so I take that as a big compliment! Have you checked out RedMonsterSC for mining guides? I used to do a lot more, but frankly his are fantastic!
@@Farrister thank you for great content and yes I have them book marked but I don't really understand it all but I'm writing on it.
You and Morphologis have the soothing voice, superb edits, great shots of ship and scenery, excellent info, a passion that's undeniable and intoxicating, and overall just very well laid out.
I'm my opinion there are no better content creators for Star Citizen. The quality is God Tier 👍 Pure 🔥
Really like that blue&white paint. Very clean.
Thanks, I really like it!
Great job!
Thanks!
I absolutly love mining in star citizen and enjoyed watching your relaxed video. Please show more mining with multicrew mole.
You should also try different lasers with different modules and use gadgets whenever you find something worth.
Alrighty, more to follow! Thanks :)
Great Video as always! Also I see what you did there... :)
I don't know what you mean........ ;-)
I would love more mining content! One of the most relaxing things to do after a busy day at work.
You got it!
I can only speak for myself but I honestly appreciate seeing unadulterated gameplay rather than the sped up stuff, including transit time.
If I want to speed up I can do that on my end with UA-cam myself, but I can't really slow down your sped up footage.
Good to know, thanks :)
I really like to go on a mining trip after a hard day's work. It can be so much relaxing, even if not that lucrative per hour normally...
Still not bad for making UEC!
Good to see the real game as is rather than future peering.
Yeah :)
I love seeing mining.
Hope to deliver some more this month :)
@@FarristerAwesome 🙂
ITS BEEN 33 SECONDS, AND I LOVE YOUR CONTENT, THANKYOU FOR LETTING ME VIEW THIS! YOU'RE AMAZING! THANKYOU! -A loyal subby
lol
Love your videos with the soothing music and chill commentary. I see why use the speed up that often (yt shorts and tiktok has left their mark :D). But I personally would prefer if you only use it during quantum drives and while entering/leaving the atmosphere. Not during flying around scanning and definitely not during mining itself.
Another note: Why don't you use any gadgets? Would be interesting for viewers and would have helped for the first rock for example.
OK - useful feedback, thanks! I often do use mining gadgets, but this mining head doesn't fit any (as I recall)
Oh sorry, just realised you said gadget and not module :D yes, I could perhaps have done that!
Great video, as always. I am not sure if you mentioned it, but was that a stock prospector?
No, I swapped the mining head
More mining would be nice, but also some of the other mission types, like investigation, black box recovery, missing persons etc. Just so people can get a feel for the game's content.
Do I have to do FPS? :D
Prospector is the ideal singleship for money making postt wipe, no up friont money needed to start earning, although it wont be much until the stock laser can be replaced. Very enjoyable. Mole bags make for a useful free upgrade if you know a friendly Mole owner, or get lucky and find a broken Mole.
I dunno, I think ROC has lower up front costs, but Prospector is still pretty great!
Hey love the video! ive actually not played almost any star citizen but this was really cool. Question, when you loaded up your transporter with your 2 loads from the refinery, did you have to fly the transporter somewhere to sell it? or you just sold it from the refinery itself?
Ah, sorry - could have shown the journey. I had to sell at a trading place, in this case I flew to Lorville on Hurston
@@Farrister all good, thanks for the explanation!
Nice video. I haven't been mining since the latest changes - this is tempting me to get back in. Where did you go to sell? For completeness I'd have liked to see that journey :) Also, I agree with you about that Prospector skin - really pretty.
Sold up at Lorville - and duly noted!
I love that ship livery ❤
I hoped you might!
I don't enjoy mining myself, but I like your vids😊
Fair enough :D
If you wanna mine more consistently, you can go through the Aaron asteroid field just outside of Orison’s system orbit? I find that there’s more prospector sized t2 or t1 ores out there, plus far less chance of getting attacked due to the difficulty of jumping out of warp at the right time. (I try to set up a quantum between Hurston and Arc because the major refineries that offer bonuses to refined ore are out in that direction… namely ArcL2 and MicL5)
I did note that you said you liked MC best, in which case gold mining and refining at MicL2 would be your best option?
Yeah, I should head back to the belt!
I like putting my prospector in my 890 Jump and playing around with it
Sounds wholly inappropriate :D
Exactly i still like playing around with it @@Farrister 😏
This is exactly my run as well when it comes to mining with a Prospector. I hate the fact that Calliope has high winds and moves your ship away, making it almost impossible to mine in a solo Mole xD. I honestly think you got lucky to crack that 12000 mass rock. Also i kinda found Dinyx Solventation to be not worth it that much for the huge added time and slight cost reduction as opposed to Ferron Exchange. Don't also bother with the tier 3 stuff like quartz or corrundum as the return in profit is extremely low for the amount/space it will take in the hold of a ship like the C1 and also the time it adds to the refining process. I'd rather do more runs 3-4 and keep only the t2/t1 content. But i guess to each's own.
Lucky? Surely it was pure skill..... :D I really don't mind the added time, I'm in no rush to collect. Sometimes those completed jobs stay there for days...
It really depends on what you use to move stuff around. A caterpillar will have enough space for t3 materials as well
Love the new paint skin, mining has changed so much over the last year or so. but now the prospector can mine much it would be nice if they gave it the bigger bags as standard. did you have any mods running I didnt see any? like the filter or one that helps with the charge window ? if that is still a thing lol
you can see the mining laser configuration on the lower left side. It seems that the Prospector is only equipped with a Klein-S1 Mining Head, which makes sense as the Klein has no Module Slots. Nor does he use a mining Gadget on the Rock.
No mods available for this mining head, and no gadgets in this session :)
yep the game loop I will always enjoy. o7 😎👍
Same here!
20:05 Uhh, group mining would be awesome! I guess you have few nice people in your community that would join you in a Mole...
I think so!
Yes, Mole mining too please!
+1 for MOLE!
What’s your favorite refining method and why?
Thanks for the content!
I enjoy the mining gameplay. Could you do a video with the mole?
Will do!
We need ship categories lol the massive list hurts my brain! 😂
I know, right?!
I need to grab myself a Prospector one of these days.
Not too expensive with aUEC!
I'm completely new to this game. I have had my eye on it for several years, but have not really had a serious look at it for a while now and, I can say from what I have seen so far, I'm absolutely blown away. I think that when I finally do buy a game package, which I'm hoping will be very soon, I think mining is going to be one of my most preferred things that I will want to do. One thing I would like to know is, can you do mining without a specialized ship like the prospector, or mole?
Not really - ship mining needs a mining ship, like the Prospector or Mole. But you can rent a Prospector at a refinery deck to give it a try, and ultimately, you can buy one in game. You don't have to buy one with real cash.
Thanks for that, I thought that may be the case. It's nice that you can rent ships though.@@Farrister
Last night I came across 3 massive 20k+ rocks filled with quantanium all less than 5000m away from each other. Wish I was in my mole :/
Are you running any modules with that Klein-s1?🙂
From memory it doesn't have any slots
If you get close the 100% inert rocks and shoot them. They rescan and the true contents show.
Wait, really?!
@@Farrister Ya mon. I had a few trips where every rock started as 100% inert. Think it lag or desync or something. Like the un scannable rocks from older patches. Had to shoot them first.
Hey mate, I'd like to see mining and group mining over salvaging. I know the moneymaking isn't comparable right now, but I come to really like the gameplay loop and want to know the ins and outs better.
46 sek ago, i never was that early haha
Sometimes it's nice to take your time ;)
Ida has great mining ⛏️
Can you maybe show the transport of the cargo too, would definitely like to see the profit you can get from the mole as well
Noted!
@@Farrister I just like to see the full experience since I can't afford a PC that can run star citizen
Do you find distance to affect mining? I hard rock , should you get the laser closer? Or no diffrence?
Yes it does, although there's an optimum which is shown on HUD
Those 100% inert are a bug, if you wait a few moment more for the server to catch up and the scan to complete it will show the real 'content'
Thanks, will give it a try next time!
Will you be covering the ARRASTRA?
Yes, I think so
Is asteroid mining currently broken? I've been dabbling with my prospector and have gone to Lagrange points to scan for rocks and can't find any I can interact with. Is it just best to stick to planetary mining?
I think they're there, albeit not super common. Have you tried the Aaron Halo?
Can you still swap the mole bags for the ones on the prospector?
I haven't tried it, but I wouldn't be surprised!
Speeding up the travelling was a great idea, but with the insane quality of animation and textures this game has speeding up the part when you're getting into the ship was unnecessary.
i like u to teach me how to do mining
group mining. please.
MORE MOLE!
Unplayable,with every refinery terminal is stock on a sign out stage, unfortunately.
Seems like a frequent bug right now :(
stop playing star citizen when they destroyed mining for the prospector and I will never play again.
