I don´t know how all of youtubers at ED find the diamonds so quickly. It takes me ages till I find a decent one, or those that you can explode. Seriously, I don´t know how do they manage to make those 200 millions in an hour. I can do 200 millions in 3 hours, but not faster than that. I landed in that sweet spot and for me it was exactly like many other rings with LT diamonds. Anyway, thanks for the video.
There’s some pretty awesome min/maxing I’ve seen on getting the most out of every second of mining. I’m more of a casual in compression. There’s a couple comments that describe some good strategies. Thanks for watching!
Been doing trading and passenger runs not to big on the passenger runs so decided to try mining bust recommended ltds and here I am very in depth guide made my first mining experience actually fun and useful kudos
I really love mining in this game. It took about 3 hours for me to get it down, from scratch, but once I did understand the process, it was well worth it.
I use a Krait Phantom with 2 seismic charge launchers and 2 abrasion blasters and 104T of cargo capacity currently mining LTD's Grandidite and Void opals from Delkar 9. Be switching up to a Python when I make another 50 million and get up to 200 million in the bank.
some people have made huge fortunes doing this, have managed 935m per run(576 +10) when the markets been good... I use 3 medium lasers with 3 limpets per gun on a cutter and swap out 2 of my collectors for a FSD booster & scoop at a close station before I jump to the selling location - and swap back after loading with limpets- mining is one of those things that the more yo do it the more successful you get - thats if you pay close to the environment and learn from it
i find that using 2 lasers on a type 9 heave along with 1 abrasion one sub surface displacement charge and one seismic charge launcher does just fine fit the type 9 heavy with as much cargo as you can with a decent refinery and 2 limpet controllers one 3A one 5A so you can run 5 limpets that live long enough to move from one roid to another and don't require a ton of limpet ammo and one prospector limpet the pulse wave analyzer is optional but can help you fine asteroid with cores that at times harbor diamonds and every diamond counts,. once you find a hotspot you like and get in it stick to the outside of the belt where there are fewer asteroids floating. the more densely packed the roids the less you find roids with diamonds. ive been testing this for a while but if you stay near the top or bottom of the belt in the less dense roid populated area's your more likely to find diamonds. the %'s vary but almost every asteroid i mine that has them in it is on the outer edges of the belts i normally variate from top to bottom of the belt. if this works for anyone else please let me know ^_^
It's kinda weird. Every how-to says you need to pulse and investigate the yellow asteroids. Every time I do that however, the rock is a dud.... What am I doing wrong? I spend so many limpets on scanning asteroids and go on pure luck to find them....
It takes seeing a few real ones before you can tell the difference. Get up close and if it stays bright you have a winner. Otherwise it may be bright at a distance but dim up close
Thanks mate, great vid/tips. Returning ED noob here. Just kitted out my Cobra Mk III for mining yesterday and hit the Borann hotspots. Didn't find a single LTD asteroid in 2 runs and over 2 hours out there. Has it been totally sucked dry or am I doing something wrong perhaps...? Are the LTDs only at planet A2 ring B, correct? How do I distinguish that from ring A? I just supercruised into the centre of the LTD hotspot marker & started mining the brightest roids. Then I read that they're best for deep core & I need to go for the translucent orange wire-mesh ones for surface mining, eh. But still, not a single LTD detected by all my prospectors makes me think I'm doing something very wrong. I'm playing in Solo for now btw, I assume that doesn't matter.
Solo shouldn’t matter. Also they shouldn’t run out, but you’re not the first to comment that it’s hard to find. I haven’t been in that area for a bit lemme go have a look
@@NuLevelNerds Cheers, will try any/all roids when I get into a hotspot. With the Cobra Mk III I have 32 cargo so can fill that up with limpets, but does that mean I have 31 prospectors at the very most I can send out to find a LTD or Painite say, as I have to keep at least 1 in reserve for collecting, right? Also, the collectors don't move from 1 asteroid to the next, right? i.e. after u exhaust a roid & move to the next they won't move with you or come back into the hold, they just die.
Collector limpets will follow you after exhausting an asteroid, they survive for about a minute and a half off the top of my head. It helps by having the larger limpet controllers to send out two or three at a time, but if you send one off just before moving on it will follow you
@@NuLevelNerds Cheers! I assume you mean a nearby asteroid, not shoot off at top speed! ;) So I guess if you use most of them for prospecting & are left with just a few collectors, you can mine a few more rocks if you're very gentle & careful with them, yeah?
@@NuLevelNerds Yeah would be curious to know if I'm wasting my time, as fun as mining is this early on. I guess I'd be happy with finding any more valuable ore at this stage! The best I got on my 1st 2 runs was a few Tritium, which ain't bad, but only 1/10th of what the big guns are pulling in! --- Tried again last night & only found Tritium again. I realised I need to target each roid with a 'T' to see what the prospector found inside it. That way I can skip the crap ones. But still, no LTDs in the Borann A 2 LTD hotspots I assume other players have bookmarked (yes, I did do a surface scan initially & can clearly see the bright yellow spots on the ring & fly straight into the middle of the solid yellow areas where the roids are densest...eh). I use 2X2D turreted mining lasers - do I need fixed ones instead, or an Abrasion Blaster perhaps? I should also mention, several times I shot the prospector out I almost immediately get the msg "Prospector limpet failed..." but then I see it shooting off into the rock & doing a full internal scan as expected - what's that all about? :-/ Maybe I'm in the wrong ring? Should I be in the middle of the wide outer rings where 2 or 3 of the bright yellow hotspots overalap (as per nav bookmark), or the thin, inner bluish ring...? :-/ I'll take a screenshot tonight of where I go in & post it if I'm still not finding any. May try the Painite hotspots - can't be as much of a pain as LTDs lol! --- Success! I finally found 1.5 LTDs total in a double hotspot, just off centre. Found a lot of Bromellite & 4 Tritium, before I hit my first LTD roid, more by chance. I gave up on using prospectors as they were just coming back with crappy rocks, so I saved the limpets for collectors. I dragged them with me for as long as they survived from roid to roid, giving each a bit of laser to see what chunks come off. Lo & behold, I eventually found a LTD roid & got a dozen fragments from it & almost 1T total! :) If anyone can advise a more efficient way to use the prospectors I'd be much obliged. Is there a knack for choosing which roids to target? I still get the "prospector limpet failed' message every now & then when I shoot them, but they seem to hit the roid & scan the contents anyway, so no idea what that's all bout. Btw, do I need an abrasion blaster or just the mining lasers are fine for surface scraping...? Might try my hand at subsurface & deep core at some stage, but will definitely need a larger ship with more slots - my Cobra only has a 20T cargo hold after the essentials for surface mining! I really don't want to remove the shield gen as it's saved me through a lot of scrapes, or my flight assists until I get better. I make do without a fuel scoop, though I've seen others' loadouts who don't use the assists or even shield, which I think is crazy, but hey, each to theit own! One guy uses 3D & 1D collectors - what's the benefit other than having up to 3 out at once...or is it just that? So many options...I think the allure of ED is just the sheer complexity & options one has to learn & decisions to make. I'm not normally a big fan of sandbox games, I prefer my mmos to be quest & story based with character building, but this has got me really sucked in the 2nd time around - who would have thought?
As someone new to the game this was only partially helpful. I could go to this exact place but have no idea how you did anything beyond firing the limpit , looking at the prospector limit data? where are you seeing this info?
Usually we script out our videos but I wanted to try simplifying the process by filming it in one take during a livestream. It’s definitely not one of our most descriptive videos
Oh man.. now I know why I never made any profit in my attempt to mine in this game! D: I have the game for like two weeks now and made like 50.000.000 credits just by trading missions (roughly translated: Economy Boosts), but it got quiete boring to just fly back and forth all the time. And so when I reached the 50 million I sold my Keelback and got myself a Python, equipped for mining. I had the raffinery, the drones, the mining lasers.. but I didn't know about the pulse wave analyzer! I just shot prospector limpets at asteroids and hoped for the best. As a result I always used like 100 drones for 2 diamonds :( Yesterday I sold my mining gear and switched to the trading gear again, but.. maybe I should give it another try with that analyser. That thing seems like it might fasten up the process. Not sure if I'm gonna have more success in my like fifth attempt at mining in this game, but thanks for the video. I'm incompetent by nature, but.. your video made me a bit less incompetent in this game, and that's great! =) So.. flying to a ring, shooting a probe at it, fly whereever some hotspots overlap and use the analyser.. and then shoot probes at the yellow ones. I should be able to do that! Right now I'm bad at everything but trading in this game. I hope I can change that later that day, thanks to your vid here!
Awesome good luck with that! Since you’re new to the game I might recommend our other Elite Dangerous tutorials as well, we have a playlist for them ua-cam.com/play/PLYjUQOWyOGqP0YqXiWo5kFx4IANgtkE-S.html
@@NuLevelNerds Thanks! I'll make sure to check them out once I'm done with my home office duties for today! When it comes to most game mechanics I've barely scratched the surface.. Learning by doing did not work well for me so far in this game, I'm still enjoying it though :)
annnd one more question. When using the pulse. Should the asteroid have the same level of redness as ones containing opals. Like I tried hunting LTD'S last night and I did not see any rocks glowing like opals. Because if you say no. I'm going to lose my miiiind lol
I just started this game 3days ago i spent 4hrs jumping to borann and i haven't had any luck finding ltd just liquid oxygen and other cheap stuff any suggestions on what i may be doing wrong would be greatly appreciated.
How relevant is this now with the new update (in terms of mining locations)? I'm new to the game trying to figure out mining but I don't know where to find good spots but it seems like things changed with this new update.
CAn you mine opals and diamonds well with lasers ? I tried the suggested siesmic charger with abrasion blaster method . But is is such a ball ache and I only seem to get a few of the total I eventually find .
You are covering up all the information on exactly how and what is going on... what the prospector shows you when it finds a good/bad rock etc. where you are in relation to the hot spot...
Yeah it’s not one of our clearest tutorials. We usually go through a scripting process and I wanted to see if I could skip that. Thank you for the feedback
How do you get the diamonds into the hopper? My inventory says 24% low temp diamonds but when I get to the station eddb told me I can't sell them. Your inventory has an icon with crystals...mine doesn't.
One more question When it says "program prospector limpit" "Prospector limpit failed" But it still launches and gives me asteroid data.....is the data it gives in error?
@@patanderson2960 That usually means that your previous prospector limpit was turned off so that you could launch a new one. At least, that's how it seems to work for me.
Thanks buddy. I agree, I recorded it on stream and halfway through a viewer told me it was getting loud, sorry about that! The rest of our Elite tutorials are more produced than this one
When you enter the surface scanner mode, you scan the planet by firing probes at it that scan a certain radius. Check the options menu under "detailed surface scanner" for the controls. The probes do not need to be bought and the payout for scanning planets is pretty good. There is also an efficiency bonus if you can use a few probes as possible
@@NuLevelNerds lame! no wonder I wasn't finding anything when I flew out there, picked up 6 of em in a few hours of searching even tho it said it was a hot spot lmao. I just went back to flying the rich around xD
If you’re just surface mining, you can fire anywhere. The other techniques require more specific aim. Check out our laser mining tutorial here ua-cam.com/video/A6-2QOqPpTY/v-deo.html and also on the other techniques ua-cam.com/video/1AIMSgWn6iQ/v-deo.html
Check out hawkes gaming low temp diamonds mining guide. It’s a lot better and actually shows you how to find high priced buyers. Also an hour and a half he should have had more like 150 LTDs he was slow because the conda sucks for mining. Not enough power with the amount of lasers he had. Use only 2 or 3 so you can just keep firing them until the asteroid is drained.
I use conda for mining, last night got 151 LTD under 2 hours. 3 lasers, drains roids in about 20sec with maybe 2 breaks shooting, but doesn't matter so much because my Max amount of collectors are already grabbing them. I spend maybe 2 min per roid.
I pafer doing it at a rate my limpets can keep up no point in going fast all it does is sling then diamonds everywhere and takes more time i use 2 cargo racks and a collect limpit the extra limpits makes life easier
Such a dumb method i wasted 2 hours of my life tryna get these low temp diamonds, i scanned the rings i landed on the low temp diamonds location it took me hours to find the mineral diamond and when i found it it wad called hydrogen peroxide, i started shooting directly at it with my 2 mining lasers and all that kept coming out were water and liquid oxygen something like that so I returned sold them and go only 1k credits when i was supposed to return with a inv full of diamonds and get over 120 mil credits :/ i was using a dolphin btw
I did, followed multiple guides (including this one), did everything they said, and in like 4 hours (and multitudes of orange-yellow rocks, only one produced any ltds. Oh yeah. It wasn’t enough to even refine. So now I’ve got about 95% refine ltds that I can’t do anything with. I have found a bunch of liquid oxy, and methanol monohtdrate crystals though. A bunch of good that’ll do me.
Don’t waste your time on LTD bullshit. Blows my mind that an area is listed as LTD triple hotspot but only one out of every 20 lit up gold rocks has a bullshit amount of LTD. All that 200 mil an hour is fucking bullshit.
I got really boqrd flying from one space station to another looking for parts so i can then go mining. Yay the grind, oh the wonderful grind to get no where. O woot woot. I got more from doing passenger missions than mining. To get any where you have to collect a ore that qs far qs i can tell you can not get anywhere, this title is so frustrating its beyond belief. Yqy we now have carriers on the way. O woot woot. Whats the point in them? No low level players can afford them. There us no content. This title is heading to the scrap yard of gqme titles qnd the devs dont care. All they want to do if nuff the title to death.
You might find eddb.io helpful, it’s a website where if you enter in the module you’re looking for it’ll tell you where to find it. Saves a lot of time, good luck!

@@NuLevelNerds lame! no wonder I wasn't finding anything when I flew out there, picked up 6 of em in a few hours of searching even tho it said it was a hot spot lmao. I just went back to flying the rich around xD
How did you find system for sell LTD ?????
Just googled it, there is a hive of information out there
wait, so, you don't need a Ses. charge for low temp diamonds like opals
Correct, fastest way is surface mining
Also, do you have to mine a specific spot on the ltd rock? or can u mine anywhere on the rock
If you’re just surface mining, you can fire anywhere. The other techniques require more specific aim. Check out our laser mining tutorial here ua-cam.com/video/A6-2QOqPpTY/v-deo.html and also on the other techniques ua-cam.com/video/1AIMSgWn6iQ/v-deo.html
how do you find so many diamonds so fast? i've been looking in the super yellow ones for like an hour and got 2 diamonds
I think since I made this, they nerfed diamonds. There’s a new mining leader now and it might be void opals but I can’t recall for sure
Pulse wave is irrelevant for laser mining. It only identifies asteroids that have deposits.
This game looks so coool, aahhh
I’ve played it on and off for 4 years, but I always come back to it
Check out hawkes gaming low temp diamonds mining guide. It’s a lot better and actually shows you how to find high priced buyers.
Also an hour and a half he should have had more like 150 LTDs he was slow because the conda sucks for mining. Not enough power with the amount of lasers he had. Use only 2 or 3 so you can just keep firing them until the asteroid is drained.
Thanks for the suggestion! You can definitely do better than I did at finding them, I didn't max out my build or use my time wisely
I use conda for mining, last night got 151 LTD under 2 hours. 3 lasers, drains roids in about 20sec with maybe 2 breaks shooting, but doesn't matter so much because my Max amount of collectors are already grabbing them.
I spend maybe 2 min per roid.
@@DeathTempler Nice that's some good numbers there dude
I pafer doing it at a rate my limpets can keep up no point in going fast all it does is sling then diamonds everywhere and takes more time i use 2 cargo racks and a collect limpit the extra limpits makes life easier
Good stuff, great suggestions!
so i should go here to pirate the ltd's too right? asking for a friend
Heck yeah, though lots of people are going solo for places like this. I’d still try it out if I were you
Such a dumb method i wasted 2 hours of my life tryna get these low temp diamonds, i scanned the rings i landed on the low temp diamonds location it took me hours to find the mineral diamond and when i found it it wad called hydrogen peroxide, i started shooting directly at it with my 2 mining lasers and all that kept coming out were water and liquid oxygen something like that so I returned sold them and go only 1k credits when i was supposed to return with a inv full of diamonds and get over 120 mil credits :/ i was using a dolphin btw
There’s a planet called Arrakis where that stuff sells for bank
i cant even see the hilighted area's so I have to guess... never found a diamond in my keelback.
I’m assuming you used the detailed surface scanner probes? There might be a graphical glitch that requires a restart to see them
@@NuLevelNerds just using the standard surface scanner
How do u do the lights on the ring thing?
You need a detailed surface scanner, and to put it in your fire group. Then get close enough to a planet and activate it
Ive been 20 min in a LTP diamond hopstop and found one asteriod
Wow is that it? There’s some good tips in the comments here as to which asteroids are most likely to have them, I recommend reading through
I’m doing 24 jumps just to get to Borann now.
Awesome good luck!
I did, followed multiple guides (including this one), did everything they said, and in like 4 hours (and multitudes of orange-yellow rocks, only one produced any ltds. Oh yeah. It wasn’t enough to even refine. So now I’ve got about 95% refine ltds that I can’t do anything with. I have found a bunch of liquid oxy, and methanol monohtdrate crystals though. A bunch of good that’ll do me.
Don’t waste your time on LTD bullshit. Blows my mind that an area is listed as LTD triple hotspot but only one out of every 20 lit up gold rocks has a bullshit amount of LTD. All that 200 mil an hour is fucking bullshit.
They nerfed it after I made the video, I believe crossover hotspots don't have the same impact anymore
Nice video but too many mining lasers xd
LOL! Yes, that was definitely the wrong idea
I got really boqrd flying from one space station to another looking for parts so i can then go mining. Yay the grind, oh the wonderful grind to get no where. O woot woot. I got more from doing passenger missions than mining.
To get any where you have to collect a ore that qs far qs i can tell you can not get anywhere, this title is so frustrating its beyond belief. Yqy we now have carriers on the way. O woot woot. Whats the point in them? No low level players can afford them. There us no content. This title is heading to the scrap yard of gqme titles qnd the devs dont care. All they want to do if nuff the title to death.
You might find eddb.io helpful, it’s a website where if you enter in the module you’re looking for it’ll tell you where to find it. Saves a lot of time, good luck!
Borann is ruined
Ruined, how so?
Try there’s no ltds left.
youtube sucks
You don't have a clue what your it
I have a clue, there are definitely those better at min/maxing
