Quick update - there are 2 more refineries: ARC-L4 and MIC-L5 that I just learned about thanks to the comments. I’ll get stats and update the attachments.
The great thing is there’s so much to learn and like I said as a fresh guide there are going to be things I miss!
What about CRU-L2 ?
@@is-sam Can confirm no refinery at CRU-L2 (no station at CRU-L2).
@@LoudGuns Apparently, there used to be a refinery station at CruL1, but CIG removed it several years ago for some reason, and never put it back in when the added all the other Lagrange refineries a couple of patches ago. Maybe CIG just forgot that it wasn’t there any more?
Typing error. I meant to say Cru L2.
I hate the way you pronounce Hofstede 'Hoff-stead-uh'... I pronounce it 'Hoff-steed'. Sounds more bad ass IMHO. Thanks for this guide though, as a greenhorn who got enough to upgrade his cutlass into a prospy, Imma have to use every bit of info in here to try to make some mad money.
FUN FACT: You can upgrade your Prospectors bags! Find a MOLE slavage mission (if you don't see one you need to complete a slaving mission to expand the list) fly your Prospector over, unlock your bags from your seat, fly out and rip the bags off your ship, install the bag off the MOLE onto the Prospector (use the R key to spin the bags they can be tricky to snap in) and BOOM you just went from 32 SCU to 48 SCU CAPACITY!
Like this? How to get 48 SCU on a Prospector!
ruclips.net/video/wObLv6WsmIU/видео.html 😂
i have completed about 10 salavahe missions and they wont upgrade
@@ahmedfarah4094 have jumped around to differnet planets? I genreally get one pretty often at Cursader
I just saw another mining guide that says the Klein laser is not recommended. So now I’m confused lol
@@ahmedfarah4094make sure you ships ports are unlocked and swap the bags then relock your ports. Stow your ship at a station and go into the vehicle manager, take something off of your ship and save. Pull your ship out so it’s physicallized and re-stow it. Go back to the vehicle manager and reattach what you took off and save. That’s what I have to do on some of my ships. Hopefully that helps you 😊
The quality of Loud Guns' mining guides are one of few consistent things in a changing verse.
😂 Thanks Bruce 🙏
A bit late to the party, but as always absolutely stellar work! You‘re such an underappreciated creator, putting so much work into it
Great job! A couple things you didn't mention: in space while scanning, you need to get to about 1350m in order to scan the rock you are aiming at, and on a planet/moon surface, you need to get to about 315m. Also, you can currently put the mole ore bags on the prospector to increase it's capacity! You always have the best mining guides and you really made it make sense when I first started SC. Thanks!!!
Cheers mate, always a few things you miss! I didn’t go into the saddle bags though as (just my view) I doubted that was intentional and reckon we’ll probably see that patched.
Just in case it IS intentional and one wonders on how to get the bags of a mole without having one, look out for salvaging missions with a mole. IIRC, the legal ones are tier two, but the private ones are tier one and cost 10k aUEC, so they can be done right from the start without needing to ramp up reputation and therefore no need to have a salvaging ship available. Once attached to the prospector, they are covered by the insurance and will retain if you claim your ship, either for transport or after destruction.
@@Dschonny i hadnt seen this post before i posted the question :p
He got me into mining aswell❤
What?! Can i increase my prospectors capacity?
Where can i get those bags if I dont have a Mole?
Do i Cheng them in the same menu as i change mining lasers?
Amazing job on this video, thanks for all the hard work that went into it, much appreciated!
Thank you for the time you take to get us such detailed guides.
Excellent guide, appreciate the time and effort out into this. Cheers mate! ❤
One of the reasons I was interested in pursuing SC after watching it for years was the enthusiasm and professionalism you brought to your vidoes. The mining looked fun and profitable. Your efforts to explain even minor details to enhance the experience for everyone was a great credit to your passion. After joining the Discord and meeting the Org I was hooked.
Thank you again to you and the Org for all you do to bring our Dream so much closer to fruition.
Love your stuff. Great content, very thorough and well done
Thanks Loudguns, great video .... as always. Great detail and insight. Can't can't wait to dust off the prospector, reset my mindset re quant and see what's out there!
I like the changes they made to the materials, rocks, and modules, we needed a change from the "find Quant" meta. However since the patch dropped, i lost so much money on repairing my ship because of lost modules and random disconect/30Ks when transporting 500k+ of cargo to the closest TDD and 30k protection not working resulting in the ship being destroyed or left with the only option to claim the ship after a long wait and lose the cargo. All this takes out the fun of the game when you like to "farm" to reach goals and just lose everything to bugs..
Other than that, very nice and complete guide once again, ty for helping and sharing knowledge
Not once have I lost cargo during 30k. Don't claim yourself like a smooth brain. Go to your primary residence and retrieve it.
Good video man. Appreciate the work!
Excellent work - very helpful guide as always!
Superb guide, thanks for your hard work.
Thanks for all the time and dedication to making this! THANK YOU.
As alaways an amazing video and an excellent guide!
Thanks for all the hard work that went into getting data and creating that video!
I wondered about the 3.19 changes - great presentation boss! 🙂 Thanks!
Thank you Sir. The most complete video on mining i have seen. And a good one on top of that.
One of the best, if not the best, mining guides I've ever watched!!!! Awesome! Bookmarked it!
This is by far the best star citizen mining guide i have watched. Thank you very much for this.
This was exactly what I was looking for , was a hardcore Prospe miner but have been out of the loop on whats been going on since I gave up after the disaster 3.18 launch , was completely lost with all of the new options for mining and this has helped out massively , cant thank you enough for the effort you put in to this
The best practical guide for mining in the verse. Thank you.
always a pleasure watching your videos.
Thanks Arras!
@Loud Guns!
Man - always great videos for the mining community.
This has to be one of the best out there on what is the most complex mining has been so far to date.
I'm back to enjoying my solo Mole. 😊
Your content is some of the best I’ve seen for any game. Your tutorials are ridiculously thorough, carefully explained and very well done. Thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge.
Fantastic video! Why you do not have 500k subs is beyond me. Well made and easy to listen to. Keep up the great work. I am new to mining and have been playing for 2 months now. Having a blast and you made it so much more fun and easier to understand.
Awesome video! Thank you so much for putting this together!
Thank you for this invaluable resource!
simply awesome job!
Nice guide. I mostly mined in Eve online. Can’t wait to try it in SC. It will be awesome when you can eventually transfer saddle bags to/from a hauler and have large scale mining ops.
Awesome video. This helps a lot. Thank you for putting it together.
This was one of the most useful mining guids, I ever saw for SC! No bla bla just straight to the point. Cheers 🎉
I've watched this ten times already and it gets better each time!
Impressive!
The ultimate guide right here. I'm not really into mining anymore but this is extremely helpful for anyone who is!
Cheers HoY!
It's NOT the ultimate guide since he doesn't even know about ARC-L4 and MIC-L5 refineries ...
@@dom38_fr82 yep I learned that thanks to people in the comments (everyone has things to learn - otherwise life would be boring).
I steal mined stuff from miners.. I find it fun to be evil in game
Not played in a while myself since like 3.17 or so, been to busy with school and now work but will log on to check out some of the event now.
I only run a cutlass black or Andromeda to haul to market, and i only do one refining run per trip to not loose everything if something happens.
Great and informative video, thanks for the hard work putting it together.
Really good info, appreciated.
Спасибо, друг! Узнал много нового и мне понравилось то, что ты очень подробно разобрал каждую деталь, это действительно ценная информация для меня 👍
I have a very, very large cup of green tea while watching this masterpiece. Thank you!
Haha cheers Grizzly. Tbf I almost said a pot of tea on this one 🫖
Best video on mining. Thank you.
Nice work as usual!
what a blast of a video! Life-changing experience right here! Get it while you still can!
Join the church of quantanium!
These guides are always great! I have gotten people into mining by sending them your guide for the last patch. I'm back playing after a few months away and have about 1.3 mil in game right now, saving up for a mining ship. I didn't realize how much of an overhaul the mining has had, it's really quite incredible! I'm really looking forward to seeing how these other materials have a use later on in the game. I'm certain that eventually even tier 3 metals will be worth mining, probably for that construction ship.
Perfect timing. I just watched Red Monster SC's 3.19 update video, right after your previous guide. I'm new and have only played for about 20 hours but watching the old guide, getting the jist of the 3.19 changes. Then capping it off with this updated guide has just saved me headaches of trying old strategies and allows me to narrow down my approach to mining. Thanks a lot for the effort. Cheers! 🍻
Nice! Tbh I’m hoping these changes help people widen out their approach to mining - if nothing else at least you can see more of the system!
Back for your 3.19 guide, thank you for teaching me twice!
Just got into SC, right now im finishing my first run selling at Lorville, love you're channel it's really helpful.
Thank you
Something I tested and used successfully today including refining with the prospector:
*You will need a multitool with a tractor beam attachment*
Before heading out to mine, grab your prospector and take the 10,000 auec salvaging mission for the mole, fly there asap. When you arrive park yourself along side the wreck as closely aligned as possible.
Press Alt+K to unlock your modules, then leave the ship and fly below,
The default tractor beam will be able to pull the existing bags off the ship, do then then drag one bag at a time from the wreck and place the new bag in place. If you have done this without turning the bag while moving it will go align easy. Now instead of 32 SCU you with have 48 SCU.
There isn't really anything of use left on the wreck so consider the 10k cost will be replaced with fewer trips required to refine...
are those bags persistent between logouts?
@@TheDav783 Yes thankfully
first time wtching your vids. Friend of mine sent me here cause I was still on Team Lancet. RIP. Thank you Loud for the info. Very informative.
That's one hell of a guide!
Best miner in the business! Thanks Loud.
Great guide! Thanks.
Brilliant Tutorial, thank you 👍
Best Guide ever, thank you! Really well done
Thanks mate - glad it helps!
This is great mining guide!
Great video thanks, super informative, I haven't mined in ages and had no idea what I was doing lol
You're a star! ⭐
As are you ⭐️
absolutelly amazing video! There are a few little things left out which are a bit of a struggle for a pure SC newbie like me:
- where you buy modules and how to equip/use them? (like surge module)
- maybe a quick mention of mining laser locations to buy and how to equip them?
thanks for the guide!!
I have been playing for a week now and I ask questions on the in game chat. People in this game can be very helpful.
Thanks Loud, again an excellent video, and again i am sucked into SC, not for the money but for the experience!
Nice one Grandt!
Great work! My new Mining bible!
Thanks mate! Glad it’s useful!
Nice to know impossible rocks aren't always impossible. I've passed up plenty of them without even trying. 😭
I got one 14k rock with like 20% gold in it without a gadget using the Klein on a Prospector. That is the only impossible rock I’ve broke though.
Awesome video, thank you, thank you!
Absolutely excellent video. Thank you.
Thanks Eden 🙏
Many thanks for all your advices et video!
Thanks Mix!! 🙏
Great guide dude!
Cheers Ozzie!
Thanks for the love Loud Guns, Much Love from Cornerstone
OMG. I've been playing for 10 years and I never before heard, nor though about dotted line vs solid line being opposite side vs same side of planet! You da man!
Haha this is why I try to touch on things that seem obvious when you know them.
Thanks for this amazing guide.
Thanks for watching it! 👍
thanks so much loud guns you're the best!!!
Cheers Henry!!
Great guide, thanks for your effort.
Cheers mate! Labour of love to be honest!
That was a long one! Great vid once again. Highly enjoyed it.
An understatement 😂 Thanks for all your help with it mate!
that jump short cut really helped XD knowing that once i am within the orbit i can drop out then rejump to my mark { aka daymar etc } massive help XD
@Loud Guns very well presented i usually use my moles 3 laser as a dedicated extraction to lower the inherts on rocks that way i save space /gain more of other mats other than inhert that might be the best way to go. the laser it self that is up to you end of the day choose the best one that would still help you crack rocks but also help extract since the 3rd laser would mainly be for the extraction only and there to provide a bit more extra oof to crack a rock if you need too.
A great vid!
Time to get my rented prospector on, and crack a rock or 2!!
Oh i forgot to say Great Video and to thank you for all the Video you do for the community !
Thanks mate 🙏 Labour of love honestly!
Thank u soooo much, u have no idea how much it means.. This guide help me a lot thx
Super usefull, thank you for all info.
Great guide!
Cheers Justin!
Awesome info, Loud Guns - thanks heaps o7
o7 & thanks for watching LeetTreet!
what a video! so helpful thx
Watched the whole thing and it's opened my eyes to mining with more than just a ROC, I'd like a prospector but looks like Mole is a simply better investment since it has a bigger cargo, but for now I still need to do a whole lot of ROC mining to earn the credits for any of these ships. Overall I appreciate the time you've put into editting this video and sharing your knowledge. Great job and you've earned my sub
Musashi Industrial* and Starflight Concern. Very informative! Great work as always!
Oops what did I say?
Brilliant thanks!
great video thank you
I'm telling you man. All the small fine details is what we need for games like SC. 10/10
I was just thinking of dragging out the Prospector for the first time in a year.. thanks for the guide!
It’s a brand new experience for sure!
I forgot to mention, I was just on a laggy server and failed a group ERT as the last bounty didn’t spawn.. and Eradicator was complaining on global that his Prospector went ‘unknown’ when he went from hanger to ASOP.. told him he can’t do anything except claim 🤷♂️
Let's goooo! Been waiting for this!
Let’s goooooo!
Excellent guide Loud, really detailed and helpful. I am new to this game and need all the knowledge i can get. The one thing i want is to get some friends into this game, unfortunately no one i know id interested 🤷 makes no sense to me as im loving every second
Neat that they cut down scan times with more plentiful rocks, and made multi-crew more challenging. Great guide!
Yeah something I love is that you spend way more time cracking rocks and less purely scanning.
Great content dude!!!! Thanks a lot
Thanks Cosmo!
I'm a patient man, but man was the new mining system driving me insane, but LG you've done it again with an expertly crafted mining guide! I wish I was in a position to sub to your patreon, but I guess my patronage here will have to suffice.
Thanks mate 🙏 Honestly never feel like you have to go to Patreon, just watching vids and hanging out is more than enough.
Good stuff.
really good informing vid. thank you :)
Thanks mate 🙏
@LoudGuns Love your videos. They’re so helpful and thorough. Definitely the best put together guides out there. I was REALY hoping you had a link to that excel doc for profits. Can you please share!
Here it is! The much awaited Loud Guns vid!
Haha, it’s a Labour of love!
Excellent guide. I'm not 100% sure if this tip still works, but you used to be able to pickup a delivery mission item and drop it at a point in ther rocks you wanted to come back to. If you find a good load and don't have the SCU to pick it all up, then this might help.
Good shout, particularly if you were to find a cluster with a number of good rocks could be useful for sure. Personal beacons are something we desperately need though!
Superb.
ive been waiting for this one since i saw something about a new ore
Yeah it took some doing, a lot of new things to learn!
I still can’t decide wether the mole or prospector is the way to go. I’ve actually had a great time with the rented prospector so far so either way I’m excited. This has been an excellent video as always!
Use the prospector to earn money for the mole! best of both worlds. :)
@@iamjeramy that’s the new plan :)
Fantastic summary: I don't currently have a mining ship as I found the Quant meta boring and full of bugs, but I might consider coming back since there is now more variety in what you can collect and where.
Already came across a pair of 280,000 kg and 320,000 kg rock containing terenite, gold, barelite and aluminum. One MOLE with all the crew and recommended upgrades was not going to cut it. Even a second upgraded crewed MOLE wasn't good enough on the biggest rock so we invited a Prospector in to assist. These two rocks alone took over 20 minutes to crack as we tried to figure out who should have the controlling laser. After all was mined and refined I manage to sell the refined product for a whopping 760,000 UEC. All 7 of us had an initial 25,000 UEC advance on successful mining participation. Everyone got a followup 50,000 UEC bonus the next evening. The mining controller was left with 180,000 UEC. We count ourselves well organized, nicely upgraded and lucky.
Wow that’s huge! Yeah I love the challenge, and have had some similar experiences with a number of us sat around scratching our heads 😂
