good rental for hauling definitely

#

i'm gonna go for an andromeda because i'm doing the pyro missions so i could do with the upgrade

sterile narwhal
# velvet pasture 250k

take a look at the pyro missions you can get like 123k per one when you start - and stack them

velvet pasture
#

does pyro pay more?

sterile narwhal
#

significantly more

velvet pasture
#

but i assume pyro comes with a bigger risk

sterile narwhal

#

also maybe hauling illegal stuff

sterile narwhal
#

i just do the stanton gateway to pyro outpost missions for 250k each run

#

two 123k stacked

hmmmmmm

#

thats enticing

#

how many Gm?

the ones ive had are 60-80

i can do 8 small hauling quests in the same time as 1 medium, sad the mediums dont give more money to make it worth doing them

#

@flint forge

flint forge
#

doing a member small cargo haul for 81k and being able to take a bunch of other for extra money or doing a medium cargo haul for 91k and have no room to take anything else, still means its worth more money (and rep) to do the small ones, and just hit a couple of stations in a row

#

Is there a quick way to judge if a rock can/can't be mineable by your ship? Certain mass or resistance?

strong nimbus
#

looking for a load out for my roommate and i to use in a MOLE any suggestions?

sterile narwhal
flint forge
#

if i move 8 SCU for a member rank mission for 60k
or move 92 SCU for a member rank mission for 50k
the rep is both the same as they are both member rank missions
yet i could accept more smaller member rank missions or fill up with lower rank missions to get a bigger payout on the same route
thus the bigger member rank mission becomes absolute, since the pay out and the rep is the same as the small one, but the small one can be stacked

#

so rep and money would both be higher by stacking small ones on the same route then just moving 1 medium one

#

so if i look at it from a logical way, for higher SCU volumes you need a bigger ship, thus higher costs, so those should pay more

is there a chart that shows how mutch missions I need to do in each rank of cargo contract?

mild pumice
# shut tapir is there a chart that shows how mutch missions I need to do in each rank of carg...

I haven't seen one but it's roughly twice the amount of the previous rank and the rep doubles per rank so if you do lower rank missions they're less effective with the exception of when it's quicker to stack multiple lower rank missions and complete them faster than a single of the desired rep.

An example I'm stacking 3x Experienced Rank missions that give 2000xp each, I can do these faster than a single Senior Rank mission that gives 4000xp.

Jnr is 500xp, Member is 1000xp, Experienced is 2000xp, Senior 4000xp, Master is 8000xp

flint forge
mild pumice
#

Yeah the senior ones are all around 400scu x16 and drop at 3 or 4 locations, they can easily take an hour to do whereas I can stack up 3 or 4 experienced rank locals or small solar and do them faster

I'm doing this little loop in a Hull A now (QT time is my discord time LOL)

im doing the "Magnus gateway -> everus contract than backspace"

i check where the stations are and then plan around that

then take a local group and take all job related to that

I try to mix up my loops so they don't get stale

#

all the jobs from all MIC stations that are close, and as long as theres 1 from the Member rank its worth more then doing 1 medium Member rank

mild pumice
#

I was stacking a couple of the 100scu mediums in my Starlancer but it was a lot of boxes to move

#

I prefer the smaller ones as it hurts my hands less, the 400scu ones in my Caterpiller I can only do one of those before my hands hurt

i move around 30 to 90SCU and do around 8 to 12 jobs in a single loop

I managed to get 3/4 through senior before the wipe it was a shame to lose that as was 100hrs or more lol

Hull a works fine for me

hull c however...

#

so i rented a C1 upgraded to a zeus CL and looking in to buying a C2

#

18m in still a steep price and a bunch of work tho

sonic fiber
#

Hull a is a pain to load though. Anything with a ramp feels easier to me

#

Maybe hull just needs more capacity to be competitive

#

Freelancer, corsair, Connie offer more utility

outer ridge
#

for plain small hauling hull a has no competition atm tbh

#

is my opinion ofc prayge

flint forge
#

C1 can move the same, tho more protected

#

and off grid you can move a bit more in the C1

im more of a fan of external loading, i am way faster with it and can organize it better per panel for multi location deliveries

# sonic fiber How do I move rocks out of a ROC into storage?

Put a storage container at the back of the ROC.
If you're fast enough, you can open both the container and ROC's inventory at the same time and transfer the gems.
Else, you can transfer the gems from the ROC into your backpack and into the container.

After that you can send the storage container down the freight elevator and unload the gems in your inventory to sell.

What’s the payout look like on high level cargo missions?

#

Senior missions all pay around 290-330k but they are all but a couple medium hauls around 300-400scu with 3 or 4 drops. They take such a long time tbh. Master are exactly the same but I've not seen their pay in 4.x

#

There's no small jobs after you reach Senior, there's only couple of local jobs, most are solar

#

@flint forge for experienced rank there's also multi drop local missions to DCs, I think these pay about 160k, they are the best ones to do, they can be stacked too

probably not. But I swear that a crate full of hadenite that I was sure I had lost was transported to my home location when 4.0.1 went live though. It was in a ship that was auto stored in Pyro when I logged off, and then I was never able to get back to it due to elevator issues. A couple weeks later I was selling stuff at A18 after the patch and there it was.

anybody that can tell me wich contracts get added on senior covalex contracts?

mild pumice
# thin crown anybody that can tell me wich contracts get added on senior covalex contracts?

Senior and Master ranks add mostly a selection of Medium Solar multi drop hauls, they go to 3 or 4 locations and are 16scu containers 300-400scu (I run them in my Cat) Senior pay in the range of 280-330k - it's still faster to make credits with the Local Experienced hauls but they offer a bit of variety I guess. I don't have the Master prices for 4.0 they used to pay 110k ish but I'm not sure what formula they used for the new 4.0 prices and it's a bit of a grind to get thru senior!

thin crown
mild pumice
#

There is one for Senior Rank, 711k so not really much difference. I don't know if there are any Hull C contracts for Master yet, this is the old data from 3.2x: (from reddit)

mild pumice
#

yeah so 698 to 711 isn't much of an increase for the rank!

#

It's weird how they work out the prices it's like just random numbers sometimes.

#

there's also one random large contract on Senior that pays 200k so makes no sense at all

#

Here's the examples of the missions, the value of the commodity might be factored into the mission reward:

#

'waste' might be why it pays badly?

thin crown
#

can idk, these are only contracts that ar doable with hull c so

#

for some strange reason contracts seems more stable, but sometimes it doesnt load all so you mis 1-3 boxes at the dropoff

mild pumice
#

yeah Hull C loading depends a lot on server health

Most of that you won't be able to buy in game, and also terrible if you wanna reduce your signature. You can't fight with that, so you don't wanna be seen from miles away.

Hi! I have a taurus and I'm a junior cargo hauler, what are the best mission to aim for?

#

I'm looking mostly for rep, and a bit of money

sharp swift
#

Stick to routes that are from space station to Lagrange. Planet-side locations can have buggy freight elevators

acoustic sage
#

And should I just be doing the highest paying?

Also should I worry about what cargo crate sizes its giving me

sharp swift
#

Locations that follow after a 3-letter location: ARC-L1/2/3/4/5

The L stands for Lagrange

But Baijini is the space station within the ARC loop/orbit

3.18 // 3.19 or so

#

Salvage is just salvage now. It makes good but not broken money, using a Vulture or Reclaimer.
It's doable with a cargo ship, going only for ship's components, mostly large weapons which can be valuable, but regular salvage is more common.

mild pumice
#

Unfortunately the sell prices of weapons are so low it's not worth it unless you just want them for personal use, for example I used to strip the 4x AD5Bs off the Redeemer salvage and the Military Shield for my Corsair.

mild pumice
#

The Hull C jobs are the best paying ones, 700k for around 30 mins work but they're particularly unreliable.

Otherwise it's the smaller local jobs that are the most profitable, the larger jobs for the C2 size loads eat up a lot of time loading/unloading and don't really compensate for that additional time.

Best advice is to play them and see what you enjoy doing.

when you dont abort the mission or finish it in time, you maybe get a CS and npc ships will attack

I found sometimes you can’t grab boxes off the cargo elevator, you have to be right next to the box on the elevator and tractor it outside the elevator. After that, all good.

Buddy of mine thinks it has something to with the instanced hangers “overlapping” each other and the game can’t tell if you’re trying to grab your cargo or someone else’s in a different hanger. But when you get up next to it, it recognizes everything.

Not cropped screenshot would help see the full information of your loadout and rock.

Some rocks appear as impossible but aren't always. You can start by getting closer, you're not really at optimal range. And see if you can do anything to it.

#

With a Sabir or Optimax gadget youcould greatly lower the resitance of the rock.
But if that's a 40000kg rock, you'll never crack it with a Prospector.

It's fairly easy to come back with a full prospector (32scu) in about 20 minutes, or a full Mole (96scu) in a bit more time. That's assuming you are being picky and looking for high value materials. Looking for common stuff like ice and tin, you can probably fill up a lot faster. You will almost certainly end up with stuff that isn't exactly what you are looking for, but still shouldn't take TOO long to get a supply or die mission worth of materials. It shouldn't be 8 hours to get 50 scu or anything like that. It will be longer than hitting buy on a terminal, but with terminals having lines around the whole station, it might be a better option at this point. You DO have to refine the material, which depending on how much you pay for refining will take anywhere from a few hours to 24 hours +. So it's a mine today, sell tomorrow sort of loop usually. But you can go out and keep mining of course while a job refines.

Exactly. There isn't much of an incentive for mining or salvaging when you just need to mad rush the ASOP and buy.

limpid sluice
#

I did detatrine with a large group, was fun, but the profit was meh. As stated above, the risk v reward aspect is completely backwards

royal hamlet
#

Right? The incentive to work contracts in large groups isn't there. It should be multi-tasked where there needs to be a group and sometimes split, to ensure soloing with high payouts isn't a thing.

#

Now it's just stand at a terminal, buy, load, drop off, get rich.

Noob question but I thought at least in 4.0.1 that mission payouts were 100% to all players participating. So if you complete a 50k bounty, every player got 50k. Did 4.0.2 revert that to give everyone just a percentage?

Best is still you run panels with Abrade module

Reclaimer used to be great for salvaging the components and weapons but the nerfs to the ship and the heavily reduced sale prices of components killed that.

They should rebalance the buy in prices for these contracts to line up with component sell prices having being massively reduced (all part of the anti duping effort)

Salvage missions buy in was also never realigned to the reduced RMC scrape rates and sales price.

#

so my buddy and i were in my mole earlier and i got out of the pilot seat and into a mining laser turret, so we had two lasers active, (both hofstede 2), and couldnt break the rock, (44500 11% resistance, and 55000 mass 20% resistance) and im wondering how we would be able to handle those , should i check out this helix+helix both with surge and sabir modules?

#

why wouldnt people have suggested me helix mining heads in the first place? is it in some way more challenging? like instability? or... if not i dont understand why helix wouldnt have been first suggested so there has to be some disadvantage to helix mining heads right?

#

just comparing these numbers , it seems helix+helix has 2-3x the mass capability per resistance as a hofstede

earnest halo
#

for instance if i want to wait till i have all i need for a supp or die mission, how long could i just leave those there until i acquire 248 SCU of both, before it would become an issue, or does it ever become an issue? (can you leave a finished job indefinitely?)

nvm i see how the sabir's work, but heres something i am very confused on , why is the helix not showing numbers until its combined with focus III and Rieger C3

are the individual laser heads of the focus and rieger uselesss until combined with two other laser heads?

So they're always applying their affect

earnest halo
# spare cloud Rieger and Focus are passive modules.

I'm not at my pc at the moment to use context to understand without asking but could you explain that further? What is a passive module, would that not be applied to your existing mining heads like the surge?

spare cloud
#

Passive modules are always active and unlimited.
Active ones like Surge have limited use, only last a few seconds each time

With your Helix + Rieger + Focus + Surge, the Reiger and Focus effects are always working.
Surge only is when you activate it.

Those 2 are modules. You unlock the ports then you can change out everything out on the mining site.

Gadgets are the one your place on the rock directly, by hand.
What's equipped on the mining head are modules

#

Active or passive, they're modules

Left Alt + K is to switch configurations yes.
Right Alt + K for ships ports

So when the mole chart is saying you want helix and hofstede and focus and reiger and surge, which do you put on which?

#

Oh, nvm think dura just answered that as I asked

earnest halo
#

Ty ❤️ and that probably even as a duo could handle just about any rock in the verse I'm assuming?

spare cloud
#

No, there are quite a few rocks that require multiple crewed moles

question i hate math, i dont get cargo in this game, is there a simple way to know if a mission is to transport 96 scu and it says they wont be more than 8 scu, if ill be able to fit it in my ship? is there a site to input to see calculations if itll fit in my cargo hold?

im referencing the image of the freelancer max where it shows the cargo size, but that doesnt help me understand if i can fit the above example of 8 scu boxes 96 sscu worth

earnest halo
#

Also, huge question, i can enter a mining mode while the pilot, but I haven't figured out how to actually mine from the pilot seat (in the mole)
Is it actually possible atm or is that mining mode from pilot seat just a tease?

spare cloud
#

You can't

#

Mining mode from pilot seat is just to scan rocks

#

See their properties and if you can mine them, without needing to go down the mining seat

earnest halo
#

Ah okay, if I'm running mole I usually have someone with me so that's kinda useless for that I guess, when I'm solo I get in the prospector

Can anyone DM me with info on the best Pyro spot for Tin? Thanks!!

# ornate halo

There isn't a point in having two identical mining head and modules if you're running solo/duo

earnest halo
#

I might not know quite what I'm doing yet but I've read every composition location chart available for Tin

#

My buddies all insisted we stand in front of kiosks for hours and I got so instantly bored that I bought a mole and a prospector

#

I got to Magnus okay but got into a pushing match with a player in those lines so I'm not going back lol. I've also been mining but not in Pyro yet.

How to get the most out of hauling?

# obsidian elm bump

Do the math dude, 96/8 ain't hard, and your phone/computer can do it for you.
Then you just watch how many times it fits on the grid

flint forge
#

they should split out buying and selling in to different windows, this event makes it hard to sell anything on the stations that sell the copper/corodium because people just push you off the screens because they want to use it, or walk in front so you cant click anything.

pearl juniper
#

The only PVP in this event is happening at the commodity terminals 😂

flint forge
#

yeah, i hear people earning Millions, i dont even dare to take any of the missions, because if you have to buy it somewhere then it will just be sold out anyway

timid oyster
#

whats the best scraper module for the vulture?

flint forge
#

i think these prio jobs should be limited per person

orchid void
#

I do the medium ones, 64SCUs of each isn't impossible to get

#

and 6mil is still a very good gain if you're solo'ing those

orchid void
flint forge
#

i looked at the 26 SCU, then i bought something else to drop off to that spot thinking i could buy 13 Corr and move on, but selling my stuff was already a pain because of 1 person that kept pushing me around and stepping in front of the console just to be rude

#

while he already skipped in front of me

#

i have a location with some copper and Corr bought, but i cannot get it out because the freight elevators there dont work

#

so no, the event is not worth it with all the bullshit and bugs around it

spare cloud
steady lily
#

how to make te most out of hauling?

spare cloud
#

Money ? Stack multiple small contracts

steady lily
flint forge
#

that depends on your rep rank and ship

spare cloud
#

Like multiple (extra) small Seraphim <-> Tressler, or Everus <-> Hur-L1

knotty dove
#

i only do hauling missions to get starting capital for trading

spare cloud
#

This is, if you're maximizing money at low rep.

At higher rep, Hull-C's good

#

And the rest I'm not sure what's best, still have to reach high rep myself

tall karma
#

And honestly the max scu limit is the only reason people can actually get these commodities from stations

knotty dove
pearl juniper
#

and yes, the money is crazy. I had 12m and my biggest ship was a cutty black when the event started. Now I have like 80m and a C2

#

but I did most of that on Saturday before it really got crazy

flint forge
# pearl juniper stockpile it first, then take the mission

cant stockpile it anyway because people keep pushing, and i'm not the kind of person that starts pushing other people
all i want is another 10m for a bigger ship, so i just looked at them, then flew with some cargo there i could sell there, and even selling my stuff was made hard by another player

pearl juniper
knotty dove

#

crazy. I have run into 0 of that on the servers I have been on. Long lines at the terminals, and stuff out of stock, but no issues in space.

orchid void
#

tbf main problem I've found is to buy ice

#

only a few SCUs each 15mins gets reloaded

pearl juniper
#

I also think they may have lowered the refresh rate with the hotfix. It seems slower than it was over the weekend.

flint forge
#

events should just be a limited amount, so you can only take the basic 10 times, only take the medium 10 times etc.

orchid void
#

for ice for me at port tressler it's always been like 10/15

#

pretty big difference

quiet bridge
#

random question but I thought it might be relevant here, what do you guys see as the role/need for the starfarer in the future? What changes create the necessity for it?

#

flying gas station is definitely an interesting gameplay loop to me but right now there's no reason for anyone in pyro not to just blow it up, and even less reason to use it even for cheaper fuel prices

vestal ravine
#

On the Die event if we send more RMC down for the order is that okay?

limpid sluice

but also getting blown up with 200k worth of quantum fuel would really really suck lol

Yeah, all those are possible, but as I said, they'd need to stop babying the player base. But I guess, to quote a friend "Game's not there yet"

Are parapets the best shield option for a C2 currenùtly?

fix did not unstuck the elevators at the mining site, so no point in going there

tall karma
#

You have to deliver ice to a pyro station anyway

orchid void
#

a lot of pirates there?

#

Or campers outside the station?

royal hamlet
#

@orchid void I would avoid traveling direct from one busy station to another. That's where you'll risk pirates intercepting you.

At stations you should hopefully see in advance if it's busy and then calculate if you want to risk it or not.

#

For example, in Stanton the route from Magnus Station to the Pyro Gateway apparently is full of pirates pulling people out of QT then stealing their stuff.

flint forge
#

pyro -> Hurston, just got pulled out in that one

royal hamlet
#

Were you traveling to Seraphim?

#

I've been choosing a different route each time. 7 different kinds of smoke.

While it's very annoying that's happeing, it does make sense for this type of game. Nice to see people are using the proper ships to pull people out of QT but I wish they would against a Polaris and learn a lesson lol

flint forge
#

lol says right there i was going to hurston the plannet

royal hamlet
#

Yes, I thought you were generalizing.

flint forge
#

nope, they are on the way from pyro gateway to hurston, 5 ships

#

we need a radio station for haulers to sent out coordinates where pirates are haha

royal hamlet
#

Problem is, who can you trust?

flint forge
#

sadly no one, thats why i make 3 jumps with longer distances

royal hamlet
#

Which ship do you use to haul larger amounts of cargo?

flint forge
#

i just use my zeus CL

#

i have no other haulers since every time i tried to add to the event i got bullied at the consoles

royal hamlet
#

Now it should be relatively quiet.

flint forge
#

sadly everything is already sold out, and i'm not willing to wait at a terminal for 60 min

where do i find people to salvage on my reclaimer with is there a discord or something?

if your doing the cargo missions in a c2

True but even so spending an extra 270+k for minimal gains still doesn't seem worth it to me. But that's just me

which turret slot is which (for the mole) does it go from left to right? center, left, then right?

for like, slot 1 is center or maybe left?

yeah it was sry

saves me traveling to ruin to get blown up by some neckbeard

i found accepting and abandoning ones at other stations to speed it up worked

i do all mine at ruin beacuse you can just buy the ice there

quiet atlas

ahhh ok i just like mining lol

of course, enjoy it

I made my easy cash and now I will start mining too because I like it

Anyone can even get in their Hull C ? like i tried to do a run, the ship disappeared, i went back on another server to retrieve it, got a black screen and now im stuck lol

so no one is sure which mining head is which slot ?

im gonna assume nose is turret 1 right?

does putting two surges on one mining head do anything?

what laser combination is best for solo mining in mole with what modules and can i tsack riger c3 again ?

For science (and I got fed up) I blew up my SL MAX to see if I can pull the cargo off the grid. No go. So no one else try it lol.

#

Where can ice be mined? I know tin is from pyro ground

fringe coral
earnest halo
#

so this is basically just impossible right?

#

without someone else doing like a 1% tap to increase that optimal zone

fringe coral
#

its easy

#

when u have gadget

#

sabir

earnest halo
#

does that one increase the optimal window too?

fringe coral
#

let me show u the stats of sabir

#

u get -resistance

#

and windows size

fringe coral
#

ore ur laser will have damage fall off

earnest halo
#

with those you have to get out of the ship and walk up to it with the gadget right?

fringe coral
#

yes

#

but fornow get closer to the damn rock

earnest halo

lol yeah, its hard cuz im solo running a mole for the first time

i can come help if u want

ive got a crew hopping on in an hour, i appreciate the offer tho, ill add you in game

dm me

the very moment i get it to green its already in red

Have you tried activating them? Alt -1, alt-2, etc

The active modules will be offline until you turn them on, that's how they work. Passive modules are always on
