Wow, Ita is the best for quant, so nice

#

Nothing is worse than find 1 scu of quant when you've got empty bags and you've just starting hunting...its almost not worth getting knowing you might have to cut out early!

#

To correct some info I happened to see: Both the Vulture and the Reclaimer use Baler S2 salvage heads. They take S1 salvage modules, like Cinch, Abrade, Trawler, and ReadyGrip Tractor. But the salvage heads and the modules they can use are the same. The only difference is, with a Vulture you can control 2 heads at the same time, while you need 2 people to do that with a Reclaimer. And the Reclaimer is in need of a major rework.

#

The internal buffer is also a lot larger, so you don't have to stop and empty the buffer out as much. (Not to mention, you can print out larger boxes.)

#

Has there been any mention from CIG about timelines or where the Reclaimer stands in rework process?

remote willow
#

With the starfarer being completely bugged and unable to salvage and the caterpillar being hit or miss in that regard. I don't think it's really worth it to run the reclaimer for missions right now.
Given that how only NPC wrecks give you the full amount of RMC return I would just run a vulture

#

Hell, it's probably better to just spread a team of vultures to tackle big ships, easier to manage and easier to unload. At least until the reclaimer gets a gold pass update

#

I tried it solo myself (as well) but felt so slow compared to the Vulture, I'd rather pilot a alt with a hauler to eliminate return trips until I'm done for the day.

Currently using my Idris for this

i got the prowler utility and i kinda like it. the convenience of the tractor beam controlled by the pilot is very nice.

i wonder what i could use it for. mybe salvaging weapons off ships in space or such

eh. the asgards nice but not my cup of tea

i mainly got the prowler to see if there might be some use for it. if i dont find anything. ill melt it.

Hm. Yeah i suppose
I could really mess with someone trying to sell stuff. Just hover overhead and use the tractor to yoink some.

astral axle
#

Wonder. Can i put bombs on the cargo grid?

#

Eh nvm
Hm
I have an idea how tje prowler utility could be improved.
It could carry more than 32 SCU, but not internally.

floral lichen
#

As-is via something hacky? or like a redesign

astral axle
#

Redesign. Like you can either have 32 scu but with full stealth or more cargo. Like 64 scu, but you cant close the cargo bay, so it compromises stealth.

#

Because the way the cargo rack works on.the prowler U, is it retracts when closed.
So instead of retracting and closing it could just retract, letting some cargo just sorta hang out the ship.
If that makes sense

#

Dunno if that could work. But it would make the price feel a lil more justified

I'm trying to pop off the drake golem pods, then force a claim on the ship to get some new pods, but if you store the pods it seems that you lose them.

# remote willow Shame you have to stop duping and buy new bags like the rest of us plebians

This sounds passive aggressive for no reason. Nothing I'm trying to do is anything you couldn't.

And for the record it works. Call up the golem, open ports, move it to the side, make a claim and expedite for 1k, and do it again and again until you have as many crates as you wish. Strip the crates from the old ships and load them up on your boat of choice, taking the last called golem with you.

Beats spending 25k per bag.

remote willow
#

It was sarcasm, and for the record its exploiting. Not thats anything to really be upset or fuss over about. But don't pretend like its legit gameplay. If the item you're attempting to duplicate via insurance claims disappears, thats working as intended.

spice shell
#

If it disappeared, then it wouldn't be an option and it would be obvious the devs did not want this to work. Yet here we are in 4.2 and it can be done.

remote willow
#

Some impressive mental gymnastics, just because the devs tolerate certain exploits doesnt mean its intended gameplay. Otherwise why would they bother selling the bags?

#

Enjoy it while it lasts I suppose

lofty drift
#

has anyone been able to do salvage in pyro?

#

theres too many fighter npcs that spawn in

remote willow
#

In my personal experience getting some decent stealth gear to drop your detection range to roughly 12 km helps out a bit. Not perfect but helps some of the NPCs that come around from noticing me

#

Best bet is to getting good with one of the factions and level up their salvaging missions or have a PVE killing ship nearby to clear out the Npc's and come back in a salvager

olive gull
remote willow
#

Salvage out of a Polaris would be ideal, (or an Idris).

PDC's watch your back, just have to keep an eye out for players looking to sneak aboard and steal it

Quick tip: you can fit 10 scu on the avenger titan if you try, this is rly useful for certain hauling missions that need 9 scu when you start the game

any1 got a screenshot of the optimal loadout for solo mining in a mole? with a focus on Quant mining.

spare cloud

The optimal idk, but I like this

what rank in cargo do i need to get to before i get Hull c sized missions ?

warm totem
#

Looking at the new numbers for helmets and armor sets, I noticed that ADP, Bahlor, and Berserker helmets & armor have what appear to be better numbers for radiated environments - does anyone know how it affects gameplay and are they better to wear into the new zones? Do those numbers mean much? For example a normal helmet is like 145 and a berserker is 251 or something - there are two numbers related to radiation - what do you guys think in regards to these? Thanks in advance!

#

I am asking in relation to performing mining and of course getting out of the ship if need be or being exposed in a mole - so yes your armor could be important!

spare cloud
#

Mining you'd care more about storage space to store mining gadgets and modules than radiation protection. There isn't really any radiation issue where you go to mine

warm totem
#

I thought there were minables in the radiated places as well

#

I also consider myself a loot goblin as an industrial profession, lol

mild pumice
#

anyone know if the C1 has the same scanning range for mineables as the Zues CL?

spare cloud
#

That's C1, which is identical to the CL

mild pumice

thanks! much appreciated 🫔

I'm going to use my Wikelo C1 instead of the CL for Pyro

#

glad to see it's the same

all prepped and on my way šŸ™‚

I am told by other players that the numbers for certain armor etc in regards to radiation are typos in the inventory description just FYI

im keepin the prowler. once the railen comes out ill just melt it and use the money to buy it

and im pretty sure i can melt some of my junk. like paints i dont need anymore and get a C1 for heavier cargo stuff

olive gull
astral axle
#

hm. 96 scu of cargo does sound nice

#

or how much can it carry?

olive gull
#

192 scu the RAFT can carry.

astral axle
#

192? zamn nice

#

i also got that pirate aggressor pack available for me to buy. which does have a caterpillar

olive gull
#

well the C1 can carry up to 114 scu if you use the non grid spaces..

astral axle
#

ah ok

#

also i have been thinkingg abt picking up mining. friends of mine recommended the golem to me

olive gull
#

Golem is great for Planetary Quantanium mining

#

and Quantanium is in high demand nowadays... up to 100k per scu...

astral axle
#

huh

olive gull
#

you... dont know?

#

Wikelo requires large quantities of Quantanium in exchange for a Polaris
therefore, players are desperate for Quantanium
instead of wasting selling to stores, you sell it at #market-street
check it out

astral axle
#

Listen. im mainly a combat pilot looking to diversify towards industrial stuff.

fighting all the time gets a bit boring so im looking for other stuff i might like

#

i mean look at my fleet. its mostly fighters XD

crude thunder
#

I would like to recommend Salvaging/Scavenging as a good option for you.... RMC pays well but also you get the option to pull components and weapons from other dead craft to support your angry fighter squadron šŸ™‚

#

Golem is a great little ship for getting your toes wet in mining too, I have a Golem LTI I pledged and I have a Vulture I bought with aUEC, and just got a Fortune I got from Wikelo. I will say I need to use the Golem more but I use the Vulture an obscene amount of time while online. I'm raiding PAFs, salvaging ships, running small hauls. Plus there should be a mini starter salvager coming around the corner soon. I think an RSI variant.

# astral axle what r they for?

Focus gives a larger green zone. Rieger gives more power.
Don't use erkul like they do for mining loadouts, it's very limited.
Use regolith.rocks instead to make loadouts and everything else mining related. Excellent website

olive gull
# astral axle what r they for?

Rieger C3 will increase your laser Power allowing you to break bigger rocks, the other is to compensate for some side effects of the Rieger

#

u can change the Focus for something else if you dont mind having a super tiny green zone

you cant sell the boxes cuz they are mark as stolen and even if you could they are only a couple coins worth

4.2, we can now load our RMC from Vulture directly to the Freight elevator. You still have to run to the TDD place to get paid. Before, if you had 17 crates, only the 12 that fit on the spots got bought. Then you have to go back, load more, and so on. Now you can load all the crates into the elevator and get paid.

Once you get past member rank it's slow going tbh. The fastest way is just to be more efficient loading. I've just been doing missions I enjoy and it's built up over time.

My setup that I enjoy is to have my connie taurus, with a nursa a 2scu storage box and an atlas geo - I own a ROC but have found the geo to be more fun and more efficient. I say more efficient because you can always just jump around or back into the ship if you landed it awkwardly and it moved to where you cant get a ROC back in easily without having to fiddle around - its just easier to get around in - the downside is lower space but it seems like the fact that you can easily get back offload and get right back out there so much faster makes it not much of a concern really. I like this particular setup as you can do a variety of things in it. I also have found that if I get shot down and the connie is dead the nursa often survives so leave it onboard. If someone comes along and takes your connie out you can still usually get to the nursa and drive away in it - it's also very nice for bunkers with its onboard storage you can bring extra supplies that are very likely needed if by chance you do need to respawn in it. Ammo, drinks, medpens, etc.

What’s the best setup for a 2-3 person mining operation? Our goal would be to farm ore for the Polaris - perhaps using a larger ship to transport smaller mining ships and have storage

Whats the best salvage arm head for the Vulture?
Abrades, right?

Does Quantum explode if the bag is detached? And is there a way to identify which bags have Quantum in it?

hoary hinge
#

All your bags fill up roughly equally; I'm not 100% certain but it appears that they fill up about 0.25SCU at a time then move to the next bag.

So if you are pulling in like 2SCU of Quant, it'll be in all of your ship's bags.

You could try detaching a bag and scanning it to see what it contains.

And even if you've stored the bags by tractoring them off at a station and sending the bags down the cargovator, I believe they will still explode, destroying the bag, if you don't put in the refinery order in time

# ember star I’ve never heard that before, what does getting purpled mean?

"getting purpled" is something that happens to ships or vehicles right before they get cleaned up and deleted by the server. Its supposed to only happen to ship that have been left abandoned for awhile, but it happens somewhat often to player ships that are still in use as well. It typically happens when your ship gets stuck on something or stops moving suddenly

#

examples would include your ship spawning stuck in the floor of your hangar, a ground vehicle getting flipped upside down by a rock or something and not being flipped over again quickly enough, stuff like that

#

a purple outline appears around your ship, and then it gets deleted a few seconds later

but what makes it hilarious

#

"oh no my ship got purpled" is just a funny thing to say outside of the context of SC

Hey has anyone noticed if you get more XP from multiple stop cargo missions ? Or if it's the same as one drop

mild pumice
#

It's something like 1000xp for member, 2000xp for experienced, 4000xp for senior and 6000xp for master. Technically you're better off stacking a couple of experienced local or 4-6 member missions

stacking seems bugged for me, or i'm doing it wrong, always have to press the submit button as it doesn't track the delivered goods and then the reward is worng

# rigid crescent makes sense as thats exactly what i did, there are 5 missions for waste hur l1-5...

those missions are all bugged any where you have to pickup from multiple places and deliver to one place, it only records cargo for the top one in the list, the rest don't count, it doesn't even matter if you send it down in part.

This occurs in both Pyro and Stanton so just avoid those, direct A-B are fine and also missions where you pickup from one place and deliver to multiple locations work.

Have tried to get this confirmed on IC but it doesn't get the upvotes sadly.

I am pretty sure those missions have worked fine for me, but I haven't run them in the current update yet so I can't be sure

Have you tried to do a Junior mission to see if it moves your rep?
Rookie missions give a very tiny amount of rep. Like 1/10th the rep a Junior mission gives.

Rookie missions give tiny rep, it's only enough to get you out of that rank tbh, not to progress through junior at any pace. I think it's 50xp vs 500xp for a jnr.

# astral axle Or should i just stick to the vulture?

A pair would be needed to run it effectively. But even then you're risking getting boarded killed and all the cargo stolen for all that effort. So too slow and the reward does not justify the risk

If you had a crew of three to four I think that's probably the best for maximizing profit per hour, (as well as permanent pilot to constantly keep a lookout for threats) but then you have to split it 4 ways Not to mention the things of nightmare to unload as it hasn't been updated since the freight elevator rework.

If you can get two people I would just have one in a vulture another in a hauler or another vulture / fortune

#

Also keep in mind with a reclaimer now you have to have an extra vigilant eye for a prowler sneaking up and boarding you before you even realize it

remote willow

Also has anybody tested the rumors about a shadow buff to salvaging?
It looks like all scrapers got modified in very very positive directions.

Very, especially around Crusader and Yela where most of those salvaging missions will take you .

I have heard that they've spread them out more over the system. But most of the pirates I know are always on the lookout for a sweet payday with a reclaimer.

For solo mining what do you recommend? Golem or Prospector with Helix and modules to improve window size?

remote willow
#

I hate that prospector ladder with a passion, so whenever possible I prefer the golem.

That said you do get more customized options with the prospector as far as it's laser goes..

There is something to be said also about the golems utility and having internal storage to carry extra active and passive modules not to mention gadgets you can switch out to suit your needs.

That and you do a lot less stacking and loading with the golem

#

It's a deep deep learning curve to figure out what's the best setup. I'm still learning and what I've learned is you're pretty much gotta tailor your ship to match what's your after and how you like to play.

Some people like active , some people like passive

At the end of the day it's literally whatever floats your boat

for a novice player flatout grinding prob just stacking the hauling missions with a Hull A, for a skilled player who puts time and effort into the best mining locations, finding the right materials, best refining methods and selling high (particually quant to players) will earn more, but it takes a lot more effort. And you still need a hauling ship to move the stuff.

The golem is more an entry to mining tho so entry to mining vs entry to cargo is prob still more stacked on the hauling side

try the different methods to navigate, like from the nearest beacon - often that is the "easiest" - once you learn how to use the site it is a game changer for sure - keep your eyes open for two caves near each other then you can select the first cave as your starting point in the advanced tab - saving you a lot of time and effort cave jumping. You can also server hop once onsite for another go at the same cave, helpful when first learning caves.

How are you removing the gems from the pod? If you are putting the whole pod into a larger container and then pulling the gems out from there, it bugs the pod storage amount to no longer recognize when contents have been removed. If you hold the pod container or set it on the ground, open it, and transfer the gems to your backpack first, the pod will not become bugged. This issue also happens to the ROC ore pod.. something about nesting containers causes them to bug out.

last I heard they're using the ironclad design components to pre-fab the Kraken and build a catalog of parts for large Drake ships. So I suspect they're going slower on the Ironclads to go much faster on more Drake ships later

hollow pewter
#

Really want me one of those Ironclads! What Drake ships are they cooking up?

crude thunder
#

earliest... maybe IAE if all the starts align but might be next year. I have a CCU chain for Ironclad I'm working on too

#

Ironclad, Ironclad Assault, Kraken, Kraken Privateer? , and I think one of those ship silhouettes might be Drake as well. Has wings just like the Corsair.

Def buying in-game. I live in Brazil, so every dollar costs me almost 7 of my money.

#

Not looking to spend like 5 grand on a virtual ship

crude thunder
#

understandable

hollow pewter
#

Just have to wait I guess.

#

Its all good. M2 is my main goal rn

jagged raft
#

The hull C is really cool when it works, but with the chance of losing a ship every patch it is really really not worth it (I own mine but I got it back when it was $200)

hollow pewter
#

And I’m in love with the idea of the Ares Ion, though I’ve never tested it out before. So maybe Ion and later on the M2. I’m really happy to have gotten a free connie taurus with the new patch, so that’s been my daily driver. Fits all my mining stuff.

jagged raft
#

The ion is fun!! But it is fairly hard to solo most content with it because it is meant for bigger ships, and is completely outmanoeuvred by smaller fighters

#

Definitely worth the in game price

hollow pewter
#

I flew the Scorpius during Invictus and loved that! Completely obliterated all bounties I did. I’m still on low bounties though, so who knows.

#

It's my opinion, at minimum heavy fighters are meant to travel in pairs.

I was looking at the Hull C to do some of the Experienced level contracts but the feedback about it so far is ...interesting to say the least

tall karma
#

Just to be clear, the Hull C at experienced+ is one of the fastest income generators per hour in game. The only downside is its a bit boring.

#

I got one a few days ago been doing missions fine it has its problems at times kinda like asops elevators hangers do

#

See a bunch of other hull cs out there too

Free floating commodities for missions is a common occurrence outside stations these days

Anyone else really looking forward to the resource event in 4.2.1?

sullen sentinel
#

Yes. The requirement for visiting ground outposts for some of it means my prowler utility will get some good use. Yoink!

I got my raft that I’m going to park right in front of the elevator to load stuff.
Really hoping to get the raft paint reward

#

Nah, having an idris and doing the 200k hammerhead combat gauntlet mission is the fastest.

#

Easily making 4-6mil an hour that way.

sullen sentinel
#

And it will only cost you the low low price of 1900 USD to get in on it!

tall karma
#

Though, you can just rent it from players who don't play the game but buy ships for 1mil / day.

low cipher
#

wheres a good place to sell gems in pyro?

tall karma
#

If your goal is money / favor farming its actually pretty reasonable to find a rental idris.

My biggest problem is if you find a railgun version abandoned with no torps, then you cant restock it reasonably.

#

Is there no way to sell Caranite besides directly selling to other players?

jagged raft
#

I don't believe so. You can turn them in as a part of the rayari research missions

#

Which brings their value down by quite a bit

#

Better to just sell them, or use them for your own Wikelo ship

cerulean lichen
#

Well I’ll just hold on to them. I can’t do OLP solo so trying to figure out what to do with the bit I have.

#

Be nice if Wileko had things to trade that weren’t only found in PvP hotspots

jagged raft
#

That is the beauty of player trading. You can grind PVE or industry stuff for other parts of it and trade other players for their time in the PVP zones.

I do both, but I know plenty who avoid PVP like the plague

#

And sadly watch as the favors disappear inexplicably from your inventory hangar, or a box of them warps behind a wall. Or that ship you got for 20 favors disappears with the patch 🫠

cerulean lichen
#

I got 3 favors from turning in script. Going to take me awhile to get a Wileko ship

crude thunder
#

Not too long, you can run those Gauntlet missions on repeat. Easier if you have a buddy or org with a Polaris or Idris. 10 favors for the base ships (keep in mind they are weighted RNG, and higher chances of getting a certain one at a certain station).

cerulean lichen
#

Ok. I’ll save my favors and just farm script. Maybe I’ll use the caranite for some of the cool armor

#

I just really want this new upcoming event to succeed so I can actually do content I like instead of playing space tarkov

#

I just worry about this game becoming space rust.

#

All random stuff is going away with Wikelo

#

SOONā„¢

#

Update: No More Random Rewards
All collector rewards will become deterministic, meaning you'll know what you are going to get when accepting a mission. All existing Wikelo contracts will be updated to reflect this change.

cerulean lichen
#

That will be nice. So now I just need to get enough favorsšŸ˜…

cerulean lichen
#

So what are the odds that the new event will just be a PvP nightmare? Or do you think everything will be spaced out enough to not be a problem?

north oyster
#

Very good read on some nice changes, not all "right now" but soonā„¢

#

the random though will be changed now

We'll have to see what the return of security ships is like too, whether you can camp stations or not

Hopefully the cargo elevators are in an armistice zone

The delivery points are all LEO stations, far as Ive gathered. Not sure about pick ups

sigh its a good run but the commodities going back to Covalex Depot are only half accepted but instead of paying half you get paid 1/3rd and stuck with contracted cargo

any way to get containers stuck in elevator saying please discard, i have 64 bioplastic i need to get out in 8scu boxes

tried multiple servers and im trying to get things out

latent drift

So when I popped into the TDD on NB last night, I learned that I have a whole bunch of ā€œstolenā€ cargo in my local inventory. Stims in this case. I’m assuming it’s left over from a cargo mission that went wrong at some point as I’ve never stolen cargo… But what do I do with it?? I don’t really want to fly it to Grim Hex.

Hey is there a bug that stop your cargo from showing at the TDD i have my cargo stored in my storage but its not showing up im at orsion and trading Gold

astral pelican
#

sometimes it is in a diffrenet spot try clicking on all the storage spots on the TDD

yea i look under my name and under Orison and then general storage and nothing comes up

astral pelican
#

what about your ship

olive gull
#

this is how you fit 39 scus on a Vulture

feral crane
#

Do yall prefer hauling contracts or just regular hauling? I like contracts cuz it eliminates the risk and it’s quicker to load sometimes, and it’s only a pay issue until you gain enough rep

#

Also can someone send me a cross section of the Starlancer MAX cuz I’m getting that next, upgrading from Taurus

vapid dagger
#

also i can lend you my max

olive gull
feral crane
vapid dagger
#

no

feral crane
#

Cuz I use a Taurus and never get anything past 120

#

Oh then what’s the point of upsizing

vapid dagger
#

ur ships supposed to scale kinda with the quest they just get bigger the higher rep you are

#

whats ur rep

feral crane
#

Just got to member

#

For covalent

#

Covalex

vapid dagger
#

should be getting some bigger ones

#

some tho

#

most of them will be small

#

once you hit experienced then youll get in the hundreds and even thousands all the time

My highest paying mission was 101k for a 87 scu haul from Magnus gateway to Everus Harbor

broken hull c

feral crane
#

Is hull c buyable in game or not yet

#

Also how does using that thing even work

vapid dagger
#

i couldnt tell you i cant get it to work but some can

#

im just not a chosen one

feral crane
#

Does it depend on Chris’s mood at the time ur using it?

vapid dagger
#

i think it really just depends on being the literal chosne few

#

like 30 people can use it

feral crane
#

Oooooh it’s 16 mil at new deal….

vapid dagger
#

i can lend mine

feral crane
#

Do I risk it for the Hull C or do I take the stepping stone to Starlancer MAX

vapid dagger
#

but wont get much use until experienced and again if it works for you i shall hold you in my heart with anger

#

hull c took all my money and i didnt know what to do and i went into negative rep with covalex

feral crane
#

Damn šŸ˜­šŸ™

#

I mean yeah I wouldn’t even need to use it until I hit experienced

vapid dagger
#

add me on discord ill be awaiting ur fated day

feral crane
#

But the highest paying jobs give the highest rep?

#

Cuz I wanna progress in hauling

#

And Hull C is pretty cool ngl

#

I miss the days of instant loading 🫩

#

Hauling takes so long now but it’s fair cuz it was absolutely busyed

help hull c is telling me cargo transfer complete?

[Hauling Mission Changes, coming to a future 4.2.1 patch - KoakuCIG]

Your initial Intro mission will be in the standard hauling Expander, after you complete this, that tab will vanish!

Afterwards, missions will be split into:

  • Bulk Grade
  • Supply Grade
  • Small Grade
#

we shall rejoice

Oh thank Chris Roberts for that change!

Yes! I wanna fill my raft will boxes. This will make finding those large hauling missions much easier

anyone know what to do when the hull c wont unload, the bar just wont progrss, I tried waiting out the time, jumped away came back, moved boxes nothing i try unloads

olive gull

we should have a help channel just for the MANY Hull C bugs and glitches

sorry if its a common thing asked here, I just got it and was very excited to try it and it just isnt letting me do anything with it feels like a waste of time for all the cargo hauling i did to get enough money for it cattired

i enjoy cargo I just hate loading and unloading so when I learned you didnt need to do either for the hull c i guneed for it

How annoying is soloing a reclaimer compared to soloing a Mole? Has anyone done both and could give their 2 cents on the day to day life?

lone mountain
#

id imagine unloading it from the hopper and then from the cargobay inside out would be annoying

#

cause it was designed with no freight elevator use in mind

lone mountain
#

the internal storage

#

the machines that u use to make it into actual boxes

#

its hopper

slate prism

oh ok TIL

lone mountain

yeah

well I have no idea what the reclaimer cargobay looks like but thanks for the info

its ass

are any reworks expected soon ?

#

or maybe new middle man ship between vulture and reclaimer

vestal ravine
# slate prism are any reworks expected soon ?

I use this ship all the time solo and the rear drop in chute works fine if you learn the little tricks about using it. I have even sold crates via the TDD with the ship stored no unloading. After Monday we can do a joint session if you want.

lone mountain
#

wait i forgot about the chute

#

that might fix it honestly

#

and middle man between vulture and reclaimer, for that i have no idea, cig hasnt said anything about it

#

knowing them give it 3 years or next update middle class ships for mining and salvage

vestal ravine
#

Minus 6 cst....

slate prism
#

thats in the US right

so 4:19 eastern means 3:19 central

# lone mountain wait i forgot about the chute

honestly the chute is so nice, just yoink it out the printer/hopper turn 90 upwards and force it between the chute exterior door and the little elevator kekw pops out most of the time and then any that get stuck you just close the chute and open it back up

can u sell rmc at seraphim?

Are there Cargo missions inside of Pyro systems ? and if there is how much does they pay

lone mountain

i read the wrong page

šŸ’€

short tapir

and is it hull c sized

lone mountain
#

stanton is the only hull c sized missions currently

#

i think terra will have hull c missions and bigger for the bigger hull series

#

cause of misc factories

coarse ember
# lone mountain can u sell rmc at seraphim?

idk about seraphim but damn near any floating metal object in pyro takes rmc sippy theres also grim hex for stanton but idk if theres still the little ui bug where you have to click a corner of the commodity to get the sell option

lone mountain
#

u cant

#

i read the wrong page

#

seraphim is where u sell

#

which is fine, cause ill offload at seraphim and then go bqack out, then get in my cutlass and take it to seraphim
