Clone 410	Posted - 2004.08.20 07:53:00 - [1] Just how far into 0.0 space are there decent rocks? I'm a bit of a 0.0 n00b so I thought I'd go exploring while it was quiet, spent all evening and most of this morning flying through Providence and Curse and can't find a single roid better than Hedbergite anywhere! Is this the norm for 0.0 or is the south an exceptionally mineral-poor region?

Selim	Posted - 2004.08.20 08:05:00 - [5] I know for a fact that A2-V27 is an excellent mining spot. Even the stargates are surrounded by arkonor... check it out! pf-346 is pretty good, too.

Thanit	Posted - 2004.08.20 08:10:00 - [7] Edited by: Thanit on 20/08/2004 08:14:25 Curse itself is not mineral rich. It has one or two systems with high end stuff, but not much or many and mining there will be noticed. Try the cache, detorid, wicked creek regions if you're there. But it really differs per area. Some systems just 3 jumps from empire space have high end ores. Sometimes you have to travel 20 to get there. It all depends where exactly you're going. If I were you I'd try going into cache or wicked creek the long way. That should be doable, but dont expect to be able to use staitons near to your mining spot as those are all conquerable. edit: and ghosthunter, don't be a tard. Going into 0.0 is easy. It's mining, hauling and docking that's harder, but still very well possible in Curse or Stain. Curse and Stain are the ideal regions to be around in illegally. This because of the high number of NPC stations they have. It makes for easy docking and refining since they can never be camping all the stations. Other areas do not have many stations, and the risk of running into locals is much greater there.

Clone 410	Posted - 2004.08.20 08:33:00 - [9] Edited by: Clone 410 on 20/08/2004 08:34:15 OK Selim, thanks! I was thinking of hanging out around BKG a lot too, I hear it's always quiet there! Thanks Thanit, have to admit I was a bit disappointed at first - got a nice buzz entering 0.0 and was expecting fun, adventure and Really Wild Things (tm) but the reality was kinda quiet and empty I'll check out those regions and see what I can find. And Ghostbuster - if I was afraid of getting podded I wouldn't have entered 0.0 in the first place. Fun > implants

Thanit	Posted - 2004.08.20 09:03:00 - [17] Originally by: fairimear Do not enter stain to mine u will be directed to ur local clone station without many questions. Isn't that what they all say ? But I admit, Curse claimed space is better suited then Stain because of the regions lay-out. Stain is partly a string of systems, making it harder to avoid detection and a chase. One more tip: try and aquire instajump bookmark sets from someone that has them and is willing to sell them. It might be hard to find them but if you can find a working set of instas for the route from a nice quiet station system to a nice quiet mining spot you'll be much more safe and efficient.

Lol, nonsense (the CA or ATUK killing an illegal that is). Curse has like 20 systems with stations, add the GW area and you've got like 30 systems. Add instajumps to your portfolio and neither ATUK nor Curse will ever get you if you know what you're doing. Just avoid hlw, eo2 and the other more travelled systems if you can. Oh, and ATUK are pretty nice guys actually, they might leave you alone of you can get them on your good side, seeing as they don't actually claim Curse.

Alonza	Posted - 2004.08.20 12:22:00 - [45] High end ores are most often found in 'dead-end' or leading to a 'dead-end' system. They are unlikeyly to be closer than 10 jumps from a refinary or 5 jumps from a fitting station. They will be at least 15-20 jumps from empire. They will not be found on main routes of travel. Having said that, in Cache (e.g. B-T6BT) you will find Arknor 3 jumps from a refinary - hmmn some people just have it way to easy. But you'll have to capture their stations to make use of it. Study the map with this info in mind, its pretty easy to predict where the high ores will be.
