    Hehe... I was really shocked in what time u did 500 runs ;)

    GZ for the XV+'s ;)

    What average repair costs you would calculate?

    Rellay weird looks runs 0036 - 0038. It looks kinda impossible for me to hit such stuff in a row. You sure it was 3/3/2 hits out of 66?

    Your average hitrate is 17% btw. Lil low in my eyes. Maybe you cound force hitrate to 20-25%, that would be good for the first.

    Now go for a 4 digit! ;)

    He said no UG... On the other side, this result looks more weird for indoor mining as far as I can see lol

    Hi DistantSun and Cajhmere, I am a miner to new on ark from caly, I have only been on planet 2 weeks and have one piece of armour and 1 vase, but where do you sell your ore? and do you think the f105 works better when it is full TT?

    I usually run it with only a few ped in as it lasts quite well, but after I scored a XVI dianum ore on caly, I could afford a quad wing and a treasure hunt adventure.

    Had a good start but now I am on a dry spot, but I have ore piling up and nowhere to offload it? I have found a lot of treasure but the MU is so low I have been TTing it, so I am running low on ped (down to 80 ped runs at the moment)

    If I could find where to sell ore even at low MU I would be able to continue in the same way as you guys.

    Also I have only been playing since January, and am level 8 prospecting, what sort of level are you guys?

    Heidi

    Sorry for late reply.
    Stepped out of mining and switched planets to Cyrene.
    Will try to remember to check next time I log in
