- Star Citizen 3.23 is LIVE and with it many, MANY changes to gameplay and what we are used to. Join me as I embark out to gain back all my lost money and take a hard dive into the world of mining. I will be heading out Solo in my Prospector to the varies areas around Stanton to see what treasures I can find.
Prospector mining is one of the oldest and noblest of Star Citizen careers. Today we will take a trip out and do a few mining runs to show you just how good it is in 3.23.

Ive been trying to tell people that Prospector mining with the 48scu bags is the way to go. it's SO relaxing. Also, i feel the need to go play Mass Effect now.
It's pretty easy and you can fly and mine so it all feels so seamless.
The mass effect music is a vibe. The. OST really nailed the space exploration vibe with that
Get to work 😂
Love the music….ps, every time I go into character creator in SC that also reminds me of Mass Effect
Scanning speed is absolute torture currently. This alone doubles the time on a rock. I've found the mole a lot more sensitive since .23. Oh and I really didnt appreciate the rearranging of the lasers on the Mole either. Yes, the Mole needs some love - but it'd also be really nice to see something like an XL Prospector where you just had much more capacity as standard and a pilot controlled laser. The only benefit for me with the Mole is 96 scu, everything else is irritating. Given the jump from the Mole to the Arrastra, the Mole needs some uplift and the 48 scu capacity needs to be something you can specify as an extra on a Prospector - although giving the Prospector 48 SCU and the Mole 128 scu would be a start.
I think there are a lot of balancing things they need to go through. Like the mole 100% needs a larger capacity, size 2 lasers and 96 SCU just doesn't feel like enough
Also, the prospector should take size 2 turrets, they are literally the exact same physical size, just different labels. Plus a prospector with a size 2 laser is exactly over powered
The arrastra is gonna add alot of balancing problems. For starters, it has size 3 lasers. Meaning initial fracture is a rock pushing 30k+ which means it'll need further fracturing. But then the size 3 laser is WAY over powered for that. So a change to how extraction power functions needs to happen as well
Don't get me started on scanning speed. I feel like that should be like 1-2 seconds
@@epic_grayfox Perhaps it would be reasonable to work on the half half half basis - Arrastra 512scu, Mole 256 scu, Prospector 128 scu? But even 48 scu is a fairly big joke. I actually run a size 1 laser in my Mole just for the nice small bits I come across that wont cope with a big laser now.
I think that would stagger pretty alright. If you run a hofstede II with a focus 3 it can do the little rocks, you can go a kittle further with 2 focus 3s if you'd like. Then it still retains usefulness for larger rocks and can do smaller rocks
@@epic_grayfox I pretty much run my Mole Solo, so I can run 3 separate lasers for any need 🙂
I added a helix to my prospector and I think it scans really fast compared to the default laser
That Aszu guy in the chat was just parroting all of the talking points from Avenger1's video about the "3.23 meta" (which he released before 3.23 even went live). Right down to the point about interdiction, and my reaction was exactly the same as yours.
In A1's video, they ambush an Anvil Hawk 4v1 with dampener, snare, and EMP, and just immediately kill it on sight. Then he acts like the guy was supposed to have a chance of escaping that??? lmao. If a person somehow slipped through that, they would be losing their minds about how broken it is, saying "that should be a guaranteed instant kill!!!" etc. If that's not a guaranteed kill, what is? Presumably most of the people using snares and stuff won't be trying to kill you on sight, they'll be looking to pirate you.
Can't argue with A1's more objective observations about stats or whatever, but when he starts getting into his opinions and predictions, I almost always disagree. He can't seem to look at the game as anything but a pure PVP deathmatch where everyone is meta-chasing, because that's the only part he cares about. I'm not saying MM is perfect and needs no adjustments, but A1 had his mind made up from the first moment he heard about it, and ever since then he's been trying to wield his community like a bludgeon to get it changed.
Thanks for sharing man. Yea, I am a overly objective person. Sometimes too objective lol.
On the SC note: it's meant to be a "realistic" type space simulator with a fair bit of immersion. With that in mind, a lot of the changes they are applying make sense. You should be able to fight a hammerhead with a C2, in contrast you also shouldn't be able to fight a hammerhead with a hurricane or scorpius.
Before it was fine because without that ability the hammerhead would be a juggernaut. With more capital ships down the pipeline soon the time has come that big ships feel tangy and difficult to fight. Especially with a manned crew. At the same time a coordinated squadron of mixed fighters should conversely be a difficult threat to deal with
Hard to justify the time to mine when a single vulture panel run nets 550k, oftentimes in less time. And you don’t have to wait to refine it. The 48scu ups refinery time to 40+ hours. Even with the mole bags the maximum load is 384k, and that’s with a max load of 100% t1 ores, which is impossible to obtain.
I can agree there, salvage is hard to compete with when it comes to just a raw profitability comparison. Mining will definitely need some tweaking to be useful. CIG did say in a Q/A that mining missions could be coming in 4.0. Plus once base building comes in I am sure different ores will be needed for construction and will make mining extremely useful.
To me SC isn't about min maxing though. It's about doing what you enjoy. Sometimes I feel like salvaging, other times I feel like mining. They BOTH will make decent credits either way
not true about the vulture.
A fair comparison for the term "run" would be per Vulture cargo (12scu), not assuming that you have friends, giant cargo ships or w/e. The whole point of the Prospector is that you can do all by yourself without leaving the seat.
There are mole contracts, just keep an eye. I see them all the time
helix with focus III
how do you select your menus and scroll without the mouse? do you have a controller setup?
Yeah at some point in the video he said he's using a controller
I do use controller. I use a Xbox Elite controller and I use reWASD which is a paid software that allows you to map keyboard/mouse commands to the controller.
Running helix1 reiger3 and a focus 3 ... Can crack up to 18k mass ... I feel like im doing 2 runs an hour and average around 150k to 200k an hour what am i doing wrong ? Trying to only go for top 5 on the list
Do you have mole bags on your prospector?
@@epic_grayfox yes I have mole bags
Are you able to put Mole bags on your Prospector, post Invictus?
Yes you are, I was running a 48 SCU prospector in the video. They even brought back the mole salvage mission too!
@@epic_grayfox is that how you get the larger bags? You can not just buy them can you?
You can currently move mole bags over to prospector. Read about how to unlock ports. Some shops sell the bags but there is currently no way to install them from the ship purchasing method.
@MikeNPeeGee the other guy is right. I have my own mole as a loaner for my arrastra. If you don't have a mole or don't know someone with a mole. The mole salvage mission. Is a easy way to get the bags if you have a way to salvage to unlock that mission
Night mining at Aberdeen - is this some kind of BDSM practice? Just to compare things - try day mining at Arial )))
Lol, I know what you mean. I like Ariel better, but i was experiencing a weirdly low framerate on the surface or Ariel and I'm not sure why. I have since returned to Ariel and it seems to be fixed.
I understand the thing about "getting ultra realistic"..... yeah, cool and everything, but if i want realistic, and stressful, and annoying and boring and extremely demoralizing..... I HAVE REAL LIFE BUD!!!...... why do i want to escape to an alternate reality to be as annoyed and stressed about work as i am in real life??.... the cool thing about this is that you can actually become a millionaire thanks to your efforts and hard work (you cannot do it in real life unless a miracle happened).... the cool thing about this is that you see amazing results that you may not be able to get in real life.... This is an escape from reality, And i think maaany people think the way i do. If it becomes another real life..... is not worth it. Cheers!.
I miss gimbled mining heads
what was your loadout for your prospector?
Typically I run a reiger C3 and a stampede on the helix to get consistent power
Why, the game will just kick you and vanish your cargo.
the mining is so boring slow and it is realy sad. Many times you have rocks you cant mine which have good stuff and if you can mine they have trash. Like realy you scan so many times and finaly you have one and it is always like 10% premium ore with 90% trash stuff and even with 48scu it is not realy money time effectiv.
