As i am swimming in credits after reclaimer trips i really want to master this as it is a lot more involved than salvaging. Next i need to find a video explaining the modules and when to use them
Got my mole last week and loving it, need to try asteriods as ive mainly been doing planet mining, i like the idea you had of a dedicated extraction laser, shame the current way extraction power works only effects speed, if it effected weight that would be cool. As for mining mods, not the biggeat fan of having to eva even with a crew, maybe with the new eva changes coming it wont be such a headache haha Keep up the great vids
Remember you dont have to use the elevator to EVA. The side turret doors work too if someone is in the turret and extended. Just make sure when you are getting back in to be a bit above the door and boost straight it, because the gravity will catch you outside the ship and pull you "down" into space.
Lancets offer the 2nd highest max power (behind the Helix) and give a nice boost to charge speed. They fall off because they lower the size of the optimal window to an extreme degree. I've recently been toying with laser combinations, but the Helix up with the Rieger's offer massive maximum power for breaks on rocks up to 30k mass. I really only use one of the Hofstede's for "everything else", the one with triple focus is good for the itty bitty rocks (like 5k and below) that need a finer touch as not to crack them too angry, and the triple Rieger Hofstede can break up to 15k pretty comfortably.
I have a mole but just feel the cargo is far to low or they need to sort out this some how like external bags you can swap out once filled. As it stands it's a very low return on effort for crew and not solo. I just hope the economy pass makes the end products worth a lot more.
I think they need to give us bigger bags I can put 4 mole bags on a prospector and mine quicker in that. Could put super ores in very large rocks that take all 3 lasers so you have to crew
Just got into solo mole mining yesterday and learned a lot from your vid thx!

A large mealworm. That name alone made me subscribe 🤣
Chill AF. Exactly why the mining lifestyle choose me too.
Great video, very similar to my solo Mole build. Keep it up!

Glad the Mole can take it. Blew the bags off my Prospector last night on a bad overcharge.
Subbed mate, good stuff !!
could you explain the mining laser choice? always heard lancets were the ideal but I don't see anyone on YT using them.

Is that only for min 2 Crew?
Я взрывал 35 тонн квантаниума 30+%. Helix+Surge+Sabir. Тяжело, но можно ))
Your loadout is not solo friendly bro
Keep in mind CIG has started to push for multicrew over smaller ships, solo mining wont be as effective as group mining anymore
