Go find some far off systems. There's a lot of them with belts full of ore.

You can also go day trip quick mine in wormholes. Makes mining more fun knowing at any second a tech 3 can decloak and kill you. **** mining in low sec/nullsec. That's too easy to just watch local. **** local channel. Wormholes are more fun.

Even better in systems with no stations. But unless you have a POS, which seems unlikely, you can skip those.

Those are getting harder to find.
I don't know if the spawn resets are borked or what. I'm in a 3 system, high sec pocket and the 2 with stations are sucked dry. All the Veld, Scordite and most of the Plag are gone and stay gone for several days.

the question is, why would you want to find a veld asteroid regardless of it's size?

TBH i've never been able to work out the eve map I mean the map seems to look like Jita is only about 15 jumps from the furthest part of 0.0 but then again the map is so cluttered with systems its hard to work out. so yeah I have no idea how close to anything I am unless I set that place as my destination.


You risk the ship by undocking in high sec as well.

People are losing faith in Jita. They would rather have 400 mill trit in an asset list than ISK in their wallet.

so you mine something more valuable, sell the non trit parts when you refine it, and buy trit.
you don't mine veldspar for trit.

Plus trit is not a value invariant asset, so it's not exactly a safehold where to put wealth into.

So as not to stray too far off topic, the belts seem to be having trouble getting their volumes back.

On the side topic, while Tritanium might not be a measure of wealth it is the core to all ship manufacturing, being higher in number than all other minerals combined. While some Ore offers up Tritanium on the side, no other ore provides enough Tritanium to turn the other minerals in to a ship. Chribba wasn't just making a slogan. It's all about the Veldspar.

- Having said that I have never bottle necked on Trit. For me it is always Pyerite.

Ahh, yes I know what ye seek, you're looking for the name brand stuff, go to any 0.8 system my son and ye will find premium roids in the roid field, your other systems seem to have lack of the many such low hanging premium fruit.

Ye is not after scordite ye wishes massive scordite
Ye is not after Veldspar ye wishes dence Veldspar
Ye is not after regular prox ye wishes for visc prox

Tip, get away from;
1.Trade hubs
2.noob systems
find places off the beaten path, they are out there.

Remember 0.8 system will have the +10% ye seek.

no, you just don't mine it since it's not worth the time. you mine the other, more lucrative ores and sell what you don't need from the refining process and purchase trit.

which means, more minerals, which means cheaper ships, and if the link between plex prices and mineral prices holds true maybe even cheaper plexes.

huzzah!

You damn right. Highsec is the place to be for risk-free easy money. I love it, keep buffing highsec CCP!

That risk free 10 mill/hr should put them on par with null in oh, 50 years. Be sure to use some extreme outside example of the guy multi boxing 40 accounts to mine Ice now Cool Ignore the fact that he is forking over either 200 billion a month or $480 US a month to do that.
