So, story time.

Got bored(my research jobs are in progress and manufacturing is on hold due to researching my better money-makers) so I decided to do some light ratting. Hit a few open combat anomalies with my trusty tristam, got a mission from one.

Went to it in a cruiser(New comat thing, bricktank up, RED ALERT!), and long story short, that was a long, painful slog, but it ended in a pirate mod that damn near stopped my heart. 200mil. Did I just stroke out or something? WHY HAVE I NOT BEEN DOING THIS ALL THE TIME!?

So yeah. got lucky, now I think I'll be doing much more ratting/missioning than dicking around in belts for pennies.

The game is telling you that there's stuff out there to be found and played with.

Tell me when you will find stuff worth 1B in the wreck. Yes, it can happen. Big smile

Only worth 200 mil if you sell it and someone is willing to pay for it.

I expect to get this post deleted or locked. So much for freedom of expression.

Gratz and welcome to the wonderful world of exploration.

Just remember it's like panning for gold, takes a lot of time and more often than not you'll barely find anything of worth. However every once in a while you'll find the mother-load which makes the time spent worth while.

Mining is the worst way to make money.
