KrennalI love combat aftermath sources, they always leave good stuff behind....what, stop looking at me that way, they don't need it anymore!

Wish I could rep this post!

KrennalThanks for the feedback guys I'll keep plugging away at Sothis and Robigo until I hit it rich


Also go to Ceos. Its right near Sothis. I find that I can get more credits for missions there then Sothis. With my ASP I was earning anywhere from 10 to 20 mil credits in about an hour. As I am based out of Altair I would grab a bunch of silks, and head out. I would scan every system I went through and when I got there sell the silks and the data. It more than paid the fuel and any repairs I might have. Also I would top off with the sothis gold rare if I had room before I left. All though rares seem to be bugged and you may have to log out and in a few times to get them to show the correct sell price.

So looking at ship builds. What qualifies as good DPS and good armor for a small to medium ship.

You might want to let people know what you're planning to use it for. Each specialism has a different approach and different ships suit different builds (e.g. PvP or PvE).

After playing 5 hours of No Mans Sky, it makes you really truly appreciate the flight control of Elite...

Was hoping for NMS to break up the grind... today went back to Elite and was thankful for it.

Wait- do tell more regarding NMS. It has a lot of grind too? Like what? I haven't bought it yet- I was maybe planning to! But what would you say?

Cexi GrossmanAnyone else having a horrible time finding Osmium out near Jaques??? I seem to be finding everything but. In a 288t hold I tend to walk away with only like... 7 osmium. What gives?

I have had luck at the pristine ring on the planet closest to Jaques usually on 200 I have made three runs 110, 100 and 80 ton of Osmium and the rest Painite or Platinum but that may just be rng at its best for me and worst for you.

Jaques Station says (in the mission area) to help by trading in commodities market or turning in exploration data. I cant find anywhere to turn in exploration data...no universal carto. Is this a bug or are they going to open later??

Can exploration data be sold at Jaques?  If so how?  I have looked for universal carto and there is none.  In the mission board the controlling faction says no mission available but to help by trading in the commodities market and selling exploration data. ??

I haven't reached Jacques yet so can't tell - but there seems to be a bug with some engineers where you can't sell on first visit - you have to leave (system?) and return. Maybe this is it?

About 1700 LY as of last night. My jump range is not very good for a trip like this, so I expect to get there probably Sunday some time.

In the Hull and Armour mods with Selene Jean, what does it mean when it says a number? Is that net representing a percentage such as resistance versus any of the three damaging types?
