Elite: Game talk

Silver TafferUnfortunately they are restricting Colonisation to the bubble, at least for the initial roll-out. On the positive side they didn't rule out extending it to the Colonia region in the fullness of time.
I do hope so!

They might have a initiation as a CG for some region in the Center. Not seeing any lore-based reason, but why not.

Ralph ThumHello pilots, I need some help once again, please:
During transports from Sol to V886 I lost some passengers due to Thargoid attacks (an unfriendly bunch, those Thargoids!). I then had to cancel the orders in order to be able to use my cabins again. I've now been fined between 10k and 30k, but I can't pay them, neither via Interstellar Factors nor directly in the contacts menu in the Sol system. Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug in the game?

Thanks in advance for your help.

I lost 3 passengers during my first sortie but didn't have to cancel the orders...

You in a metallic ring or a metal rich ring? since metal rich only has platinum cores.



I use Inara for searching metal rings, with platinum spots. and rings have a spots, but i cant find any platinum, i use laser mining not core mining. i broke left arm, and its only 1 way to play ED with 1 hand ))



Fly into the HYADES SECTOR DB-X D1-112, Planet 2 (terrestrial water world with metallic ring). There are several platinum hotspots there. You have to jump into the overlap of the platinum hotspots. Almost every asteroid there has 40 percent platinum. If you don't know what is meant by the overlap, look it up on YouTube. Normal mining and jumping into overlapping hotspots are explained there. There is also a mining tool for Elite.

On Youtube, a user mined 500 tons of platinum in half an hour in an Imperial Cutter. He used four mining lasers and 4 x 5A collecting drones (12 pieces). There are stations in Elite that pay 280000 credits or more for 1 ton of platinum. He earned 140000000 million credits in half an hour. You can get rich with mining.

Anyone knows what ranks or/and how many Merits one needs to unlock the prismatic shields those days?

With the power of Aisling Duval, the prism shield is the first module to be unlocked. Aisling Duval unlocks at rank 34. By the way, you can see for yourself when which modules will be activated based on your power. When you're sitting in the cockpit, go to the interface on the right. Next to the HOLO-ME button is Power Games. Go to that and then Loyalty. There you can see at which rank which modules of your power are unlocked.

Thanks guys for your reply. I just reached Rank 16, I guess it's gonna take me more time...

On a positive note, thanks to the goodies given after some ranks, I was able to reopen my Bartender with a small starter stock.

From my search on Elite dangerous wiki; rank 34 would require 247,000 merits, assuming my maths is correct - always an important caveat, mathematician I ain't

I'm now Ranked 19th, I can expect to make the 100.000.000 Cr before the next cycle, Rank 34 is a lot, but if it means unlocking all weapons it's worth the effort.

You have to kill the thargois, pays well did few, and pick up lost pods/cargo.

Rank 34 is just the first module. The rest unlock over other ranks up to 97, each power unlocks modules in a different order. There is a data grid on Elite Dangerous Wiki you can check the progression for your chosen power.
