A ragequit over arsenic. I'm taking a break from this game.

I recently achieved Duke and bought an Imperial Cutter, feeling on top of the world. But then I spent two nights of gameplay trying to find arsenic on a planet surface - and found none. I had driving the SRV - I find it infuriating. But that's the quickest way to get arsenic. I've never received it as a mission reward, despite doing thousands of missions.The planet supposedly had 2.5%. I used wavescanner.net to make sure I was searching for the right thing. I took absolutely everything from every single meteorite or outcrop I found. I went around the edges of craters. Nothing.
Player activity should not go so unrewarded. Poorly made RNG results in bad game design. I already hate the SRV, and then to make something labeled 'Common' borderline impossible to find? Rage.
I'm taking a couple months off of this game, sorry Paladin Consortium. What should have been a gameplay milestone has instead completely turned me off of the game.
I was excited to participate in PC - but now I'm just sick of the game itself.
