Elite: Dangerous PvE - Mobius

The way we POI hunt when i'm hunting by myself, i'll get the rough middle position up high then drop down low, and work my way out in what i hope is a regular spiral my ship is skimming the surface, typically about 60m off the dirt, moving forwards at about 50 or so with the nose pointed down about...

sorry i thought you were talking about the Cutter, not Clipper. deleted.

i was just in that area a moment ago, lots of CMDRs ships and SRVs all in the same spot. that was kind of cool
going back again tomorrow to see if i can find some more meta alloy.

how do you tell if an item is mission-specific?

dammit, i just ordered a mug today with the old logo on it.

Well spread the word. If everyone in this group got on board and we helped it spread, it would go a long way to opening FDev's eyes a little don't you think? i've moaned about it on the FD forums so often i think i might be heading for a ban if i keep doing it having said that, it was the mission n...

so it looks like the best route is to maybe stick with cheaper ships for the planetary landings until FD sort out the glitches? i'd hate to lose my Annie to a bug like that, but Cobras grow on trees and have a tiny rebuy still downloading the darn thing. ETA varies between 7hrs and 6 days. fast? not...
