There's an uninhabited system right next to Deciat with a pristine metallic ring if you don''t want to go too far to get that Praseodymium:
Col 285 Sector OS-T d3-148

Found on my website with this search:
PMRS near Deciat
Smoke me a kipper, I'll be back for breakfast.

Find out what is near you:

What I WAS just doing, was doing a round trip from Deciat to Maia to Deciat, for some Meta-Alloys 8-)

Nice 800ish ly trip, kinda scary for a noob like me...

Been more than a month since I purchased the Imperial Cutter, a great ship, paid for itself a few times since, done the Engineer work on her and the Clipper currently doing some mods on the FDL. After working CEOS/Sothis located a few Systems 180-400LY from Achenar, there is a group of 7 Systems 4 within 2-4 Jumps, many 120 32-120T Cargo runs stack-able but there are also lots of small short hauls, and stacking smuggling runs, heck 5Mil to smuggle a few tons one or 2 jumps, 1800-2200ls to the station, (lawless) a few FDL and Conda Interdict ions along the way but that is just bonus credits, do that all day. Usually I can take what pops up on the mission list instead waiting and refreshing I head for the next system and repeat, do that in the morning, a little RES Hunting in the Afternoon, head out in the evening load up for the next day. Flew the Federal Corvette in Beta now there is a fighting War machine surprised how quick she is. Also flew the FGS a tough ship may do the short grind and buy that one. The game keeps getting better and better. Awesome.

Engineers Cutter improvements really did surprise me especially jump range and speed. May as well remain in this system for awhile it has many different missions types, RES, Conflict Zones and a CNAV nearby something for the FDL to do, the Clipper can be company for the Cutter while they sit docked. Just 6 points from being King of my own Messy Desktop Domain what a Kingdom to be King of, but it's clean; LOL

I must have been doing CEOS/SOTHIS wrong because I could not pull 70 to 100 Mil out of in 60-90 Minutes I read that other were doing it most time it was all my game time that day.

BLISTERS!!! I was just very happy to start playing, approaching a CZ, and then Transaction Server Failure. Even the Launcher throws me back to "training" and "no connection".
Really!


EDIT works again, without problems.

Realizing what 2.9% Arsenic means when scavenging. Found some a few times in outcrops. Also stumbled upon 3 skimmers protecting something. No experience with them yet so I decided to back away quickly.

Wow..... 2.9% Arsenic is pretty high. Where did you find that, if you don't mind me asking.
