Picked up my alt account for a change and am trying out the mining thing in a python.
I can't think of a better ship to do this in.
Quick and nimble enough to weave around and get in between a cracked roid for some manual pickup since collector limpets are suicidal imbeciles.

Spent about an hour and half in a belt today and left with almost 60 low temp diamonds and some other valuable whatever's.
In total about 60 mil worth from the one trip.

Rule 1: Pillage. Then burn.
Rule 2: No such thing as overkill, as long as there are reloads.

Just finished A-rating my Cobra and am now trying to become proficient with PAs. Definitely going to take some serious practice. Still haven't seen a single CMDR after 20 hours in Mobius U.S.. Guess everyone's doing DW2 :/

No that's normal.

Is there anything resembling a hub where there might be an increased chance to see other people? I guess the starter system would get that title.

Just joined, nice to meet you all, I'm silently tagging along with DW2 atm. I sprinkled a few ships in that direction then ran back to the bubble to help my son get pack hounds and earn some money. Just hit the 3rd WP last night, and I was in the PG, but I didn't see anyone yet - kicking myself for swapping ships and mods and losing my npc-co-pilot a couple thousand light years back.

Jameson Memorial in Shinrarta Dezhra, but only after you get at least one Elite. But it's not a problem now with Void Opal mining.

The starter system was somewhat randomised because guess what.

That got camped hard in open.

As for common systems there usually is some people around whatever community goal is running this week and the usual places.

Doesn't really matter though since in game people are busy with their own agendas.
You would be lucky to get as much as a hello.

If you actually want to find people to play with check the discord or ts first.

Awesome. I'll check out discord then. Makes sense about randomizing the starting areas to control ganking. I'll look into Jameson Memorial as well. Thanks for the advice cmdrs! o7
