Hegemon problems

[Haste]

I've made about 10 million credits Hegemon mining since the patch and I've spent about 4.5-5 hours actually doing it. On an indie ID (3.0x multiplier). Had I instead traded the stuff to a more remote location, like a BMM base in New London, I'd likely have made a healthy 6 million or so. Regardless, it's good stuff and that's with the PoB(s) heavily undercutting NPC bases in terms of HRC price.

Currently using a Hegemon to mine Gold Ore is likely a bit too fast. The primary benefit of slowing it down a little bit is that more remote PoBs would be more viable, as mining time would represent a more significant portion of the time spent collecting ore compared to travel time, making the latter less of a factor. I have not tried other mineables much so I don't have much of an opinion there.

If you're spending upwards of a minute mining a single asteroid in a Freighter or Fighter miner you are probably forgetting to mount missiles. Admittedly I don't think we mentioned that we strongly suggest using those on smaller ships outside of the balance notes.
