' Wrote:The Cardamine/Slave route for instance, 30-40 minutes and you can make 25mil with a Pirate Transport. A Pirate Train would bring in about 35+mil. With a pirate train, thats 70mil an hour. Mining is rather.. crappy honestly. I can just go into the Taus, buy Niobz, and sell it to Manhattan and make more money trading than mining. The Silver fields (Colorado) seem to only drop one silver at a time now. A full load of Helium on a mining ship is like 1.25mil.. and it takes forever to mine.
Yes ... quite familiar with that route ... and I've got others. But mining would not be crappy if it was profitable. If its been nerfed ... then an entire role play option is out the window.
