Video for solo miners. RisboTheBlade covers a few different topics here and how to tackle big rocks.

How to calculate the amount of SCU you get from a rock:

  • He gives a roundabout method, but just take the direct percentage and multiply the SCU amount by that (from his example it would be 247.37*0.3203).

How to stabilize your ship to avoid wobbling:

  • Angle ship downward at 45⁰ angle to get your main thrusters farther away from the ground.

Other tips and tricks:

  • Why Instability is bad (you want it in the green)
  • Use gadgets on secondary breaks to lower instability so that you don't lose out on ore.
  • Turn on lifeline module when the green bar is ~2/3 full
  • Use modules completely so that they fall off
  • Reduce refinery times by placing half of your pods in the cargo elevator.
  • Sell quantanium to players looking to complete Wikelo missions to easily double what you can earn (UEX Corp has a useful player marketplace).

Good tips. I bought an ATLS Geo when wobble came out and have been gem mining waiting for 4.2.1. Maybe its time to pack up camp on Pyro 4 and go Quant hunting.
