I decided to unlock Bill Turner on Tuesday. I'm nine hours over four days into the process and have 42 units of bromellite for the second time. I spent three hours the first time getting 50 units in pristine icy rings to find out I needed an Alioth permit when attempting delivery. Tried to gain allied status via bounty hunting w/ the bromellite in my hold at a compromised nav beacon. My A rated near fully engineered Anaconda couldn't keep up after being swarmed each time. Hatch breakers eventually got 25 of the 50 units before I decided to sell what was left. I spent a full night bounty hunting to get the rank up. I visited nine different large landing pads controlled by Alioth Independants before I received the permit mission. Now I'm back out mining another 50 bromellite in my third prestine icy ring system and just left for yet another limpet refill run. In the many hours of mining I've used 368 total limpets and found two asteroids with 18% bromellite. A few with ~9%. Using 3A rated prospector controller. I also forgot to buy limpets twice before starting to mine and had to return to a system two jumps away.
This has been my worst time in the game so far. It's been so frustrating. Almost a whole week and really nothing to show for it other than the money and increase in rank from bounty hunting. I did mine 1 unit of low temperature diamonds for a whopping $57k I guess
