Correction, "overlapping LTD hotspots now are nerfed which will make overlapping very rare"Nerfed by 25% and overlapping LTD hotspots now are fixed so that the overlaps have most stuff to mine
I don't think it is gone, but lets wait and see
New Borann is dead, long live the next New New Borann!
In what sense, laser mining included?
Sorry, confused as the LTD3 overlap is still there !!!???
In no sense at all, I think you can still make good credits. I did not mine there much so can't say how bad the nerf is.
FDev uses those system names as a way to make VR play of the game just THAT much less viable. It's their way of increasing flat-screen uptake for Odyssey....
OTOH, ithas probably prompted some few pilots to begin using bookmarks functionality in the Gal Map, so there's that...

How I read the patch notes was "You will still find hotspots that overlap, but the drop-off as you go to the edge of the hotspot will have a greater effect. This means double hotspots won't be as effective, but triple hotspots will still be as effective (because of how they generate)"
I didn't read that as "We've re-rolled the hotspot generation"

They also wrote that the maximum yield for subsurface mining of LTDs was reduced by 25%. Nobody said anything about the average yield - that might be still the same, less or more than before the patch, yet everyone[1] shouts "LTDs nerfed by 25%!!!111!!". Kids, before the FC patch, the maximum yield in subsurface mining was 1 chunk per missile.
[1]i.e., everyone who shouts. You might call that a biased sample, in any sense of the word.
BTW, around this weekend I'll need quite a few Core Dynamics Composites, Proto Heat and a few Pharmaceutical Isolators. Any recommendations for high pop fed systems?

System states can change on the BGS tick. Best check eddb on the day for systems in the appropriate state.
Hey guys,
i still see a lot of fleet carriers around Col 285 Sector CC-K a38-2.
As you all mentioned it got fixxed or worked on.
In the tripe LTD Hotspot at Col 285 Sector CC-K a38-2 I have now shooted 122 prospector limpets and only got 30 LTD's. So I'll never get my cargo completly filled with LTD's.
Regarding this I'll only get around 125 LTD's if i shoot 512 prospectors..that wont happen because you also need collectors...so if i am lucky i'll have like 100 LTD's ~ 70 million CR.
In a double Grandidierite Spot I used the prospectors very rare because of the impuls scanner. So if i find one asteroid ill have to dissmiss some limpets in my cargo to fit in the loot.
So if i used 120 prospector ill have more than 120 grandidierite. So i can fill my cargo completly and dont have to go sell just half filled.
Grandidierite, Alexandrite and LTD's sell for the same price atm. All arround ~ 700k - 750k.
Time was like an hour for 30 LTD's and like an hour for 70 Grandidierite, 11 LTD's and 16 Alexandrite. LTD mining with mining laser and Grandidierite with scanner and rockets and abrasion.
So with the price beeing nearly the same, with the fact that you cant fill you cargo completly at the 3 LTD spots anymore, i found the double spots of alexandrite, grandidierite much more efficent than the 3 LTD's
what do you think?

Double Painite... That's what I think.
Ah okay, haven't done any Painite mining for a long time, ill look for a spot and see how it is compared to the double grandidierite.
Thanks
But you can't make enough money to buy 18 Anacondas in 13 minutes anymore, so ED is dead completely, nothing is worth it, and I'm uninstalling NOW!!!
You can fill your ship up within a couple or so hours, even if she's sporting 600+ cargo and sell locally to Carriers for 715k per tonne or haul it to a good station paying over 950k per tonne.
