Just got back from Colonia last night and the first thing I decided to do was complete the engineering on a couple of ships.
First thing on the shopping list was Proto Radiolic Alloys.
Used to be that you couldn't throw a rock, in LHS 20, without hitting PRAs.
The system is almost always in Boom and HGEs in Boom systems provide PRAs so, job's a good 'un.
Hopped into my Krait, flew to the nav-buoy; no HGEs.
Okay then.
To the galmap, pick out a dozen systems in Boom and do a lap of them.
Not one HGE in any of them.
Not flippin' one.
That's 2 hours I'm not getting back.
Seriously, tell me that I have to fly to Sag A to accomplish something, or destroy 100 Elite Cutters, and I'm on it.
As long as Iknow KNOW that what I'm doing is going to get me to my objective I'm fine with it.
Searching for HGEs, however, is just so goddam passive and uninvolving that it's ridiculous.
Yes, sure, find other stuff and trade.
Blah, blah, blah.
