Pirating Low Temperature Diamonds

Hey, just came back to the game. Before I left, i would goto High Pop Agricultural Anarchy systems and pull over T9's T7's etc with mining laser and they would have low temperature diamonds. i would hatch break and steal. Just wondering if anyone knows what systems these ships with low temp diamonds are in nowadays. any help from any commanders out there would be greatly appreciated.
 
Sadly its bugged, ships will magically repair destroyed engines.
You could go Core mining, but well, that is bugged too.
You could steal diamonds from installations and mega-ships though... if it wasn't bugged too.

Sorry to spoil it for you m8 but lots is broken atm.
 
well, i have a way to stop the ship, i get the ships to stop, no problem, its just the systems i go into have very few ships with LTDs on them. i'm trying Industrial Boom systems, ive got a few ships but literally none of the ships have diamonds. I would just like any information on what systems there are in now
 
Stopping the ship isnt a problem, the problem is they will magically repair the engines if anyone joins the instance with you.
Might be ok if your solo as I dont think npcs trigger the magic.

Anyway, last time I tried, I found LTD in agri systems. Its just a lot fewer than before. I would manifest scan maybe 10 ships and find 1 LTD.
That was 6 months ago.

It might be that there's more than one economy in the system and that will contaminate things. Try sticking to high population systems as well (as far as you can).

Try and keep an eye out for systems where the controlling faction is in public holiday as this buffs the prices for these when you come to sell them (assuming the price was worth it in the first place). I think prices are still demand based as well in the black market, so don't expect a 500,000 credit sale price to stay like that if you exceed about 10% of demand with what's in your hold when you dock.

Nowadays I don't do this for credits. It's something I do for fun that's earns more in the same time than bounty hunting. But then there are people far better than me out there.
 
Ltds in large numbers are not common now.

They do still occur, but you have to be prepared to wait for the spawn.

Asps, both types, tend to be a good target, look for the mining laser. They will normally have 24 - 34 in them.

You sound like you have tbe right system type running with Industrial. Boom adds to the chance of a good haul.

A T9 is like hitting a jackpot these days, so make the most of it when you do get one.
