Topic: Silgium-2x drop rate

Currently you need to mine 35 silgium-2x to complete a single mission.
However the drop rate on Silgium-2x is much, much lower then on other special ores.
My current estimate is it takes 1150U to get 35 silgium-2x, this is subject to mined amount increase, but in that range.

The problem then is how much Silgium-2x you get by mining. Completing a mission takes over 3 hours in a riveler mk2.

Suggestion would be to increase the drop rate to match that of others, or reduce the amount of Silgium-2x a mission requires.

Re: Silgium-2x drop rate

+1 if this would be no bug, but intended, you should change intension or assignment.

As I already wrote in IRC it is ridiculous to mine ~5h Siglium on perfect spots within 24h with T4 equipped Riv MK2 to fullfill assignment that gives that low reward.

Especially if you consider that it is not likely that you could close this assignment on one mineral spot.

Edit it took me very close to 1000U to finish assignment

I believe this has been fixed in the 06-03 patch.
