In the video, the host embarks on a solo mining expedition using the Golem and C2 ship, detailing the setup, challenges, and the process of extracting ores while managing container logistics. Despite facing issues with the ship’s balance and storage system that led to some cargo loss, the host reflects on the experience and encourages viewers to share their own solo mining stories.
In the video, the host embarks on a solo mining expedition using the Golem and the C2 ship, detailing the setup and planning involved. They begin by explaining the equipment needed, including two Drake ore containers for collecting mined resources. The host also mentions a specific limitation with the refinery system, noting that ores must be loaded onto the Golem for the computer to recognize them. With everything prepared, they aim to fill the containers with ores and return to the ship to swap them out before heading to the refinery.
The initial phase of the journey involves loading the Golem into the C2, which the host finds surprisingly fitting and spacious. They express excitement over the setup and the potential for efficient mining. After successfully loading the Golem, they set off to Magda to find a good mining location. The host sends out a ping to locate ore clusters and lands the ship in what they believe is a suitable spot for mining.
Upon reaching the mining location, the host begins extracting ores. They quickly fill up their first container with various materials, including a significant amount of teranite. The process appears to be going smoothly, and the host enjoys the mining experience. They decide to return to the C2 to swap out the filled container for an empty one, aiming to maximize their efficiency during the mining operation.
However, the host encounters challenges when attempting to manage the containers in the C2. They struggle with the ship’s balance and the placement of the ore pods, leading to some frustration. Despite these hiccups, they manage to continue mining and fill the second container. The host learns from their mistakes, realizing they could have worked more efficiently by keeping better track of the containers and their placements.
As the video progresses, the host attempts to return to a station to store their ship and refine the ores. Unfortunately, they face issues with the storage system, which results in the loss of some cargo. The host reflects on the challenges faced during the mining expedition, emphasizing the need for improvements in the game’s systems. They conclude by encouraging viewers to share their experiences and thoughts on solo mining with the Golem and C2, highlighting the time-consuming nature of setting up for these activities in the game.
