Hi all

simple questions for you knowledgable lot but what excavotor can I buy to speed up extracting from a claim rod ?

Yesterday, I was delighted to get a global 160 PED of lysterium !!

Only to find out that extracting 16 stiones at a time with the TT excavator is APITA !! 2 repairs and an hour later I manage to deplete the thing.

What cheap upgrade can I buy cos as it stands I'd turn down an ATH at present :rolleyes:
 
With ath you'll get drilling tower so you won't have to drill yourself.
I would wait until you max out stat on your current extractor. I thought you will get skill bonuses so you will be extracting more (rather) quick.
You are real lucky with your global, i won't expect to get one soon you you won't have to upgrade..
 
I upgraded to a 101 series extractor, even without maxxing out the tt extractor first, simply because my stats on the 101 were much better than on the tt extractor. I immediatly noticed an improvement on the amounts I extract per pull. I also recommend switching to a 101 finder. Much better stats on that one even with very low mining skills. ;)
 
Just think about all the skills you are getting by extracting for nearly an hour :D

Fair point. did spot mining was flying up while I was hot keying the 2 key 16,000 times ;)
 
U can better salvage high tt ores, that will save u in extracting(but skill u just as fast / faster).
 
I'm still using the tt drills, but I carry two pieces of both with me nowadays .. just in case..

Edit: In case I some day happen to hit something really vast, I guess I have to run to auc first and buyout some better pronto..

Sorry, I don't understand ? I'm being thick aren't I ? :confused:

I'll get my coat !!
 
Carry a 101 extractor and a TT extractor at all times. Use TT for regular claims and 101 for 30+ PED claims.Also you get a drill tower any time you get a claim with 4,000 PED(TT value) of minerals or more. Not only when you get an ATH.

Well i'ts nice to get ore with higher tt value, because that means less pulls to get it up..
