In addition, in case you did not know it, if you are close enough with the tractor beam turned on when you fragment the big chunks, you will instantly scoop up all the small chunks. It make mining a lot more efficient.


That's what I did, one mining laser and one tractor beam in my JSF. And that tip is very helpful, I found out about that last night.

How was the fighting with the mining laser?

I am IMP and I have to use my JSF for mining. one real gun and the other a mining laser.

I wonder if I can kill the lvl 5 diamond bandits off with a mining laser?

I really envy the rebs and free lance with their 3 gun ships. for mining laser. trator beam and weapon slot.

Stock X-Wing with a trio of Mark IIIs. Hell on Capacitor energy, but I fear nothing.

bellbulab- 1 mark III mining laser and a TB- I can fill a large cargo hold in about10-15 minutes- and scoot off the the station to land at 1400 (with EO3) Makes for very quick turn-around.
