Hey all,


What am I supposed to do if I want to mine asteroids? I have been out here blasting asteroids all morning. I am flying a Y-Wing Longprobe with my Mk I Mining Laser and my Starfighter Cargo Hold. Is there any other equipment that I am supposed to have to do this (like a tractor beam)? Will my hold fill automatically if I am blasting one of the sillicaceous asteroids? I am really confused.

I ask this at the risk that everyone will think I am a stupid noob (I got my account less than 3 weeks ago, and I'm already a rebel ace pilot), but how do you mine? I've been shooting this siliclatious Asteroid for forever now, and my cargohold is STILL at 0%. Can someone help me?

You have to shoot at the chunks that split off, they are easy to miss if you are to close to the asteroid For all further questions may I direct you to this wonderfull tutorial :
