where is blaus?

binary · 06-09-2007, 15:18

Dropped 250 bombs already in this run on TI, another 250 are waiting to be dropped. Well, I haven't found any blausariam yet in this run - only cobalt, gazz, duru. Seems quite strange to me as this is the first time I can't find any blaus there (although I have dropped tens of thousands of bombs on TI).

Is this only me? Or other people also can't find blaus today? Is it only TI or blaus is gone from other locations too? Does this happen with all resources from time to time?

I have dropped a few thousand bombs in TI and only got some smalls of blaus, but that last weeks i haven't found any. Only cobalt, gazz and some duru.

Seems the miner bots have taken all.

Since when are the miner bots anywhere near TI,,,or am I mistaken?

thanks for replies so far

Berul, it is (or was?) one of the main ores on TI. And this was the first run with no blaus for me...

chielsen, have you noticed this too?

Thorrn, miner bots are on S from central TI TP - I see them every time I run theere.

Miner bots are new to this VU, I havent been to TI since. Cool.

My last run at CND was missing more than just blaus.
Results were so bad, finds lower than before (couple months before) I just gave up, came back and think back at the wonderfull times in the past where it was worthwhile to mine at CND.

And yeps ... I didn't find blaus either there last time.

I'm wondering if they have put a greater change on the finders then. What level finder are you using? I discovered that when mining purposely for low level ores it is best to use a low level finder. At my skill level for example there is one area I can find Narc, Gazz, Erdo and a very rare Azzurdite deposiit.

If I use a 105 finder I will get about 1/3 of each of the ores with a slightly greater amount of Gazz usually. If I use a TT finder then at least half if not more of my TT return is Narc.

Not only skills are important. The choice of equipement is as well. It's possible they made it more so with some changes.

I see no changes in total return, just ... blaus is gone. I'm not mining on CND though.

Yes, this could be the reason (if it's for everyone). On the other hand - yesterday blaus still was one of the ores found...
About the finders - I use OF211(L) - my favourite. Blaus has never been a "rare" ore on TI with this finder (not for me, at least).

I think I'll try to use TT finder a bit to see if I can find any blaus with it.

It would also be nice to hear from miners that "live" on TI...

I've found lots of Blaus on TI lately - with my mk2.

Edit: can you get a mining global by killing a miner bot?
