Gas cloud harvesting: Difference between revisions

Line 1:

'''Gas cloud ~~mining~~''' is the process of collecting gas from interstellar clouds, for use in [[~~Combat Booster~~|combat booster]] and [[Tech 3 Production|Tech III]] production. It is accomplished by ~~finding~~ a [[Scanning:Scan Results#Gas Sites (Known Space)|nebula]] in known space or a [[Wormhole Gas Sites|fullerite reservoir]] in wormhole space, and ~~mining~~ it with a gas cloud harvester module.

==Types of gas and where to find them==

The two types of gas are both found in [[cosmic signatures]] which need to be scanned down in order to harvest.

===Mykoserocin and cytoserocin===

Mykoserocin and cytoserocin, which are used to produce [[~~Combat Booster~~|combat booster]] drugs, are found in nebulae in known space. Mykoserocin, which is used to make the milder and less profitable Synth boosters, are found in high and low security space, while cytoserocin, which can make the more effective but dangerous forms of boosters, is found in low and null security space. Nebulae are rare in high sec, and more common in low and null sec. Mytoserocin and cytoserocin are further broken down into eight "flavors", each used to create a different booster effect.

Unlike most exploration sites, nebulae are not randomly distributed throughout space. Each flavor of gas will only spawn in one region, and some regions will never have a gas site appear. Additionally, within the gas type's region, there is one 'hot spot' constellation where at least one site will always be present.

Line 13:

Mykoserocin tends not to be very profitable to harvest, as demand for Synth boosters is low. Cytoserocin, however, is fairly profitable, although more hazardous to acquire.

~~Cyto Gas~~ clouds can also be found in level 4 [[Mission#Mining Missions|mining missions]] as well, but the varieties present have no use beyond turning in to complete the mission.

== The value of gas ==

Gas does not have to be refined in order to use it, as ore and ice products do. It can be used in Tech III production by turning it into a polymer using a [[Polymer Reactor Array]]. The difference in value between gasses can be extreme, due to the scarcity of the gas and the value of the end products. While C320/540 is highly valuable, the risk versus reward is often too high for beginners. Many find that a more manageable target is to harvest C50 as the risk is low and the reward is decent. Harvesting C320/540 will normally require several people working together, which usually means using haulers and a dedicated scout.
