Gas cloud harvesting is the process of collecting gas from interstellar clouds, for use in combat booster and Tech III production.

Players harvesting (or "huffing") gas locate a "nebula" in known space or a "fullerite reservoir" in wormhole space, and collect it with a gas cloud harvester module. Note that although the in-game probing window classifies "chemical labs" as a type of gas site, they are actually combat-and-hacking locations, and should be avoided by gas harvesting ships.

Types of gas

The three types of gas are all found in cosmic signatures which need to be probe scanned down in order to harvest.

Most Nebula sites will display the following pop-up message when warped to. This can be useful to determine if a bookmark is still connected to an active site or if it has despawned. The message's title will be the name of the type of gas within the site.

Pop-up message — (Type of gas in site)
Originally thought to be little more than a picturesque deviation from the monotonous emptiness of space, scientists and unscrupulous entrepreneurs alike have begun to appreciate the various gas cloud formations that have been discovered in recent years. Initial research into the properties of the gaseous phenomena revealed that when it came to facilitating the growth of certain types of crystal, they were one of the most conducive environments in the entire cluster. At first the crystal byproducts were viewed as a potential military innovation, offering slightly improved cost efficiency in electronics and weapons manufacture. When their massive potential for use in booster production was discovered however, viewpoints shifted dramatically, and nowadays they are coveted as a fundamental resource driving the burgeoning booster industry.

Mykoserocin

Mykoserocin is used to produce synth variation of combat boosters, and neurolink enhancers, which are part of faction and capital ship production chain. Nebulae with Mykoserocin can be found in high, low and null security space. All of them reside in non-deadspace areas and are not guarded by NPCs.

Please note that list of locations where each Nebula site spawns is not exhaustive. It was expanded and new data is still being added.

A long, long time ago...

Mykoserocin used to spawn similarly to Cytoserocin, highly concentrated in a specific constellation of a specific region. This was changed on 2021-04-13, when its spawn locations were significantly extended to accommodate increased demand. List of old spawn locations is below:

Amber: The Forge (Mivora)
Golden: Lonetrek (Umamon)
Viridian: Placid (Amevync)
Celadon: Solitude (Elerelle)
Lime: Derelik (Joas)
Malachite: Aridia (Fabai)
Azure: Molden Heath (Tartatven)
Vermillion: Heimatar (Hed)

Now, these areas don't seem to be special when it comes to gas harvesting. But, each constellation always has a synth booster laboratory, a hacking site which drops synth reactions, among other things.

Cytoserocin

Cytoserocin is used to produce stronger variations of combat boosters. It is used in neurolink enhancers' production just like Mykoserocin, but amounts needed for that are much more modest. Unlike most exploration sites, nebulae are not randomly distributed throughout space. Each flavor of gas will be concentrated in one constellation of one region, and some regions will never have a cytoserocin nebula appear.

Majority of Cytoserocin nebulae are unstable. Every time a Gas Cloud Harvester finishes its cycle there is a chance that the cloud will "explode", dealing some damage to your ship. For exact numbers and damage types refer to the table below. There, each row represents an individual possibility. Bear in mind that damage area seems to be defined separately from gas cloud area. Depending on nebula type, damage area center might not coincide with the gas cloud center, and damage radius might be bigger or smaller than the cloud's radius as well.

Fullerenes

Main article: Wormhole gas sites

Fullerenes are used in Tech 3 and Capital production, and can only be found at sites in wormhole space. It comes in several different flavors of varying value. Fullerite gas sites spawn in all classes of wormhole, but the valuable Instrumental Core Reservoir and Vital Core Reservoir will only spawn in C5 and C6 wormholes, or shattered wormholes of any class.

Most fullerene sites are empty when first warped to, but will spawn several Sleepers after a certain amount of time, usually about 15-20 minutes. Thus, it is possible to "ninja harvest" wormhole gas sites by harvesting gas until the sleepers arrive, and then warping away before they can attack. However, the Ordinary Perimeter Reservoir starts with 5 sentry drones, which will blow up any Venture that warps there, and should be avoided until they are cleared.

Most fullerenes are very profitable, though dangerous to harvest.

Name	Volume (m³)	Found in		Value
Name	Volume (m³)	Primary	Secondary	Value
C50	1	Barren Perimeter Reservoir	Sizable Perimeter Reservoir	Low
C60	1	Token Perimeter Reservoir	Barren Perimeter Reservoir	Low
C70	1	Minor Perimeter Reservoir	Token Perimeter Reservoir	Mid
C72	2	Ordinary Perimeter Reservoir	Minor Perimeter Reservoir	Mid
C84	2	Sizable Perimeter Reservoir	Ordinary Perimeter Reservoir	Low
C28	2	Bountiful Frontier Reservoir	Vast Frontier Reservoir	Mid
C32	5	Vast Frontier Reservoir	Bountiful Frontier Reservoir	Low
C320	5	Instrumental Core Reservoir	Vital Core Reservoir	High
C540	10	Vital Core Reservoir	Instrumental Core Reservoir	High

Harvesting process

Harvesting a gas cloud is very similar to mining an asteroid. Equip the appropriate harvesting module to a ship, locate a gas cloud, approach and target it, and activate the harvesting module. At the end of each module cycle, gas will be deposited into the cargo or mining hold. The visual effect of the harvesters is much more subdued than mining lasers, requiring you to zoom the camera very close to the ship to see.

Make sure you have gas clouds displayed in your overview, as they are not selectable by default. To do this, right click the overview, select open overview settings, select the filter tab, open the celestials folder, and check the Harvestable Clouds box (see screenshot right).

Gas can be stored in the mining/gas holds of specialized mining and hauling ships. Units of mykoserocin and cytoserocin are bulkier than individual ore units at 10 m³, while the various types of fullerite gas range from 1 to 10 m³. The range of the harvester module is much shorter than a mining laser at only 1.5 km, but the clouds are large and non-collideable.

Skills

Gas harvesting has very few skills related to it. The primary skill is Gas Cloud Harvesting, which can be bought for 30M ISK from the specialized NPC vendors, or marked up PC sell orders. This skill is trainable by alpha clones to level II. This skill requires Mining IV. You can only use one gas cloud harvester per trained skill level. Note that this is very different from normal mining, where the number of mining lasers is not determined by skills. Getting the skill to V allows for Tech 2 harvesters to be used, which have 100% increased yield over Tech 1. Gas Cloud Harvesting should be trained either to II (to equip two harvesters on a Venture or Prospect) or V (to use T2 harvesters).

Additionally, Ventures and Prospects decrease their gas harvesting cycle duration with the Mining Frigate skill. This is the only other skill that increases gas harvesting yield.

General fitting and tanking skills are also recommended in order to safely fly a well fitted harvesting ship.

Equipment

To get gas, you need gas cloud scoops/harvesters and a ship to put them on. There are very few real options in fitting a gas harvesting ship. Unlike regular mining, there are no modules or rigs to increase yield. There are no gas equivalents to the Mining Laser Upgrade. For each level of the Gas Cloud Harvesting skill you can fit one additional gas cloud scoop/harvester(up to a total of 5 at skill level V); all gas cloud miners have a range of 1.5 km

Gas cloud scoops

Gas cloud scoops are placed in the high slots and require a turret hardpoint each. These modules are intended to be used with Mining frigates, but can be fit to any ship that has a turret hardpoint.

Gas cloud harvesters

Gas cloud harvesters are placed in the high slots. These modules are restricted to be used with Mining Barges and Exhumers. Harvesters mine a larger amount but with a longer cycle time.

Module	Tech	Meta			Cycle	Yield per cycle	Yield per minute	Residue Multiplier	Residue Probability	Skill
Gas Cloud Harvester I	I	0	60	10	200	100	30	0 x	0 %	Gas Cloud Harvesting I
Gas Cloud Harvester II	II	5	66	10	160	200	75	1 x	34 %	Gas Cloud Harvesting V

Click on the column headers to sort the table; mouse over them for a more detailed explanation. More information: Skills - Tech and Meta levels.

Ships

While gas cloud scoops can be mounted on any ship with turret slots, only the Venture and Prospect have bonuses to their use. A Venture with two harvesters and Mining Frigate trained to IV has the equivalent yield to an unbonused ship with five harvesters. Additionally, it is far more agile than any ship that could fit five harvesters, and has a specialized mining hold for the gas. Thus it is by far the most common ship to use for harvesting gas.

The Prospect has the ability to fit a Covert Ops Cloaking Device, giving it more safety in the hostile environments in which the more valuable forms of gas are found. It also has a larger mining hold for the gas, and a larger regular cargo hold allowing for a mobile depot to be carried. However, it harvests at the same rate as an equivalently skilled Venture, and is considerably more expensive.

Implants

Main article: Skill Hardwiring

The Eifyr and Co. 'Alchemist' Gas Harvesting is the only implant range which affects gas harvesting. It reduces gas harvester cycle time, and is available in 1%, 3%, and 5% varieties. They are sold in most LP stores.

Gas value

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 Standup Hybrid Reactor I (see Tech 3 Production § Hybrid Polymer Reactions). 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.

-====Nebulae====
+{{expansion past | Mykoserocin used to spawn similarly to Cytoserocin, highly concentrated in a specific constellation of a specific region. This was changed on 2021-04-13, when its spawn locations were significantly extended to accommodate increased demand. List of old spawn locations is below:
-Nebulae are gas sites that contain either mykoserocin or cytoserocin, and are found only in known space. Once spawned, they will despawn either when fully harvested, or after three days elapse. Rarely, nebulae may include loot cans containing blueprints or skillbooks related to drug use or manufacturing.
+* Amber: The Forge (Mivora)
+* Golden: Lonetrek (Umamon)
+* Viridian: Placid (Amevync)
+* Celadon: Solitude (Elerelle)
+* Lime: Derelik (Joas)
+* Malachite: Aridia (Fabai)
+* Azure: Molden Heath (Tartatven)
+* Vermillion: Heimatar (Hed)
-Nebulae found in nullsec may spawn hostile pirate NPCs. Additionally, nullsec nebulae are unstable, and will periodically deal 1000 damage to harvesting ships in the area.
+Now, these areas don't seem to be special when it comes to gas harvesting. But, each constellation always has a synth booster laboratory, a hacking site which drops synth reactions, among other things.

+=== Cytoserocin ===
+Cytoserocin is used to produce stronger variations of [[Medical boosters|combat boosters]]. It is used in neurolink enhancers' production just like Mykoserocin, but amounts needed for that are much more modest. Unlike most exploration sites, nebulae are not randomly distributed throughout space. Each flavor of gas will be concentrated in one constellation of one region, and some regions will never have a cytoserocin nebula appear.
+Majority of Cytoserocin nebulae are unstable. Every time a Gas Cloud Harvester finishes its cycle there is a chance that the cloud will "explode", dealing some damage to your ship. For exact numbers and damage types refer to the table below. There, each row represents an individual possibility. Bear in mind that damage area seems to be defined separately from gas cloud area. Depending on nebula type, damage area center might not coincide with the gas cloud center, and damage radius might be bigger or smaller than the cloud's radius as well.

-Harvesting a gas cloud is very similar to mining an asteroid. Equip the appropriate harvesting module to a ship, locate a gas cloud, approach and target it, and activate the harvesting module. At the end of each module cycle, gas will be deposited into the cargo hold or ore bay. The visual effect of the harvesters is much more subdued than mining lasers, requiring you to zoom the camera very close to the ship to see.

 Make sure you have gas clouds displayed in your overview, as they are not selectable by default. To do this, right click the overview, select open overview settings, select the filter tab, open the celestials folder, and check the Harvestable Clouds box (see screenshot right).
-Gas can be stored in the ore holds of specialized mining and hauling ships even though it is not technically an ore. Units of mykoserocin and cytoserocin are bulkier than individual ore units at 10&nbsp;m<sup>3</sup>, while the various types of fullerite gas range from 1 to 10&nbsp;m<sup>3</sup>. The range of the harvester module is much shorter than a mining laser at only 1.5 km, but the clouds are large and non-collideable.

-==Skills==
+== Skills ==
-Gas harvesting has very few skills related to it. The primary skill is {{sk|Gas Cloud Harvesting}}, which can be bought for 24M isk from the specialized NPC vendors, or marked up PC sell orders. This skill is trainable by alpha clones to level II. This skill requires {{sk|Mining|IV}}. You can only use one gas cloud harvester per trained skill level. Note that this is very different from normal mining, where the number of mining lasers is not determined by skills. Getting the skill to 5 allows for Tech 2 harvesters to be used, which have 50% increased yield over Tech 1. Gas Cloud Harvesting should be trained either to 2 (to equip two harvesters on a Venture or Prospect) or 5 (to use T2 harvesters).

-The two meta 1 gas cloud harvesters have lower fitting requirements than the meta 0 module, however, even an average-skilled pilot should have no problem fitting a [[Venture]] with two meta 0 gas cloud harvesters. The tech 2 module has 50% more yield than its tech 1 counterparts, and is therefore a very worthwhile upgrade despite the long skill training time (and the slightly more demanding fitting - although it should still not cause problems for most miners). The Syndicate harvester (obtainable from the [[Intaki Syndicate]] LP store), is very rare, expensive, and almost never worth using unless you need every last drop of CPU fitting for other modules.
+=== Gas cloud harvesters ===
+Gas cloud harvesters are placed in the high slots. These modules are restricted to be used with Mining Barges and Exhumers.
+Harvesters mine a larger amount but with a longer cycle time.

-While gas cloud harvesters can be mounted on any ship with turret slots, only the {{sh|Venture}} and {{sh|Prospect}} have bonuses to their use. A {{co|wheat|Venture}} with two harvesters and {{sk|Mining Frigate|icon=yes}} trained to 4 has the equivalent yield to an unbonused ship with five harvesters. Additionally, it is far more agile than any ship that could fit five harvesters, and has a specialized ore hold for the gas. Thus it is by far the most common ship to use for harvesting gas.

It also has a larger ore hold for the gas, and a larger regular cargo hold allowing for a mobile depot to be carried. However, it harvests at the same rate as an equivalently skilled Venture, and is considerably more expensive.

 == Gas value ==
-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.
