Is Mining Still the Most Reliable Income?
A lot of people say mining is the best way to make money, but I’m not sure anymore. I tried it in the past, and sometimes it was great, but other times I barely made anything because of bugs or bad rock spawns. I’m thinking about getting back into it in 4.4, but I don’t know if it’s still worth the hassle. Do you actually earn steady aUEC from mining now, or is it more random than people admit? I’d like to know what others are experiencing lately.

Mining is solid, but you need good equipment, and that’s where most players get stuck early on. That’s why many people buy star citizen credits to get the ships and gear needed for profitable mining. With fast delivery and a simple setup—choose the amount, add your RSI handle, pick a payment option—you get your aUEC almost instantly. Once you upgrade your mining gear or buy a Prospector, the income becomes much smoother. Since wipes reset everyone, players often prefer skipping the early grind and going straight into the activities they enjoy.
