When decrypting there is a hot and cold bar. Start by spinning one way only. Horizontally or vertically. The bar will move either hotter or colder. Find the max, then spin the orb the other way. I usually start with a horizontal spin and move to vertical. Then hit the lock and do any fine tuning.
Moist kiki here. Doing manual mining has a 24hr system cool down timer before you can collect from the specified location again. Furthermore, a ship is searchable under the pvp raid function as are encounter missions. What this means is you can be attacked just like your recruit dispatchs. Recruit skills in efficiency reduces the dispatch timer and yield skill increases the rewards.
you are making those map unlockings way harder than they have to be. go left or right with the mouse while watching the match bar, once you found the highest point the bar will go while going left and right with the mouse, than go up and down. keep doing this until it matches. way easier and faster than just guessing.
Sorry to ruin your parade but your grinding too hard. I get over 50mil pan gala and maybe half that in corp points a week.. takes maybe a few hours a week to get that much (simply completing the 20 rep quests should give you enough gala to do it) You didnt cover the 4:1 exchange rate on business. You also dont know about the alpha component pvp trick either. Rss are not the limiting factor, neither is time.. its actually the daily pan gala and corp rss purchase limits.. We would love to purchase more rss and boosts but we get capped out and need to wait for reset. In a few months you will realise what im talking about. Youll figure it out on your own. It takes maybe 2-3hrs to keep a whole weeks que of skills. I now spend all my time pvping for fun rather than grinding like that. Otherwise a good intro to the game and how to do daily events.
