silurius

Hilarious, I totally forgot that I already had the equipment I needed to prospect (thought it was activated by clicking on a device mapping). I also forgot that there are level 0-1 mobs very near the starting station, bursting with credits, so to speak. Dumb assumption about the mission requirements, sorry about that, was thinking too linearly and was reluctant to just fly around and experiment. Slowly, it's all coming back now.

Apologies in advance if I missed a similar thread, but I thought I'd create this one for Extreme Newb questions, such as the following (mine): How the heck does one complete the first JE quest from Shin-Tzu Li if s/he doesn't have enough credits to buy prospecting equipment?
