*To get the Orca as fast as possible (With the M class) Is that you mine the materials Iridrium, Carbon, And Silicate and transfer them to your warehouse. use 7-8K on the rarer materials (With the exception of uranium) and get 22K more credits. then, sell the M class for it's standard 40K. with the extra 22K, you will have enough to buy all the uranium you need and enough money for the manufacturing fee. Tested and done in 1.6 Hours. | *To get the Orca as fast as possible (With the M class) Is that you mine the materials Iridrium, Carbon, And Silicate and transfer them to your warehouse. use 7-8K on the rarer materials (With the exception of uranium) and get 22K more credits. then, sell the M class for it's standard 40K. with the extra 22K, you will have enough to buy all the uranium you need and enough money for the manufacturing fee.

Additionally, this is ''not'' a recommended strategy if you do not have a back-up or replacement Miner that is relatively on par or better than the mining efficiency of the [[M Class]]. It is advised instead to attempt to find the occasional large ore chunks of uranium around [[Frion I]] if it is level 3, in a public server; or otherwise exchange salvaged [[Ores and Materials|Plasma Batteries]] for uranium upstairs of terminal D in [[Mega Base]].) | ||
