EDIT: To the dumbass who sent me the PM asking me how I know that you can ignore the status of the planet and still find elements when the planet is said to be Depleted, I know because I kept looking and I'm not stupid. Here is your proof jackass: http://i688.photobucket.com/albums/vv245/killallthepandas/Randy%20Pix/MassEff...

What's the point of the advanced scanner upgrade?

[dfoots]

@nikhildhall1 There really is no point for it. Just go to the planets that have the mineral you need, mine em, and keep on truckin'.

@dfoots advanced scanner is 2 times faster than stock scanner.

[dfoots]

@tsunami770 I know, but with the guides and knowing where the good shit is, it's best, IMO, to just skip upgrading it entirely and collect the shit you need when you need/want it. I ultimately decided against it my first time playing through and have never used/suggested it since then. To each their own.

[dfoots]

@NeutralNegotiator Oh, you're one of those. I'll just move on.

[dufferemail2008]

Whoever made this video. Thanks. I was stuck.

If this is in ME3 I'm breaking the disc/refunding it off Origin. That way no one else will waste their money.

@dfoots My spelling being correct or incorrect has no influence over wether my argument is valid or not. I’m sure you know that.

English is not my native language so small mistakes should be understandable and accepted. I’m not sure how this would lower my credibility.

My point was still very clear. You were an ass to belittle me instead of replying to the contents of my comment.
