The Polaris are miners. Don't try to mine or steal their ore deposits.

You can, however, mine surface rocks in Polaris territory. I've been doing it for the last half hour while searching for teluropods and spiders to kill, to get my faction high enough to trade with them. As much as I hate spiders, they come in groups so they are fast XP/faction.

Also, it's not too hard to get Talon back up if you don't let it get too low.

Leveling is pretty fast. I hit level 25 in just a couple hours on normal mode. Hard is a little slower and can take half a day.

Wiping out every Zirax POI usually gets you to level 25 on normal.

A couple hours, eh? *snicker*

Yep, hour 1 is rushing to the mine deposits and getting ~100 copper/silicon, ~200 iron, and just enough exp for a SV. Hour 2 is split between making a SV and making ammo while raiding easy POIs. Hour 3 is spent killing the drone base and finishing any remaining POIs.

Only exception is the snow planet. That one, the drone base can take an extra hour or two if I mess up and get hit by a lucky missile.
