What is the best multitool weapon ?

gleaming stream
#

The one you like most and upgrade it

#

All weapons are viable once upgraded, it just comes down to personal preference

sturdy quarry
#

Anything but Blaze Javelin

grave venture
sturdy quarry
#

When you charge a weapon for as long as you charge blaze javelin it should instakill most things

#

Excluding higher tier sentinels

grave venture
#

You donโ€™t need to charge it for it to be good tho

#

And mine does instakill most things

#

And if it doesnโ€™t they get stunned long enough for me to kill them

sturdy quarry
#

Stun is all it has going for it

young flicker
#

The green plasma thing is good

vagrant linden
#

would that be something to keep or better try getting all stats close to max? if thats even possible

vagrant linden
#

the module

stone beacon
#

if it's the upgrade, you'll get a feel for what "max stats" are the more you buy them and install them to check their stats

#

I'm sure there's a database somewhere with the stats for each upgrade, but that's how i'd judge

stone beacon
vagrant linden
#

so more a decision of which i prefer to max and which i see as secondary

What are the staffs best used for? Mining or fighting?

stone beacon

#

Ooooo

Staves have the same stats as Sentinel MTs, so high damage potential compared to other types

also why does it look photoshopped ๐Ÿ’€

Because the actual pic had waaay more reflection on it than intended, that's all I did to it though.

And no, these are definitely for Mining. Sentinel/Staff for damage

Not sure if this is the place to post this, but I just got a very beneficial glitch where my weapons master just... keeps giving me this A rank multitool... I've scrapped it a ton of times, maxed my current multitool and have made like 40k nanites and about 200mil units from selling the parts ๐Ÿคฏ

amber pawn
#

@severe geode As in, you can repeatedly claim it immediately?

I'm stacking like 90 multitool expansion modules so that I can immediately max out an S class staff and Atlantid multitool once I find the ones I like ๐Ÿ˜†

@severe geode Actually, I'm a day 1 player with save edit capability on PS4 - doesnt matter whether it works for me, but I make it my business to know the answers to all the questions, including every glitch and exploit that currently works. ๐Ÿ˜„

#

so how does one find multitools? will they always be in a shop? like for example the ones in nms coor exchange how do you find those?

boreal obsidian
#

So for example, the multitool in the image above is at the vendor on that systems space station, and unless they saved somewhere else in the system and reloaded, then that is the multitool you will see when going there. If the multitool has a planet name and coordinates then you need to go to that shop terminal, not for the style of multitool but for the level. The cabinet you can buy standard multitools from will always be the same level, so a cabinet with an S tier tool will always have one, and are normally the ones shared. The complex part for normal multitools is that, depending on where you load into the system the cabinets will use a different model of tool. So, if there is a system with a planet and moon, you will see one type of tool in the cabinets, and if you reload on the planet or moon you will get a different model to show up, and those will be consistent depending on what location you load in from. There are other places to find multitools but I think I rambled on enough on that alone to make more questions than answers.

Me and my scrappy staff

deep matrix
#

This is a bug I just found out. Selecting a piece before the dialog closes will add that piece to the head. This will increase the amount of items that can be put as a head to a total of 19. However, I am not sure of the consequences, or if this will brick your game.

amber pawn
#

@deep matrix I'm reasonably certain the only issue will be a few dozen characters' worth of save data bloat - I've attempted to edit Staffs with multiple overlapping parts already, the game ignored all but the 1st descriptor for each part. What you have potentially discovered is a way to get at an 8th staff variant per cabinet.
I'm curious what'll happen when you assemble a staff without a head - visually, you'll see the holographic head, but Class/SC slots?

deep matrix
#

the extra 12

amber pawn
#

Interesting, very cool find

deep matrix
#

I dont believe anyone hasnt found about this

#

its impossible

#

first s

amber pawn
#

@deep matrix You can make staffs 2/3rds holographic, and though it's rather pointless, you can fandangle a staff built of the same part in all 3 slots XD

deep matrix
#

its unique

amber pawn
#

Once you assemble the staff, theres no way to know that its 3 of the same part - you achieve the same effect more easily by forcing 3 of the same type of object into all 3 slots

#

@deep matrix

#

I only meant the latter part was pointless lol

sturdy hull
#

So I've spent all this time to map a random S spacestation cabinet just to find 8 boring bultitools

deep matrix
#

Gotta keep trying on various systems

sturdy hull
deep matrix
amber pawn
#

Scan Harmonizer (A) and Polyphonic Core - the former allows you to detect the Autophage +11% Scan Radius, the latter can be charged with Atlantideum and used in place of Echo Locator to have a Harmonic Camp marked. @sturdy hull

#

thanks

#

I really need to start this autophage thing

deep matrix
amber pawn
#

@deep matrix I didnt see any way to get wrong items into all 3 slots, that's what would be needed for full holo.

deep matrix
#

visual bug that goes away on client restart, maybe

#

will need testing

amber pawn
#

The glitch functions based on selecting legal choices too quickly, theres no way around needing 1 appropriate item in at least 1 slot

If anyone has'em plus the portal code. Please send atlantid weapons with the red core please. Thank you.

Oops, sry, the 2nd one isnt red @twin vault

#

whats with all the holographic yellow staffs? is that a glitch?

amber pawn
#

@foggy vault Yeah, a UI glitch that allows you to force the wrong type of part into a Staff slot, so the default hologram shows through for them

foggy vault
#

strange

#

Something very strange happening

#

I've taken a friend to an s class cabinet found in Reddit

#

But

#

We see different classes: A and B

This is kinda strange

Aren't cabinets supposed to be fixed classes?

What do you mean?

grave venture
#

Fighting, exploring, gathering resources

glossy ibex
#

All three are equally fun because all three can be done in equal parts at random points

#

While you're exploring you're usually either Gathering resources as well or you end up in a fight for one reason or another

grave venture
#

Welp that complicates things

glossy ibex
#

How so?

grave venture
#

Itโ€™s really only about picking something that fits your gameplay and looks cool

glossy ibex
#

Well I would assume the one with the best DP and the best scan range combo would be you know the thing you want to go for

glossy ibex
#

Just from looking at all of those which would you say is best? @grave venture

grave venture
#

First one

glossy ibex
#

Ty

#

Does damage potential also help with mining?

amber pawn
#

@glossy ibex Youre asking for a comparison of apples and oranges, its obvious from those stats that youre not stripping tech to compare MTs on a level playing field, so any answer youve gotten is a complete dice roll.

glossy ibex
#

But after running a bit more of a complete test this morning I discovered that that is a faulty way to do it because they might all have the same base damage potential but they all react differently to the same attachment

#

For example putting the bolt caster on each one of those for most of them generated the same result but for some of them there was a wildly different range

#

For example you saw the list up there but here's the new list with just the bolt caster as the damage potential modifier

#

Ozone auditor mark XI (organic pistol):

#

I will admit some of them in the original list were not actually stripped down for whatever reason

amber pawn
#

@glossy ibex The other issue is you're misidentifying multitool size as MT type. I can tell just by looking, and if I had to guess, I'd say Whispers otA is a Sentinel MT.

#

The other thing you should be comparing between is natural S Class results - aside from Royal/Sentinel/Atlantid, all MT base damage stats can be predicted based on whether theyre natural or upgraded S

glossy ibex
#

Well ill be doing some reclassifying based off that chart

warm furnace
#

I made a new staff.

#

It looks kinda raggedy like my original staff but that one was class C, this one is Class A

glossy ibex
#

God i genuinely cant WAIT to get to that

#

I need this but with the Red orb instead

#

so are +14s the best damage ups I can get from a neutron cannon s tier upgrade?

or is there a super rare +15% damage?

Sometimes i party with no flyer. Wait i need a gun that looks like a party flyer

glossy ibex
#

What are these wacky looking multi-tools that almost look like scrap metal welded together?

glossy ibex
twin vault
#

Iouno

glossy ibex
#

What?

twin vault
#

Think it's suppose to be weapons "corrupted" by the Autophages' atlantidium.

#

Either that or weapons created by Atlas itself due to the way they resemble it's design through the gun and the orbs themselves much like how the Atlas changes shape too.

glossy ibex
#

Oh

glossy ibex
#

Is that weird that I feel bad for decommissioning multi-tools?

#

I mean more than likely I'm going to replace them with the staff and the atlantid ones once I actually get to them

#

I think I might have gotten a bit more than buzzed

i feel bad for anything i scrap :/

Scrap the damn thing ๐Ÿ˜‰

yea i do this often, but when it's some old stuff i used for a bit, it hurt to salvage

#

MT or ship, dosen't matter

heady pond

I salvaged a sentinel ship i really liked today so i could get a Christmas themed shuttle ready for my Christmas tree base that Iโ€™ll show ON CHRISTMAS day, still sad but worth it

Now replace ship with multitool so it adheres to channel SteamHappy

I will see about putting in a neutron cannon. Generally, I have been underwhelmed by most of the weapons.

#

Other than the Pulse Spitter.

supple flame
#

@warm furnace i just tried installin on mine as i dont use boltcaster. No diff in numbers as far as i can see

lethal lily
#

Pulse spitter is hard to aim, doesn't have the best damage output, but neutron cannon hits like a truck and has great AOE

warm furnace
#

But I should have at least one high-powered weapons.

Mine is pulse an plasma launcher

I've found that with upgrade modules the Pulse Spitter works quite well.

You do not need to change to fit the meta

Aye i enjoy 160 round in a couple of seconds sprayin out

warm furnace
#

You also have to use it like any semiautomatic weapon - short bursts.

lethal lily

Neutron cannon is undeniably the best change my mind

odd fox

I literally just hold down the fire button and watch the sentinels shit themselves in fear

#

So about stavesโ€ฆit looks like there are certain combinations of staff components that will result in higher-quality staves? Itโ€™s not just an aesthetics thing.

#

I seem to have figured out one of these combinations by accident.

amber pawn
#

@warm furnace No, it has nothing to do with parts "combination". Its specifically whatevers in the Head slot + location that governs Class

#

In a regulated system, any natural S Staff will have max damage. In Outlaw, natural S Staff automatically has minimum damage. Upgraded to S, 1 tier above minimum.

obtuse bane
#

So in summary donโ€™t hunt for staves in outlaw systems (if you care about stats at all). Noted โœ๏ธ

amber pawn
#

@obtuse bane Yeah, when I was explaining it to bk, without thinking I said, "In Outlaw systems, you get f%#&ed from both ends," and honestly, I can't think of a more perfect way to describe MT hunting there. XD

warm furnace
#

So I guess natural S staff heads are hard to find.

obtuse bane
#

Itโ€™s quite uncommon. Itโ€™s the combination of staff head and location. So you can go from camp to camp on the same planet testing all the heads for example. I have found only 2 S so far and I didnโ€™t like the aspect. Finally chose a A class I liked and upgraded it

stone beacon
#

Took me a while but I figured it out and tbh you donโ€™t need anything other than a staff

warm furnace
stone beacon
warm furnace

#

Just max out the inventory and max out your favorite weapon + things like mining, scanning, special upgrades

warm furnace
stone beacon
#

Then decided on a blue radiant staff

#

Looks dope as hell

stone beacon
#

If you donโ€™t care thatโ€™s fine but mine has 107k

lethal lily
#

Numbers like that are only possible with natural S with good SC layouts

warm furnace
#

Well I only have a Pulse Spitter in there and a not very boosted Neutron Cannon

#

And itโ€™s not S-class yet.

lethal lily
#

I think the best damage you could get with that tool at S is probably 15-20k

warm furnace
#

Iโ€™ll get an S-class staff some time.

#

I am running around looking for Dissonant planets where the biggest Harmonic Camps seem to be.

#

Partly because I want to find one to put a base on.

lethal lily
#

If you're okay with picking one up, I got this one that's insane

warm furnace
#

Also because I want to learn all the Autophage words.

#

That looks like some kind of radiant staff head.

#

It looks familiar. I might have seen it somewhere.

lethal lily
lethal lily
warm furnace
#

I mean I have a radiant staff head but with different colors I think.

lethal lily
#

Ah

warm furnace
#

I will keep an eye out for one with colors like that.

lethal lily
#

Yeah they're nice colors

warm furnace
#

The Harmonic Camps on Dissonant worlds seem to have a lot of things so I will come across it sooner or later.

#

Iโ€™m looking at those Dissonant worlds for other reasons anyway so Iโ€™m fine searching this way.

#

And yes I will remember to stick to regulated systems.

lethal lily
#

Yeah that would be sucky to find an S in outlaw accidentally ๐Ÿ˜‚

warm furnace
#

I may save my nanites to upgrade my Sentinel Interceptor. My Exotic ship is my primary craft right now but the weapon damage doesnโ€™t go as high as Iโ€™d like.

warm furnace
#

But either way, I would like to be able to teleport around freely from whatever base I build on a Dissonant world in whatever system, and Outlaw systems, well, you know.

warm furnace
lethal lily
warm furnace
#

Does the head of the staff determine the color of the rest of the staff? Thatโ€™s what it seems like.

stone beacon
#

A good infra knife setup will do over 80k damage on anything

gleaming stream

#

And both the Exotic and Interceptor ships already have the same number of equipment and cargo slots.

#

Sentinel ships have way more variety with designs and color schemes

#

Imo they also look cooler

Can I get more damage?

#

Hard to say, one thing for sure

Those Forbidden modules dont do anything

Since they work only with the Boltcaster

Yeah slots are good

But I don't know if you can get more out of X class modules

Or are just the S class ones busted

I'm on mobile with limited signal coverage so that's the best I can do now

amber pawn
#

@gleaming stream Expedition buffs are a different thing - those increased the rate of near-max rolls, not the max values

warm furnace
#

So, I have found an โ€œUnbrokenโ€ Sentinel tool in a pillar, but itโ€™s the Experimental or Royal ones that are really good right?

amber pawn
#

@warm furnace Depends on what youre looking for - Royal = Experimental for stats,with the difference being royal can be class upgraded with a shot at max damage at S.

#

Aliens are more rare, but no longer hold the top damage spot, that goes to natural S Staves from regulated systems, or Sentinel MT seeds that hit max S. (same whether upgraded or natural)

deep matrix
#

Seems like Atlantid has the same issue as Staff MTs concerning Damage Potential

#

Im looking right now for a S class Atlantid MT on a 3*

amber pawn
#

@deep matrix No, Atlantid/Sentinel/Royal operate on different principles. With those, natural vs upgraded S is irrelevant, whether an MT has max damage is seedlocked to each model.

#

Only thing you know for sure is a light grey Atlantid will never hit max

#

And btw, standard for comparison is stripped to unupgraded mining tech, not "with double the mining tech where possible". Comparisons require common ground, not exceptions

Atlantids focus on mining while staff/sentinels focus on damage and royals/experimentals focus on scanning range (iirc)

warm furnace
gleaming stream
#

Game will display portal glyphs for it in the Wonders catalogue

amber pawn
#

@vagrant linden Certainly faster, not necessarily better

vagrant linden
#

Well on S it seems easier to get max mining speed with the other 3 stats close to max too, at least going by some seeds shown in wiki

amber pawn
#

Thats why its faster, near-max seeds are about 30x as common for S Class as they are on the X roll table.

vagrant linden
#

On that part it's kinda annoying multitools show scanner range and damage potential but no mining potential

amber pawn
#

I'm more annoyed that it shows scan potential at all, the most pointless stat in the game - practically, it caps at 1000,but idgaf how far away scan pulse lights up oxygen flowers, lol. (the only thing scan stat relates to)

vagrant linden
#

At least if i compare to when i worked on my ship weapon where i got all max but than again there you only rolled 3 stats which probably also made it easier

amber pawn
#

There are 894 X Class seeds that roll near/max stats for all 4.... there are 100,000 seeds total.

vagrant linden
#

Sounds like it would be easier looking for someone who knows some of the seeds and use savegame editor xD

#

I think for mining laser i probably swap to S for faster result

obtuse bane
#

Thatโ€™s still a lot of modules if you buy them on vanilla/normal/no duping

amber pawn
#

Indeed. Attempting to roll a full X-Class kit in pure vanilla should be on the AMA's checklist for indications of self-harming behaviours. ๐Ÿ˜†

#

(a joke, but if you do that, you may be a tad masochistic - nothing wrong with that though, in moderation ๐Ÿ˜„ )

obtuse bane
#

In fact I did duped X modules to test exactly that at some point in the past and it took me TONS of them to finally roll out something close to max on all stats, or at least those inretesting to me. So my experience feels like the theoretical calculation is spot on.

mint wing
#

Thankfuly max stats rolls are not needed , there is not as big of diffrence and they mostly boost your ego and "big numbas" acomplishment feel.

obtuse bane
#

Completely agree. Honestly in NMS unless you play PD or PvP, even S class is irrelevant, you can play quite ok with C class stuff. But many find upgrading their equipment a motivation to play and once you reach half god power why not pushing it to Zeus level ๐Ÿ˜‚ And others even like math, statistics and probabilities so it can be satisfying to understand and prove/push everything. Each to his own, Iโ€™m not judging ๐Ÿ‘

mint wing
#

Yeah. thats why min maxing is imo very end game content.

Min maxing is silly

Serious question: how many players realize you don't need a Harmonic Camp to assemble a Staff MT? You don't need a Dissonant planet. You don't need a Dissonant system.

#

if it was like in the screen it was then clear that there can't be a "good" layout on that planet

amber pawn
#

@lofty scaffold It's simple - SC slots when acquired are bound to cabinet. When upgraded theyre bound to MT seed - so every C you found shared 3 slots, every B 2 slots, A 1 slot, and natural S none except by coincidence.

You came to the wrong conclusion by misinterpreting the evidence

For the S class

amber pawn
#

And yeah, only the Head slot affects stats where Staff parts are concerned; the terminal location is the other influencing factor.

sturdy hull
amber pawn
#

@sturdy hull Base damage on Staves is literally just dependent on how/where S Class was acquired. 483.3 for nat S regulated, 416.7 for nat S outlaw, 433.3 for anything upgraded to S

#

And yes, each different part placed in Head slot for a Staff will yield a different tech layout, and possibly Class.

sturdy hull
#

Well, that's interesting. Would you prefer the staff over the sentinel rifle?

amber pawn
#

@sturdy hullYes, simply for the guaranteed max base damage - with Sentinel MTs, natural vs upgraded to S is irrelevant, base stats are completely seedlocked, same goes for Atlantids and Royals. So there's a better-than-even chance that any natural S Sentinel MT with perfect SC layout wont have seedlocked max base damage.

Let me confirm before I dedicate time to finding that multi tool, all monoliths have same Atlantis multi tools, and I can reroll it by saving and reloading, and each planet has the same as the next in the same system?

amber pawn
#

@vernal elk Not even close. Every single pool in every system will have a different Atlantid model seed - cosmetic duplicates will occur occasionally, but each seed will generate different procgen name + specific bonus rolls

obtuse bane
#

To get the tool from planet A, save/reload on planet A. Then go to any monolith in that system to get it. To get the tool from planet B save/reload on planet B then go to any monolith in that system etc. What matters is the pool you load in memory, not the place where you go get it (in the same system, since warping to another system reloads the pool as well).

#

Same principle than traditional multi tools except there is only one tool per pool.

@karmic blade, type is always Personal preference at the end of the day, you could be using the base multitool you start new with and upgrade that as you play and it can still dominate with the correct gear and layout. The first image I have provided will assist in laying out the best for each weapon/tool to get the most out of their use, do this and you can use the starting tool and not have much trouble, disregarding SC of course.

For specifics tho, damage go for sentinel, staff and alien, for mining go for atlantid, and pistols.

amber pawn
#

@lapis crane No, Royals have the best bonus for a pointless stat, Sentinels are best all arounders these days, highest damage and their Mining bonus may be trash, but dual base techs puts them ahead of all but Atlantids in that area.

Scanner on Multitool can show markers of nearby waypoints

Basically we are saying the same thing ๐Ÿค

That is from the C key scan

#

That is one of the "pickup" icons that game can show if you hit the C key scan

It is possible to detect waypoints that way and game will put this marker on them

@tepid summit Uhh, every pillar on a planet is the same - you reloaded onplanet, I believe, which switched the active MT pool, so you wont see your white and gold one during this session.

Wait reloading switches the pool-? I thought it was like starships where it's always the same

#

if so, my bad 'XD

amber pawn
#

@tepid summit Yeah, each planet has an independent pool, as does the Space Station. (Loading into system anywhere outside planetary envelopes loads the SS pool)

#

^^ This pic is outdated, just used to illustrate the lesson

tepid summit
#

Ok that makes a lot more sense

#

so just to make sure I'm understanding- basically the first time (white and gold one) since I loaded in outside the specific planet, I got that one from the space station's pool technically, but then when I reloaded on that planet, I got the planet specific pool (the red and gray one)?

#

Man this game is still confusing/surprising me XDD

Does royal mt scanning bonus affects units geting from scans or it just modules and sc slots

Has anyone figured out how many different colors can a staff spawn per planet? @amber pawn

amber pawn
#

@sturdy hull Depending on the size of the planet and water:land ratio, anywhere from hundreds to thousands of combinations. Every single Beacon and Freighter Wreck has a terminal for Staff assembly.

Look like size matters after all

might anyone know an S class full white or white and black crystal/radiant staff?

amber pawn
#

@vernal sparrow A full mono staff is a rarity to begin with, let alone in S Class in colours that have only 1 or 2 shades on the entire palette

vernal sparrow
#

okay, but thats not what i asked for

vernal sparrow
#

yea, no luck

sturdy hull
#

Tried asking in the NMSCE discord maybe?

vernal sparrow
#

oh, i didnt know one existed. Thanks!

amber pawn
#

@vernal sparrow "full white" = mono-coloured, last I heard. White with black crystal is on the rarer side of that line.

vernal sparrow
#

im not looking for a black crystal necessarily. Just anything with a combo of white and black, just white or just black

amber pawn
#

I understand, but because there's only 2 shades of white and 1 black across one palette of 60 colours, and MTs draw from several palettes, any combination of white/black only and natural S Class and specific parts would be a unicorn find, the thing would be famous lol.

are you trying to lower my spirits or something?

#

I just found a yellow havoc s class

#

Gonna post it on Reddit sometime

#

just think about how many people find incredible things and never post it anywhere

amber pawn

# vernal sparrow THANK YOU SO MUCH! Looks beautiful!

I wasn't trying to lower your spirits, I was simply telling you that what you wanted & @S-Class was a completely unrealistic expectation of finding - I knew someone else who wasn't busy would take a look sooner or later, thanks @sturdy hull ๐Ÿ™‚

sturdy hull
#

Found it on my long research for the best staff. I guess I'll have to find it my own, I'm looking for a white-teal/blue/azure S class

amber pawn
#

I actually found an all white radiant myself, but my screenshot of the planetary coords glitched and snapped the shot at the wrong moment - I wasnt about to try and find that same Beacon again, even for me that could take days, without some luck.

#

(It may have been A, but pretty sure B - could go find the shot and look, but seems pointless since thats all I can do - look, lol)

sturdy hull
#

Do you find hunting s staff more difficult/longer than normal mts?

#

I'm not really understanding what the staff is for. An alien mt is enough to easily destroy a full Sentinel combat. Wtf should I need a weapon like 5 times stronger for?

sturdy hull
amber pawn
# sturdy hull Do you find hunting s staff more difficult/longer than normal mts?

Hunting for a specific head at S Class, I wouldnt bother with. Sentinel MTs can hit the same Damage and are actually better for Mining, with seedlocked bonus rolls, meaning you can hunt for a model that upgrades to S max damage, and then beyond that, for a B Class cabinet that has complementary SC slots to its A and S upgrade ones.
But there are nineteen Staff variations per terminal - 1 for every single part, because you can force Core/Pole parts into the Head slot. So if one is hunting any S Staff, the overall time:S Class opportunities ratio decimates any other MT scouting method.

#

Max base for Alien is 433.3, Sentinel/Staff 483.3

sturdy hull
#

What do you mean by force core/pole parts?

#

Well, excellent explanation

sturdy hull
#

Am I doing it right?

amber pawn
#

@sturdy hull Put 1 of every staff part in suit, copies in storage. That way you dont need to worry about moving your cursor, just tapping confirm on the same spot for any slot twice before it closes - you only have 1 of the 1st, so you get a 2nd that can be forced automatically in its place for 2nd click.

#

If you have copies, theyll just stack together instead

sturdy hull
amber pawn
#

@sturdy hull For a holo staff? Yes. To check all 19 Class/Slot/SC variants? Not so much. XD

sturdy hull
amber pawn
#

@sturdy hull Fill the Pole slot. Then force a Core into Head slot. It's literally just a matter of controlling which slot the 2nd part youre choosing gets forced into

sturdy hull
#

Ok

#

Trying now

#

And this what will actually do?

amber pawn
#

The Head Slot gets added to the cabinet seed to produce the colour + stat combinations. 19 items total, 19 Staff variations.

sturdy hull
#

Nice

sturdy hull
#

Sorry for being goofy I'm not really getting it :/

#

Is this some kinda right? @amber pawn

amber pawn
#

@sturdy hull Yep! That's one of the 6 Poles in the Head slot ๐Ÿ™‚

#

So if you go to assemble, itll be different name and layout than any of the regular heads

sturdy hull
amber pawn
#

@sturdy hull It looks for a viable object in the descriptors list, and when it doesnt find one, defaults to holo head - thats the downside, 8 unique head variants plus 11 more that look the same as #8.

#

So I have found a place for an S-class voltaic staff

#

This is in Eissentam galaxy, in a crashed freighter.

#

You can also assemble Class A reclaimed head staves here.

Anyone got a good multi tool set up? Iโ€™m using pulse spitter with 4 connected sc slots, got the dmg to 31k, but not sure what tools/upgrade/other weps I should slot into it

amber pawn

#

If the goal is all in one, Mining gear, Scanning, Terrain Manipulator, Survey Device, Polyphonic Core.

#

Players may hate the terrain editing mechanics for bases, but it's basically the most powerful tool in the game for exploration - you can dig holes and restore them while standing inside to instantly yank yourself to the surface above you, as well as cut away/create terrain to allow summoning of ships/exocraft.

Youโ€™ll need to actually provide details for what you want

Lol sorry tired

# pulsar charm

Trying to find both the name and the location of this multi tool

#

I've also got this one in my personal finds, would need to figure out galaxy, but is a natural C Class - not gonna do that unless you actually want it, lol.

#

Anyone found white and yellow or black and yellow parts for the staff?
Preferably runic parts

Use this portal code

And itโ€™s in the space stations multi tool vendor case

You need to go to s dissociate planet and shoot these corrupted sentient machines that are mining until you get a echo location (I think) and it should take you to a camp you need to complete your main campaign tho

Youโ€™ll have to do the Autophage missions to get access to the staff and thereโ€™ll be two mission options you can do, I believe itโ€™s the audience with the Autophage one thatโ€™ll get you your first staff
Once youโ€™ve finished the Autophage storyline, you can use the harmonic thing to locate Autophage camps on any world, dissonant planets arenโ€™t the only worlds with these camps,
As long as thereโ€™s a race or the system isnโ€™t empty
Thereโ€™ll be Autophages

Just follow this UpArrow matey, once all steps are done, the initial autophage quest (they who returned) starts, it will go through everything from dissonant planets, staves, Atlantid multitools and the new race.

This is what I use any suggestions on upgrades?

amber pawn
#

Youre better off "boxing" upgrades to maximize synergy, as opposed to setting them up in "rows".

covert trench
#

Thanks for that is there a particular reason for this?

#

And well thank you for the suggestion

amber pawn
#

Because synergy is a bonus that can stack up to 4 times, so in a line, 2 mods get 2 bonuses, in a box, all 4 get 2 bonuses

covert trench
#

Ahhhh thanks bro

amber pawn
#

YW ๐Ÿ™‚

@covert trench Supercharge =/= Synergy. SC slots will be bordered with fluctuating colour, synergy is solid colour based on tech type.

covert trench
amber pawn
#

yes,the former being the result of SC and the latter being synergy
