Planing is always the most painful part
Exactly I’m not really creative so this is painful
I am not creative either so i know the pain
I’m fed up with my basic builds
I will probably go ship hunting now. Have fun building and u hope that planning doesnt take too long
Hopefully
Can high class multi tools do they spawn in clumps because I found a s class next to another s class system here is the other s class system thanks to whoever found it before me
Oh jest luck
@verbal crest Luck, but it does follow economy probability. So in a T3 system like that, ~1 in 50 cabinets/camps/terminals/monoliths will be S Class. (Its a procgen roll, so locations are fixed)
Got this, S class on the planet of the weekend quicksilver mission. Not exactly my color, but decent. About 450 units from the NPC and ship.
@golden lynx Staff colour+class is cabinet-dependent - "planet pools" do not apply, so similarly to Bioships, there are thousands of potential Staff combos per system.
Understood, thanks. In this game save, I just finished the Artemis Path so I could do the staff missions. I don't want to search thousands of combos. I'm OK with this neon blue and neon pink S class given that it was only about my fifth try for one.
First, you have to complete the "main story", the complete Artemis Path mission.
A ways. You are maybe a third of the way through it - just a guess.

Whooo go chip power
Hot take: runic and radiant>>
How much real currency are you paying per hour? I dont think you realize what youre asking someone to volunteer for, that very well may run to over 100hrs worth of searching.
Only asking a question
I wasnt trying to be mean, I was actually trying to avoid assaulting you with a wall of math to explain why youd be unlikely to get any responses - apologies for making you feel defensive.
i love those parts tbh
Reclaimed + Havoc are my faves, lol
Highest possible damage potential on a pulse spitter?
Anyone trading for tool slots?
I have a quick question, anyone know of a terminal that can make a orange or black Havoc staff in Euclid or Hilbert? (Pref A class or above, I know oddly specific :X)
Where did you get that?
Kikogallr galaxy
Make sure you include planetary coordinates, Lat/long coordinates allow players to find the exact multitool you are posting, which by the looks of it, is what you intend.
You can find the lat/long coordinates either bottom left when you are in your ship and within 2000u of the planets atmosphere it will be on a panel. Or Top right when you are on foot and in your visor. Or too left when in an exocraft.
I made it with the new quest items
Good morning! I traveled to that location because I love the look of the rifle, but it wasn't in the station. Is it in another system over or its not on a station? Sort of new to the collab thing in NMS, thank you for your time!
Sentinel Multitool. T2 Korvax. Euclid. At about -21.61, -169.29
@frigid vine Did you load into game onplanet?
huh
@frigid vine Every planet and the space station has its own pool of MTs, where you load into the system determines the specific MT you find in each cabinet.
If you Portalled to that planet, when you arrived the space station pool was loaded in. Saving and reloading at the camp would load that planet's pool and show a different MT
@frigid vine
There are only 2 Sentinel MT looks, so each pool insystem will be 1 or the other, but the names and stats would be different on all of em
I warped there
space station pool was loaded
literally unless you load session within a given planet's atmosphere, you see the space station pool
(Teleporting/Portalling behaves differently playing oldgen on PS4/XB/possibly Switch)
Is black possible as a color for the staffs?
o thanks
Hopefully this little beauty will turn into something real good once I S rank it. As it stands it already vaporizes all resources without much issue
Near-black, but its a rare texture as far as Ive seen
Awesome thanks, I wanted to make sure I wasn’t hunting for nothing
As example, Nunmelting here is Purple + Near-Black
Ohhhhhh ok I see
Is it just me or do supercharge slots on atlantid multitools change from player to player? I followed coordinates, found a tool that looks identical to that which was advertised, but sc and stats were different
Planetary coordinates? Was it natural S Class?
It was C and supposed to have square sc slots when fully upgraded, ended up having them all over the place. But it was identical physically
There can be hundreds of Monoliths on 1 planet, and the "cabinet location" is what governs the location of SC slots already present on an MT when acquired.
So, at least 1 slot in that 2x2 is directly dependent on getting yours from the same monolith
Oh I was on the exact monolith. What I've discovered is that atlantid multitools change their stats and sc whenever you make a restore point (like exiting ship on a station).
Only appearance remains
Uhhh, if that were the case, why do the SC slots on my tech never seem to change? I always make restore points and Ive not had that problem
My day to day MT is an Atlantid
I'm not sure. That appears to be only for atlantid ones found in monoliths. Maybe it's only the first restore point, I don't know... But the next atlantid I hunted was the correct one, after I made sure to create a restore point
Atlantids cant be found elsewhere than monoliths, but I think I understand your meaning - if it makes you feel better, I'm actually aware of what youre talking about, but I've only seen it affect ships til now. I've actually been trying to find a way to trigger it intentionally - last time I tried, I know I didnt get it working consistently, maybe thisll help me. 🙂
¯_(ツ)_/¯
It's long annoyed me that natural S Class ship bonus rolls are RNG, it makes it near-impossible to target a high Core Maneuver Squid and get max Damage/Shield bonuses - I dont care about SC slots because on purchased ships theyre fixed, but the bonus rolls are what I believe subject to the same thing, defaulting to seedlocked values. Which, in the case of Atlantids, apparently gives you the seedlocked SC layout. 🙂
Hell, that's potentially useful for any MT type - lol, so many things to work on, so few hours in a day XD
Can you actually "reroll" a crashed interceptor to get better stats on it? I have a good model I might want to get S class directly
No, interceptor bonus rolls are always seedlocked - theres never any way to get random bonus rolls
Well, that means I won't have to spend hours reolling it then.
All crashed ships’ stats are seedlocked, aren’t they?
Yep, I just try to avoid overwhelming newer-seeming players with information they didnt ask for, lol.
I hope I don’t seem new 😂
When's the last time you recall me not giving you a thorough explanation on something and didnt answer follow-up questions with perhaps a little more info than necessary? If that doesn't tell you the answer to that, nothing will. 😉
(As if I could ever get away with calling someone with more Exotic finds than I myself have "new" ) 😛
((PPS - I know, Yuca, I meant even after subtracting the ones you scouted using mods lol.))
Before mods? Hundreds indeed. Lol that was the time of the freighter battles, the best exotic chasing method back then. Long gone.
Yeah, I've likely only scouted about 200, its because there's so much work for so little variation - that "best method" never applied to PS4 😛
True. Funny difference it worked only on PC.
True. Hilarious, in light of the fact that PS4 players can spawn Multitools for planets that don't exist, while PC players can't.
(Did D'Harhan just drag a 40-minute tangent into starships back!? Hell yeah!)
A starship is just a flying multitool 😂
Imagine if you jest have to install wings and kaboom it's a starship and staffs are exotics lol
@verbal crest I could likely turn my squad into flying Staves - if not their entire ships, then definitely the pilots at least lol
Its quittich lol
So are you saying we need to hunt down a golden ball Exotic and capture it to win?
dibs on Hufflepuff! We're taking the cup this year, slowpokes!! zoooooooooop!!
i got the tool thanks heaps
Someone got cool looking alien multi tool cords
I have an A class weapon with two supercharged slots. Kind of want two weapons though, first for scanning and minind.. and a second weapon for combat purposes.
Is that the ideal way to go?
Hey where did you get that staff?
I went to random systems to buy the parts
It’s the radiant set
But do you have the cords to that specific color?
The mods are what I put on
Ohhhh yeah sorry
I can send you a picture when I’m on
Yeah if you can that would be greatly appreciated
Yeah no worries I’ll dm you the stuff for it soon
right multitool color but wrong class..
Np buddy
yo does anyone have cords for a purple staff
People usually go with Atlantid for mining and staff for combat
Sentinel shares max damage with Staff - most do prefer the latter, but I personally have multiple combat MTs for different setups, amd it woulda taken months to find different staves to set those up. XD
Anyone by chance know of a location in Euclid or Hilbert that can craft a A or S class staff in Orange (For the havoc pieces?) :>
Ive got one but it has radiant head 😢
My main is pretty goated (especially now that I got a staff and have been switching back and forth) wish I could remember where I got it but it was definitely a sentinel pillar
i'd say that for now you're fine - remember that we can always store installed tech/upgrade modules to move them to another multitool 🙂
true
it took me 3 hrs to find this thing
time to deck it out, and have fun 🙂
fr fr
ill still try to find a better purple staff
but thats probly gona be impossible
You can use nanites to upgrade staff class like any other MT, fyi.
oh staff can also be upgraded?
just a "normal" multitool when it comes to everything else after assembly
Yup. Mine was a C when I found it. I prioritized the colors and just upgraded it.
oh
its soo hard to find a good looking staff
that matches ur outfit
took me what..maybe 5 or 6 camps to find mine
why u flexin
Yeah, and mine's just for aesthetics mainly. I have a suped up alien MT for pew pew.
can get 50k nanites in 30min or so, if you got the units to burn or the multitool to dispatch sentinels with ease
YO holy shi the staff has solid supercharged slots
4 supercharged slots
4 supercharged slots is good right
see? sometimes it's worth to upgrade just to gamble and come out on top
all s-class gear has access to 4 supercharged slots
but! one thing though - it's not everytime that you class upgrade and immediately get all 4 revealed (sometimes more tech slots are needed to reveal the remaining sc slots, so you got lucky there)
but eh anyway my char finally looks cool
thx for the copeium
I'm in the radiant club myself.
DAMMMMMMMMMMMMM
i wish i could fomd a great purple staff
with radiant
Yeah, I grinded for a full weekend trying for a green radiant with black/grey staff. Gave up. I got the glyphs for this one here.
i found a glyps for a purple grey
went there
it for somereason was green abd blue

ISTR color is dependent on both the terminal and the headpiece you use.
i went to the terminal they said where the area title was legit purple S rank raident staff
put in the right head
and it was green and blue
Ouch
yep
i found like 2 online for a purple and grey staff
1 was this that was mis information
2nd dint have cords
anyone got glyphs for an staff assembly with the color white and blue?
it has to be that crystal hat
blue crystal and white machine parts
hello
am supposed to interact with the portal for the story mission but its covered with a mountain that i cant dig into!
Wrong channel, post in #nms-questions
oups i hought thats the help channel i misread
Where you find this I've been wanting one like this for a while
I wonder if its noticable
found this mf in my star system, be class but has three super charged slots near eavhtother
Found this if someone is interestted
FYI putting the Personal Forcefield in SC slot doesn't do anything
You are better off putting some mining beam related module in there
Like the Optical Drill for maximum resources mined
I havent actually clocked it, but Id bet that I could set up an Atlantid with speed layout thatd net higher results than an Optidrill layout on a Pistol. XD
Im not a big fan of the extra yield post-4.0. Hard not to feel like it used to actually grant a full 50% yield bonus, across everything. They disabled its function for all the things that it did a better job for than its own described purpose. XD
If crop yields being enhanced by lasers is wrong, then I don't care to be right!!
Ok, but my original point stands
There is no point in SCing the Personal Forcefield
Agreed 🙂
you got glyphs?
I'm so sorry I forgot to check the glyphs
what I got
Reload your restore point
think my game glitched cause cant access it anymore
I'm gonna see if I can find it again, i found a multitool before naturally called the "Silent force Silencer"
it was very quiet to use
Why can an S class multi tool have 300 damage and a C class have 4,000? Both rifle types
It’s most likely due to the weapon and modules you have applied to that C class compared to the S.
Damage Potential measures most powerful tech on MTs.
It’s when I’m looking at them in the cases before purchase. Sorry forgot to mention that
My comment still applies, it will be due to weapon tech you have installed in your C class.
It’s a pity we can’t see the core value like on ships with the scanner
I really gotta find my bird symbol atlas mt soon but finding this symbol is a pain in the ass
@covert totem MT damage reflects most powerful tech installed only, so an S Class with Mining Beam will be hundreds unless upgraded, and a C Class with Scatter Blaster can be thousands
You say that as if we see proper stats prior to owning ships 😛
For the record, I looked at every single screenshot I have of dark Atlantids, and found every Glyph except 1 (bird). I'm sure it exists, because both 0 and 2 do, but it may just be a high rarity like you suspect.
Look at the bright side - if I hadnt found a zero MT, my answer woulda been "it likely doesnt exist"
I did find one but it was white and gold which is not the one I’m looking for
It’s real…
Yeah, who wants to go to that much effort for inferior stats? lol
BUT RARE…
Idc about stats I’m here for fashion B)
Red and blue is my mains and idc about the rest besides colour and symbol
Fine, just replace "stats" with "colours", fixed. 😛
Bdjsjd
Yes, I realize inferior becomes subjective in that context. 😉
I don’t say it like that. I know you have to own the ship to see it stats but it’s easy to do, to take the picture and reload your previous save just after. Can’t do that for MTs!
I knew what you meant, I simply didn't care to assume everyone else would. 😉
Meant for that to be in ships
What are some good staff combos i should try using the relic and radiant heads (my fave head pieces)
Check pins for staff part sets
Radiant/Radiant/Runic or Radiant/Battery/Runic
My current is that
I still remember the Throngler… seriously, who had that? I need to know
the throngler lol
Where at??
dreams of this one day
Your pulse spitter will perform better if the core weapon module is placed in a SC slot with the appropriate S class modules adjacent.
Also would be more beneficial to supercharge one of the procedural modules instead of the impact igniter.
Try to group your modules more in a box or rectangle instead of lines, you get better Adjacency bonus with modules grouped up this way instead of a line.
Just some suggestions 
I wanna see people's best staff just because 😀
Glyphs?
This mine 
Nice
Should I expect to find these kinds of multi-tools in single player?
Or at least be able to construct them through gaining tech.
Of course, for staves you get a walkthrough of creating them during the autophage questline which will only start after you complete the main story (Artemis path) and lift the seal to a harmonic camp.
Alright! It's going to be a while as I avoid death.
Don’t we all avoid death 🤣
Most of us anyway
I test the limits like Beaker from the Muppets. shrug
In all seriousness though, I am challenging myself to play on Permadeath with everything set high in difficulty except I can have x/500 per slot. I think the lowest is x/250.
Death is not an option in the game.
Nice I recently started a new perma last week, I miss PD it’s so fun
But I miss it when it was more unforgiving
I guess the developers changed it up? I would like it to be excruciatingly unforgiving unless on a goldilocks planet because that seems most reasonable. lol
I guess I like the fun challenge of fearing death and not knowing what lies around the next corner. Making sure I am all stocked up to move on in case there's nothing in the next location for me.
They made things that previously made the experience feel more realistic and in a way you had to be more cautious, I’m now 5 hrs in and I haven’t a worry about dying.
Previously simply falling from a high enough height would kill you. Just hope perma doesn’t get hit with the “baby mode” stick anymore.
I guess looking for an "Old School Permadeath" mod will be my first one.
Have you tried a derelict freighter? That was absolutely scary with a few hours PD save, for me. I could not get to the end. Had to rest rest as I went a few time to “no shield” battling the minions 😰
On the new perma or old. Old perma these were scary AF, on my new one no I completely forgot will try one tonight 🤓
Got it thanks!!
@full pecan , @pulsar charm
here are the glyphs and coordinats
planet is called Licissu in the eissentam galaxie
Let us know. That was maybe at the beginning of 2023(?)
Hi question please - What us the relation between space station and minor settlement multitools? ---> If I find an S class multi tool in a space station, will there be S class multi tools at minor settlements in that same system? Also, will the same multi tool be at the space station and minor settlement depending on what planet you reload restore point on? ...or what is important to know lol
@covert totem Each planet in a system, as well as the station, has its own pool of 2-4 MTs. Whichever pool is currently loaded determines what models are going to spawn in cabinets system-wide.
The thing to understand is that Class isnt based directly on the tool, its dependent on the cabinet, so saving and reloading on a different planet will load a different pool, but the cabinet will still spawn a model in the same Class
Got it thanks. So I understand the MT rank is determined by the cabinet. Per your point - Does that mean if I restore point on Planet #1, the multi tool in the space station will be different than the multi tool at a minor settlement? Also, I forget......is it by system where the system MT will be either S&A, A&B, or B&C?
Okay, you're conflating two things you shouldn't. If you reload at the space station, some minor settlement cabinets will have the same model as the space station cabinet, some wont, theyll have other model/s belonging to the space station pool. If you reload on a planet, the models in all the cabinets, including the space station one, will have different models in the same classes, belonging to that planet's pool.
I understand thank you. My last question for now is; how do i know i'm in an S class MT system? Is it that the space station cabinet is S or A class? Or what is the easiest way to find a system with S class cabinets? Thank you!!!
Any 3 star economy system or outlaw system can have and will have higher percentages of s class items. Just gotta keep raiding cabinets until you find the MT you want
Yeah, as long as it's not Abandoned/T1, S Class can be found
Thank you!
Thank you!!!
Is this a good S class experimental or is there a better one that I do not know about?
There are upgrade technologies installed so hard to tell on statistics displayed. But any S class experimental will give you once upgraded excellent scanning results (units for scanning stuff) and range. Not the best model possible but once fully upgraded largely good enough. Experimental is fair but not the best option for a gun/combat though.
@obtuse bane Ah, I see. I had thought the scanner range had some play with the units for scanning. So I guess besides that, what multitool would be nice to obtain?
Depends what’s the use you want? Tools are specialized either in combat, mining or scanning. There is no “jack of all trade” models although any MT fully upgraded will be good at everything. But since we can have multiple tools, some players prefer to have highly specialized ones. On PC it is really easy to have keyboard shortcuts and switch in an instant from one to the other. On other platforms I am not sure.
@obtuse bane Sorry for the late reply. I kinda wanna look into mining or scanning rn since I feel like combat will be a bit later throughout my playthrough. That's pretty cool to hear that any fully MT will be good at everything. Definitely love the PC shortcuts.
The name "Needler" takes me back to the halo days
@obtuse bane @rustic sierra Scan stat has zero bearing on discovery rewards
Literally affects only the range on Scan Pulse
So no seeing markers in Visor farther away, either.
where can i find a list of seeds for royal MTs? i finally got one, but i dont like the color so i want to put a seed in to change it
The creative hub has some
!creativehublink
Lemme post my ships (im missing one tho)
Good to have this precision. So when I put scanning upgrades, it will give the same improvements in units gained than on any other type of MT, correct?
So @rustic sierra based on this, your best bet is to get an S class Atlantid to maximize your mining yield! Check the pinned table for details #nms-multitools message
Yep, and as soon as Scan hits 1000.0, youve capped the range on Scan Pulse, which literally any type can manage with 3 S mods. In conclusion, Scan bonus is stupid and can be completely ignored lol.
Awesome. Thank you for the advice guys!
What a find!
super cute
anntyone got staff seeds??
@wary horizon Wouldnt really help you much if they did, just go look up one with the colours you want and edit its part descriptors
For those who asked about whether it's possible to get Staff colours that match across all parts, proof that you can at least this close. 😄
Looking for black staff
Anyone have it?
This is what my inventory looks like right when I’m about to change multi tools
I need a ATLANTIDEUM multitool that fits my character
This makes my OCD hurt
I know it’s so unorganized
🫠
How does one find a Staff?
You make it
Is it a quest?
Follow the autophage questline and that introduces you to making them.

What happened? Please use the #contact-us form to reach out to the rest of the team as well, we will take appropriate actions.
I think it's better to use the !modhelp command

Then any online mod could answer
okay, didn't knew this command was a thing
It is, indeed.

Anyone seen one of the new sentinel tools with a dinosaur glyph
I cant mine it?
Hey all! New to the Atlantis MT hunt. What are some rarer combos for Atlantids I should be looking out for?
Also do the normal S class hunting rules apply? I.E. Best systems are 3 ⭐️ economy for S class
I just want 1 with decent sc slots and good mining bonus
Yes
whats a good weapon to go for a multitool?
The one you like most.
i dont like the scatter, and the rest are kinda even for me
so im wondering what people think is good to go for
I like the pulse spitter
Neutron cannon 💯
Bam bam bam bam bam
Is there a registry of atlas multitool locations?
You can find several in the history of this thread. Or check the albums on the wiki. Many Civs have catalogues. Eisvana’s is still too small for this category but I’m working on it. You can also check the Reddit NMSGE. Plenty of options!
If you want full auto, go pulse spitter, good damage but eats through ammo like crazy
If u any something hitscan with more ammo efficiency, go for boltcaster (it’s arguably one of the most powerful weapons but you need to have good upgrades to build it)
Neutron cannon for good per shot damage and a small aoe on impact, probably the easiest of the 3 to build as u just need one tech and 3 good s class upgrades
I’m currently using the pulse spitter, it’s good if you can get over the projectile travel time
With the max damage% sentinel MT and max stats upgrades and all the techs, it can hit 36k + dmg potential, which is not bad
Melts walkers
@median swift Boltcaster isnt hitscan
Wait, apologies, I didnt have the proper definition of the term
just out of curiosity, anyone know of a glowing green and black/grey runic head staff? or at least something similar, green with a muted color. I don't particularly care for the class, I have the nanites for upgrading, but I've been looking around for ages and this is as close as I've gotten. The body has a slight blue tint to it sadly.
purple is also fine if it takes up one of the black regions, as long as it's not JUST purple
You could save edit the colours
I could, but im not very into save editing personally
though i've been thinking of it as a last option
Staff MTs already come set up for it, you literally just need to go into raw JSON and edit some colour values.
I know how to, i more just don't enjoy it as much. I personally like finding it, or at least going somewhere and getting it in game, not just editing some values in a JSON yknow?
Just found this S-class tool on pirate space station. It's in Euclid.
Question... I've seen that Experimental is a type, but no idea what defines them visually, I've played enough to where I've seen all other kinds, but think I've just passed some of these by without noticing
What about them would make me be like "OH BOY, I FOUND ONE"?
Now that I am looking, I think this might be one?
Yup
Idk they all kinda look the same in design
after seeing that one you will know if you find the pistol version pretty easily
ye I’m new to the game still haven’t found one yet
Still not as cool as my alien tools
Haven’t seen one of those either
If you are lookin for them, you know the tricks, like making sure to reload restore points on new planets?
nope
There are good guides on the details, but long story short, if you are looking for new MTs at all, each planet has a set MT
But to make sure it loads, youll want to get out of your ship on that planet to set a restore point, and reload it. That will load that planets MT into the systems boxes
Alright
Planet pools are 2-4 standard models, +1 Royal, Sentinel, and Atlantid where applicable.
Pistol, Rifle, Experimental, Rifle = Standard, yeah, because they can come from the same cabinets
is the starter pistol experimental ?
i'd say this is pretty solid
I think this chart needs update with aded staffs , sentinel and monolith mt.
Put another laser on it from one of the harmonic camp mining tools if you can, it doubles the power of the mining laser because it uses them both
The chart was made to help tell MT types apart - when people start regularly confusing Sentinel/Atlantid/Staff MTs for other types, I'll happily update it. 🙂
Should I sc my scanner
I have it sc rn and idk if it's good or if I should sc something else
? SC ?
Supercharge
I don't trust you
Damage upgrades
You didn't know what sc meant
Acronym
If you supercharge your scanner it gives you hella unitsb
Sc the (forgot the name) one that gives you more minerals for mining or if you dont care about that just go for full weapon sc
Yes neutron cannon can give you 181k potential dmg on normal
Dmg is good
Would shoot down freighter with that thing if i could
This pains me
Neutron has no reload either
Yeah but not much ammo
It does
You can be shooting for about 15 minutes straight w/o having to reload
Which is cheap as hell
I hate acronyms
Why would you even wanna sc the scanner?
Idk
My past self did so idk if it's good or not
Or should I SC the cool down booster for the scanner
I'm late late game
Min max if you have nothing better to do
I do have stuff better to do
Does SC ING this decrease recharge time more
Also does supercharging the mining laser itself do anything
Donno
Also I never figured out what the yellow bar means
All i got is looking at the stats the game shows me i'm ps4
Just found this, is there anything better than this ?
Definitely is, to quote DHW “The best upgrade seed for X Scanner has +44% Radius,+10910% Fauna,+10980% Flora,+10955% Mineral”
This is one of mine on a random save.
god dayum, nice one
@drifting roost
No stickers in this channel please
i wonder what the probability is of getting that and if it changes according to location or planet etc.
Those seed rolls are not dependent on location or planet at all. Iirc there are a little over 850 X Class seeds that roll near or max stats for all 4 stats. I can’t remember the amount of total seeds it’s probably in the 100k mark.
So if “luck” is on ur side you’ll get a good roll within 100 rolls.
That specific roll quoted is 1 in 100,000 upgrade seeds, but for one that simply hits >10,800% across the board, 1 in 1000 sounds about right, from what I recall. 🙂
Should I put 10 mil in black market modifications
yo, where I can find info on what colors the reclaimed head can come in? I haven't seen black or purple as the primary yet, do these spawn?
Not black, but grey or purple, sure - the 2 rarest colours though, lol
Love the colours, they look bootyfull
Thanks! I’m loving it too
Ya would you happen to have the glyphs matey? Otherwise we won’t be able to go and get it.
Is 400 base on scanning good on a multi tool? That’s without anything on it.
glyphs please?
I just turned on my pc before work and the screenshot that saved when using the in game camera didn’t save the glyphs… I’ll have a look when I’m on tonight and see if I can find it
Would be fantastic matey, alternatively you can just add the specific planet you found the tool on (which I assume is Unutsvil XI?) to your wonders list, once added hover over the planet in your wonders list and it will provide the glyphs for you, it will display like this.
Hi i wanted to ask whats the best weapon for multittoool, i managed to get 23k dmg with my new staff using boltcaster. But im not sure, if its the best choice
This saves you having to go to the planet
Best choice is whatever works for you, PvE combat is relatively rudimentary upgrade a weapon you like, as long as you put in the upgrades the weapon will be effective. I personally like the pulse spitter as I find that more enjoyable.
But If you want a weapon that literally just gives you a pretty big number then a neutron cannon with S class modules will do it.
yea i saw that neutron cannon is hyped duo to "big numbers" but range is kinda meh..., just wanted to make sure if there is some kind of "overpowered" weapon like you have infra-knife on ships...
which is best by far from anything
Bolt caster is fine, but I personally prefer the pulse spitter, upgrade that and it melts pretty much everything.
Again personal preference as I said PvE combat is pretty easy so any weapon if upgraded will work
Good shout, I’ll do this when I get home
Can’t wait 😛
@neat crane @heady pond @hollow nova
thought id repost and tag the people that were interested with the stuff for it
Yessir
Scan stat is basically irrelevant, as the sole thing it affects is how far away scan pulse lights up oxygen/sodium/deuterium flowers
thanks love!
Found a royal MT at a pillar, it was orange/silver A class. I had a few sentinel boundary maps so went hunting and found one in the 3rd system.
So I understand we can get a different color version from a planet in the same system? I used a map to a pillar at another planet but it did not have it. Not sure if it's not spawning because I accepted the orange one or something about reloading our auto save before we try, maybe I messed it up?
I was thrilled to find one, especially A class but orange/silver is probably my least desired color combo.
Anyone know how finding these royal multi tools work? I took another save to the planet I found the orange and silver, and the royal, A class was there at the pillar but it was yellow and silver. So just random colors?
You need to reload on a different planet, but check a Pillar on the same planet
Each planet + space station has its own "pool" of MTs, including their own Royals - you only ever see 1 pool loaded systemwide at the same time. And whether or not a Pillar has royals is dependent on specific planet, ie if 1 pillar onplanet spawns royals, all pillars onplanet will, and if 1 doesnt, none onplanet will.
@stone jackal Make sense?
sort of makes sense.
Ok so on this other save, I went to the planet I found the orange one, it's now yellow silver, not a keeper for me so I want to try thr other planets and or station.
I didn't take the yellow, so if I reload the restore point, then travel to the other planet, a royal should be there at the pillar?
I know I'm going to mess this up again.
No, mark the pillar with a save beacon, reload elsewhere, and come back
Where you load into game determines what MT spawns in the same cabinet
save beacon, go to any other planet, reload and come back and it willbe a different color?
Not guaranteed to be a different colour, but it will be a different seed. There's 10 potential colour variations, so 90% chance itll be a different colour.
I reloaded the manual save before I read to travel to another planet, I put a save beacon down, then checked the MT for the heck of it and now it's blue
I didn't make it to another planet to reload though, just reloaded the one after I landed and got out of the ship at that pillar
I probably should just take the blue but I would like the gold trim, red and gold in particular. Not sure what to do now.
Go save and reload on each planet, coming back to check whats in the pillar each time. Space station, too, save and reload there.
Ok, I think I getting it now
That's a relief, because I was running out of ways to explain it. 🙂
I know, I think I'm the village idiot. I saw an explanation online and messed it up.
So when I first warped into this system I came in on another planet, and I think had a restore point there, so when I came to this planet, it was the yellow one at first, so yellow must be from that planets spawn, and blue from the actual planet this pillar is at.
Unless youre playing on PS4/XB1, arriving insystem via Portal sets the pool to Space Station - unless you saved and reloaded after arriving, thats likely the model you saw
Yep I did. So I can still go to the space station, reload then return for a different color
This is starting to make sense too, on my other save when I first found it, I again came from messing around on a different planet in the system, so that planet must be the orange/silver spawn
Ok, went to the space station, reloaded came back and it's the orange/silver so that's that one. Does a reload on a moon also change the pool?
Nice SC slot layout. I wonder if its L , T or I layout
Sadly I couldn't check at the time as I think it was 50k to S class
Yes its 50k for S
Thanks for the help @amber pawn. Moons apparently do not change the MT pool so the last planet I reloaded on netted me the white/grey and silver which I took. I'll find a gold trim out there somewhere, red and gold hopefully. I know there's coordinates for them out there but it's fun hunting.
Ayy I got one like that
Actually incorrect, you just happened across an edge case that only occurs in about 1% of systems 😆
Moons have their own pools, but in certain cases Prime Planet/Moon/s will spawn the same Royal seeds as Space Station & Planet 1 insystem
Here's the location of the Royal multi-tool A class, Euclid galaxy. Choices are orange, blue, yellow, white depending which planet you reload on, all with the silver trim.
Coordinates to the sentinel pillar. The planet is falsely named Orange/Silver Royal MT but that is actually the portal/SS variety. That planet is the Blue/Silver.
Its T layout
You can make good mining tool from it
Bröther I’m not seeing it
What do you see?
Just the camp
Do you see the autophage synthesis terminal?
Na
Have you started the actual autophage questline? You need to get to a specific part that allows you to get these terminals to show.
I have not

@mint brook thanks matey picked up the staff 
Found a new atlantid with an Atlas scope. Seems pretty uncommon?
can you only get that type from the sentinel things?
Yes,only at sentinel pillars and not very common
No worries!
On the last screen is it the glyph for this planet ? Can WE go on it in normal mod ? (No expedition)
Yes it will be the same.
Thank’s
All good just be mindful the post didn’t describe what pool the multitool is in so you may need to reload at station or on the planet to get the tool.
I could probably go there tonight for ya and check it out if need be
Hi, very sorry, but when i enter the glyph i arrived in another planet, look
You aren’t in the correct galaxy, the post details that it is in Euclid, you are in Eissentam.
lol we all have our moments, just glad there was an easy solution to this 
Tnx
Question on the sentinel pillars, my understanding is if one does not offer a Royal multi-tool after reloading our save then none on that planet will have a Royal. Does that go for all the planets in that system? Or can 1 planet not offer the Royal but another can?
went there and got a drill, is there any prerequisite to those staves?
Each planet with Pillars is an independent chance, the planet seed rolls against a 15% pass rate to spawn Royals
(a procgen roll, so its locked to location)
Ok thanks, so I need to try 1 pillar in each of the planets in a system to rule out that system.
I'm sticking with 3 star wealthy systems too, not sure if they have a better chance to have a Royal pillar or not though.
I used 2 of my maps and both times I was 12 seconds away from a pillar. I think I'm flying over them before they can render. I'm trying to go slow but it's not easy. I'm on PS5 but still a delay in rendering.
Found out that I need to finish the Artemis quest and the purge quest line with the laylaspe sentinel quest
If you loook in #nms-questions they should give a better answer, ima noob
No - you need to complete Artemis, Atlas is a separate questline
A weird looking multi tool
i got it from a sentinel spire and idk if i should keep it or scrap it XD
How is its damage so high as a c 1347 and the one above,gravity blaster is a sentinel a with only 472?
I would def keep it and see how hi it goes
where did you get it
so it is a sentinel, just an odd one
still crazy damage value
The damage is high because it has a boltcaster weapon installed on it. The other multitool would be similar with it installed too.
some nice color schemes imo if anyone else also likes them. Sucks one of them is a C class though
Yes as stated before you need to complete the Artemis questline which is the conclusion of the mission “the purge” completion is when you get the mission “new beginnings” you do not need to complete “trace of metal” that is the old criteria and no longer required

Familiarise yourself with this.
You need to include the coordinates (glyphs) mate otherwise players will be unable to find this.
my bad. the glyphs went away when I took the screenshot
Yeah Im on the purge quest right now
the dps stat is calculated from the highest dps weapon on the tool, this one came with a weapon installed
Thanks, I didnt realize this was a 'thing' now i know!
for an s class... thats trash should mention this is on space station
It’s added damage
White is original stats and yellow is what you get from upgrades
Not sure if it applies to other multi tools but the staffs all have the same stats no matter the head if u take out all the weapons / and are the same class.
Oh i meant that rifle
Haven’t tried it with the other types of multi tools though.
Yea but I’m assuming the rifles also do that.
Like with same stats if there’s nothing on them*
The only difference I’m seeing from the different multi tools are where the supercharge slots are
how does getting the staves work? deactivating the seal / getting the normal one just seems to give me those drills, even though i did the staff-mission already (and have one)
do i just need to assemble a new staff?
U can buy most if not all the staff parts from the same machine u use to assemble the staff
ok but the point is to get the staff, it's not the multi-tool, but the assembly machine, right?
The assembly machine is found near autophage locations. So the multi tool tech u have that searches for that is basically used for u to get to that machine
let me rephrase the question: for the staff multitool, should i take what's in the multitool-box, or assemble a new staff as has been taught in the autophage questline?
Multi tool box?
box, looks like the one on a space station or anywhere else, to the left of the that interactable box in harmonic camps, the box which lets you find interceptor ships
Oh
But those aren’t staffs are they?
I haven’t checked those in a while so not sure if they included staffs to be in those
no and that's what i'm confused about. it's a multitool-box, so logically, a multi-tool shoud be in there
Well the only way I know how to get staffs are from assembling them. The other multi tools like rifles and pistols can be obtained as normal.
From my understanding the practicality of staffs and the other multi tools are the same, so there’s no difference when ur using them. The only difference I saw so far is purely aesthetics (since ur holding them when ur running, standing etc)
it's the looks and the base-stats, so making a weapon-only staff makes sense, since it has a high base damage
It’s just that the method of getting the staffs are different bc u assemble them using 3 different parts (u can buy them from the assembly machine) and the class type is basically rng (C class on one assembly machine can be an A class on another)
I tested the base stats for staffs and they are all the same given that they are the same class and with no equipment on them (since things like bolt caster will affect the damage potential)
I haven’t compared them to other multi tools though. So can’t say if the base stats of staffs and rifles / pistols are different
an S-staff can have 3k, what fire just posted has 450 damage, as an example. so the different multitools are geared towards different uses
i don't know if this is a good roll or not
can someone tell me
But there are different equipments on them
just compare the images, you'll see the white (base) bar on the staff is a whole lot higher than the white bar on ie a pistol
An A class staff I assembled yesterday had 7k damage potential but there were weapons on them
and yet, you won't get a pistol anywhere NEAR 7k
Yea so I’m not sure if the base stats are different for pistols, but for staffs they are definitely the same
I’ll test it out later today
https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Multi-Tool#Type click on expand and it shows you base stats
Well if the staffs are higher in damage potential as u said then u should probably go for them. They look nice too. Just need to do quests for the autophage so u can get the currency to buy the parts
I’m on my phone right now so figuring that out is giving me a headache lol but I’ll definitely check and see
yea fandom on mobile is a pain. i wish the wiki would move elsewhere. anywhere, just not fandom.
i don't have the coords for the pillar but this is the glyphs for the planet
That’s why I usually check things myself and test them. Way more fun too imo
Gives me something to do since base building is not my strong point
Anyone interested in a glyph code real quick? wont show up whilst im on space station but can hop down to one of the planets, lovely red and black experimental
yeah nvm theres not a portal
what's the planet / coords for the purple one?
@ionic pivot
me no read good. dammit
Lol it’s also my bad
Didn’t realize the screenshots didn’t give the glyphs
Planet coords are there too
found this mt after accidentally deleting my old one
@languid current staves do not all have the same stats but I can see where you may be experiencing this, Base damage on Staves is 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 initial stats are determined by a combination of which terminal you use to assemble it, and the staff head you provide. The other parts are cosmetic.
@ionic pivot you need to start the autophage questline otherwise staff assembly will not be available for you or make much sense. To start the questline you need to complete the main storyline (Artemis path) up until the mission “new beginnings” you also need to lift the seal to a harmonic camp, from there just warp into a system without triggering a freighter battle and you’ll get a transmission that triggers the mission “they who returned” staff assembly has nothing to do with the multitool cabinet you claim sentinel MT from.
You can definitely get a pistol multitool to 7k and higher, just make sure you are judging stats off base stats, remove all weapon modules and ensure nothing is in a SC slot, otherwise you start to think base and total damage potential are the same, which it appears has happened here.
If you want, here are the class bonuses for each MT so you can deduce which is better at what specific task.
Ah thank you for this, I just picked up my first staff from the quest (loved it) and wanted to figure out if it could replace my tricked-out rifle.
All good, a common mistake people always make when comparing a new multitool they are looking to purchase with their current one, make sure to compare base stats on both. This chart can also help you identify what tool is best for the job when making that decision.
Is there any way of knowing what the base stats are on any given tool beyond looking at the bars? To me it’s not very clear, but I’ve only just come back to the game after a looong break so I’m still acclimatising to all the new features.
Not really, what you can do is make a save uninstall tech ready to transfer to a new multitool, take note of base stats on ur current, purchase the multitool you want to compare stats then uninstall all tech and move tech out of SC then compare that tools base, if you find the new tool is better in terms of base stats then keep it, if you don’t just reload restore point.
At the end of the day all that matters is your personal preference, first and foremost do you like the design and colours of the tool? And let that be what influences your decision
Because regardless some seemingly crap looking C class rifle can end up being more than enough to obliterate Sentinels with upgraded weapons.
Ah ok. I’ve only been looking on one planet since I was just going for the color schemes and just compared them that way
Photo mode, bottom left displays glyphs.
i have questions on staff
how do i get a second staff cuz i don't like the design
it's also C so not like i can't replace it easily lol
Same way you got the first, locate an autophage synthesis terminal.
Once located you can just make one with parts you purchase.
purchase? you can buy them?
Same terminal allows you to use void motes to purchase staff parts.
Then you assemble the staff the same way as previously acquired
wtf is a void mote XD
A physical item you receive primarily from assisting autophage NPC with missions
How much of the autophage storyline have you played?
All of this is introduced in that storyline
i have my first staff but i don't have any void motes
or maybe i do? can you show me the icon
You would have gotten them from doing missions with the autophage during the mission They Who Returned.
i would have to check my containers for that but i dont' remember it
Make sure to check, you have completed that mission and assembled the staff so you can do missions for void motes, and just purchase parts and assemble the exact same way
it is likely i scrapped or sold them XD
Probably best to find out what an item does before scraping or selling 😂
so good news i deffinetly never had any XD
i got one from harmonic scrap and it said "new item added to catalogue"
Ah I thought the mission rewards motes, or maybe only after the initial staff creation
seems only after
i got two parts i like but hate the head, heading to a new system
Different cabinet will give you different results, no need to head to a new system.
now you tell me XD
You never asked 😂
i've been to 5 camps and it's ALL radiant head like plz XD
is the color of the staff what class it is?
cuz this staff looks great other then not being white
Damn after 5 you should have gotten other head parts by now.
i did end up buying the radiant head and it makes the staff green
i just wish it was white and not orange
but i like it
i also don't really care if it's not S on craft lol
Go to a different terminal and see if it provides the colour you want.
do different assemply points give different color?
i kinda already did assemble on it ;3;
like i like this look
Yes, terminal and head changes colour, if you don’t like the colours at one terminal just go to a new one, no need to change systems.
if i decline it do i keep my parts or did i mess up
You keep em, it just takes you back to assembly
oh thank goodness ;3;
Different terminal also offers different assortment of parts you can buy
yeah i saw that part
i'm guessing if i got C at one terminal it's C at all of them?
Colour and class is cabinet dependent plus the head you use, so no they all won’t be C
lol one gave me orange on orange, another gave me green on green
can white even be a base color XD
yeah fourth base is what i want
that doesn't invalidate my point of an S-class staff spawning having higher damage stats than an S-class rifle for example. the table even shows that the damage stats are higher
I never said your point was invalid? Also that table shows class bonus, not core.
ah. too early to think then
To be exact I was correcting you saying “you won’t get a pistol anywhere near 7k” when you definitely can.
Then further providing info on comparing base stats not the displayed stat when tech is installed.
Yurwurgha galaxy Sentinel Pillar at +5.18, +10.41 - First Royal I've found in 1000 hours of play!
i think you can get those from harmonic camps ?
Found a Royal pillar S class, really good supercharge slot layout too.
Here's the address, coordinates to the pillar and the color options depending on which planet you make a restore point and reload on. I named the planets their corresponding colors. Also I put a base and a red save point at the pillar. The SS /portal and 1 of the planets had duplicate color combos.
one is golden, the other silver
Damn, S class and that SC layout, nice find
Those are the different varieties, I did not show the dups. There's 6 planets + SS/portal.
I was hoping for a red/gold but not to be, I took the Blue/Gold although the white/gray and silver was a close 2nd for me.
In the case of Multitools, Class bonus is Core - the same basic tech has the same damage value regardless of what type of MT its on
I just got one as well
yeah for some reason it didnt show any glyphs in photo mode
the only way i could make this like a necron staff
beam and matter shooter
i made it higher
S-rifle type found in pirate space station in Euclid, address in the second pic. This system also has an S-solar sail (shown) and an Exotic ship.
i couldnt get the custom staff parts for a while so i stuck with the default and now i dont wanna switch 💀
just get parts, build a staff and transfer all of the tech to the new one
is it more effective to have it in lines like that?
i thought it was better to have them touching the base equipment
Squares / rectangles / boxes are a better layout than lines
The more modules have adjacent sides with each other, the better
how do i do that?
How do you unlock the staff?

Thank you
just unistal the tech, the game tell you what to press to do that
you'll get archived modules ready to be installed onto the new staff
So I went to an s class gliff location and followed instructions I thought in the video he said that the location will create an s class staff using original staff head. Any suggestions here ?
What’s the problem?
Everytime I create the staff it’s not an s class
But according to that video it’s based on the location
That’s a Lowe’s ad mate
Are you using the same head part as detailed in the actual video? Does the video specify that it is an S or do they increase class to display SC slots?
Are you at the correct autophage camp?
I’m at the correct auto phage camp but I’m not using the original staff head they said so I’ll try that thanks !
Erm who thinks they have the coolest multi-tool just wanna start a convo
Would be a good idea, as well as the specific terminal/cabinet affects colour, class, SC and stats the head determines the same, core and base do not have any influence.
Purely subjective, but let’s be honest I love my chippy tool.
Powered by potato chip.

How rare are s class multi tools in stations
@cosmic edge reasonably
So the easiest way is just to upgrade?
Yup
Dam 😭
Could always, temporarily, switch settings to free purchases. Upgrade tool, change settings back
Or find mould and farm nanites
That works as well
found something simmilar, exept A class and dark red instead of blue. dont know the co-ords though...
S class staff with salvaged aerator head (white and red color)
Euclid, -15.49, -172.87
Do we have some kind of poster / infographic that shows the different parts the Atlas / Atlantid MTs can spawn with?
Like ex. the white + gold ones can have that chip thing or an "eyeball"
The black and red ones can have an Atlas shape or a black hole, etc
@amber pawn maybe you came across such a resource?
I dont think there is any parts chart for atlantid/atlas/monolith mt
I haven't, where have you already looked? I'm happy to check around, but no point in repeating work youve already put in lol
Here in pins and over at creative and sharing hub in customizer-guides and atlas-mt channels
This post is an attempt to isolate all the sights, unsure whether 100% offhand
https://www.reddit.com/r/NMSCoordinateExchange/s/MVCNUwHR0F
So yeah, definitely slim pickins, lol
Yeah looks a bit incomplete
Since the red ones can have the Atlas / diamond shape
Like what null posted earlier on
So if you havent come across any more complete guide, it means none exists
Thanks for taking your time
There is such a MT with Atlas
It was black with red Atlast 'figure' on top
I just forgot where I saw it...
Eissentam, that's for sure
Maybe we make one…
It's a symmetrical octahedron, not Atlas-shaped
Or if you mean the other one, that's too elongated
English please😭
Well I'll be honest, I dont strictly need one, since all i wanted to know if a specific combination even was possible
That said, I could maim the game into replacing standard MT spawns with Atlas MT spawns
That way I could go into a space station, make a photo of the Atlas MT in the cabinet, repeat for all the planets in the system
That would give the pool of the given system faster than running for monoliths and doing the short quest
That would be some data to start drawing conclusions
🥹 you’ve saved me so much time
I know I’m a bit late, but do you still know where you got that staff? I’m looking for one that colour scheme. (Doesn’t bother me if it’s not s class to start with)
There is no planet for gray and silver
Idk wether its a coincidence or not but on the way back from the blue-gold planet i found an alien melody thing
S Class or C class? Also, Euclid?
C class, stats r after upgraded to S. And yes, Euclid
Thanks. How much is it to upgrade?
dont rly know, i use memory fragments
Okay, I'll ask in help channel. Thanks, really good one
glad u liked it 😄 though there r better staves stat-wise, look in Hero2U channel or ask me for a link
I like the design. I don't combat so the stats not so important
Just looking for that teal shard
😄 hope u enjoy it then
If I can find some memory fragments to upgrade. I'm sure nanites would be too expensive from C to S
Happy to give ya memory fragments Class if you want, or ask around in #nms-lfg-or-trades as you won’t find those in game.
I'm not subbed to ps plus atm so can't receive 🥲
This is from leviathan expedition right?
Correct
Oh, I might have 1 lying around. It was a reward yes? 🤞
Iirc it wasn’t a reward at all, wasn’t even used but added
Claimed at the quicksilver guy?
No, none of the memory fragments were part of the account wide rewards
Oh so just the expedition account gets it?
Pretty much or save editing them in, but what I mean is I don’t remember the (Class) fragment being included in the expedition as a milestone reward
Tho I could be misremembering
Let me look it up
Reddit thread seems to be on the same page with save editing
Rip
I knew I'd remember if I had something that big lying around
Yeh I checked the wiki milestones don’t list it as a reward in any of the milestones, it was added just not used.
Regardless once you get PS plus happy to give ya some
Thanks. Doubt it'll be anytime soon though
That’s ok my offers don’t expire unless I do 😂
But now that I know about this, I still would want 1 eventually for my main ship
It doesnt take all that long to farm 50k nanites
In what manner of wizardry? Those damn mould farms?! Ahhhhhh 😖
can also tour outlaw systems buying up suspicious packets
mould farms can get you 200k /hr, in the best case scenario
and they're hella easy to set up
you could probably get even past that if you get 3 deposits that all spawn within jetpacking distance of eachother
Debatable, but Ive yet to set up the best case scenario to prove that higher is possible
I think I'd have an aneurysm if I shot at mould balls for an hour
What's that cost again? Units?
you can probably get away with some precise macroing if the planet has no sentinels
Actually not the ideal setup, only need 1 patch, but it has to be the right size, in the right place
yep
Aye that's not bad
but it's only a few k nanites per restock
generally, i think they have about 5 of each
I do have to redo the protection ones, that's from suspicious packets right? I lost so much data 😮💨
Thats why I said tour of outlaw systems, it takes quite a few to generate a large amount of nanites
Ah right, that's the catch. No reloads
I'd honestly rather just spend the effort looking for the S class staff than trying to upgrade one
and you can probably not lose any units if you also buy all the contraband
I think I've got like 200m or something so it's okay, I can spend
For mould farm for nanites are you meaning the mechafauna thing or the rampant mould or whatever that can refine into nanites?
It'll be a runaway mould farm, find em on a hill then build walls to funnel them into one spot and then profit
Is there a guide for that here?
Check #bot-spam
did i do something wrong or
I’d keep that if I were you. It has pretty good sc layout
but like
You can have multiple multitools
yea i know, but there was a staff meant to be there
No
Staffs have to be custom made, they do not spawn naturally
There’s supposed to be a sentinel multitool there
huh
Staves are assembled from the Autophage terminal
You interacted with the MT cabinet on the side
how do i make a staff then
Interact with the central terminal
There should be an option to assemble a staff
That is, assuming you did the Autophage quest line
Only if you’ve completed the Autophage questline
how do i start that quest

I mean mine was a stave you had to put 3 parts together, that’s a prebuilt my guy
The white/gray and silver is there. The planet is named as such. Have to make a restore point on that planet, reload it, then return to the royal multitool pillar planet.
Royal pillars are not very rare actually. In my search I was finding 1 planet with them in a system out of every 3 systems or so. Most have been A class, 3 were S class but the one in my post had by far the best supercharge layout so I didn't post the others.
Anyone know where I could find a nice blue-silver royal multitool?
I found this one but it’s in the hilbert dimension
Thanks, I guess I have my next quest then!
Enjoy the journey
Same to you, whatever yours is.
Anyone got an aqua/teal radiant heart S class staff? I'm having no luck myself
There were twi unnamed and undiscovered planets when i got there they were literally ‘unknown planet’
I just actually made a base in the hilbert
All Radiant Heart Staves look teal - to other players. 🤣
(unless save edited in a specific way)
Does this mean you’d be willing to take me there? If so I should be on in around 6-7 hours. All good if that doesn’t work though.
ive still got a shit ton of slots, what else is this multitool desperately missing?
which 4 stats are the most important for scatter blaster?
Neutron cannon maybe? Can be very effective, I’m pretty sure I was destroying sentinel quads in one hit.
... i already one hit everything, damage isnt really an issue
how much damage would multitool do to other players?
i'm trying to prepare a build for a PVP event
What are the rules on tech?
I see. Already very powerful. I got nothin’ then.
Better question - what does that MT have that's useless? Answer: Forbidden mods
Only applies to Boltcaster
the only rule so far is no neutron canon
Damage, Shots per Burst, Fire Rate, and (ClipSize/Burst Cool) for highest numbers, but Reload Speed is more effective overall
Yes, but being set on fire can make you visible
ty
On the plus side, while youre on fire youre immune to all other damage from others
does it means that if I'm always firing I will be invincible?
so get a boltcaster
No, I said while youre on fire, as in, taking damage over time because someone shot you with an incendiary weapon.
is okay, I realized "on fire" could also be interpreted as slang, lol
Oh really? I'm offline anyway so it's just for me 😊
Quick question - I'm finding a ton of staffs like these, A class, with 3 sc slots by each other... I'm hunting for that elusive S Class with 4 sc slots grouped... The question is this : If I upgrade an A class like this one to an S Class, will it gain an additional sc slot?
Yes, upgraded to or not S class will have 4 SC slots, you may need to purchase more slots to reveal that SC slot however.
Yeah, purchasing extra slots is a must, for sure... Just needed some clarity on the sc slots... Thank you... Looks like my hunt is over, for now... This would be my first staff...
May need to purchase more slots to reveal SC slots, it’s not a definite.
It's a definite - not nearly enough slots in there as it is...
I get what you mean, though... After upgrading, the extra sc slot might appear in one of the existing slots...
Precisely what I mean, just not understanding your previous contradictory statement.
Unless you are speaking specifically your tool?
I didn't mean to come across as contradictory... Apologies... Yes, for me, to use, those slots aren't nearly enough... Which I why I will have to purchase more slots, regardless of where the extra sc slot is...
I get ya now haha, yeh I was talking in general for all multitools as to not confuse someone lurking wondering about their own.
All good simple misunderstanding, happy travels 
To you too...
Sooooooooooooo close...
Note that if you do upgrade it the staff will not be able to have max dmg potential stats
Right… Didn’t know that, thanks… The hunt continues, then…
I've got the parts to make a radiant staff, but I'm looking to find a terminal that creates it to have purple crystals (Just like aetherium)
Anyone know of a place?
I'm actively hunting at the moment... Will let you know if I find one...
This fine? Or you want the staff to be a specific color, too?
That's pretty good, what's the glyphs for the system?
Nice one, thankyou
I put a save beacon and a comms station down to help you find the spot...
I think, for now, this will have to do...
A little bit of patience, and a lot of nanites, and I'm marking this day as "Successful"...
You could improve on Boltcaster and Blaze Javelin if you group their modules in boxes / rectangles as well
Stuff like Analysis Visor, Terrain Manipulator dont have adjacency so you can put them in any slot
Thus making space for boxes of tech that does show adjacency
I'll do just that, thanks... Still new to this, but learning quick, and having fun doing so...
Right now, I'm trying to figure out the purpose of the "Forbidden Multi-tool Modules"... They don't seem to change anything when added to the multi-tool... Or maybe just a certain kind of multi-tool? Searching...
They buff the boltcaster
Thank you… Quite literally just came across that info 😂
They buff the bolt caster+they dont count as normal boltcaster upgrades so you can add them on top or the normal upgrade limit
Shame that they don't boost all the weapon types really
my multitool
Units or nanites wise?
Nanites
I only have about 3000 rn
Bc I spent them all upgrading the rank of my starship
Only?
Dude I have less then 1500
And I’ve barely spent any
Rip
@silver river.
Thx
Anyone got an S class location for a multitool that is like the starter one? Now that we can store tech, it's time to upgrade
It's not S on site? Needs to upgrade?
Correct
Nein! 😭
I would never bother going out of my way for a natural S Atlantid, as it offers zero difference to Base Damage and Mining stats
Oh someone said that the atlantid combined with new tech gives it the best mining stats
This is true
That has to be enough for me. I can't with this nanite farming man
My main ship that you gave me over a year ago I still at A class 🥲
You do know you can just make stuff free to purchase, in options, yes?
Whaaaa
