it's a more valuable skill than I thought it was
(regrets leaving that SAA beetle behind)
If your still looking id be up for that
I do, but not willing to distribute that particular one. As open as I am. Certain ones I'm keeping to myself, that bad boy is one of them.
I've compiled well over 50 SSS creatures, I will release a compendium at some point. Sorry brother ❤️

Hello, does anyone have these cool robots ? Would love an egg 🥚 please 🙏🏼
Hunting good creatures for the arena has me like
Any Gryphon eggs available?
dm me i can get you one! (i think gotta check if its avalible from my gryphon)
I msged u
gryphons? what do they look like?
@lucid beacon
oh, neat
sadly really terrible stats
but i found a cute animal
Thay would be sp cool for me, its my helmet and color lol.
Thanks!
whoa thsoe are some cool looking seahorses
yeah they really are, wish we could pet them
traits are genetic
you need to use the egg sequencer for those
i also found some cool shrimp
btw
what are the best traits for battle pets?
In this case, trust isn't a genetic trait. I think it's a function of time spent with good enough love and feeding.
This depends what you want.
oh wait trust i misread, whoops
Any of the buffs are good, tbh. It's personal preference. Might help boost a certain strategy, or round out a play. I like heals for longevity, but I also wouldn't pass up any of the other bonuses.
Anyone find any triple s orange crystal pets?
helpful independent is definitely the best combo, aggressive/gentle both fine
the other 2 are worse
Found an uncommon underground fire SSS class creature.
Via the fauna channel on NMSCE discord server.
This new creature flighting thing will be fun
I’m already ready 🥹
I understand exclusivity, also in an important sense when it comes to pets. One question: do you have a method to better search for the triple S?
I have seen a player with another style giant flying worm
whats the best way to run around and scan animals btw?
just running around regularily? some kind of exocraft?
Ran into a problem with a hatchling. Hatched a mutated egg from Anomalous 1 and can't interact with 2, no feeding or petting etc.
It's transparent too like half in and half out of universe
pretty sure anomalous 2 is a digging pet
you need mods to interact with those
No, hatchling from 1. Look at size
weird
i have one of those of my own and its just its own species
I overcooked mutation 107% intentionally to see if skills were different

go install this and see if it fixes it

Enjoy!
You know they gave us that new scanner for exocraft, "the cyclops" it funny how perfect that fits the bill for not even having to exit the vehicle now, eh? Eh?
Desert was my last, tyvm. 👍
Oops, second last need fire now to complete
RIP is right. Just played it,killed all 3 and no "genes improved " available
😰
Another fire SSS class creature.
Was this found on an extreme planet?
Wow where did you get the desert one? looks really cool
Love how there's all the SSS records and then 'Blobert'
You might already know this, so forgive me if you do. Pets summoned on the Anomaly show up as holograms, not solid like they are on planets.
From what I read it's tied to daily interactions each day... I was finally able to form the question for google to search and a couple past reddt posts suggested it's %5 ncrease each day a pets needs are met. I do not know the validity of this claim, but it makes sense considering the pet I featured is five years old. LOL
My newest addition, a shame his attack stat is a C but he was too cool looking to pass up
Lf battles 🙂 lvl 30
sequencer can affect behaviors, Aggressive vs. Gentle or Helpful vs. Playful or Independent vs. Devoted - these are like sliders you get one or the other of each of these. the highest of the three will show up as one of the two on the info card.
found an elder brain
Sss
ssnake ssayss SSSS?
I have the egg ready if you want
SAS tropical wolf? thingy
Ok give me a second and ill be on
No, that's not it. It's a ghost pet. Can't improve it,feed it or pet 8t.
Can you delete it?
Probably, although I'm likely to keep it for now in the hope that a patch resolves it. It didn't even register it's 3 wins, although the mutation meter is at 85%.
I am wondering. When looking for creatures, does class or bar matter more?
I found one ASS and the A stat has the most potential?!
@keen horizon whats your friend code so i can get that fish 0,0
Sorry, it has turned out to be too late for me, I am already out, but I still have the egg.
For next time:
FFA5-V2N2-5M02W
ok
will do!
Don't you hate the holo-effect on the Xeno Battles? Kinda makes the looksmaxxing pointless
Toxic triple
in Galaxy 51
Class determins how far bar can go
Do you happen to know which class raises which bar? Thank you very much for your time!
I'm looking for Agility
Each bar has own class
Maybe I'm confused.
Each class [Troplc, Fire....ie] of Creatures has its own Bar [Trait] like Agility, Combat and Health?
I am correct?
All types of them have all three stats present, and they're mostly fully random per species. I believe these stats being in specific ranges makes that stat display as a certain class, and the average stats are probably collected together to determine the overall class
I quick scan on worlds. So I pick a type, go for the systems that have a higher chance of them, land and do a 360 degree scan and then move on. I don't stay to find the last 3-5 fauna on a world. The maths don't work, move on scan a new world.
I spend about 30 seconds to a minute on each world when searching
ty! I'm going to try to find my own Bonecat
So there is no AAA that is better than a SSS and the bars of wild creatures are missleading?
I hope it helps. I've had the worst day today lol
This is my fave section of this server though, all the same people here and I love that
Bars on wild animals are missleading. Its only stats "potential"
In otherwords your always gunna pick sss over aaa
For anyone who has had the issue of Iteration Oceanus ignoring you ("immersed in his datapad"), what was the way you were able to get past it? I did not have the issue but a friend is and I'm not sure what exactly causes it
Pin the Achivement to your log and select it
ty!
I must've just done it initially without realizing it was the requirement
follow up question, they're still having the same issue, is there some other pre-req they need to fulfill? they have pets in their register, all they can do is the training battle
Not that I know of but I know very little
I know all the creatures of the same specie share the same stats, but do they share the same abilities too?
my friend was able to resolve the issue by going to a previous backup of their save, so not really sure if it's a bug of some sort or something else
one 100% of size in egg sequencer is 0.5 or 0.2 m?
i went through invitations and beat a champion
btw i couldnt paint the Boundary Horror
Almost! 😭
Can i ask how u find these so quick?
SSS dino thingy, Tropical. Essentam
Probably youtube videos and coords exchange aswell as focusing on 1 type
That is Master Splinter turned into a Trex..
Rodents of unusal size? I don't believe they exist.
-# It was either that or a skaven joke
He took a lil extra radioactive ooze
Sometimes you just need a little extra ooze to fight off shredder
Does anybody have any
glowing striders
i really wish we could tame the big stone golem things
This one (from NMSCoordinateExchange) its a desert type
thank you
im going to name him minos prime
I've got this one saved from NMSCE to chase down... I'm very unfamiliar with that creature type, are there others that are ghostly in that way?
can you do multiple genetic treatments at once by repeatedly putting an eg into the sequencer?
or do they overwrite each other?
huh, wiki says they stack
they should stack
going to try and get every element of those giant bugs as SSS to match my fit
oh damn didnt do enough treatments, oof
thought "100%" meant "increases by 100%"
oh well
From what I've seen, these are the only ones I know of. I think only the Walkers have this variant
I am looking to train the most powerful fauna I possibly can. I've been searching for triple S fauna almost all of today and didn't find any, but I did find one earlier in the week and plan to look for more. Expect to see me in here trading fauna coords.
Gonna boot up the game to upload my triple S mechanical gazelle
Also, I am VERY much on the hunt for one of those springy flying guys as triple S. If anyone finds one, lmk.
you might find this moves spreadsheet useful then
Worth Using category is subjective but probably pretty accurate
This is goated. Thank you. Do you know if moves' mins and maxes are seeded per creature? Every time I roll a move it has like 1-2 possible stat sets on my best
from what I can tell, each creature (species?) has a set of moves in each category that have been randomized to predetermined damage, cooldowns, and lasting turn effect amounts
and those values won't change even if you cycle the moves around and get the same type
OMG THIS US EXACTLY WHAT I THEORIZED CONFIRMED
Thank you! 😄
I have cycled the same creature's move in the same slot a ton of times and each time the values were the same, so it at least doesn't change when you cycle back to it
Yeah I did over a hundred rerolls probably and got similar
We're on the cutting edge of this update, you and I
well it helps that I'm looking at game files lol
I assume you knew you could redo all your stored move rerolls by loading a restore point? It surprised me when I tried and saw it wasn't seeded early on
if I'm understanding correctly you're just saying that the move cycles are truly random even if you reload the save right?
I hadnt tested but I kind of assumed
I do it where I get like 17 available edits for convenience and then just do a batch each reload
I've gotten the same move 5+ times in a row when cycling that slot
whats the best white dye for eggs?
I'd check the "egg sequencer - creature dyes" on the wiki. It's not fully up to date, and not accurate for all species, but it's a start.
I just dupe a crap ton of the viral pellets if I want to change moves since idc
too expensive anyway
I believe there's a mod that makes it free tho, prob need to install that
SSS Fire
Enjoy!
I do mostly everything legit besides save scumming and skipping egg timers only for time travel, I don't like dupe bugs. Takes the fun out of the grind
I skip eggs because when I find a critter I wanna modify it, stat
to each their own
I love mods and I use them to make the annoying things fast, like companion pet unlocker (which has configs to skip timers for pet stuff)
Yeah no I get that. I see people use mods for things like movespeed and stuff too and hello games lets modding be active as it is for a reason, it's just a chill game so people can soup it as they like
the most useful (and in my eyes necessary now) mods tho are instant actions & instant text display
sooooooo muchhhhh betterrrr
I give unto you my most precious companion's origin. My M.A.X.I. I hope some of you enjoy this fabulous critter
It happened to be on a crimson hex planet too, which i've never seen before. Didn't know it was possible.
Planet also has oddly small walking buildings.
btw everyone I am doing a study of all Xeno moves. I'm just putting everything in a big spreadsheet. If you're curious here's my reddit post https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/1skoc8r/ and here's my spreadsheet https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1W4jAdyT_kXL-M8ewctCgwwxLPz8w0uq735Z8SR7VBAQ/
moves are standard per slot across all creatures except the milestone ones
no point writing the actual move names, imo it takes too much time
will make a google sheet soon, was trying to make the descriptions more accurate to what's listed in the game files for value ranges
Did the pets get reworked or sum?
do we have any indication that star color/extreme planet has any impact on creature stat class chances? I was under the impression of not but decided to try going for it anyway, but now I'm wondering if I'm just torturing myself for no reason in calypso
well, hell. this is good news and bad news. just bad beacuse I've wasted a couple hours lolol
if you haven't played in over a week, there's basically pokemon singles in the game now
Hmm wonder what my giant flying worms are like then
I initially was doing it the way you did it, but rolling moves is way too time consuming
every creature functions correctly in it regardless of whether it was gained vanilla or thru companion pet unlocker
not 100% certain about save editing, not my area of expertise
yeah it's been a lot. kinda fun to see all of the different ranges of attack values, but at the end of the day I was hoping there was more of a database already available and this is definitely more of what I was after.
I was working with someone else whose same creature that I caught had different move names, which we thought was weird. same effectiveness, just different labels.
each move has a range for cooldown, turns it lasts (if applicable), and damage
but per creature (per species too? maybe) if you keep rolling that slot it will always come back to the same values for that move type, so it's sort of predetermined
haven't located in game files what determines these values tho, only the cooldowns range and "weighting" which I'm unsure if that means whether the move spawns on a creature (so their movepool is actually limited, not every move) or if it's actually damage multipliers
oh I just meant that like, my basic tropical attack is called Lash and it "Deals 531-614 Tropical Damage." and someone else who caught the same exact creature rolled their tropical move which was also "Deals 531-614 Tropical Damage." but it was called Pester. So like, why would they call them different things if it's the same creature and the same move? Just felt like a weird decision to me.
I can't find anything in files where it lists the specific move names either, so idk
I have rolled the same slots 40 times each for 4 different creatures now. It's been a lot of work though so I'm glad to hear someone is actually going through the game files!
not too many ppl on the modding side are actually interested in pokemon type stuff, so you'll probably only be hearing from me about it...
I'm a big pokemon fan so when I saw the latest update I was like, yes I will come back to this game lol
same
I skipped the salvage update, wasn't very interesting to me
oh you didn't wanna be a garbage truck driver? jeez that's weird
I might've logged on to see how their version of the half life (or is it source/gmod? idr) gravity gun worked, but if you asked me how to do anything with the salvage things I will have no clue
I think the original gravity gun was indeed a garrys mod iirc
sounds right, that's what I know it from
but yeah, I collected garbage just long enough to get the quest log off of my screen forever, it was terrible. just rewarded nanites too, and I have way too many of those. pass.
oh here's a battle question you may know. does the type of the attack matter, or the type of the creature, or both? for example, the attacks that morph creature types. those creatures still have the same attack types they used to have, but do they now no longer get a bonus because their creature type doesn't match the attack type? and how does that all work with weaknesses? I feel like they kind of half-baked some of these ideas. if I attack a desert creature with a mechanical attack from a mechanical creature, I know that's effective. But how does that compare with a mechanical creature using a non-mechanical attack, and a non-mechanical creature using a mechanical attack? you know?
Hello I was wondering if anyone had an extra worm egg from expedition 4 I could get from them to use in the arena. The xeno arena update got me into the game and I wanted some cool pets to get into it with. I trued asking on the reddit but most of the people there seem pretty rude. At least the ones that replied to my post. I don't think there's a way for me to go back and do the expedition to get my own egg so I apologize for having to ask
STAB doesn't seem to exist and there doesn't seem to be a downside to using moves that aren't the same type
but the only moves you can use that are different type are in slot 1 or are physical, both of which aren't good
The moves that change the type of a creature just so happens to also change the additional move type, from my experience, getting change to a type that has a weakness to the opponent yet was super effective before lost that effectivemess too
if you don't want to interact with other ppl, you can actually go back and play expeditions in offline mode
https://cwmonkey.github.io/nms-expeditions/
Generates SEASON_DATA_CACHE.JSON files so you can customize and play No Man's Sky expeditions and earn their rewards offline anytime.
so if desert is weak to mechanical, would you expect a mechanical creature using a non-mechanical attack to do more/less/the same damage as a non-mechanical creature using a mechanical attack?
I actually wouldn't mind interaction with others if they weren't just being rude and calling me a beggar for asking for n egg I didn't know I could use a mod to get
No, I would expect the moves to be separate from the creatures base. Their combat effectiveness I reckon is the only thing that matters there, the rest is rock-paper-radioactivity.
well the only slot that can get different type *damage moves is slots 1 and 2
I would have to go back and recheck but I don't believe the values were any different
I think for simplicity and rng sake, skills, elements, and creature base are all separate, manipulable variables.
to be real though
you shouldn't be using the first move unless every other move is on cooldown
it's just drastically weaker than everything else
how about the "increasing each use" moves, do those increase forever, or do they have to be used consecutively? I seem to remember my damage getting reset, but I can't remember if I broke the chain or why exactly it got reset, if it even did.
lasts for 2 turns
I use it when my heal and shield are on CD and I need something to layer with a charge-up like Envenom.
I agree, it was more of a question about the concept of move type vs creature type, but you're right.
Except the powerup move in a pinch
I got mine to keep increasing. 500 to 1000 to 1500 to 2000, I'm sure of it.
yeah, you cast it again and it resets that timer
These increment, as long as each use of it lands. I've had some absurd numbers come up. Dodge/reflective shields ruin my day with those regressive-additive moves.
I like to use the basic move when they only have a few HP left and my next moves could use a turn to come back
against an npc I've hit around 6k dmg in a hit
this was with corrupted quad tho
sick
Yep. This is where I'll use the morph, actually. Keeps the ball rolling and I can use one creature to one-shot the last two slots on the team.
Assuming its a lineup like desert-nature-desert and I start mechanical, I'll morph the nature to desert and ride my first guy the whole way through. Kinda cheap.
I've been really liking the 5th slot move that does big damage if it gets dispelled, and then after that casting the 2 slot move which waits 3/4 turns and does big damage. it's basically an unbeatable combo, I've gotten Oceanus every time with that move.
Except when you go against a high agility opponent that debuffs your accuracy 💀
oh those time bomb moves aren't 100% accurate? 😭 I haven't missed one yet.
it's funny how much better accuracy is than dodge tho
What type is this pet from the expedition?
Do they hit the same pool? I've wondered that. The effect text is ambiguous about "you missed" was it a dodge miss or a bad aim miss? 👀
it's hard to tell
I know for a fact the game rounds to the nearest percent whenever you see the hit chance % on a move tho
also there's no way the "depending on your agility stat" attacks are working correctly. I have SSS with super high agility and in the range of attacks it says it could be from like, 1100-3300 and it always does like 1800 or so. wtf is that all about.
Like, I'm sure different effect buckets have soft/hard caps. So I wonder if dodge and accuracy combine in one calculation against a hard cap...
in the files they look correct
but I have seen that same behavior
in my experience the agility stat difference is the best determiner of missing an attack lol
ergo, use the agility boost moves
If I didnt have to chase two kids, I'd be stat monkeying to see if I could peg where those caps are and divert skills to other more effective places...
I really like the triple attack for the 3rd slot. The ones that are like "Deals 197-221 Tropical Damage, then Deals 395-443 Tropical Damage, and then Deals 652-732 Tropical Damage." Those ones always seem to hit super hard for me.
Each hit has a chance to crit, too. It's a lovely little one-turn barrage.
yeah totally, and compared to the rest of the slot 3 moves it just feels like the best bang for my buck.
https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/1slufm3/complete_xeno_arena_movelist/
here y'all go
Some of these have a wide range of cooldowns... 👀 is the CD separate or linked to the damage range?
ugh and I wish we could know the cooldown outside of battle! that's a dumb oversight by them.
there's no way to see your creature stats OR the move cooldowns anywhere outside of battle lmao
mhm
I totally know the answer to that (I don't)
the wording on reflect/absorb could also use some clarity by them. "Absorbs 27% of incoming damage and uses it to heal your creature for 7 turns." Does that mean I take full damage, and then heal 27% of it, or does that mean I take 73% damage, and then heal what I didn't take?
yeah you take full damage then it heals you
so even if healing you could save you you'll still die
the "for X turns" just means the percent heal per turn lasts that long
everyone having fun capturing tons of pets? Do you guys find that the class is entirely random? Or is it more dependant on the species? Say you find a herd, think its random amidst them? Or generally the same herd would be around the same quality?
Oh man... I definitely thought it ate 27% first then healed you. It could definitely use some clarifying...
trying to decide if I like absorbing or reflecting better, but I think I like reflecting. trying to keep my damage output as high as possible.
Same herd, same quality, same skills, planet-wide.
Loving collecting creatures 😎❤️
reflect set amount is 1000000% the best choice
it has so much jank with it in its favor
cool thanks friend thats a good tiopl
*tip
oh, I thought reflect a percent for 7 turns would be ideal, but this is good to know
I guess "reflect the next 900 damage" is really just a +1800 in your favor, so yeah, that seems best
a hilarious interaction with it: if both you and your opponent have the reflect amt up, hitting theirs first will completly byass it and do no dmg to your own
lmao
SSS is always best, though any variation of SSx is fine, depending how into min/max you want to go. 💪 Letter tier cant be changed in any way, but changing personality can affect random effects your creature does in battles. The rest is cosmetic.
am i the only one who feels bad ditching these low quality guys?
i go up, give it pellet, adopt, go to companion register and look, B? too bad you get fired
Hello! I am sorry for asking, but does anyone know of any glyphs to an ANOMALOUS pet that is small enough to benefit from the agility boost, ideally sss
lol, i feel a little guilty
Most seem to be 3m tall
I did. But I felt better about having better ones than I felt bad having bad ones 😅
switch to the last option in the visor and itll tell you the class stats when looking at it
As long as you have 2+ creatures in your roster, you'll have that extra visor option to see stats BEFORE taming.
what?!
i swear i don't see that
far right option in the visor, yeah
snake in the grass
Oh yes thank you! I just find myself in this odd scenario. I usually breed eggs for genetics and every time I find a 1.5 m tall anomalous creature, the egg will always result in a 3m and I cannot decrease that!
usually crystals, energy balls, etc
That sounds... anomalous...
sorry I just realized I replied to the wrong person lol
messages coming in so quick
Badum tss
Youre good
I believe this is because of the species size limit
It is weird though. naturally they seem to be spawning smaller than they should be
thats a huge help! so basically you think when looking for creatures as long as they have 2 S's thats the play eh?
so you'd go for an SSB
triple S or bust
amen
gaddamn
even if you're using the self destruct moves you still want the max amt of health to do other things before blowing yourself up
btw, don't know if anyone noticed on the spreadsheet but there are actually 2 additional moves in the game files that aren't being used 👀
revive & enemy dispel negative
So is it better to have at least one creature with higher HP rather than focus solely on agility?
if it revives them w/ full health yeah
is it revival blessing but NMS
If I may, this would be a good place to crowd source sub questions like "can we verify if cooldown count and damage range are linked or separate variables?" And others. Reddit lends itself well to that kind of post.
agility determines turn order
only go a little lower on it if you intend to use an agility boost move to flip the turn order
Got it
each move in the files has 2 cooldown properties
cooldownmax & cooldownmin
haven't found the thing that determines damage ranges yet
it's very easy to tell that first part because the custom moves for the milestone creatures are also in there
I just need to test what "weighting" does
could be connected to dmg
Between YouTube, here, and NMSCE discord, I got glyphs to all my SSS xenomon for each type. And I nabbed two of each type, which is enough to face each team. I focus on what element the opposing NPC team is weak defense against. If I need a third, I bring in one that has strong defense against their attack and it usually holds its own, if levels are similar enough. +/- 5lvl.
going crazy here but we already play with height, but not weight; maybe something related?
height and weight are the same stat it's just size
ah
in the tooltip for agility / hp I believe the wording it uses is size, iirc
Weighting is intriguing to me... do legendaries have markedly different weighting than regular wild SSS?
weighting property is based on the move not the creature
or are you talking about like chance
No no, I thought it was creature dependent, master variable against individual abilities. A hidden "legendary-ness" modifier.
Weighting per move sounds like a stats thing to skew moves scarcity when optimizing loadouts.
yes there are definitely chances to roll certain moves
like in the first move slot, the chance to roll the "do the type that the creature is" move appears to be close to 50%
weighting is probably much more likely to do with rolling the move yeah
but that also might means every pet might get every move but that's slow af to test
that move has 3.5 weighting as opposed to 0.1 for other types
Interesting! I’m still doing the Artemis mission to get glyphs lol
Is there pvp with pet battles? Or just pve?
there are pvp tables in the anomaly
pve tables are at Oceanus, any space station, and the outposts the challenger coords item takes you to
has anyone confirmed what impact egg sequencing has on the stats? I know it can increase the traits, like helpfulness etc. but can it improve stat caps? my guess is no...
I use the economic scanner on my ship to find trade outposts, there's always a table there. Unless those are the ones you mean...
This makes a ton of sense. I imagine the Morph one is the same. It'd be a PITA to try to roll a Morph to match your creature's element damage type if there was no biased weighting toward your creature's type.
yep, exactly
apparently the weighting property is what determines the move effect, not move cycling
where that actually ends up next though... no idea
the dev of no mans save editor commented on my reddit post abt it
so idk about you guys but my ideal setup has been the following:
slot 1: basic same-type attack
slot 2: wait 4 turns, big bomb
slot 3: triple attack (not multi-turn! those are terrible!)
slot 4: reflect total damage
slot 5: if removed, big bomb
turn 1, slot 5. turn 2, slot 2. turn 3 slot 4. turn 4/5/etc alternate between slot 3 and slot 1, and there's no chance you ever lose lol. the reflect is really even optional unless you're feeling tanky. the dps with this setup is just too high to really mess with.
by the way, slot 2 is the one on the right
I dont know why they labeled it like that but it is
oh lol that's funny.
I will continue to call the one on the left slot 2 like a sane person
it wont be accurate
game files explicily tell us so unfortunately
oh yeah I guess I mean in casual conversation I'll be saying slot 2, because I doubt most people will be looking at the files. but you'll know the truth 😄
two variants of these massive creatures have them both as pets i named the one of the right Kerrigan
Is it possible to save scum with the expedition pets? I was able to do it with the robot mouse, but it won't let me do it with the others—they just give me static stats
Oh Daro that's a beauty, that's so close it's almost worth picking up
Same guess we twins😂
What class are these sss or a
Found it on a high sentinel activity lava planet in a purple system.
@scarlet kettle The planet cords to the desert one is here.
Do the new pellets do anything else besides lvl them up ?
They lower some stat when using it in egg gene sequencer
Found myself a nice SSS fire t-rex 🙂
Available as Badass with spikes and featherless chicken
Are we able to sort our pets in the companion register? Like being able to move their position?
Purple star?
I dont think so
Yes
Sorry discord did the share in a different place then you selected
I found this guy on a desert planet in one of my depot systems.
Do 3* star systems have a bettwr chance to spawns sss
No idea
I've heard people also say purple stars and extreme worlds have higher chances but I can't verify either
To anyone here who sees this message and has found an SSS creature: what was the star color and was the planet extreme? Not even asking for glyphs just trying to get some data for analysis
I found a triple-S on a non-extreme world in a green system (emeril deposits)
But a single data point proves nothing, you'll need a lot more data or data-mining from the game itself
I see nmsce has added some xeno arena tags for fauna now (including biome types and triple-S). I would have preferred fields for those but I guess this was quicker.
I strongly suspect no, as the class of the creature is not saves => It is calculated from the species or genus seed.
So unless the seed is not random, but contains a few bits to encode origin planet, it is random
I found one in a purple and the other in a red system.
Does not mean anything as I was hunting mechanicals, and those are in abandoned systems which are rarely yellow, so I did not go to yellow systems very much.
S Class Pet if anyone wants it
it was a wierd planet i think, yellow star im sure
cycling Oceanus pet moves also doesnt crash the game anymore
no point doing it anyway tho
I like how low level creatures get tons of xp when in a party of high level creatures. I was dreading the grind with more creatures until I realized that.
omg!! first SSS i found naturally
atlas threw me onto a random planet right in front of a flock of these
(PC only though, since you need the companion unlocker mod)
oh and here's the substats
Damn a flyer too!! Very rare, very nice! Congrats!!
honestly, its less that fliers are rare and more that you just cant tame em without mods
We need companions part 2
Star color? Sorry for the ping just doing some analysis
didnt pay attention, sorry
I did unpack the game files but unfortunately the rates for creatures are currently obscured (engine level, not mbin level)
oh wait i can check discoveries
So may have to just log hundreds of entries manually
looks like it's yellow
Problem is that I haven't found sss myself so I'm reliant on other people for that
Tonight I'll set up the excel and begin just hitting random planets and scanning everything, even underground stuff, and logging everything even bad stuff
I was doing this already in Calypso but without the logging
You can get some pretty robust statistical probabilities from relatively small sample sizes. I doubt it would take hundreds. Depending on the test objective...
Also im leaving Calypso; not seeing evidence that extreme worlds have higher chances like some have suggested
if you only log SSS finds, you'll also be inherently biased to planets people are more likely to go to
I also need to go back to my normal save: i was searching on perma death so I could get bonus nanites from scanning but the aggressive sentinels are driving me insane
I'm not
Plan is to log literally everything
But I want to collect data specifically on sss in it's own chart
still
survivorship bias
im posting my SSS but im not posting every BCC i find
SSS Mechanical
Enjoy!
That's a nice small one
That's the smallest walking building ive ever seen
The smaller the creature the greater the Agility.
The greater the Agility the more Damage you can do.
That one is super cool. I hope it gets logged on NMSCE.
My update is I've been learning more about gene sequencing and the effects everything has on Xeno Arena pets. I now have 3/8 of my full blown mastered primary team of bugs manicured in gene editing. 3 more left to do.
And out of 8 bugs, one for each type, all SSS rank I have 6/8
I need a Mechanical bug and a Desert bug. That's all that's left. I think I can cross of mechanical bug as there's one as a reward from Oceanus. But an SSS Desert bug, still evades me
Traits are VERY important for battling
-
100% Helpful - 2-turn combat effectiveness buff
-
100% Aggressive - 1-turn DoT of creature element
-
100% Independent - 2-turn opponent accuracy debuff
-
100% Playful - 2-turn dodge chance buff
-
100% Gentle - 2-turn opponent combat effectiveness debuff
-
100% Devotion - Self Heal
thank you, I needed this
does using the egg sequencer change the fauna's move or no?
Yes the egg rerolls it's moves.
oh nice
But you can modify it's traits, colour, size. (Size has an effect of its own)
-
Smaller Size - Agility buff
-
Larger Size - HP buff
my eggs bugged out tho, they didn't appear in my inventory after claiming from my faunas
Now named after you on permadeath 🙂
I’m at lvl 28 on my highest companion level. When you reach 30 and are able to change moves are you able to see the move possibilities or do they just appear in sequence?
cycles randomly which is annoying
Ive gotten the same ability 5+ times in a row at one point
That’s rough. Is it like the majority of nms rolls where if you reload you get the same sequence?
no, I reload and get new rolls
Interesting, and has the cooldown ever changed for yall? I saw a YouTuber trying to get the cooldown to change but he didn’t on stream at least
oh, the move cooldowns. check out the chart Mariti made https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/1slufm3/complete_xeno_arena_movelist/
When rerolling moves I've learnt that all the 5 moves have a similar pattern
Move 1 - Basic Attack Element/Basic Physical
Move 2 - Special Element or Physical
Move 3 - Special Element
Move 4 - Utility/Heal
Move 5 - High Utility/Cooldown Reset
@tranquil zephyr made this helpful spreadsheet on the moves https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/1slufm3/complete_xeno_arena_movelist/
Yes. I had a frost creature with a intensifying attack without cooldown. Now after the patch it has a cooldown of 1 round -.-'
Is there optimal natures? For example should I allows want a creature that is maxed out in aggression?
Ohh so nature don't affect stats just give different types of effect in battle
Gotcha
yeah, all natures can do something positive, just depends on what you want to do
and the higher percentage = the higher chance they use that beneficial power
they'll just do it randomly on their own after they do a move you tell them to do, so it's all positive
sadly only A class with BCS stats but cool looking sorry for late reply went to sleep after posted these
Hello, is there a list of the best pets ability? or what to focus on?
Question, wasn't there a way to check where you met your companion?
Pet Info only has planet name. If u didint pined planet or animal in wonders it will be hard to find it
I can't even see that at the moment
scroll up a tiny bit and you can see the reddit post that will likely give you the info you want
GOTCH THANK YOU
caps
So... all animals of a specific species has the same stat class?
per planet yes
if you find an animal that is the same creature type on a different planet class stats will be different
Because if that was true, I have a fleeting suspicion that my starting planet is absolutely goated
it has a triple S species on it
best pets traits?
Do traits grow with level?
Effects grow with combat effectiveness or agility, depending, yup
Are those traits exhaustive? as in are they all the traits that's available in the game?
Does it reroll within the options of the parent or is it a full reroll of any moves from the list?
Not sure. Not that I've seen. Traits are static unless modified using Gene editing on an egg. What you want is to find a SSS, get an egg and then create your permanent team member with the egg.
It seems all random. As far as I know. I've done everything legit so haven't been able to test move rerolling fully. I'm sourcing a bundle of pellets to do a test on the side with my non main pets (I don't want to cheat with my main team)
Really depends. My first concrete mains are all different. I have a little bug called Flashbug and he's tiny, agility specced. So Playful gives him a chance at a 2 turn dodge buff. I pick the traits based on what I want the creature to be
There's actually a hella lot of variety to the pet system. Honestly, surprisingly interesting.

How do i find someone with a gate base on aptarkaba galaxy ?
Idk, I went there the old fashioned way
That's the 12th galaxy. So, do you know which galaxies you have teleporters in already?
yes euclid obviously and esseinam
There is also the Pan Galactic Star Cab community specifically for requests like that.
Eissentam is good, that's #10
but i you team u with a friend who have a base you can just go to his base and gain acces to the galaxy
so you would only need to jump through the middle of 10 and 11 to get to 12
Eissantam is a banger
If you have glyphs too, you can find a glyphs for near galactic center to shorten your time in intermediary galaxies. I suggest building a portal base in each galaxy you visit.
What is that community ? Where can i find them ?
go to Eissentam, use an Alien chart to find a Monolith. Answer the riddle correctly (reload if you get it wrong), pay the item cost (vykeen dagger, korvax casing, etc.) and it points to a portal. Go to that portal, enter the first glyph 16 times, and it'll take you to a star very close to the center of the galaxy. Warp to through the center, and you'll end up on the outskirts of galaxy 11. Then do those same steps one more time, and you'll end up in 12.
that's what i do i have gate base in euclib and eissantam 🙂
it'll take maybe 20-30 minutes to go from 10 to 12, but can get much more annoying if you had to get up to like galaxy 20 or something, then I'd just take a taxi
I like that the Anomaly featured bases are from a variety of galaxies.
also that, there's a chance if you go in the anomaly that there's a public teleporter to there already
BUT make sure to unequip all your tech before you go through that centre of the galaxy else it's gonna HURT
Trust me. When I didnt do that....the repair job was a NIGHTMARE
oh yeah! I have a ship with no tech that I use for the job, but the personal tech is still annoying af to fix
And get a burner C-class star ship 😉
💯
Hahaha a burner ship. I love that, gonna steal the term
I have a s living ship, i think living ship are/were unaffected by galaxy jump ?
Really? I did not know that. That's really cool
I love these little touches in the game.
Just now give me terraforming and I'll never leave the game.
not sure i just read it, esseintam was my 2nd galaxy and that's were i got my living ship so i don't know if it (still) work. hav'nt tested.
we already can, you mean large scale terraforming maybe ?
I mean more, see a planet, and change it fully. Alter atmosphere, get the colours perfect. Real engineering. I just imagine popping a terraforming device and it altering the world over time
I don't know if anyone's seen Red Dwarf? But in that Rimmer was stuck on a planet and had Terraforming rockets he fired up. Over time there were wild storms, changes to the environment and then it became habitable
I'm making my battle pets. However, I'm searching very, very hard for this breed Arthropod(scorpion/spider) or something similar to this type of scorpion/spider... I'm only missing:
-tropical
-ice
-desert If anyone has these with 3sss and wants to help, I have the rest to share! And help too!
Do eggs of the expedition pets roll different stats/classes than the og one?
And can they be modified in a way to benefit a certain skill/trait/stat etc.?
would mine do ?
Oh my god, if it's 3sss that would be perfect!
ofc it is i wouldn't have show you if not^^
Perfect, yes I want it, I have fire, anomalous, radioactive, toxic if you want those too.
anomalousbug ? they existe? ^^
yes
but yes sure as bug i only have frost and radioactive atm
any would do, i need to find a ice planet to make it lay egg
is there a way to reorder your companion sets?
i don't think so but if there is that would be cool

Submit bug reports, suggestions or feedback to Hello Games here: https://hellogames.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
no and it drives me NUTS lol
On pc one can technically save edit stuff
I dropped all my current pets and picked up a few s a a variety not much better but might have half a chance with normal battles
Yo could i get an egg of that whenever able been looking for one of tbose for ages
@obtuse summit i can trade u an sss toxic egg for a sss frost egg
Sure, i can give it to you but not today as i gave one to viridim, i need to wait 24h before i can get another egg.
Yea thats cool just send me a friend request or message and lemme know when your ready
Ok, sent.
Player hosted tournament events anyone?
Hello guys I’m starting off this whole pet thing does anyone have any cool pets they’d be willing to share? Meta stats aren’t super important(although I’d certainly like them) but anything that looks cool that I can show my son would be appreciated! Thanks in advance! 🙂
When I show friends cool critters I look for red systems, scan everything from your room on your freighter and then look for planets with 1-3 creatures only bc those usually have robots/anomalous weird stuff
Hit me up! Ive been finding a bunch of cool stuff recently
1 size change in egg sequencer equals to 0.2m or 0.5m?
Look for "SSS" in this channel; theres a bunch on NMSCE discord under their fauna channel as well; also look up NMS Xenomon SSS on YouTube and you'll find a ton, if you use Glyphs.
Sure, I'll help as soon as possible! If you happen to have any 3SSs from the tropical or desert class, I'm also looking for that!
welp, today i met my first ragequitter in xeno arena
How do u get that? (Nkt the class just the pet)
From the planet that it's on. Arthropods are just another creature type that are spread across planets
i can see this being a thing in some groups for sure (:
You wanna be part? 
If i put an egg into sequencer can i get different ratings on the hatchling? Or does it always match the parent
It should match the parent
Okay so I started a statistics chart; if anyone knows how to add results for the chance of each stat being the same letter (i.e, SSS, AAA, BBB, CCC), let me know please. I'm a programmer but I cannot for the life of me figure out this excel shit; it won't just let me put in code https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1iaXxnk_9pTLRcrIqBklPQvSq4A21JtIj8tIZIkvJLrM/edit?usp=sharing
right now I'm only doing purple stars; goal is 100 new entries a day (where each entry is one creature)
if you want to contribute to this project, send me a dm about it
I'm going to bed now though so don't expect any responses from me for a while
i haven't done pvp battles outside my beau and friends. i do it to help them test new moves sets and tactics. (:
also, I did search through the game files, and unfortunately the actual chances are at the engine level, meaning modders can't see them
so hoping this data sheet is helpful once it reaches a thousand entries, and hopefully I find my own SSS by then
I didn't see this
Wondering how he got the values though
Ill check that out, thanks
second link
It might be worth it to still back it up with my real data, if anything to show people how unlucky I am lol
But thanks; I'll see how i can incorporate that into my work
If that stuff is correct, then there's a 0.33% chance of any creature being SSS
Do you all think the attacks that have a 50% chance of missing is good?
No. I got other attacks that do just as much and don’t miss unless I have a debuff
btw guys you can color the names of your Xenomons:
use this as names:
for toxic: <GREEN>Pikachu</>
for desert: <EXPED>Pikachu</>
for frost: <VISOR>Pikachu</>
for anomalous: <RARE>Pikachu</>
for mechanical: <DARK_TECH>Pikachu</>
for tropical: <FLORA>Pikachu</>
for radioactive: <STAT>Pikachu</>
for fire: <RED>Pikachu</>
Striking out trying to find my first SSS
I hope this question isn't too stupid but...I've heard about a flying worm from a previous expedition that is a good flying mount for planet traversal. is that the "sandworm egg" item?
hmm I haven't used the egg sequencer before. does it take something special?
Not perfect but close
Anomalous creature means there’s only one of them per planet correct?
find my first SSS accidently today on my 3-4th day of playing. Landed on a planet and after 1-2 mins - there it was, all shiny, so my eyes could not believe it. I never thought I'd ever find one.
Well, I took 2, though I prefer not to have duplicates.
use storm crystals - feed the egg till the sequencer stop increasing it.
How about moves that do massive damage but buffs the opponents/ or self sacrificing moves?
could be, actually, now u've mention
I don't have any storm crystals. seems like 73 gold will do it though. I assume it's the same result so long as it hits 100%?
then use anything that increases its size and something u have plenty of. or just feed diferent stuff - all the same
what about the neural calibrator? I see online recommendations to do like aggressive, devoted, helpful. that sound right?
I recommend watching this tutorial. I watched it and it was like "all u need to know" https://youtu.be/bA3sRBUPUt0?si=P7e7FfnjtUo8pmaA
No, all creatures on red/green/blue worlds that don't have any built-in affinity are Anomaly
same with weird worlds, but those only usually have non-aligned types of creatures in purple systems
perfect thanks!
I will tell you one thing now, and I suggest u write it down. Its about abilities that activates by itseld randomly. So - here we go:
HELPFULNESS (UP UR STRENGTH) <-> PLAYFULNESS (UP UR EVASION)
GENTLENESS (DOWN ENEMY STRENGTH) <-> AGRESSION (DAMAGE OVER TIME TO ENEMY)
INDEPENDENCE (DOWN ENEMY ACCURACY) <-> DEVOTION (HEALING)
for agression I suggest dirty bronze
all of the materials used for changing personality traits are in pinned comments
also, the personality bonus move chance is 6.6%
and don't tell me u dont have something. This whole egg sequencer thing is not a cheap deal. Pretty item consuming.
oh yeah I just meant I didn't have any on me. I have some in a bank somewhere. I just was making sure that the specific material didn't matter so long as it says "increasing" or "decreasing" and the percentage. but I think I got it, and I'm watching the video. thanks for the tips!
u r correct
And Neural calibrator is... optional. Some might say - it matters only for PvP.
mainly I just wanted to make one pet just to try the system out and will get more into it later on after I do a million other things in the game. I only restarted a few days ago with a brand new save having not played for 5 years so it's taking a bit of catching up haha
For the Gene splitter, try it like this and use it as a final stage:
- u save first, using ur ship
- u open the egg to see and remember the result, then u reload
- u go to Gene splitter and try 50% doze, crack the egg.
- if u like what u get u keep it, otherwise - reload and crack it there.
sounds good. I'll give it a shot!
Lf Battles
egg sequencer is a very far ahead in a playthrough thing. Xeno Arena is fun though.
well, actually its up to a player to decide what goes when. The game is a sandbox in a way. Like GTA Online in space.
I personally discovered egg sequencer a few days ago and enjoying its balance of simplicity/complicateness. Its a fine tuning thing, like a car tuning, but for ur xenomons.
bonescale is beautiful
@lone pelican
Lemme see
can i pick it up from you 2morrow? its 2am here i truly wasnt expecting such a quick response
bet!!!
so sometime 2morrow i can ask you for that egg?! ive been searching around for days since the update
Sure
omg thnk you so much!!!
I got pinged. I was obligated to reply
Ping me when you're ready and hopefully I'll be up
Can I get in line for one of these🥺
Of course
Thank you!🙇♂️
if it isn’t too much trouble i’d also like to sit in line ?
-# sorry for the ping
Added to the queue
thank you so much !! 🩷
-# looks like Mambo is gonna be busy..might need to hatch more of her just to keep up with Eggs
is this a Cthulhu cult or something?
No it's just people really want Mambo because she's a triple S biohorror
Perfect for la creatura battles
🎶mambo 🎶mambo🎶omatsuri🎶mambo
Is it obtainable through mod only like flying one ?
Do you happen to have its planet coordinates ?
its an expedition egg
I found my first SAS accidentally when rescanning the creatures of my settlement planet ..., next to a CCC
Yes as grouch say, you need to find a planet with it, they are standard pet classified as "Giant Bug" I don't have its coordinate because i had him prior to xeno update but i can give you an egg after tomorrow if you want.
Oh that's why egg only. Thx for the answer
what affects miss chance, is it the agility diff between the 2 units? just the agility of 1?
Haven't found any sss yet, found a few sas or ssa tho
Just a daily check. Anyone found a Triple S Desert Bug type yet?
Need it to finish my team.
Dang if that was a desert type Kitasan. I'd of snapped that up
WORRY NOT DEAR VIEWER
I BELIEVE I HAVE THE PET FOR YOU
Pray tell m'lady! I am excited.
you like WORMS?
I love a worm! Haven't got a worm in my collection!
my other pride and joy
Yes please Queen. I'd like to order one Worm if possible
lemme get the EGG
Genuinely, you've made my day btw. I really, really appreciate that
one egg acquired, whats your friend code
Absolutely. 2 seconds and I'll get it for you
NG95-SYM3-RWX2A
And that's you added too
I threw you some Retroviral Pellets in case you want to do a bit of experimenting. Thankyou so very much queen ❤️
You got it bossman, have fun
ANother S class
not triple S but close
So a companion that is induced from an egg will have identical stats to its parent right?
Note: It may be that the class indicator doesn't matter as much as we think;
Scan the wild version, and you will see the yellow line which shows the ACTUAL skill of the critter.
Just like X Class tech upgrades, the RANGE is shown... but the ACTUAL adult stats are those yellow lines.
(at least, that's how I understand things)
if no edits, assumedly everything will be standardized against the whole species (set by seed data)
My understanding is, the combat/health/agility would be the same as the parent (fixed by species), but you can modify things like size, gentle/aggressive, etc. I haven't played around with egg sequencing yet myself, though.
Okay, so I'm having issues with one of my companion, he's very large and he will NOT shrink. No matter how much I gene edit. Which means, I need a new Radioactive type SSS Bug. Any wonderful person come across one?
Spot all four mecahnical type on this picture. 😉
An SSS radioactive butterfly or ladybug would be awesome.
does anyone have an idea on how to make my biological horror get its horns back?
maybe breeding it with one that has them?
I would assume Gene Editing
You can't breed 2 creatures together.
nah, gemini is saying its wishful thinking
copy
If you have an egg and go to the Gene Sequencer, there is a protocol called Gene Splitting. That's how you tinker with physical attributes brother
Anyone has done further testing on rerolling the biohorror? From what I‘ve read it‘s the one expo pet which will always have identical stats & class no matter what.
that part
which is why im inquiring about the horns
without them, it looks... timid.. or childlike
Gene Splitting, that's the solution man. For sure
youve results or are we all brainstorming
You gotta save edit the expedition pets to get S class stats
They can be rerolled
How?
I've been modifying pet's for a long time
only abilities not class
I‘ve heard even their class is random
nah traits and class are indentical as stated
If you claim it, hatch it…then reload again before claiming it if you didn’t like it, you‘ll get a different config apparently
I think expo pets
should have been S class from the start
agreed^
I see
So this is why I plan to make a new save where i save scum the pets, and then trade them to my main char eventually
claim it? theres a way to ascertain it outside of its egg stet? how?
Aren’t eggs seed based though?
my thoughts
Yeah, but I mean the ones you claim at the QS vendor
those arent the ones im mentioning
Those are apparently different whenever you claim them
Sadly that’s only a one time thing correct?
Yes, but you could claim them on new save, reroll etc. then trade to main
ive two and im getting an S class on today, but theyve no horns as they do in game which is the one im looking for
Oh so that biohorror pet is an expo reward?
idkw bro speaking on if he not talking about the npcs that come out the ground
they were event based
but i got lucky in trades
hes gotta be speaking on what the npc rewards you for advancement
they labeled "horrors" but they arent the "traditional" in game enemy type
those were event based, an event i missed
Well that’s one way to do it. I didn’t know
hence my questioning
I’m not sure then
nah im giving you clarification
Yes. The idea for me is I‘ll make a new save, go to the Anomaly, landing there makes a restore point.
So I‘ll land, claim the egg, open it to see the stats/class, if it‘s not triple s reload and claim, hatch again.
the ones im speaking about were in game and a reward way before this update
Oh I see, gotcha
so... which horror are you speaking on, the reward or the original biological horror?
Yes the
is from Cartographers and was made availible again in the Omega expo
Had to reread
wait wtf??
so i can just earn one?
All expo pets can apparently be rerolled this way, except for the biohorror which will always be B-Class for some reason
If you do the past expo using the offline generator yes; otherwise save editor or service bot
Or someone could give you an egg
Good to know my friend
so... your modding?
im confused
if anyone gets an S class horned biological horror can i get an egg?
im very confused now lol
So the issue is that the horned biohorror seems to not change stats when doing the method i described above. Every other expo pet appears to go through a bunch of different randomized classes and stats when claiming them at the QS Vendor, but the Biohorror always ends up at B class.
For the third time. Get your biological horror with no horns and get an egg from it.
Once you've got the egg you can modify it before hatching.
GENE SEQUENCE the thing using the Gene Splitter function to get your horns.
It's that easy bro
There's 1000 guides on gene editing your creatures to get features you want. You may have to reload every now and again but just Gene Splitter the thing repeatedly to make it trigger a mutation in its model.
I am right here, it's not a theory. I had a bug with no stinger, mutated the thing and it's got a stinger. It's all super doable using the egg sequencer.
do you know the species planet? i would like a dope ass worm as well ! and i don't want to bother anyone with waiting for an egg
Anyone got a Helios egg
👀
sadly taming one crashes the game lmao
||the companion unlocker mod is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural||
nice. Yeah, revisiting your bases for pet tier-checking is a low-hanging fruit
So what is the mutation indicatior about?
It is brand new and indicates the progress before your next level up
Yea, I know it's part of the new Xeno update - but ok, so once 100% you level up. How many levels are there?
Tnx
30
30 and then every one beyond that allows you to mutate and reroll a move
The pellet item that you can win from winning battles is worth one full level up when used on a creature.
Level ups increase one of the three main stats, health combat and agility, from 1-10, of your choosing.
I have a legit triple s
Anyone here found an SSS Radiation Butterfly or Ladybug?
Oh that's unfortunate
It's not as broken as my 2s Trex. That MF can't die. Spam the absorbing shield, spam combat effectiveness, use that 100% lower defense move and then it hits hard on turn 2 move, use barrage, reset the shield, reset combat effectiveness (which now is on a stack 2)
My first triple S companion found, and a radioactive type.
I found a creature that had C agility and 2s but it ranked an A.
The agility was nonexistent. The other two were near full.
Do you happen to have the coordinates?
I’m at work atm, but I’ll send you the planet + glyphs once I’m home.
It’s in Hesperius Dimension and I found it in my home system.
thanks!
In case anyone is after a fire triple S, I also found this on my starting system:
Oooo nice! Gonna grab this when I get home.
My next goal is to collect at least 1 triple S xeno of each type.
That's my goal too
Nab two of each when you find them in the wild. You'll have choices then 😎
if your talking about his guy dieing he used recycle flesh witch gives boosts too his whole team but kills his Xeno
He's got 3500 health. He's overpowered.
HG needs to have a "your opponent is running level 30 beasts, do you want to battle?" button
omg crab
thats a realy cool critter/worm any chance i can get a location code or egg, if not i dont blame at all you its very cool. if you say no you wont here me bug again
It's an expedition pet. I'll put you in the queue
Same story
i see
thank you, i dont want to be a bug if is a problem
is there a way
to get expedition eggs
again
like
if i lost them somehow
i don't mind using a save editor if i have to
Are there any guides on how to gene sequence an egg to effect the ranking of an animal?
How does the "damage based on targets agility" Work? Is it higher = Lower or the higher they have it the more I do?
you available for that trade?
What does Trust do for xeno arena, if anything?
Probably nothing
Not rn
how exactly does gene splitter work?
used four different items on the same doggo, and it resequenced into the exact same animal four tims
also, here's the original
Happy birthday!
pretty sure the yellow line is the substat from what i understand
like
this pet has a combat effectiveness that is terrible for C
an agility that is bad for A
and a health that is good for A
also the lines on actually caught pets are always calibrated in such a way that when their highest stat is 10/10 it fills the line
so theyre actually pretty terrible for comparing two pets
My strongest Xeno Warrior
Man, changing traits in the sequencer is expensive
And takes way too long
cords?
The in-and-out of menus could absolutely be streamlined 💀
Use the correct material to get 100% each dose. That helps.
whenever I try searching for fauna on the cord exchange nothing comes up
That shouldn't be happening
I've been able to search stuff just fine
If nothing appears, that may mean that nobody has documented what you seek yet
Is there a like a list on there with everything so I don’t have to specify
Like and way to filter the latest tab for fauna only
What do you mean?
There's tags and there's the outdated creature type filters, those are all that should be necessary
If you want to search for creatures found after 6.30, add one of the "type" tags or set the version to Xeno Arena
anyone have giant sandworm egg?
I’m sorry for the late reply but I wanted to thank you for the advice! I’ll definitely be giving that a try
Thank you ! I’ll be giving those suggestions a shot I appreciate the help!
Still takes too much time
Hi, Someone has Coords for 3 SSS creatures?
If yall want to boost to level 30, I can challenge you a 1 v 3 or give you retrovials to boost you to thirty, but if you want the vials, you'll need to give me at least a 2S egg or greater.
Looking for 3 SSS Desert Creatures
I have a double S desert in Elk galaxy
i got already SSA creatue
Can't you get it to drop an egg and edit it in a gene sequencer?
SSS Desert is unable to find ?
Not trying to be an ass, I'm genuinely curious if it's worth editing it in the anomaly.
i thougt just the mechanical pets are very hard
very rare to find... and narly impossible to SSS
I have a 3S frozen if you want the egg.
I got one of the strongest frozen pets
Curious now. What level and what moves?
My Rex only has like 3500 health but the absorbing shield I can double up on. It's impossible to kill unless it's a toxic move killing it.
And she's level 30
Euclid. Found it on an aggressive sentiment earth. Only a double S but I can get her to lay an egg. If I lay her an egg, I'm gonna dupe it and release her cause she's 1 egg away from being sterile.
No, you can only edit personality traits in the sequencer regarding combat, not SABC tiers. Those are creature-and-progeny specific.
So like boosting it's size and shape and colour doesn't do anything useful?
Look up NMSCE discord/reddit, and also check out YouTube - you'll find tons of SSS creatures to choose from, you just need to be comfortable using portal glyphs and maybe navigating different galaxies (though Euclid has like 90% representation there).
Size marginally affects HP or Agility, if its bigger or smaller.
So it's not even worth gene editing. Damn. That would have made this update absolutely amazing. That's one criticism I have with it and the other is I want the stats right there with moves when I just hover over my aliens. I don't like having to click and navigate to see them. Just annoying is all.
I'm sorry that was youe experience. I believe i found mine that way, through Hero2u's channel.
What's the save editor people are using for creature editing? I'll just make a fair 3s. To me it's stupid making a max god tier alien.
It is, especially when you're fighting S-tier champions and Oceanus. You can max 3 of 6 traits for frequent creature-initiated effects.
save editor is cheating
That's why i always back out of fights with 3s lv 30 people. Either fight me fair with a legit 3s that's not maxed stats or get lost.
For example, I edited a creature for Aggression (random DoT against opponent), Playfulness (random accuracy debuff on opponent), and Devotion (random heal for own creature). Maxed at 100% each to maximize frequency.
Oh. So it's passive effects that get altered.
That can be your definition, but that's very open to differing opinions here. It's always been a valid way to play NMS if you choose.
I believe the devs made a way to ensure combat capability cannot exceed certain parameters even with save editing... so edits are mainly for getting specific creatures but no competitive pvp edge. I'm not certain there though, someone else may weigh in.
Exactly. And they add up, especially in tight competitive environments.
What's annoying is the 2s desert alien I found is ugly as sin.
And my B class deathclaw is an SCB.
Stupid thing is a glass cannon.
hello, someone have an eg for this one please?
The titan worm companion?
YEAH hahaha i got it !!
t rex head but the combat is the lowest it could ever be 😭
Find an SSS with that body archetype, and you can splice its genes to eventually roll a T Rex head, if you want that 🙂
@exotic pumice
Here’s the planet/galaxy and the creature you’ll be looking for.
I had a question, is collecting extinct species a thing? Because about 2 years ago I captured an giant orb mechanical creature, and literally right after scanning it and capturing it, the planet said extinct on its species entry for the planet
I figured id ask here since its a creature channel, dont know if there was a better place to ask
Only major updates do that, and they haven't changed what fauna is on what planet since like Origins in 2020, aside from a few temporary times that were fixed (like synthetic fauna in purple systems)
A bug introduced in Worlds Part I also made it so extinct flora and minerals appear in the fauna section, which has greatly confused many players
Is there a way to find out what planet/system you got it from by chance? I dont play the game much, just returning after nearly 6 months
Not really, aside from finding it in the discoveries menu or documenting it yourself beforehand
Using a save editor, creatures do display a Universal Address, but I'm not sure if this is fully accurate
does anyone have the horned/burrowing biological horror? im willing to trade a scuttle horror for it
did anyone try to mutate Oceanus's pets abilities after the patch?
Sounds like it led to crashes.
I keep finding earth planets. Blue water, blue sky and green grass. I'm trying to find fire planets.
Anyone have titan worm egg?
i tried it now
now it doesn
BUT
it only swaps to the basic attack and back to the baked-in one
on any slot
also those 1 turn buffs like agility boost on the Boundary Horror expire before your next turn xD
probably a bug
but at least we can swap it to the basic attack now and swap back if it gets fixed
also this swap policy means that the Corrupted Quad is ASS
@tranquil zephyr sry for ping, but you might find the info above interesting, especially in regards to your tierlist and the agility attack in it
seems like your list is going places now
Dumb question but can you tame the horrors/broods?
The one scorched planet I find and it's synthetic machine life. Wtf.
No. The eggs you get are from previous expedition rewards.
define broods and horrors
the huge bugs you fight on brood planets? yes u can. they are quite common on other planets to tame
the green horned guys from abandoned buildings? expedition egg
Got it, thank you! Was trying to cover all my types
There's bug fauna you can tame that look similar to vile brood in ways, but they're not the vile brood
^
well they even were added in the same update so its basically the same thing shrugs
they fixed the crash but it just cycles to the same ability for each slot then back to the curated ones so no point
theres a point for that 1 turn agility!
that doesnt work anyway
What do those go for these days? I know you can dupe most things now
1 turn agility boost expires before your next turn, so its useless, might aswell change it to a basic shot
same with all N turn self-buffs, they count the turn they were used
Just ask and someone will just give you one. The shuttling horror (frigate ones) are decent enough, the burrowing monstrosity (green xenomorph thingies) kinda mid. The vile brood is mid.
the squid isn't max speed, if the enemy pet is faster you can turn order switch and retain the agility buff for your next attack (which uses self agility)
Preciate it! Thank you
does it happen often tho? i got it maxed and it never happened in 5 fights
ive a biological horror, scuttler type, i want the horned one that goes underground
Green guy is an expedition reward
against other sweaty players yeah
ik and it seems as if no one has him
hmmmm
both are toxic type tho
They all are expedition rewards. But someone can just dupe an Egg and you're good. I've got several hundred level retro vials on two accounts.
All three horrors are toxic.
btw i think ATTACK_SELFDOT is by far the best attack in the game now xD
Vile brood, the facility and frigate monstrosities are all toxic.
also I believe all the arena pets can lay eggs now, the native climate for squid/corrupted quad are specifically blue and red system unusual planets (don't quote me on which is which)
And HG finally fixed robot eggs
would be weird if its specifically red and blue and not just any Weird (pun intended)
gonna have to wait until mine grow up to see it for myself, i guess
Wouldn't it make sense for it to only be purple star systems for native climate?
Purple and ANY dissonance world?
youve a horned biological horror?
maybe from semantics perspective, but the current system operates solely in biomes
The green one? That you find in abandoned facilities? Yeah.
I got all
if i was HG i wouldnt tamper with it
alright, the quad is ass, time to get another mecha fighter
You need a good mecha? The mecha mouse is a triple S.
my mecha mouse was like CCB lol
My buddy's hatched a triple S.
can i puhlease have the mecha and horned bio horror egg? ive a base near a portal or we can use the anomally
I'll have to see when he's next on so I can steal an egg off him. But yeah I need to find a climate for this thing.
Anybody has a shark egg?
well if its not too much trouble, plz get one for me
im down for a fighter mouse
its toxic 2
Thank you!
I hatched mine on a verdant planet and the stupid thing needs an airless climate to hatch.
yeah verdant
you wanna add me for the egg trade? or use the portal glyphs? you in euclid or kilp?
Anyone got a couple of cool eggs ? I can pay handsomely
maaan i really wanna try this Shrimp Tank out
might just use Mjstral's unlocker for it...
I'm in Elkupalos right now. Give me a sec, I'm finding an airless world.
there's a mod on nexus that unlocks all 5
but you didn't hear that from me
oh im sure theres plenty of ways
wait, so what ur saying is, if the enemy stole your turn with its agility and had 2 turns in a row, u get 2 turns in a row after that?
i thought agility proc just inserts an extra turn for oneself and thats it
yeah you can do that
a move that puts your agility above the enemy's will flip the turn order and give you 2 turns in a row (including the turn where you cast the agility move) so it's just a matter of if you can outdo theirs
Basically you're not getting two hits in a row. Enemy goes, you go agility boost, you use a 1 hit kill move, they go, they go again.
and if you use the agility boost move that lasts for more than 1 turn then you'll go first until it runs out, unless your opponent also does the agility turn order flip or switches in a massively higher agility stat pet
I have the egg. You in euclid?
I'll warp you to my Dino world that has a 2s tropical.
i can load in rn and hop whereever
Load in. I'll give coordinates.
loaded
My dinos are extinct. Another planet killed off by the world's update.
RIP
Do you have remnants of them?
Ive heard its possible to have extinct species survive as companions
Yeah. I got a 2s out of it.
I have a nice collection of dinos if u need any
Im mostly reminiscing, since I lost a species on my starting planet that I grew fond of. It went extinct many updates before worlds
Added u
My code is in the profile
My very first starting planet
I'm looking for S tier and higher creatures.
Yea none of my pre-existed pets got good class unfortunately
My very first paradise planet looked like Planet Namek from DragonBall but red grass. It turned into Shrek's Swamp.
They were these guys. Theres a species still existing on that planet that I consider as descendants, but its not the same
Planet is still a desert, funnily enough
Yeah join me. That way I don't lose my spot in Elkupalos.
The space stations in this galaxy are borked and don't save in your recents
oh it says version mismatch
did u not update to 6.33?
xbox updates late
Oh shi hold up
oh its the xbox icon
Let me switch to PC.
Updating.
Done
I had to disable cross saves so my Xbox save doesn't get borked
Gotta get the PC code
without the crosssave you would need another egg 😄
its surprising that the crosssave corrupts saves on mismatched versions
sounds like #1 problem u address when doing crosssave
No. I uploaded first from Xbox. Disabled on PC. Will reload Xbox and re-enable it.
It won't corrupt, just can't play on console until the update drops.
ah
Says "incompatible version, cannot load" if you future update the save from console.
There's the code.
Was joining but then it looked like u exited
Crashed. Reloaded. Back in.
No. Just a little buggy on an older system. Happens rarely when I activate the other cores mid game.
Or if I start moving around before the area renders, it crashes.
Ok. Back in business.
Joinin
What's the button on keyboard to chat?
enter
Don't worry about giving an egg back. This save is getting deleted.
I'll hit you up when he gives me the egg and I'll dupe it.
welp that one was SSC 😄
it was the last one, so health
Ah no biggie. That's usable for me. As long as I can hit harder faster, health is of no concern.
I'll use it on players with Alpha Level. No upgrades.
did i miss out on the horned horror?
im playstation
Good. You're before 33
bet
I just made my greatest discovery of them all! I'm a bit confused though, why it looks so different on its discovery page?
My deathclaws do that. One looks like a deathclaw the other looks like it's going into anaphylaxis
so im not gone lie right, lol, my code ish isnt or hasnt been working as of today i dont know if due to the update or what but.... i live near a portal do you know your portal glyphs???
ill try adding you but ive no hope in the matter
Should be on same version, so your code should work
ill check
Do you have the cords? The Agility is good on this.
I want one!!
Great find by the way 👍
yeah its saying its failed to add you
I'm not too fond of sharing coordinates, I want to discover everything in my corner of the universe myself
This means you typed it in wrong
idk whats going on with nms
I respect that very much.
Congrats, you got a real good damage dealer there 💪
version mismatch is only a problem upon actual join attempt
nah... ive been trying to add people all day today
then you most likely lack some sort of connection to MP services #nms-questions message or are typing every friend code incorrectly
love
ill be there in like 3 mins
no i can do multiplayer, and add people in person
I'm still very unsure if I really want to breed and mutate the egg. I already love the way it looks, and feels like mutating is kind of a easy way to turn most ugly creatures around
Do most people here use creatures for battling right away, or try to change appearance and traits first?
I try immediately.
maxs level it, reroll the abilities then breed for max potential
