or creature eggs etc

[winter obsidian]

Afraid there is no other way than grinding the travellers

[lofty vessel]

but I don't have the glyph set to use on a standard portal

zamn

[quick herald]

the pins in this channel tell you how to find stuff like that along the expedition path. no glyphs needed

[lofty vessel]

okeoke

tyty

[lofty vessel]

Do I need to go to a specific race for explorer missions?

like korvax systems?

[winter obsidian]

Not necesarily, you can find them in Vykeen and Gek systems as well

However the Korvax systems should have a higher chance of having the missions for explorers guild

[kindred bough]

Is there a way to transfer expedition items to other characters?

@lofty vessel , I used other peoples bases to find my beetle. Lots of people named bases things like “beetle planet” and things like that. I just searched the teleporter in the space station along the route

[grand tinsel]

The big rewards are cross save, what exactly are you trying to transfer?

[lofty vessel]

ye i found the pins with it with a beatle base. Almost done doing the missions

[cunning karma]

i am at rendezvous 1 but there is nothing at the marker and i can't see anything flying around

[quick herald]

Use the Target Sweep on your visor

[cunning karma]

Ok I found it, it just didn't load till like right in front of it

[zealous light]

Hey all! How do you get the 200,000 unit creature scan? Is that one of those exotic creatures in rendezvous 5?

[quick herald]

2-3 S class scanner upgrades, put them together in a square grid formation.
Then scan a single rare fauna
It doesn't have to be the exotic fauna (those arent always "rare" anyway)

[winter obsidian]

Hey
I'm at phase 3 at the expedition and need to give Iteration Kronos my cake, but all the step tell me is "call the anomalie" and that's it. If i talk to kronos all i can show are giant eggs, refined flour and larva core.

[quick herald]

Start with wild or fresh milk, process to cream, then to butter, then mix with sticky honey for honeyed butter.
Then mix the honey butter with an egg and refined flour (from heptaloid wheat) to get cake batter.
Then mix cake batter with sticky honey (or honestly a lot of things will make a cake at this point)

And make multiple, sometimes it takes a couple for Cronus to be inpressed

[quick herald]

Also, because i probably misunderstood the initial question, move those other items to a storage container (or your nutrient processor)

[edgy dock]

also, couple of other tips:

• can save, feed him an item and reload the save if he's unimpressed
• If your cooked food isn't showing up in Cronus' dialog options, move the cooked food item from the exosuit to the starship and back.

[fresh jewel]

Honnied Proto Cake did it for me in one. Maybe I was lucky.

[winter obsidian]

Thanks for the answers @quick herald and @edgy dock - i already bake a cake and i found "my" way to get it... put everything he ask into the starship until he finally ask for your cake 🙂

[fresh jewel]

On my PC save, I stupidly dumped my original companion which was at 95% trust and now only have companions which are at 70%. I'm not making headway fast with gaining their trust. Would it help if I genetically altered a new companion to be more trusting (if possible) or are there other techniques I should know?

[winter obsidian]

IIRC the pet rewards from previous expeditions start at 75%

So maybe use them for a bit of headstart?

[fresh jewel]

pet rewards?

Pats and pellets?

And what do you mean start at 75%?

[misty axle]

Hey y'all I'm new to this game and I'd love to have all expedition rewards, how do I start first?

[winter obsidian]

Expeditions 3 and 4 main rewards were companion eggs

Biological Horror and Titanic Worm respectively

If you did previous expeditions, you can try getting their eggs on current expedition save

They will start with trust at a level 75%

From there work your way with feeding, petting and letting them induce an egg

[winter obsidian]

You can't start the previous expeditions 1-4

Expeditions are a limited time events, those took place in 2021, even had a reruns throughout December and January 2022

You can only start the expedition 5 right now

There is hoping HG will bring back the previous expeditions later on this year, so that new players from Switch can have a chance on these items

But we don't have any solid info on that

[misty axle]

Okay so hoe do I start expedition 5?

[winter obsidian]

Start the game - Play Game - New Save - select expedition mode (right most option)

[misty axle]

Hmm okay

[misty axle]

What Lush world?

[winter obsidian]

HAHAHA

I AM DONE OFFICIALLY

[zealous light]

Thank you! Best place to get those at space stations?

[quick herald]

yep!

multitool vendors will have them. the class available is random though.

[zealous light]

Sweet! Thank you

[barren fiber]

Hey guys, where can I find swampy and volcanic planet? Near second rendezvous point rn

[cunning karma]

my game crashed after i got an egg from the pet you get at the start of the game, and now its gestation timer has reset to 24h again, is there any way to speed it up
wait i still have the egg in my inventory, but i don't have the achievement thing

[golden berry]

The expedition is really starting to annoy me.. It I'm up to famous explorer I go to the agent to get missions they just say "LEVEL 1 VY'KEEN MISSION" I complete the mission nothing happens am I supposed to select a certain mission I'm really confused and I can't find a list of what missions I am supposed to start and not start. Like what am I supposed to be looking at all I see is a bunch of words but nothing saying "Explorer" or "Explorer Mission" What am I missing???

[cunning karma]

i think your supposed to take explorers guild missions, but you need standing with the species to do so

[barren fiber]

Yeah, that objective is nuts

16 missions...

[golden berry]

How do I check my standing??

[toxic gull]

Try doing "Explorer's Guild" missions in Korvax systems, since your standing is already increased there. If you're in V or G systems, you need to level up with G or V missions before you will see "Explorer's Guild" missions to choose from.

It should be only two, maybe three, missions in Vy'Keen or Gek before you are leveled up enough.

[edgy dock]

@toxic gull ty for helping out

[dry anvil]

how long does the current expedition take? if i started it today, would i still have enough time to complete it?

[unborn star]

Its possible to complete it within a week but it depends on how you go about the expedition some people will speedrun the expedition and some people will take their time

[dry anvil]

how much time is left on it atm?

[unborn star]

3 weeks left

[dry anvil]

so, i should realisticly have time to finish it? thanks sinister, i want the robo-doge

[unborn star]

The only mission that probably will take you some time is getting your pets trust at 100% every day you walk around with your pet until you see a broken 💔 icon then fully feed them till the heart guage is full everytime you do it they will gain 5% trust Note: You can do this once every day a better strategy is look for fauna who are near 100% trust when you tame them

[fresh jewel]

I believe the second rendezvous planet is a volcanic planet (the third if not) and swampy planets are in at least a one of the rendezvous systems but I got that one without realizing it.

[teal drum]

is there no way to increase the explorer standing quickly? its really a waste of time and the only thing to complete the expedition..

[modern lance]

there's not really a quick way to do it. you could jump from system to system and get a bunch of missions to do at once but that's not particularly faster than just doing one mission at a time

[teal drum]

the scan mission is one of the worse. better just jumping to next system and try to stack kill creature or sentinel mission.

why create such tedious mission when we are gonna abandon this save and revert to our main save after the expedition ends.

[grand tinsel]

Your pet that you start with has 95% trust

[hot oyster]

Or 90

[edgy dock]

Eva, I'm sorry I just saw this. There's plenty of time. As Sinister said above main things you depend on that are timer dependent are companions. But that would take 48 hour wait at most depending on potential past companion cross-save rewards you may have access to. if you need tips for a speed run of sorts, bkay201#1943 can help with some of those

[dusty vale]

how much time does it take to speedrun the expedition?

[plain coyote]

I did it in the first week

[unborn star]

Its possible to do it in 2 days (well for me in my case)

[stable topaz]

There's a Xaine's World speedrun guide

[edgy dock]

@modest hemlock What would you say is a reasonable amount of time to speed run the expedition? YourDeepFear was asking

[modest hemlock]

i think that not counting the 24h for the egg, it should be quite doable under 4h

[stable topaz]

Aside from the egg thing, the time issue for most people seems to be explorers ranking, and if you stack missions for that every station you stop at, it goes really quickly. Inventory juggling is also an irritant, but again, if you just take the first freighter you get, that goes away.

[winter obsidian]

When Exobiology role

[edgy dock]

if you'd like the role, you can post or DM us a screenshot of your Phase 5 completion

[winter obsidian]

Coolio

[fresh jewel]

So I accidentally got rid of the default 95% trust companion which the expedition gives you. I notice that most of the companions I have now start at 70% trust which is a lot harder slog to 100% trust. Is there a chance of me finding an animal with more starting trust on am I doomed to slogging from 70% to 100%?

[high path]

@fresh jewel probably not but someone mentioned earlier that if you completed any of the other expeditions that gave eggs (sand worm and bio horror) that they will start out at 75%

also ive just read they can only be raised a maximum of 5% a day, apparently

[sage ermine]

hehe roundtable be round the bend

[fresh jewel]

I did and for me the horror didn't start out that high. In fact it started out lower than 70%.

[fresh jewel]

I read that too.

So the minimum you need to do to raise the trust by 5% each days it what? I'll try it on a couple creatures and see if one is progressing faster than another.

[high path]

feeding/petting and ive heard riding it around for a while

[buoyant leaf]

Suggestions for where to find ancient bones on this expedition?

I found a planet early on, but didn't realize I needed the bones, and then lost the planet in teh course of many jumps to different places

if you respond plz ping

[cunning karma]

there are a lot on the yellow swamp planet i think

[high path]

@buoyant leaf rdv 4 has a bones planet

[cunning karma]

in the rendezvous 2 system

[high path]

and yeah i think 2 as well

❤️

[high path]

there we go ^^;

[stable topaz]

The bones planet has aggressive sentinels, fyi. I dug for them in tunnels and grabbed them from underneath 😄

[buoyant leaf]

Yeah, I tried to get away and then just dug myself aunderground and sealed the hole

[high path]

dont think the one in rdv4 had aggressive sentinels

[modest hemlock]

fwiw; gijyotapor akyus in rdv4 system has bones, does not have aggressive sentinels

[delicate gyro]

Any documented s class multitool around the expedition systems?

[stable topaz]

sweet, did not know that

I mean, late for me now but yay for those who do it at this point

[modest hemlock]

i don't recall seeing anyone mentioning it, but you know, possibly! i do recall roar mentioning an a-class space station mt cache, at rdv1 or 2, he wasn't sure

[delicate gyro]

yeah! I've encountered a few a class, eventually bought one of those

[modest hemlock]

putting it simply, just spending a few seconds to a couple of minutes in each rdv system to scan all planets from orbit, is worth it 😄 glad you managed to gather bones in rdv2. curious, did you unlock and try the cloaking device MT tech? i feel that's why they added solar mirror bp to a starter system milestone

[stable topaz]

I tried it in my normal save. It doesn't last long enough to be particularly useful, was my eventual conclusion.

If you're hiding and think you might be discovered at the tail end of the search, it'll save you. Otherwise, not so much

[lofty vessel]

Fellas does trust go up by 5% each day you have your pet well-fed and happy? Do you have to check in on them each day?

I sold my first pet in the expedition by accident without knowing

[stable topaz]

It does, yes

[modest hemlock]

you should be able to complete that milestone after getting the egg

oh

[stable topaz]

I did the same thing

[modest hemlock]

yes, 5% a day, well-fed/happy, you should check on them once a day

[lofty vessel]

will do thanks

[stable topaz]

Sometimes it goes up pretty much instantly, sometimes you have to derp around for 15 minutes

[modest hemlock]

in a couple of runs, patting a couple of times was enough (after getting the egg, that is - was at 95% trust like.. 10min into the run)

[stable topaz]

Wasn't for me :/

But I had an aggressive boi

Not at all helpful or protective

Cute though

[modest hemlock]

one of the runs gave me one i believe. kept going around killing fauna that i wanted to loot

[stable topaz]

same!

[modest hemlock]

had to dismiss

[stable topaz]

I eventually just did the 5% while doing non-looting things, dismissed, and then did the looting. But I also took several days to do the expedition and you are efficient af 🙃

[modest hemlock]

spamming the "fetch" button quite a bit seemed to help though - did not completely stop him from returning to killing fauna when i wasn't looking anymore

just wish we'd see our hands doing the pointing, instead of getting kicked out to 3rd person and back again to 1st. someday 😄

[stable topaz]

Right about the same time us non-VR plebs get to see hands on our ship controls 😄

[fresh jewel]

Down to the last explorers guild mission. Now which explorers guild missions stack? Was it sentinel missions?

[knotty geode]

any tips on finding beatle companion?

I reached rn4

[edgy dock]

weird, let me check

[knotty geode]

do lemme know

and some info on abyssal horror as well, I've never heard of this before and idk how to find one

[edgy dock]

here you go, re: beetles: <#nms-legacy-ships message> in case it helps

[knotty geode]

Thanks!

[edgy dock]

for that you can go to any planet with water. there's a chance of finding them under water. i can share a screenshot of what they look like...

[knotty geode]

that would help

[edgy dock]

maybe this is a better shot but this is essentially what they look like when they try to attack you lol

When approached the eye will open and then lean over to look at the player. When the player gets into range, they will emit a glowing beam which will lift up the player and draw them in closer dealing damage and rendering the player helpless. The player can break out of the effect by rapidly pressing the E (or X button on Xbox for me).

A Hypnotic Eye drops when an Abyssal Horror is killed. It will disappear if not picked up within a few seconds of spawning.

[knotty geode]

hmm got it

i'll try looking into planets with this creature, where did you find this thing?

[edgy dock]

this particular one was not in the expedition. i'm sorry i forgot to offer this other important tip from bk201:

Abyssal Horrors spawn underwater, often near sunken abandoned buildings, or just in random locations underwater. Nautilon, the submarine exocraft, which can be unlocked by completing the Coleoptorology milestone, can scan directly for sunken abandoned buildings after its sonar tech is installed.

[knotty geode]

oh that will help! i just got nautilon from beetle achievement

thanks!

[modest hemlock]

many just focus on kill sentinels/creatures missions

scan minerals, take photo (of the same biome), deliver X amount of resource A (if the amount and resource are the same for multiple missions): these also stack

[wispy glacier]

I just finished the expedition. I am confused about orange vs blue quads, small vs big ones. What should I do to get the big one?

[fresh jewel]

Quads? As in quad servos?

[wispy glacier]

Sentinel which we get from the QS shop…

[spare jewel]

there was a bug where on regular saves you'd get a different color quad than on the expd save, that's supposedly been fixed

for size, I don't know if the genetic modifier (egg sequencer) works on the quads for size or not, you could try it

oh the quad being smaller in non expedition saves, that was fixed at the same time as the color bug, and apparently the sequencer won't let you adjust the size

[modern lance]

it does, I was able to ride the quad in my main save where I pumped it up in the sequencer

Contribution by: bkay201#1943

[cunning briar]

Yes, and they have subsequently fixed it so they should be the same size and color for ones you claim now. I'm not sure what happens to the already existing orange ones.

[fresh jewel]

Wow! Necroed that one, but thinks.

[lofty vessel]

They may have changed this. Since scan minerals and take a picture now sends you to a specific world on a specific star system. Kill creatures and sentinels still sticks but I had 2 missions with the collection of 250 paraffinnium and they didn't stack after I completed one deposit.

[modest hemlock]

no, it does stack

minerals: while each does send you to a specific planet, if you stack them, then go to one of the specific planets - optimally the one where you will need more scans will complete all others

deliver item: only works if you have the required mats/items, start the missions, but visit one of them, and do not select the other missions before reaching the target planet

you will still need to visit multiple terminals

but instead of being still in some other star system or planet, it will pick terminals in the same planet you delivered the first one in

[lofty vessel]

I see. Interesting.

[cunning karma]

lol the tracking on the egg and milk parts is horrible, its managed to somehow forget that i got over 5 giant eggs, warm proto milk, and claw milk

[fresh jewel]

Yes. I learned that when I moved the milk and eggs to the food processor. Once I moved them back it recgnized them again.

[cunning karma]

Oof I didn't try that before going back to get them

[fresh jewel]

I'm done with the expedition 5 and have collected all reward except the one with 300 seconds of jetpack flight which starts the moment you claim the reward. Been trying to think of the most fun thing to do with 5 mines of jetpack. Any ideas?

Is the 5% per day cap on companion trust increase per 1) 24 hour period from the last increase, 2) per calendar day in you time zone or 3) per 24 hour in GMT?

[modest hemlock]

24h period in game/since the last time trust increased yeah

[fresh jewel]

Is there a better way to make kill creature and kill sentinel missions spawn? They dried up for me everywhere even if I fly a thousand LY away from the expedition it seems.

[grand tinsel]

Clear missions from places

About the only way besides flying about randomly

[fresh jewel]

Do you get penalized for taking a mission and abandoning it?

[grand tinsel]

If they give you an item you lose rep

Otherwise, I don't think so

[modest hemlock]

just do other missions, even if they're not for the exp guild

that will replace them with other missions after turn in, and usually another exp guild mission will appear

[smoky crest]

@fresh jewel i claimed the jetpack reward when being on a dead planet.
Was awesome to fly really high into the orbit lol

[cunning karma]

how can i check my standing with the explorers guild

[edgy dock]

Try doing "Explorer's Guild" missions in Korvax systems, since your standing is already increased there. If you're in V or G systems, you need to level up with G or V missions before you will see "Explorer's Guild" missions to choose from.
It should be only two, maybe three, missions in Vy'Keen or Gek before you are leveled up enough.

[cunning karma]

yeah i have enough standing to get the explorers guild missions from all of them, but how do i check how much standing i have with the explorers guild?

[edgy dock]

only way i know in expeditions is checking what's the highest rank mission i can get (for each respective lifeform). maybe this page can offer more insight on ranks: https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Explorers_Guild

^^^ @modest hemlock, @heady wraith, @cedar lynx do any of you have any more insight on this, specific to Expedition?

[heady wraith]

The expedition itself only needs you to complete a set number of missions. You can check that in the milestone on the Expedition tab. Otherwise, I believe you can check guild ranks the same way you check ranks with the various races, which is on the Milestone tab on the "pause" screen

[edgy dock]

yeah, i don't remember seeing the milestone tab in Expeditions. that's why i figured i should ask.

[heady wraith]

It might not be there, not sure. For the Expedition, though, you just need 16 missions with the Explorer's Guild, doesn't matter what level they are

[edgy dock]

^^^ @cunning karma

[edgy dock]

ty so much, Tyndall

[cunning karma]

oh ok thanks

[cunning karma]

what happens to our saves once the expedition is over? they just become a normal save?

would doing anything while its still open (besides completing it obv) benefit your main save?

[edgy dock]

Once the expedition event itself ends, the save will convert to Normal mode (when you open it and save it). Players can continue to play with that save, doing the main questlines like in other game modes. The rewards you get from the expedition (the ones you get from completing phases, that can be claimed at the QS store in the Space Anomaly), those are cross-save and you can claim them in any and all other saves.

[cunning karma]

ah ok

one of the explorers guild missions sent me to a system to take a photo of a "strange world" what does that mean?

[grand tinsel]

An exotic probably

What are the planet types there?

[cunning karma]

paradise, abandoned, poisonous, empty, and frozen

[grand tinsel]

Try the abandoned, and when you switch missions in the log- the popup will have more details. So switch away and back to that mission if that isn't the planet

[cunning karma]

there i finally completed the expedition

should i put it in the egg modifier in the anomaly or just hatch it as it is in my main save

or is that just personal preference for the aesthetics of it

followed the speedrunning guide and tried to stick to it as much as possible

[cunning karma]

i tried putting it in the sequencer but all the things were locked

[snow moat]

second RV point is not showing up for me. How can I find it?

[compact meteor]

Can't find the system, or can't find the RV point itself on the planet?

[snow moat]

I don't get a marker for it in the system. I am in the right system

don't know which planet

[compact meteor]

it's on Joycer

I dropped a red/white save beacon on it, it's at -34, -136 ish

sometimes, I had to select something else in my log, and then go back to the expedition and select the RV point for it to show up

[snow moat]

thanks. I logged out now but I should be able to find it now

[winged tusk]

Interesting. Someone set up a base at the rendezvous 5 location and they were on the space anomaly. I just ported to what looked like an unusual planet and it turned out to be the location of the final rendezvous so I've got the rendezvous 5 expedition milestone checked off and I've only been to the second rendezvous legit so far. But hey I'll take it!

[sturdy kernel]

Is it the eye abyssal horror I gotta break free of or the jellyfish?

[pearl glacier]

The eye horror

How many cakes do I need to give Cronus to "impress" him?

[winged tusk]

You can give him the same cake multiple times, just get in and out of your ship to make a save then go up to him and give him the cake. If he is not completely satisfied just reload the auto save and keep trying.

[spare jewel]

it doesn't even have to be a cake

any food that has several steps to processing, as long as you trip the rng (once every 3-4 times)

[solid lark]

Like what

[quick herald]

If it doesnt have to be cake, then the easiest to make is probably Iced Screams. Takes a Hypnotic Eye and a Frost Crystal. The hypnotic eyes can be acquired from the eyeball abyssal horrors underwater (iirc, thats part of a milestone)

[modest hemlock]

and completing digestive analysis milestone from phase 2 will reward the hazmat gauntlet bp (though it's cheap to unlock in the space anomaly)

[grizzled idol]

Which missions do you have to do for the jetpack?

[modest hemlock]

complete phase 4:

phase 4
reward: exotic wingpack

milestone: rendezvous 4 -54.49,-152.37 (holoterminus)
reward: 1k nanites, exosuit expansion, multitool expansion, storage aug

milestone: coleopterology - adopt a beetle
reward: nautilon chamber bp, nautilon tech bps, nautilon drive mod

milestone: companionship - adopt companions (3)
reward: a-class underwater mod x2, oxygen x1234

milestone: eyes in the reeds - discover creature in a swamp biome
reward: s-class hazard prot mod, ion battery x25

milestone: marine biology - discover underwater creatures (10)
reward: terrifying sample, s-class scanner mod, lost bathysphere

milestone: what lurks below - escape the embrace of an abyssal horror
reward: s-class boltcaster mod, s-class neutron cannon mod, s-class blaze jav mod, weapon bps

milestone: valuable data - earn 200k units in one scan
reward: quicksilver x600, exosuit expansion x3

[grizzled idol]

Thanks

[winter obsidian]

is phase 5 worth completing? Ive already got the posters and the wingpack

[grizzled idol]

Only if you want the robo doggo, which you can get from an egg from another player

[spare jewel]

having the dog on every save forever, probably fun enough to justify it

[hoary coral]

I'm struggling with the Terrestrial Snaps challenge where I have to take a screenshot of 10 animals

Does it work if some of them are dead ?

[high path]

@hoary coral not sure about that. just try to find a planet that seems well populated, find a group and throw out a pellet

dont feed an individual one, toss the pellet to feed the whole group

[hoary coral]

that's what I've been doing. Wasted around 30 pellets and even if I got 10 or more the snap mechanic doesn't seem to be very accurate

Doesn't recognize all 10 of them

[high path]

try planets Raymr or Joycer. raymr is in rdv1 system, joycer in rdv2

check the pins if you need help finding your way back to those systems

(use teleporters to return to the stations)

[hoary coral]

I'm currently in the rdv1 system on the lush planet

The one where the rdv base is at

[high path]

well read through this tip, see if it helps #nms-legacy-ships message

[hoary coral]

Tnx !

Okay like

Uh

How many missions do I need to do for explorers guild

Is it 16 mission rep or is it 16 rank

[modern lance]

you need to do 1 missions for the explorers guild

[solid lark]

Okay I really liked this one base I found in expedition

But I can't remember the planets

It was a giant square ring centered around a landing pad, with a room branching off for a wall of carbon grows and like five antimatter generators

It was literally just called something like "Carbon and Antimatter"

It was very early in the expedition I think

[harsh minnow]

Anyone able to help with this expedition?

[cobalt bear]

You can use space station or anomaly portal, just look for space station at Xandrov VIII

[hollow stratus]

word, thanks

planets that have been renamed make this harder for me - maybe i should have done it in order and checked the pins

[hollow stratus]

Google Fu tells me that Craw Milk comes from flying fauna - accurate? I don't see Craw Milk listed at all in the pins for Rdv points.

[edgy dock]

past notes from bkay201#1943 in case it helps

Catickl G25 rdv1: tall eggs, fresh milk, wild milk
Joycer rdv2: creature egg, fresh milk, wild milk, warm proto-milk
Tifiell Major rdv2: creature egg, fresh milk, wild milk, warm proto-milk
New Muleighle rdv3: giant egg, creature egg, wild milk
Obluch II (near rdv3): craw-milk
Gijyotapor Akyus rdv4: fresh milk, wild milk, warm proto-milk

there's also a pin for beetles from which you can get craw milk

[spare jewel]

you

ll probably find at one of the space stations at a rendevous planet, bases "craw milk here" and such

that's also a good way to get it done if you are in a hurry

[edgy dock]

Butterflies, beetles and proto flyers give craw milk

[spare jewel]

but you will want beetles later anyways (check the milestones)

[hollow stratus]

You guys and gals are all crazy helpful. Thank you so much.

[cyan slate]

I guess I am too late to start and finish the 5th expidition

[hollow stratus]

I've seen people saying they got it all done in like 10 hours or something like that... I bet you can do it.

it finishes apr 4, you can do it!

[hollow schooner]

this is the most tiring exp so far

not counting first cause haven't tried it

[spare jewel]

the first, redux, was cut back a lot from the first original

the third I got a bad spawn in which really made it the most unpleasant of the bunch

this one here was a bit tedious for those explorer guild missons, but otherwise pretty chill

I believe that adding Analysis Visor upgrades will raise the amount of units earned from scanning a creature. Exotic animals tend to give the highest rewards.

[opal eagle]

Any hints on finding a Deep Space Sentience?

[high path]

@opal eagle one of the other milestones right before that one gives a detector thingy

[gleaming jacinth]

Not related to the actual expedition tips, but I'm finding this in the expedition and Im confused: Who is Sean Mark? In the path between rendezvous points, there's several planets seemingly named because of his death, but I cant find who it is on google

[modest hemlock]

as jihiro mentioned, complete Ancestors milestone phase 5, then craft the deep space lure item, use it, then pulse until hailed

[gleaming jacinth]

The planet names are "In Memory of Sean Mark" "He will remain in our hearts" and "Sean Mark loved animals, especially cats"

[grand tinsel]

No idea

[grizzled idol]

Probably related to another player

Maybe Craig Mark's brother

[gleaming jacinth]

Probably

[cedar gorge]

Nani

[cerulean panther]

Does anyone have the portal coordinates for that grass planet in the first rendezvous system?

I’m trying to set up a base there in my normal play through that I’m gonna be doing soon

[high path]

@cerulean panther the portal coords of each rdv is listed in the pins

[cerulean panther]

Okay sweet thanks

[gleaming jacinth]

Does a gaseous sentience not count towards the deep-space sentience milestone?

I just met one and no reward

[modern lance]

Sean Mark is Sean Murray's second clone

[modest hemlock]

need to use the deep space lure (obtained from the Ancestors milestone) to spawn it

[grizzled idol]

Where's the swamp planet?

[cerulean panther]

No clue

Actually I lied

If you go to the planet we found where you can get beetle companions (check pinned messages) theres a “Quagmire” planet, just scan on of the creatures in there and boom ur set

[grizzled idol]

Thanks

[gleaming jacinth]

But I met it naturally without lure. You have to use the lure to get the milestone?

[compact meteor]

I believe so; I did the same thing and didn't get the milestone until I first used the lure.

a week to go before this expd save turns into a normal one at last

[grizzled idol]

I'm a couple of quests away from the jetpack

[winter obsidian]

I was wondering just now doing all the expeditions, do we have do to do expeditions on a new save ?

[hazy relic]

I'm having trouble with an exosuit expansion unit. I go to the locker looking thing in a station and the option is missing.

I got it working but I had to purchase a slot for 5k units first.

[heady wraith]

With this expedition you have to buy a slot for the expansion units to work (for some reason)

[winter obsidian]

Does the rewards you get from expedition go over to another save?

[spare jewel]

JellyMan, every expedition is done on a fresh save

but the phase rewards (backpack. quad dog. etc) are ones you can claim later on any save, once per save

[winter obsidian]

Thank you apergos, I appreciate the help

For the photo mode, does nms know when I take a ss or can I just open the camera option

Like how does that even work cuz stg I have 10 creatures in it

[spare jewel]

photo mode and if you're on console you can't hold the share button to take it, you have to tap the share button and let the bottom menu pop up to take the screenshot

that's generally true of photo missions

[winter obsidian]

AHH why is this so hard to do

Bro this is so stupid

Any tips to get these animals near me

[compact meteor]

What worked for me was to drop a bunch of Creature Pellets on the ground. If you go to your quick menu, to the Creatures (pawprint) menu, there should be an icon for Creature Pellets, if you have some in your inventory. If you activate that icon from the quick menu, you drop pet food on the ground instead of giving it to one directly.

That helped them gather up. Then, I went into photo mode, moved the camera around, and spammed shots until I got it.

[winter obsidian]

For sure thank you so much man

If anyone needs milk or eggs for the exped (wrapping up soon) I will be sitting at the RDV3 point for the next hour or so sharing what surplus I have

[deep tusk]

is this expedition's rewards totally cosmetic?

[edgy dock]

except the sentinel doggo

[tough marten]

sentinel doggo is best pet

[compact meteor]

I wish we could pet other people's pets 🙂

[heavy nest]

Ooof, I was trying to get one of the Expedition milestone done (Reach Explorers Guild level 16) before the end of the event. Apparently you only get those missions in the space station if you're in somewhat good standing with the system's main race.

Long story short, don't go to town at the frigates and freighters in a piracy frenzy before doing that lol

[compact meteor]

Haha, yeah

At least, you can hop to a different system to get a different race, which may help

[heavy nest]

I checked my savegame in a save editor, I was like -186 reputation with the Vy'keen, woopsies

[compact meteor]

ouuuuch

[heavy nest]

And just -24 with the Gek, so at least I could salvage that one.

Thing is, in an Expedition save you can't see the info, since the Expedition tab takes the place of the reputation and stats tab (I don't recall its actual name)

[compact meteor]

Milestones, I think, but yeah

[winter obsidian]

How do u find that system? Do u just like search around?

[compact meteor]

I can't speak for OP, but in that first photo it shows the Limaav-Dolmu system, which is the Rendezvous 1 system, so it's not that far off the expedition path. Probably just came across it while making their way toward the RDV point.

[winter obsidian]

Ahh for sure for sure. Thanks for the help

[spare jewel]

striders (tall two legged critters) have them

I believe the r3? planet has them, aggro sentinels though.

[winter obsidian]

Is there a way for me to know which system is r3?

[spare jewel]

yes, there's a list of all the systems that the bot can give but I don't remember the command to show it

[winter obsidian]

Finishing up the expedition? For the next hour or so, I'll be at the Rendezvous 3 point on New Muleighle, sharing extra eggs, milk, cake batter, etc. Good luck out there!

[winged tusk]

I beat the expedition without having to make an Indium drive because someone apparently made a base at the site of rendezvous 5 so when I ported over it just put me on that planet in front of the portal and I was able to go to the space station to come back later if I wanted. 😅

[devout hemlock]

Just grinding explorers missions left for me. The worst

[desert bramble]

I have explorers missions and cooking left

I'm leaving cooking for the end

Btw in case you haven't noticed

The egg milestone gives you larval cores

Which can be used to bake some cakes cronus apparently really likes

[swift steeple]

Is the multi-mission stack completion patched for explorer's guild?

[desert bramble]

I don't think so

I don't think it was even unintended

[stable topaz]

Yeah, I do that in my non-expedition saves. (and of course I did in the expedition too 🙃)Can't see why it would be an issue, tbh.

[spare jewel]

missions are meant to stack afaik

[short cape]

is there a way to check my standing ? I swear i have done over 10 missions for explorer and still cant do a level 4 mission

[high path]

not while in expeditions unfortunately ^^;

[spare jewel]

they hide the milestones tab sadly

[worn acorn]

Why do you have to collect so many dung samples

Also can I just pick up like 10 of the same mission and then complete them all at the same time

[compact meteor]

Sort of. The "Deliver X item" missions you can kind of stack, but you'll still have to make multiple deliveries. The "Scan X Creatures (or minerals)" are the easiest to stack; flag the one with the most and you'll fulfill the others along the way. I tend to avoid the "Client desires a photo of X" missions because they can be frustratingly specific about meeting the requirements (without telling you explicitly what those are).

And, yeah it's still... a lot, but you can get a good jump on the dung collecting by tossing a bunch of creature pellets on the ground, and hopefully fill the quests for feeding 10+ creatures at a time, and taking a photo with 10+ creatures.

[worn acorn]

How do you toss them on the ground?

[compact meteor]

If you have creature pellets in your inventory, access your quick menu (X on keyboard, or down on D-pad), from there choose the Creature Companions menu (pawprint), and then you should get an icon for Creature Pellets. Use it, and you'll toss a food on the ground, rather than feed it directly to an animal.

One use in this way can feed multiple animals.

(and now I've got the Cookie Cat song stuck in my head...)

[spare jewel]

you can also stack the 'cull creatures' missions (for which bio horrors and the jellies that come when you mine underwater, count)

[stable topaz]

Cull creatures/feed creatures/kill sentinels were super easy to stack (for me). I hit a few systems off the beaten path and knocked it out really quickly.

[compact meteor]

Greetings, interlopers! For about an hour, I'll be hanging out at the RDV3 point on New Muleighle, sharing extra eggs, milk, cake batter, etc. for the expedition. Good luck!

[spare jewel]

craw milk is from the flying beetles and from butterfly-things. proto milk is from protogeks (bipedal sort of teddy bear with the beak, those ones)

"bipedal sort of teddy bear with the beak" is the best Gek description ever 😄

Try for the exotics on Ecitis XI in the RDV4 system, Loemfor

Also make sure you have a couple S-class Analysis Visor upgrades, as those will increase units received when scanning

Hail, interlopers! If you need milk, eggs, or cake mix for the expedition, I'll be at RDV3 point on New Muleighle for the next hour, maybe two, sharing extras. Good luck out there!

To find beetles: Go to Rendezvous 3 system Xandrov VIII, open the galaxy map and use the life form filter. 29LY away, there is a Vy’keen system called Obluch II which will be red with the filter enabled. They are on the planet named Igglet.
See image below

Oh that’s helpful

[grand tinsel]

That planet will have beetles and butterflies, both with craw milk

[red pike]

Considering I am currently at Rendezvous 3

Nice

Thanks

[grand tinsel]

No problem

[red pike]

So I already visited a radioactive planet, a volcanic and an unusual planet (don’t know if those are the correct words) That means I have to visit a swamp planet and a… what’s the last one called?

[grand tinsel]

I really don't remember tbh

What's it say on the milestone?

I only know the German words cause well, I am German but I believe it was called airless planet

Oh it’s phase 2. Visit 5 different environments or something like that

phase 3 done, time to finish up phase 2, 4 and 5 and be done with this woo

btw is the bot time more accurate than in-game timer?

[edgy dock]

bot's timer is based on game file. game's "time remaining" seems to be rounded off...

[cloud plank]

ah, that would explain things. Thanks for the answer!

so I can safely also do the expedition tomorrow and on monday, right?

[edgy dock]

best of luck! def let us know if you need help with any of the milestones

[edgy dock]

yeah, as long as players have started the save file 48 hours before that "end time", you have till then to finish it

[cloud plank]

ah I started it ages ago hah

good to know

[edgy dock]

just beware of any timers associated with companions and eggs

[cloud plank]

I finished that early on

[edgy dock]

same. i've been a slow poke finishing it up myself

[cloud plank]

egg sequenced, pet to 100% trust done

[edgy dock]

smort

[edgy dock]

nice!

[cloud plank]

since nothing else is time based as far as I remember

[edgy dock]

the guild missions were time consuming for some too. so make sure to pick up a ton of those along the path with same objective so you can get them done at the same time sorta thing

[cloud plank]

ah yea I'm gonna do pretty much those at the end, dedicating a day for that

prolly tmr or on monday

as shit, 16 rep? that's honestly brutal

[edgy dock]

yeah, one of the toughies for many. hence why it's best picking up a bunch of those missions from every korvax system space station at least, preferably the ones that are culling creatures, and save them up till you're ready to do their objectives

[cloud plank]

I will however not claim the finished up phase rewards

for now

as I kinda did an oopsie with mods and I need to recover my main save from my desktop pc

this will definitely involve me screwing out the wifi antennas, playing it offline once to make the save appear "fresher" to the cloud, very carefully backing up the existing save set, screwing them back in, letting it sync, switching out the corrupted synced save for the proper one and praying it works

and if it works, then I will claim the rewards

[spare jewel]

ouch ouch ouch

[cloud plank]

possibly, would disconnecting before launching work? maybe
but I have no idea when Steam syncs the saves

so I want to be EXTRA safe

(if anyone is curious what went down: didn't know a mission skip was included in the package, removed the mod, few missions restart, "wtf", check, oh they got reset by the mod)

[spare jewel]

hope you get it all sorted

[cloud plank]

question, what lies in the sea? or something like that phase 4 mission

do I need the horror to catch me first

because I killed one without its ray beam doing things and it didnt count

[compact meteor]

You need to ||get caught in the eye beam|| and then ||struggle to escape|| (you'll get a prompt for how to)

Keep it well-fed and pet it to keep its affection full. It does take some time, but the companion you started with starts at like 80% so you ought to be able to do it. Just, keep checking on it and don't let its hunger or affection get into the yellow, keep 'em both full or in the green

[tropic solar]

oh

will i make it in like two days lol

[compact meteor]

should

[spare jewel]

it starts at 90 or 95%

you summon it, pet and feed it to fill the meters once

dismiss

repeat the next day

5% each day, that's it

yes you will make it in two days.

again, summon once each day, that's all you need.

Some people have said 10-11 hours, possibly less. Some of it can take some time, esp the explorer mission rep grind. And, as it is ending very, very soon, I want to say if you haven't started the save 48 hours prior to the schedule end time, it won't let you start? (I think...)

just remember to start the save, summon the "starter pet", pet him till he gets 95% trust and get the lad to lay an egg

[edgy dock]

checked game and it says 2 hours remaining cuz it's rounding off, but it should technically be 2 hours 58'ish minutes remaining to start the new save

after that, the game will lock new save file creation

[compact meteor]

Hail, interlopers! I'll be hanging out at RDV3 on New Muleighle for the next hour or two, sharing extra eggs, milk, cake mix, and whatnot for the expedition. If you're on console and can't chat, wave at me and do the "I need resources!" gesture, and we'll get ya set up. Good luck out there!

also sending here, portal glyphs for the beetle planet as it has some kewl flying creatures you may wanna get as a pet on your main save!

I know I will get a butterfly from there once I fix up my main save

had made a save the previous weekend, but had no time to play it

youll need to share friends code and join each other that way

I thought the planets and space stations etc were all in the same instance, that it was only the anomaly that had multiple instances

im joining thru multiplayer

im by no means a MP expert since i never use it but i think theres a limit to how many people can be in the same place

i want to say 32? but idk

ok. I'm wrapping up for the night soon, but if you're still looking tomorrow, feel free to ping me and we can meet. Good luck with the rest of the exped!

[solid lark]

Fairly certain I can crank those out tomorrow

I notice some creatures don't give dung which is

if it helps anyone here, there's a swamp planet in a Gek system called Hohoeli super near Rdv 5 system (really pretty too) - planet's name is Rysitho V33 (Endless Morass). way i found it was by picking up an explorers guild mission that had me take a photo in a marsh/swamp planet, so the game pointed me to it

man the only one i havent gotten is the trust one from phase 2: /

im at like 95% with the first companion anyone know how to get that like 5% done fast?

[spare jewel]

summon it, feed and pet it until meteres full, dismiss, wait 24 hours

that's the 5%

it's that much every dau

day

and actually you should check the register right after you dismiss to see if it gives it to you immediately or 24h after but there is a 24h wait between increases

[winter obsidian]

if i deploy a base in this save can i come back to that base on another save?>

[grand tinsel]

It won't be owned by that other save, but yes

[spare jewel]

I think bases you create on one save ar enot visible to you on another from the same account, no?

[eager panther]

Does anyone know what the time-line usually is for a new expedition to begin once one ends?

[spare jewel]

it really depends

[eager panther]

Hmk hmk...

[spare jewel]

could be a couple weeks, could be after the switch update

[eager panther]

Oh that long eh

Ok

[spare jewel]

https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/List_of_Expeditions some past history (you'll need to look up the updates that came out in between)

[eager panther]

Thanks!

[spare jewel]

sure!

[eager panther]

Darn I thought it was quicker haha

Guess I'll horde quicksilver for now

[spare jewel]

get your frigates in order, make sure you have a nice stash of nanites, all the usual stuff...

[eager panther]

Yea for sure

[spare jewel]

you know that each expedition is on a new save, right?

[eager panther]

Yep

[spare jewel]

ok 🙂

[eager panther]

But the unlocks from the quicksilver vendor are on every save ya?

[spare jewel]

yes they are

[eager panther]

Primo 👌

[spare jewel]

yes, that's a really nice feature

[eager panther]

Glad I came back to this game... been a long time

[spare jewel]

it used to be you hand to grind for all of those on every save, absurd

welcome back!

[eager panther]

Weird

[cloud plank]

wait they are?

so I can actually use the quicksilver I got from some expedition mission

in the vendor and get something cool?

oh sickk

[spare jewel]

uh

you can't transfer the quicksilver itself

but if you get a nonconsumable (not a void egg, not fireworks)

then that is available on all your saves. every single one.

get some cosmetic item like a banner or a helmet? avaialble on all saves. a base part? available on all saves. etc.

[cloud plank]

didn't know that

I thought the quicksilver was useless but apperantely that's not the case! thanks for the info

[spare jewel]

sure!

[spare jewel]

that's the one I need to memorize, clearly

[edgy dock]

you can also type !expedition and the bot will tell you

[spare jewel]

I just have to remember to type out the whole word

[solid lark]

Can you send a pick please

Oh oh found it

Okay it's in a big cluster of gek systems, 160 Lys from r5

[edgy dock]

yay! so glad you found it. was a nice find, cuz it's a beautiful planet too

[solid lark]

There's like four of five other gek systems near it

But the LY is the most important part

I hate PlayStation

Screenshots are so annoying to work with on PS

That's three milestones done there

Aquatic, swamp creatyre, and swamp planey

[cloud plank]

Update: fuxk

It syncs immediately on steam launch

And unscrewing the wifi antennas didnt stop it from connecting to my wifi

Gotta save edit my save then, to make it appear as if I completed the missions that got reset

[edgy dock]

sweeet! thank you so much for adding more info in case it helps anyone else

[solid lark]

How do I make a cake

[spare jewel]

if you pin the milestone it should give you instructions, but this presumes you have flour from the previous milestone reward

do you?

[solid lark]

No

No butter either

[spare jewel]

if not, go get some: frost crystal -> glass grains -> flour in the nutrient process, or

heptaploid wheat -> flour in the nutrient processor

[solid lark]

But if it gives recipe from milestone I'll do that

[spare jewel]

and get milk

hmm maybe sugar too (sweetroot processed)

[solid lark]

Still need warm proto milk

[spare jewel]

https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Cake_Batter

you don't have to have proto-milk for the cake batter but you do need i for the one milestone

[solid lark]

Ywah

You need all the milk in your inventory iirc

Yesh

You need all 20 milk in your inventory at once for the milestone

[spare jewel]

unfortunately so

[compact meteor]

Raven, I still have extra eggs, milk, and cake batter if you want to add me and meet up

[solid lark]

Nah

Just finished them

All that's left is explorers rep and ugh cronus

[compact meteor]

I think it still works that if you auto-save before feeding Cronus, you can reload if he's not thrilled

[solid lark]

Yeah I know

Doesn't make it any more fun

[fresh jewel]

I finished the expedition a week or two ago, but have claimed my 5 minute jetpack ride. Thinking of going to a low grav airless planet and launching my traveler into orbit. Anyone other cool ideas I should consider?

[high path]

@fresh jewel from what i remember, it doesnt work the way youre probably thinking

you wont continue to go up and up like when you normally jetpack, instead it will be like you hit a ceiling and then your only movement will be horizontal

also you need to make sure you claim that reward so you can complete the whole expedition

its ending in like 18 hours or so

[fresh jewel]

Not to worry. They're all complete and that one is the only reward I've not claimed. I've claimed all others including all phase rewards. On the final page is says it's complete.

hmm i guess i misremembered how it worked xD

11h to do explorers missions...

eh I can do it

[spare jewel]

yes you can

I did the slowest thing possible, went to all stations and then jumped to new ones to stack a single kind of mission. and then did the one mission for all 16 at once. took betwen 2 and 3 hours, I stoppped to collect graves on the way. you can be much faster and less selective in stacking too
