thanks

i tried checking the pins but as the usual discord user im too lazy

no hate to anyone just wanted to throw a quick jab at no one here

yk

cuz im the one thats lazy

thanks though

[proper ridge]

Just finished the expedition, will the hatchling cross over to my main save?

[opal glade]

yes

[snow ruin]

You claim it from merchant like a lot of other rewards

[proper ridge]

Ok thank y’all, I’m still new to the game and this is my first expedition

[opal glade]

if you hatched the hatchling you won't get it transferred

its practically its own animal

[snow ruin]

It'll still be claimable as an egg on all saves

[opal glade]

yeah

if you made evolution edits to your egg though it won't carry over

if that was on anyone's mind

[clear moat]

Hi

How do I transfer stuff to my main save now that I have finished the expedition?

the save no longer counts as an expedition? and I cannot do anything at anomaly terminal?

[lusty slate]

Liquidators doesn't end until September. And we don't know about expeditions until they're released. HG aren't big on dev calenders. They usually don't tell us what's planned ahead of time.

[lethal mirage]

I stopped doing my part for the entire 5th stage... Now im just one of the liquidators at the abandoned structures

[lusty slate]

Did you start the expedition from the Anomaly terminal? Then yes, when you finish and return, you can't go back. You can claim the phase rewards from the quicksilver vendor nearby the expedition terminal.

[lethal mirage]

final total killcount

[lusty slate]

If you started a fresh save for the expedition, the save auto converts to a normal save when the expedition finishes. You can claim the phase rewards on your main save through the quicksilver vendor at the Anomaly.

[clear moat]

And common items?

[dusty elm]

It sure looks like it could be a broodling haha.. Cool looking spider.

[ornate wing]

You can pack some items with you if your going back to another save.

Including a ship and multi-tool

Fresh saves just revert and it's like you just unlocked the main quest

[orchid cave]

I'm going to make my expedition save my main save. Do I need to craft the exomech tech before ending the expedition?

[coral cove]

i need some help, can i join someone?

only that, i need to join someone in the first galaxy of the game

[fickle night]

Have you unlocked Anomaly? Anomaly has Teleporter on the left wing, top 5 favorited base are on different galaxy

[coral cove]

already fixed it

I couldn't load my save

game crashed every time

[wraith junco]

😈

[pearl hamlet]

it's there a bug for exomech? after i'm done with the expedition , can't find it anywhere

[sleek siren]

wait for the patch. it's supposedly already addressed in the experimental

[pearl hamlet]

alright thx for the clarification 👍

[viscid hazel]

Are the exped rewards worth?

[opal glade]

errrrr

what do you consider worth?

cuz some people like bugs

so they like the insect armor appearance or the bug helms

there is teh liquidator minotaur armor that has the flamethrower

[viscid hazel]

Do you have a ss of rewards?

[opal glade]

Still working on the expedition?

[opal glade]

??? optional milestones are done mate

[wraith junco]

The bug armor reminds me grounded game

[upbeat fulcrum]

when you started from the main save you have the same slots in the expedition terminal in the anomaly to return stuff ...

[turbid folio]

wrong chat mb

[main dove]

my expeditions all got wiped updating from PS4 to PS5. I hope I'll be able to redo the old ones. I lost all my old stuff. Supposedly there's a save transfer function but it doesn't appear to be working.

[meager scroll]

There were some reports about PS save transfer not working, yeah

Me and my Minotaur blew walkers head off, now one more to go and expedition completed.
((Never ever ))would have made it this far without this groups help, so appreciated!! 🤩

[clear moat]

@lusty slate I think I started the expedition upon my friends invitation, f.e I didn't get to transfer any items into expedition... does this mean I have to redo it ?

Ohh I think this is what happened. Well what a waste, one more reason to dislike expeditions 😦

Can't check now, will I get the minotaur tech on the main save?

[crystal iris]

Your Mech looks huge next to you. Or is perspective? Nice photo.
Did you blow the head off in one shot? That's pretty good.
You must have pretty good damage levels on weapons.

[dusty elm]

Not in one shot. The Minotaur was firing at him, so I aimed at his head and not sure what I was using at the moment because it all happens so fast. Here's what I used thru-out the whole walker killing thing. Pulse spitter, plasma launcher and one that paralyzes. The last 2x killing the walkers was more difficult for me.

[dusty elm]

Yes, I followed a bunch of advice from lots of people in here. I can post a screenshot of what it has loaded if you like.

Completed the expedition. 🙂 Thanks again everyone.

Think I'll stay a bit longer and build. Do I have a deadline to finalize the expedition at the Space Anatomy terminus?

Best to turn it in before that date ^^

[lethal mirage]

Is it just me or is the starting planet suddenly a angry sentinel planet

[left ether]

im confused, i cant find how to install the new liquidator upgrades onto my mech.
it says they're already claimed in the anomaly and i've taken off all my hardframe stuff in case they can't overlap (which would make sense) but none of the liquidator ones show up still. did i miss something?

correction: i did find and install the liquidator right arm, but thats it. the others arent there

[meager scroll]

Known issue, should be fixed in next patch

[left ether]

ahhh i see, ty

[full orchid]

Can anyone please give me a few tips for "fire in the hole". I am struggling to hit 4 at a time. Thank you in advance.

[dusty elm]

Thanks!

[meager scroll]

Find an abandoned outpost, take the high ground, break the egg, when you see the bio horrors spawning fire the grenade

[full orchid]

Thank you! I'll give that a try. It isn't working from the ground. 😂

[coarse marsh]

Tbh lol I got that accidentally

My exomech did it for me

[tribal jay]

so I've already done the expedition on my main save, if I were to complete it a second time on a temporary save would I be able to get the minotaur cosmetics for free on my main save?

[tidal moth]

If you're doing the expedition with a friend and get to the point where you need to lure 3 deep sea monstrosities, you'll have to do 3 for each friend since it's whoever grabbed the bulb that gets the progress. But fun fact: if you time it right, multiple people can grab multiple different bulbs at the same time, spawning multiple angler fish dudes and then you all get the same progress for one angler fish find

[elder silo]

Guys how do you get glass walls?

[worn finch]

I've come into the Exp14 a bit late bit going to go as far as I can. I notice a lot of well-established bases on the starter planet already. Have they mostly been built by players since the start of the expedition, or is the starter planet fairly well established already for a player group? Been away from the game for quite a while, so this is the first expedition I've attempted since one of the very first...

[ebon wyvern]

yeah, most of the bases on that planet are from players

the system where the starter planet is filled with players

[worn finch]

Thanks, I can see that already. What I'm asking is whether the bases have been built since the start of the expedition as they are quite advanced, or has the system been popular, and so the bases have been there for a while already, before the start of the expedition?

[ebon wyvern]

well, both

[slender wraith]

Hi. Is it safe or even possible to use glyph portals on expedition?

[ebon wyvern]

i havent played the expedition, i plan to play the next tho, im not sure ill enjoy this one

but from what ive heard its been there since its a hotspot

[worn finch]

Gotcha.. ty

[slim wagon]

How big does the brood pet get? Still waiting for mine to be an adult before I try to increase size

[faint mesa]

As tall as a small gek I guess.

Perhaps more... I need to check. 😅

But not very big, anyway.

[mint pivot]

My drop point 4 and 5 are bugged

[wraith junco]

Its possible to use glyphs but u need to gather them first from travellers. Imo u will finish the exp way faster before u gather the glyphs.

[mint pivot]

Four not showing up and I did 5 but it don't show me the infection stronghold

[cold tulip]

Multiplayer off?

[remote thunder]

also, elaborate on 4 not showing up

if you can see expedition route pathline in the galaxy map when you've got it selected, then you must be able to find the system with the expedition icon on it

[snow ruin]

Expedition is separate from normal game modes, so all player bases made in expedition is only visible to other people on the expedition. At the same time bases from people in normal game modes are not visible to people in the expedition.

[mint pivot]

No

[cold tulip]

Mp tends to bug stuff like that

[mint pivot]

how do i turn of MP

[cold tulip]

Network settings

[mint pivot]

ok

[mint pivot]

can someone help me get to the dropzone 4

[valid zenith]

Has anyone else finished the expedition but still doesn't have access to the poster or bughunter trophy base decorations?

The quicksilver vendor shows that I have them but they're not in any of my build menus.

[blissful onyx]

Have you completed each reward step or just the optionals

Oh

Didn't read ur 2nd msg

Try reloading your game maybe

[valid zenith]

Everything, every step. It was a new expedition save that converted to a regular save when I finished.

[blissful onyx]

Hm, you should definitely have it then

[valid zenith]

Already reloaded, restarted, all that. I finished it like a week ago.

[blissful onyx]

Maybe they have to be researched?

I'm not sure on that

If they aren't in any build menu

[tawny hatch]

I completed the expedition in a new save. Can I do it on my main save to get more quicksilver ?

[indigo falcon]

yes you cna. it's only 505 quicksilver though, you would b ebetter off just doing the weekend mission

[tawny hatch]

Ok, glad to know that. thanks

[ancient field]

Hey guys, Completed the expedition but I didn't get the liquidator pieces? I achieved all the optional quests.

[thick umbra]

Its a bug .. and has been already fixed in experimental version

[floral needle]

any1 found a 12+ agro fauna yet i need help

[meager scroll]

Check the pinned messages

[floral needle]

u need to take em off the mech and put them in transfer inventory

[junior shard]

Can we get the liquidator upgrades outside the expedition?

from the optional rewards?

[meager scroll]

Yes though currently it's bugged

Should be fixed with next patch

Alternatively you can buy those parts with QS if you have some to spare

[junior shard]

so if I unlock them in the expeditoin I should be able to get them on the main save?

when it gets fixed?

[meager scroll]

Yup

[junior shard]

nice

are corrupt sentinels supposed to roam dissonant worlds instead of regular sentinels?

havent found one yet

[meager scroll]

Yes they can be found in the wild

But you can trigger them by picking up a gravitino ball

[ancient field]

Yes, On the galactic map systems with dissonent worlds will be labeled dissonent instead of "water" or whatever. Head to them and just look around, you'll find one pretty soon.

[junior shard]

good tip for gravitino

didn't think of them

that's the 32 sentinels

now just 20 more sentinels for optional 5 and 4 walkers and I'm done

[ancient field]

If you ever need a quick way to start a sent fight, Just use your walker and scan for a resource depot. Pretty much what I did

[junior shard]

AI autopoilot vs monstrosities is cool to watch from a roof lmao

picked a high sentinel world for the walkers, no gravitino or walkers in sight for now lol

brb

[oblique lichen]

Do you have to claim the optional milestone parts or are they blueprints that autounlock when you complete the expedition?

[snow ruin]

Think you have to claim them, but I'm not certain. But it's what would make sense programmatically to me

[meager scroll]

There is always an option to buy these blueprints from QS shop

[oblique lichen]

I've completed the expedition twice, the first time was on my main save and I didn't complete the optional milestones, so I made a second save where I did do the optional milestones but it didn't give me like the option to terminate the expedition, I just instantly landed in a normal game.

Nvm I found it, the blueprints are in the actual QS instead of 'claim expedition rewards'

[quaint urchin]

You could start the Expedition off of your main and double dip Quicksilver. Complete the weekend Nexus mission for 1800 on the Expedition save, then switch to your main and do it again for another 1800. At the end of the Expedition all of that from the Expedition save will transfer to your main.

You can net 3600 Quicksilver per weekend until the Expedition ends doing this.

[quaint urchin]

Helpful hint... When you kill the last Sentinel you'll get directions to the nearest Sentinel Pillar. If it is on the same planet the Sentinels will be deactivated. Just go there, hop out of your ship, then reload the restore point to start another fight. If it is on another planet the Sentinels will still be active there so you can just start another fight.

Once at a Sentinel Pillar you can keep making and reloading restore points until you've killed all 4 Walkers.

[cold fossil]

I am so frustrated with trying to get this stupid Apex Predator mission

I'm on the planet that says it has them, but I just can't find the damn things.

[wintry void]

Starter planet in ocean, there are 3 water animals, 1 is Predator

[cold fossil]

I finally got it...

[final wave]

I found the apex predator in a cave system

Is it the planet that was labelled something like "apex predator 12.0 here | mantis lookin"?

[cold fossil]

Yes.

I finally found it.

It's the "Rare" Underground fauna.

[final wave]

W 💪

[snow ruin]

Strictly speaking you can do that with several saves all the time from what I understand. You would just have to "buy" the things that unlock account wide to make good use of it on your main account.

[snow ruin]

The funny thing is that you could get it on the first planet XD

[final wave]

The eardog sigma planet ?

[snow ruin]

Eel in the water

[final wave]

Oops, 10 hours in the event. Too late hoho

[buoyant heart]

slow at doing what? just dont do extra things

[final wave]

me slow

[final wave]

Did u swipe left too far off of your message that u edited it instead? 😆

[buoyant heart]

so for the like kill monstrosities missions, you can just get in the minotaur and cannon at the spot where the aliens pop up out of the ground and it'll just vaporize majority of them coming out.

yeah lol

[final wave]

Slow in general, when I discovered I could use the anomaly to buy more construction parts I was distracted with building since then lolol

[buoyant heart]

you could do all that when you got back to the normal game 🙂

[buoyant heart]

are you brand new? did you start with the expedition?

[final wave]

Yups I just got the game a few days back

[buoyant heart]

ohhhh yeah that explains it, yeah you might not be able to finish in time then =/ i'd offer to help but i closed out mine already

if you focus the mission objectives and try, you will get more stuff out of it, i know it ends up S-classing your multitool among other things

[final wave]

I felt like leaving my mark (base) somewhere on a planet while the expedition is still a thing, game was just too fun 👍

[buoyant heart]

got way more out of the time i spent in the expedition than doing anything else, with the added rewards

[final wave]

I have been wondering this for a while, do the techs' stat boosts stack ?

[buoyant heart]

people will keep those bases, majority of them will remain, and they all then exist in the main universe

im outside the expedition now and when i go to my expedition house i see everyone else's still and you can still build there afterwards

[buoyant heart]

yeah, all of that stacks, you'll know when it won't let you

your not on a timer to build a cool house before its over

[final wave]

I wonder if there is ever a search bar for when you bring up the galaxy map, so u can like, mark your waypoint from there

[final wave]

thanks a lot! U're very helpful

[buoyant heart]

the no man's sky community is very helpful, almost too much some times lol don't let people give you money on the anomoly if you can help it.

and any "dupe" or "make units or nanites fast scheme" is really not worth it if you actually like the game, it'll just end your game early.

theres a cap on units of almost 4.3billion, and that is way easier to obtain than it sounds.

[final wave]

I see. I never focused that much in the game anyways. Always taking it slow and enjoying the game 👍

[buoyant heart]

im sitting on almost 200k nanites than i have no use for, and food worth another 200k nanites sitting in storage

[final wave]

I see that lmao. I became a units millionaire way too quickly

[buoyant heart]

granted a lot of that is due to my growing tons of ingredients and making top tier food for Cronus in the anomoly, and making a bunch of stasis devices and fusion ignitors, but now i can just sling units and nanites around if i want anything like a new ship or whatever lol

to be fair, you can dump a ton of nanites really fast if you find something like a multitool or a ship that is not S-class that you want visually, or the position of the supercharge slots and then making it S-class etc

[buoyant heart]

and you'll have places to put most of your income for about the first 200hours, depending

[oblique lichen]

I've been at around 120m units for about 200 hours. I spend some millions on ships, but I don't feel very rich when I see an A-class hauler of 110m

Got most of the money from smuggling

Already sold 400m worth of illegal stuff

[storm sparrow]

question because I personally can't unsee it -

is the Icon (at least) for Mind blown Gesture a reference to Tim and Eric's Awesome Show Great Job..

Probably not but if you know you know - that part where eric wareheim is like "Bwuaaaaaawwwww" mind blown
It's The T.&.E.A.SG.J universe skit they did if anyone is wondering what I'm seeing

[fickle night]

uhm..... question.....

[round panther]

am intending to finally start the expedition and get some very needed mental rest from life, redhydrate, chill...
... did print out the milestones, to see which things i can do already "on the way"

are they serious? 4 walkers i think this is even needed for a normal-story mission, which i didnt do yet (there is so much to dig my nose into, in this game...)
am ... puh. just.. wish me luck.. ok? T T

[fickle night]

i claimed all of the reward, it automatically end my expedition...

i can put stash, but i can't return to primary save

[meager scroll]

Yup, pressing on the last badge marks the exped as complete automaticslly I think

[fickle night]

noooooooooooooo

[meager scroll]

You will be able to return to primary save only if you click End Expedition

[fickle night]

i still want to copy my other multi tool

i got 2 A rank sentinel gun i want to copyyyyyyyyyyyy

noooooo

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

😭

[round panther]

thats scary 😮

• notes: do not claim the last ~2 rewards. settle your things first. think 10 times about what to keep and sell. then check again o0

[fickle night]

[round panther]

i guess going back to an older save point smth wouldnt do? sry am just noob here

[fickle night]

cant

it got rewriten by my autosave

[round panther]

i d like an expedition that revolves around farming and cooking

[fickle night]

aaaaaaaaaaaa

I SHOULD'VE MANUALLY SAVE

AAAAAAAA

[final wave]

Hi, did something dreadful happen?

[round panther]

to be fair, normally before i even start an expedition, there is probably hours of reading up, analysing what to do first and when etc.
idk why i am like. and then stuff still goes wrong.. 😦

[fickle night]

yes

[round panther]

drak took the last reward and auto ended expedition, now cant copy MT over and other things 😦

[fickle night]

i got 3 MT i want to copy

and, now, if i end the expedition, can't copy (i think idk)

[final wave]

Ohh, what happens when you end your expedition ? I'm pretty close to 100%ing the event and I'm curious !

[fickle night]

well, i want to copy 3 MT, so im not supposed to end the expedition

because to Copy my MT from expe to primary save i need to switch the active MT

[final wave]

I'm sorry what are MTs 😓 I'm newgen

[fickle night]

multitool

[final wave]

Oh so like, transferring multitool techs to your main save?

[fickle night]

does anyone know what will happen if i click the Return to Primary Save manually when the game already automatically ended the expedition?

[fickle night]

not the tech, but the multitool itself

[final wave]

What I fear most is getting my expedition save inaccessible when I complete it, I dunno if it does that for sure until I get there

[round panther]

it depends how you started it? i hope am not spreading misinfo
if started via your main save, the expedition part of that will be kind of lost. stuff will be converted into units/nanite, you keep your bases (but not the inventories of those), but thats it afaik

last time when i did exp via my main, i took extra time to sell all the stuff i didnt needed or didnt want to switch over to my main save. and thinking about which things i want to take with me, back to main save

[ashen shore]

Hey, I think this question's bren asked before but I can't find a definite answer; I finished the expedition on another save, are the items earned there inaccessible through my main save?

[round panther]

i think only the quicksilver things can be obtained on the main save then.

[meager scroll]

If you mean the Liquidator mech blueprints, those are bugged currently

Should be fixed with next patch

[round panther]

reminds me, am so stressed, i wanted to do last expedition 2 times, one new and one from main save.
only did it new and still didnt even check if i can claim something on the main 😦

[meager scroll]

Other items like individual phase rewards, those should be available to redeem

From Quicksilver shop

[ashen shore]

Including the upgrades?

[meager scroll]

Upgrades as in?

[ashen shore]

Uh the ones we get as rewards

Like the minotaur cannon upgrades

[snow ruin]

Clicking the Return to Primary through the Options should not end your expedition. It should allow you to jump back and forth

[fickle night]

yesshh im doing that now :> thankyouu

[snow ruin]

There's some information in #nms-questions message (which is also linked in my pinned information collection message)

[lusty slate]

What happens to the expedition save depends on how you started the expedition.

1. If you started the expedition from an existing save using the terminal on the Anomaly: Expedition ends automatically once all milestones and phases are claimed. You then use the Anomaly terminal to place any items and tech you want to take back and return to your main save from there. Units, nanites, quicksilver and any bases you made will be automatically merged into your main save. Go to the quicksilver vendor at the Anomaly and select the expedition tab to claim the phase rewards for your main. Retrieve the items you sent back from the terminal.

2. If you started a fresh save for the expedition: Expedition ends automatically when all milestones and phases are claimed. The expedition save then auto converts into a normal save file that you can continue playing if you wish. Save will remain until you delete it yourself. Items, units, nanites, bases and quicksilver remain tied to the save and CAN'T be transferred to another one. Phase rewards from the expedition are account wide unlocks though, and can be claimed through the quicksilver vendor on all saves on that console/account.

[main pendant]

is there any eta on update for fixing being unable to claim liquidator parts on main saveafter completing expedition

[faint mesa]

Also, not sure if a bug or not, but when you are playing an expedition from a new save, it will lose its custom name once it gets converted to a normal save.
So instead of "Liquidators" you'll see something like "Load Save".

Minor thing, but it can get confusing if you have other saves with no assigned name... so here's a protip. As soon as that message pops out and your save gets converted, rename it to the expedition name as it was before (or whatever you fancy), save the game, then go back to your business on other saves.

[faint mesa]

No ETA, but it's fixed on experimental, which should be made public sometime in the next week...

[sweet spade]

Is there any way to bring back a companion to my main save? Grew attached to my companion...

[snow ruin]

No, not as far as I'm aware at least. If it's the expedition reward then you can get an egg for that on your main save from the vendor, but otherwise no.

[sweet spade]

😢

[meager scroll]

The same animals should spawn on the same planet in other saves

So just get coords to that planet and visit it on the other save

[full orchid]

When I find a fauna in an expedition that I like to have and get. I make a base on that planet. That way it is easier to get because I can teleport to it. Also something to keep in mind if you don't have that galaxy open.

[primal arch]

If I apply upgrades to a Minotaur on one planet, will those upgrades stay when I go to another planet? I wanna clear up space but there’s not enough fauna on this planet for me to farm for that expedition milestone

Actually idek if fauna counts as hostiles 💀

[sleek siren]

whatever modifications you do to your minotaur in that save always stay around

the inventory it carries as well ofc

[primal arch]

Oh that’s fire. I can finally have inventory space 😭

[full pewter]

They didn't when I tried it

[sage mason]

what’s the best way to kill 32 sentinels?

i keep dying to them 😭

[primal arch]

Damn I guess I gotta hunt some senties

[primal arch]

Don’t kill them at once lol just get to stage 3 or something. Hop in ship, escape to Anomaly, then repeat

[sage mason]

i can’t get to the anomaly yet lol
but i guess a space station could do just fine as well

[primal arch]

Wait wym can you not summon the anomaly?

If you’re gonna do space station, make sure it’s close by to the planet + area you’re hunting senties

Cuz they will chase you lol

[sage mason]

the option isn’t there

i guess i need to progress further in the story to be able to?

first thing i did when i discovered the anomaly was start the expedition

[full pewter]

You get access to the anomaly in the expedition after your first warp

[primal arch]

^ follow this then. Don’t do the sentinel stuff until you get access to it unless you like getting cooked

[sage mason]

turns out i needed to do like 5 more minutes of the story to be able to lol

i can now tho

[lusty slate]

Fleeing into the system space station works just fine.

[sage mason]

it is pretty far tbf

[lusty slate]

If the station is close enough.

[sage mason]

oh also how do i find sentinels?

[lusty slate]

Aggressive Sentinel planets are easiest as they attack on sight. Failing that, a high Sentinel activity planet. Find a Sentinel, pick a fight

[primal arch]

Yeah they kinda just roam around

Speaking of them though, where do I find corrupt ones lol

Will an aggressive sentinel planet have them or do I have to be in a particular system?

[sage mason]

28/32 down

[deep lotus]

guys can someone please help me I need to fong some underwater things and idk what they are can someone show me

please

[atomic estuary]

Alluring specimen?

[deep lotus]

yes that big word

I gotta use those to find underwater monsters

[atomic estuary]

Go underwater and look around with your visor, alluring specimen will be marked with a red icon

It will have glowing appendages, you need to interact with them and kill the thing that will spawn and chase you

[deep lotus]

is it only specific planets

[atomic estuary]

Any planet with water will do, if you dont see it immediately just swim further

[deep lotus]

but iv been swimming for an hour:(.

[sage mason]

32 down! done with phase 2 finally

[deep lotus]

I'm on my last two for it all

[atomic estuary]

Maybe try swimming deeper or further from the dry land

[deep lotus]

ok
😦

[sage mason]

made it to rendezvous 3

[primal arch]

Alright aggressive ones do NOT have corrupted ones even if you pick gravitino balls. Seems like I gotta find a dissonant system somehow

[deep lotus]

I'm on my last one rn

[sage mason]

damn

[deep lotus]

ik I been fringin lol all I gotta do is kill one walker and I'm done

so ab 4 min

[sage mason]

wait how do i get a minotaur i got a bunch of stuff for it just now

[deep lotus]

anomaly

[indigo falcon]

yes you do. there is a dissonant world in the 4th drop zone system

[indigo falcon]

the starter planet's oceans have alluring specimens, just make sure you're near ocean and not a lake when you land, if you don't see any markers, move 200 u and scan again, they'll turn up

[deep lotus]

I tried all that so I relogged and they appeared idk but I finished it already thanks thiugh

[indigo falcon]

ok, glad you got it done

[primal arch]

Ahh gotcha I gotta find that one again then lmao

Are Minotaur bays portable?

[sage mason]

gn y’all

[visual acorn]

Can someone save me please the game just glitches my ship and killed me and I lost my repair kits in stranded on one of the planets in the first system can someone please bring me a repair kit so I can keep playing and not be screwed I can give it back ones I get my grave

[unreal gale]

Any help on how to do the "hit 4 with a grenade" thing? I even fired at fauna and didnt got it

[final wave]

Kinda ? U get refunded entirely of what u made the bay with by deleting it with X, can't hold middle click on the bay unlike the p. refiner and etc

[final wave]

I went to a random settlement and camped at its heart, which was where the bio horrors spawned, then I spammed left click until game rewarded me 👍

[unreal gale]

Ty

[primal arch]

Are you still stuck? I can drop by once I figure out how

[visual acorn]

Yes, if we add each other you can join on me and it will bring you to me.

[primal arch]

Okay imma DM you

[visual acorn]

Perfect ty

[topaz chasm]

Hey is anyone interested in playing the expedition with me? I'm kinda stuck and need help tbh . I have alot of resources but I didn't bring the right stuff with me

I'm a really good builder and focus on detail , I'd anyone wants to build some bases together lmk

[visual acorn]

@primal arch you are an absolute lifesaver thank you so much I really thought my expedition was over!

[primal arch]

Glad I could help!!

[wintry void]

I dont have a current expedition save, but I've completed 4 times, what do you need help with?

[dawn tartan]

is ther a way to play previous expedition? I just bought the game and finished the 14th

[wintry void]

Not really, i think there is an offline mod way, but Hello Games usually do a re run of that years expeditions at the end of the year.

[dawn tartan]

thanks

[sweet spade]

We're the minotaur upgrades not expeditionary rewards that you could get w quicksilver? Did I have to transfer those tech back via anomaly!?

Nevermind i see it as already owned. Thought I had to claim them

Phew

[regal kernel]

Eardog sigma

The perfect name

[topaz chasm]

I just need someone to jump in on my session with resources

Anyone wanna help me out later today with this?

[topaz chasm]

My DMS are open if anyone wants to trade friend codes?

I'm on Xbox btw

[serene flax]

Can anyone help me? I will only have a few hours today to somehow complete almost the entire expedition (done two pages so far and a few odd ones)

Could anyone give me some tips as to how to speed up/ not have to stop

[wintry void]

get uranium and pyerite to fuel engines, maybe get a sentinel ship for the better base warp range and easy fueling.

why are you having to stop?

[serene flax]

mostly due to warping

its either my impatience to get things done or lack of avalable materials that causes me to move on when i have only created 2-3 warp cells

i belive im about 3 systems off from the 3rd checkpoint

[wintry void]

Buy some s class warp upgrades from a station vendor will help with that, or/and getting a sentinel ship, as they come with 600 lightyear base jump distance

[serene flax]

Ok will do!

Thank you so much

[turbid folio]

if you are able to get the Golden Vector ship from a previous expedition, that can help too

[serene flax]

Unfortunately I can’t but good idea

It pains me that even tho I got the game on launch I didn’t do the first few expeditions

[turbid folio]

awe, ya i missed out on a few too i wish i didnt

i think i got the golden vector on a rerun?

[wraith junco]

There is a task tied do dissonance system so why not grab a sentinel ship along the way

[turbid folio]

^

i think sentinel ships are my fav lol

[indigo falcon]

you'll have a ton of ship slots from the start, no repairs, and great hyperdrive distance with no upgrades at all, for a sentinel ship, highly recommended

[serene flax]

i even missed that one somehow... i gave in and decided to trade for one however on the fact that i still distinctly remember flying the original alpha vector

[fierce dust]

Where should I be going for the purple mist mission, I've been to over a dozen disselent galaxies and no luck finding the corrupted sentinels

[lusty slate]

Yup, Cartographers remix last year offered the GV. That's how I got mine.

[thick umbra]

One of the dropzone systems has a dissonant planet

[lusty slate]

You're looking for a system that says "dissonant" on the galaxy map.

[fierce dust]

Finally found some I appreciate it you guys

[snow ruin]

Galaxies? Everything is fine in Euclid where the expedition is. No need to go to other galaxies

[vital aspen]

Any fixes for the liquidators minotaur parts pushed yet?

[tired condor]

How do I harvest 900 units in one pull?

[wraith junco]

Just mine Rocks, trees just dont stop or overheat the mt

[boreal violet]

Nice to know fix is on the way

[autumn thorn]

Hello! got a question... I just started playing after YEARS and just finished the expedition. The problem is... When i got the rewards from the anomaly I hatched the apalling egg and noticed i had no more space for a new pet sooo i right clicked and then my egg was gone x) is there a way to get it back or another way to find one?

[exotic fiber]

I was told there's a Nexus mission that has me go to abandoned buildings, and I can use it to shortcut the search for such buildings in order to finish the Provocateur milestone. Is THIS that mission??

[sage mason]

so when i duplicate my multitool on my main save, does it have all of the upgrades and mods that it does on the expedition save?

[tired condor]

Does it take a while to find the aggressive predator? Is there a good spot for it?

[exotic fiber]

whelp, looks like the mission was grabbed by other players while I was waiting for an answer here.

[scarlet slate]

Expedition done in 3h22 mins !

[exotic fiber]

@meager scroll Do you know what the Nexus mission you were referring to is called, or can you describe it, so that if I see it available at the nexus I can recognize it & grab it?

[autumn thorn]

yep

[sage mason]

thanks!

i currently have the default ship and multi tool on my main save 😭

literally just got to the nexus in the story

[meager scroll]

Yes it's this one

Don't ask for names, there is like 5 different names for each Nexus mission type

What you need is objective about killing monstrosities

[exotic fiber]

ok ty

[exotic fiber]

does "exterminate vile broods" count as one?

[meager scroll]

No

[snow ruin]

😉

[exotic fiber]

oh glad i asked, as i was about to start such a mission

[sage mason]

this is insane lol i have 19 exosuit inventory slots right now

[sage mason]

about halfway through phase 3

[autumn thorn]

Me too haha I just started playing last weekend

And went direct to the expedition after discovering it at the anomaly

[sage mason]

same lol

at this point in the story the stuff you get is so good

[sage mason]

dropzone 4 time lfg

[autumn thorn]

Yep, sadly I didn't save the goodies from my exosuit but I have 200kk now to invest on new stuff haha

[sage mason]

only 200k from the whole thing?

i just got to the 4th drop zone and i have 10 million

[autumn thorn]

200kk

200.000.000 X)

[sage mason]

OH

GODDAMN

[latent summit]

how do I transfer the minotaur parts to my main save?

[autumn thorn]

Move them into your inventory

[latent summit]

ok then what

[autumn thorn]

When you are done with the expedition you go to the Terminal and place them in the Technology part

You can only take 8 technologies

[latent summit]

i have to claim the final phase reward and then go to the terminal?

[autumn thorn]

Yep

[latent summit]

ah, ok

[autumn thorn]

The rest will be sold automatically

[latent summit]

thx a ton

[near gust]

looking for a creature with a 12.0 or higher viciousness estimate, anyone able to help in finding one?

[wraith junco]

[autumn thorn]

[autumn thorn]

Mmh If I am not wrong, there was a planet at the rendezvous 3 (?)

The planet had a name saying it was there

[trail creek]

Is that the Mantis? Its really hard to find

[autumn thorn]

It was not a mantis lol...

It was a crab

[latent summit]

1st planet, eel in the ocean

[autumn thorn]

I needed 5h till I tried my luck throwing food in a cave

[autumn thorn]

It didn't count to me... The eel was 11~

[latent summit]

oh

odd

[autumn thorn]

But yeah, at the mantis planet, if you go to a underground cave and keep throwing food you will get it

[near gust]

Cheers ill give that a whirl

[autumn thorn]

Good luck 🤞🏼

[sage mason]

what’s the best way to get fire in the hole?

[sage mason]

nvm, you basically just shoot a grenade right after shooting an egg while a ton spawn at once

got it!

now i only have 32 corrupt sentinels and 3 underwater monstrosities

[ashen shore]

Hey guys has the mech parts not being transferred if you close the expedition while installing them on the expedition mech been fixed?

Pretty sad that I cant use the parts after grinding

[little knoll]

oh is that why the new parts dont show up in the mech build menu?

[ashen shore]

I’m assuming 😦

[little knoll]

damn, im seeing the same then

[ashen shore]

Making me so very sad

Been saving up my flamethrower mods

[sage mason]

19/32 corrupt sentinels down

god i hate extreme storms 😭

27 down

did it!

now time for water bosses

[clear moat]

Is there a way to get expedition minotaur tech to main save? I made a mistake to join from a new save, so I did not get to transfer items

[meager scroll]

You redeem the blueprints from QS vendor, the option to buy QS items

If it's bugged, it will show you that you need to pay QS

If it's working correctly, these should just say Available

[sage mason]

alr i can’t find a single alluring specimen even though i’m in a water planet

is there something else i need to do?

[meager scroll]

Nope, just matter of luck

[sage mason]

hmm

interesting

[sharp basin]

search for underwater buildings. there is almost always 2 alluring specimens adjacent to the structure

[meager scroll]

Nope

Abyssal Horrors are another thing entirely

[sharp basin]

thought they are the same thing

[ashen shore]

Mine say already owned but they arent available in build options and I had installed the parts during the expedition and ended

[sharp basin]

yeah.. i stand corrected.. horrors and alluring specimens are very different. Guess its been too long for me as i dont hunt for those much any more

[sage mason]

stage 4 complete

[sage mason]

everything except 4 sentinel walkers is done now

[rough mortar]

!tier

[unkempt kraken]

@rough mortar Please use this command in #bot-spam.

[rough mortar]

Damn so I’m guessing for people that start the expedition now they won’t be able to get the Minotaur stuff for free

[vague zephyr]

Anyone got a decent guide / tips and tricks on what to bring on an expedition;
and the best ways to prepare for it? Items to bring, or ways I can bring a ship/multi-tool, and the best kind of multi-tool to bring? Etc.

[snow ruin]

Of course they do. They just have to do their personal minimum contribution for each milestone.

[snow ruin]

Not really much you need. Personal refiner mk2 is nice, and something to refine to nanites to be able to copy your ship early. But you don't really need anything

The MT you start the expedition with is good. And quickly gets better through the expedition rewards

[snow ruin]

#nms-questions message which is also linked in the pins is a great resource to get some info from

[sage mason]

goddamn i gotta live till wanted 5?

ouch

[snow ruin]

There are apparently some places that have a Walker (longlegs) just walking around you can take out without going to wanted 5.
I found it easier to just get to wanted 5, though. Didn't seem hard with the MT and the upgrades for the shotgun weapon on it for me. Of course this can vary person to person

[undone ridge]

Does anyone know how to get access to the space anomaly

[meager scroll]

Gotta warp at least once

[ornate wing]

Sentinel nodes has a chance of spawning. Idle walker near it.

[sage mason]

i’ve killed one but other than that ive just been dying over and over in stage 3 or 4 😭

[snow ruin]

There are some bases that make it easier to survive as you have some cover, for example. You can even build it yourself if you want to.

[blissful onyx]

digging a simple hole in the ground worked pretty well for me to avoid regular shots

u can peek and shoot

[primal arch]

How does one go about getting an advanced mining laser during the expedition?

[gaunt fern]

Is therre a derlic freighter nearby at the start of the expedition? I keep getting a popup for it

[primal arch]

Yeah probably. The second system had one for me. Just look around in space and it’ll show it - otherwise just skip it

[atomic cave]

This was an easy expedition. Was it to showcase people's shipt and tool? Too easy.

[autumn thorn]

I had fun (this one was also m first time playing expeditions)

but I am under the impression that the monsters were easier to kill x)

[gaunt fern]

I can't claim found signal distress ships in the expidetion I assume?

[autumn thorn]

you can

[gaunt fern]

I found one after following a signal and holding down E fills the bar to open the ship but then it wont do anything

[autumn thorn]

I believe I purchased on

[gaunt fern]

lte me reload

that worked

[sage mason]

as someone who started it after literally just getting to the nexus it’s not easy for me lol 😭

though the combat wasn’t that hard other than sentinels

[little knoll]

how do you install them on the minotaur?

[primal arch]

Gotta have that Minotaur active and then just install as per usual

Just found a sentinel ship… looks like it’s gonna have to stay here until post expedition 😦

[sage mason]

i can return to finish my expedition soon!

[balmy aspen]

Drop a base + portal near it (ideally at the harmony camp so you can farm the ships, they salvage for at least 20m each at C class), and you can come back to it on your normal save when you complete the expedition

[primal arch]

Wait wym harmony camp?

[balmy aspen]

#bot-spam message

Basically a camp you can find on dissonant planets that will constantly give you coords for crashed sentinel interceptors that you can revive and claim indefinitely. When you find all the available ones, you just leave and return to the system, and do it all over again. A restore point might also work?

Note that each planet only gives one type of sentinel ship, of different classes based on the economy of the system, like regular ships

[primal arch]

Bet yeah I went through and found one. Gonna leave it for post-expedition to do all the glyphs and stuff

Actual nvm I just did the glyphs LMFAO but I’ll do the rest later. Good looks though 🫡

I think this system sucks but I know in my main save I’m def not near a dissonant system so this will be cool for now

[inland kernel]

Guys. 1 quick question. I'm new to the game ( 1 week old / on quest The purge 1/16). Should I try " expedition " for purpose of not missing on the rewards? Or its too early for me. Thank you.

[balmy aspen]

You've still got time to do the expedition, and it does give you some pretty good gear that you can transfer with nanites (plus the unlockables), so I'd say yes. There are Youtube guides you can watch that takes you step by step to do the expedition in the fastest way

Expedition ends on 2 September, so you have 14 days to get it done, which is plenty of time.

Apparently some people have done it in three hours, but I think a newbie would take 1 to 2 weeks, depending on how often you play

[inland kernel]

Thanks. I'll do that. I'll try it out.

[snow ruin]

Get it from the Anomaly?

[snow ruin]

It's not really too early. It's an interestingly different way to play the game, and you can always find out that you didn't enjoy the expedition play and stop doing the expedition. But at the same time the rewards now are mostly some cosmetics (bug visuals), so if you don't particularily want those you shouldn't need to do the expedition either.

[jovial moon]

I cant get the minotaur parts from the expedition

[karmic valve]

known bug

[granite ridge]

the just announced patch fixes that

"Fixed an issue that could prevent installation of the Liquidator Minotaur limbs after completing the Liquidators expedition on an existing save." #nms-announcements message

[jovial moon]

nice

[autumn thorn]

I came back after years and the expedition helped me get to the game, I did a lot of new stuff like finding ruins, derelict ships and fighting bosses I would never had the courage to fight before (like the drones)

Now I am less scared when encountering aggressive specimens X)

And you get a lot of money back

Plus the multigun and ship 💖

[inland kernel]

I've started it. And phase 1 completed during an hour. Having a blast. Thanks to everyone for encouraging me to try it.

[urban perch]

Does the mech flamethrower arm transfer to your regular save or is it only in the expedition?

[sage mason]

i did the expedition as early as i could and got 20 million units, 25 thousand nanites, and a ton of s tier upgrades

absolutely do it

oh and a new ship and an s tier multitool

[boreal violet]

Tnx
18.61gb on my series x....

[pale swift]

oh lawd

[true bronze]

Am I crazy or is the Phase 5 mission to collect walker brains significantly harder than literally any other mission or set of missions in any of the phases up to that point?

like...it feels like it could be an entire phase on its own

its the only one I have left to finish so I'll get there but boy howdy is it a pain in the ass

[indigo falcon]

it's not too bad, depends on how you go about it. it's more time-consuming than anything else, I'd say.

[dusty pecan]

you get 2 walker brains per sentinel walker

[indigo falcon]

as the last thing to do, by now your multitool is at S class, presumably you have all the weapons and upgrades in there you could want, yo've probably spent some nanites on shields for the suit, etc.

4 walkers is the thing, not collecting the brains

[dusty pecan]

should have minotaur with AI and Cannon by phase 5 too. It slaps sensitinels quite hard even on AI control

[indigo falcon]

I didn't want to deal with the tedium of 4 waves so I got secure site maps from a cartographer, landed on an aggro sentinel planet, spammed maps until I got an ops center one, and set up a base there (a walker guards ops centers on aggro sentinel worlds). then I did 'whck walker, teleport out of system, teleport back, repeat' until done

can't really be faster than that, unless you can speed through the 5 waves pretty fast, in which case do that

on an aggro sentinel world if you prefer the 5 waves route, pick up a grav ball to start at wave 3 I think it is, ge tit done faster

[true bronze]

That is a great way to do it, thank you for that

[true bronze]

I hadn't tried it with AI control like that, I will give it a shot

[main pendant]

I dont see them..

OH
they're in the main thing

I see

[idle cliff]

Liquidators was super fun, first expedition I finished, I wimped out on the first couple expeditions cuz I looked too far ahead I'm glad I didn't quit this time lol

Oh woah I have a name

[sage mason]

you did not just make me ||lose the game ||😭

[idle cliff]

Lol

Yep

[sage mason]

also nice polyphia pfp

[idle cliff]

I've had it all summer and you're the second person who knew lol

But yeah makes for a good pfp

[idle cliff]

Also I never knew expeditions gave you money, imma go buy an s class freighter now

[main pendant]

thatsf unny
you can have both liquidators and sentinel, and liquidators overrides it

[sage mason]

good luck finding it

[idle cliff]

Imma just warp a bunch while doing other things that'll probably work

Def not the best way but good enough

[indigo falcon]

yes and you get the little boost from the adjacency bonus too

[main pendant]

oh wait wth
lmao

does this... even do anything?

(the boost)

[exotic timber]

Ultra smart AI /joke

[meager scroll]

No it will not do anything

[main pendant]

real

[meager scroll]

The adjacency border shows up because both of these modules share the same stat

[main pendant]

didnt think so

[meager scroll]

However, it's not a numerical stat like damage or jetpack size or resistance

It's just a toggle that enables the autopilot functionality

[main pendant]

thats what I thought yea

[meager scroll]

Imagine having a light switch, pressing it +5% harder does not make the lights go brighter

[main pendant]

I meaaan... if you have one of those dial ones it does

er

adjustable

[meager scroll]

However it looks like having both types of arms might boost some of their stats

But since the Liquidator parts seem to have a higher priority then Hardframe parts, those should be the only ones available to the player

[main pendant]

I wish there was a cosmetic toggle, but since I like liquidator better anyway I'm ok with this

[little knoll]

how did you get the liquidators parts out of expedition? they're unavailable to me

[main pendant]

check the main quicksilver tab

not the expedition one

[fickle night]

Where to get the sentinel mino tech?

[main pendant]

uh

laylaps questline stuff

[meager scroll]

Mission called Trace of Metal, starts after getting a settlement or warping enough times (Switch only)

[zinc gate]

It was a cool expedition and the first one I finished.

The bug armour looks interesting

[barren kindle]

I liked the expedition, it was fairly easy to complete without a bunch of bloated nonsense missions. Like discovering robotic species 😂

[sage mason]

ngl fighting all the sentinels was actually fun

at the end

YES IM LEVEL 5

afbabqdh

[zinc gate]

I'm pretty sure they added more insect like helmets, but they aren't obtainable yet.

[sage mason]

wait nvm 😭

[meager scroll]

There are 4 insect heads available in general gameplay

You just need to defeat brood mothers and hope for the head to drop

[low ember]

Yep you can get all the heads right now

[ashen shore]

Got my ship and multi tool
We are so back

[worn finch]

Planning ahead to the end of the expedition... should I install the Liquidator parts into the Minotaur now, and then package them later to transfer back to my main save when the expedition finishes? I presume those blueprints aren't available in the main save unless I do this.

[elder yarrow]

they fixed that bug

[worn finch]

Ah, so phase rewards are there at the end

[elder yarrow]

yeah, verifying that for Win10 Store/Xbox client

saw the update earlier today

[lusty slate]

Unless you're on Switch, we're still waiting on that.

[worn finch]

Steam. Updated earlier.

so should be good

[elder yarrow]

maybe you should... Switch... to a different platform 😛

and on a related note, I would really ❤️ crossave

[lusty slate]

Maybe you should mind your own platform business. 😛

[elder yarrow]

hey, i'd love to be able to just use the Steam client instead of the Win10 store client... but I can't leave my stuff behind XD

[lusty slate]

Yeah, this my problem with switching to another console. I want to keep my expedition stuff, I have everything since Exiobiology.

[elder yarrow]

can confirm liquidator fix, i'm finally able to get all the pieces for it

[worn finch]

Ty. How many are there in total?

[lusty slate]

Liquidator parts?

[worn finch]

y

[elder yarrow]

4

[worn finch]

Marvellous...

ty

[elder yarrow]

and they're just standard quicksilver parts, doing the expedition (especially the community stuff) is all you need to do to get them for free

[inland kernel]

Is there a way to get significantly more credits in expedition?

[elder yarrow]

yes, import a stack of stasis devices 😛

[balmy void]

I see there's a YUGE update. Did they fix the bug that locked us out of our mech parts?

WOOHOO!

[wraith junco]

But no fix for vanishing vonders records (ps4)

[grand lodge]

I'm honestly not even sure I want to finish the expy. All I really wanted was the minotaur arms with the flamethrower and I got that.

[royal tundra]

Bug armor

[ashen shore]

When you finish the expedition, do you put all of your items that you took with you at the start back? Or does it not matter?

[remote thunder]

if you didn't use them in expedition, want to bring them back again, sure; stored tech you may have brought, can be stored again and put into the stash to bring back to primary

[ashen shore]

So if I brought stuff from my primary to expedition, I have to put them back

[remote thunder]

yeah; let's say you brought 1k O2 with you into expedition, only spent like 300 and didn't pick up any either; you can definitely bring those 700 O2 left back with you

[ashen shore]

Okie

Ty :D

I just finished

[remote thunder]

congrats! 🙂

[ashen shore]

I freaking loved it
I loved the combat

Alrighty I got 18M units, 17K nanites and 500 quicksilver

[remote thunder]

not bad at all

[shadow basalt]

i loved that expedition

i was doing my part

i did my part

We need more updates about Liquidators and insect types to blow the heck up

[cobalt gyro]

Im confused is there an expedition or not? I go to the Expedition terminal and it says no expedition and I see this chat is still up

[knotty tangle]

Just beat the Expedition.

[cobalt gyro]

I didn't. I can't even log into the expedition to do it.

[knotty tangle]

Can't make a fresh character?

[cobalt gyro]

I don't want to. I already have a lot of saves.

[elder yarrow]

exit client, forcibly check for an update, and try again. if you still don't see the expedition, see if you can create it on a standalone save

[lime plume]

Is the liquidator body just an alternate Ai pilot?

[sick jay]

yea

low key the flamethrower sucks

[elder yarrow]

I don't know if there's a difference between the LIquidator and Hardframe torsos other than the cosmetics

[elder yarrow]

is that with it fully modded?

[sick jay]

full S class unpgrades

i didnt spend time finding good X ones

[elder yarrow]

does X class even exist for the exocrafts?

[sick jay]

idk

[lime plume]

Makes sense.

[sick jay]

i dont like minotaur because my multitool literally has 500x the dps

my multitool kills a minotaur sentinel in 3 shots even if its being healed but the minotaur cannon and the flamethrower both take like a year to do anything

[elder yarrow]

they're not THAT bad... then again, I dislike using stupidly OP MTs cause it takes the fun out of it for me

but if you do fight the sentinels with the minotaur you HAVE to take out the healing sentinels otherwise it becomes an excercise in futility

[sick jay]

yea

when im using my multitool i shoot the sentinel getting healed and it instant dies along with the healer and like anything thats within a few feet away

but on minotaur you have to kill everything invividually

[grand lodge]

Don't like bug aesthetic.

I love the minotaur because I like having an AI mech buddy following me around. I have the atlantid/robot body and a robot deer pet so I love the vibes being a traveling space robot riding my robot deer trailed by my big robot friend.

[sick jay]

the bug armor is hideous

it is probably the single most disappointing final rewards of an expidition ever

they could have at least had some sort of ship that is vangard themed or living with a weird vile brood twist

[opal glade]

there are also the liquidator minotaur mods

which are not bad

and some people like bug themed stuff..... not me though

[grand lodge]

Yeah that's what I cared about, and I got them and bounced

You don't need to finish to get the cool minotaur stuff

[opal glade]

you do get a free s-class MT

but if you're already up to your eyes in S-class MTs that might matter a lot less

[balmy aspen]

If you are just starting the game, like me, an S-class MT is a huge deal. Also learning how to do things, fighting sentinels, etc, was fun.

The bug armour cosmetics are pretty gimmicky, and the Minotaur parts are cool looking, but, I think you really do the expedition for the fun/challenge of it

[ashen shore]

What does mt stand for

Oh multi tool

[lethal mirage]

What exactly is meant by end of the year for expedition reruns

Is it up until new years or does it start new years

[indigo falcon]

typically in late november? or december sometime, hello games does a rerun of the expeditions from earlier in the year, shortening them up to take about two weeks each, and doing them in order, one after the other. there will be an announcement on their web site and of course in here too, when that happens. also, the milestones are often tweaked so the expedition can be completed in the shorter timeframe, but rewards are untouched.

[low ember]

final tally

didnt spend a ton of time in the expo, but nice nanite payout

[mint pivot]

How long does a normal player take to finish expeditions

[low ember]

Hmmm, maybe 10-15 hrs?

[mint pivot]

Lol I finished it in 3 days because i was also play mw3

[coral steppe]

is the expedition worth doing if I would only do it for good rewards?

[low jackal]

define "good rewards"

[granite ridge]

Aside from cosmetics/Minotaur appearance there's the Flamethrower and s class sentry multitool as a few of the rewards with actual use

[ashen shore]

Sentry multi tool?

[muted granite]

Expedition done. At last.

[trim cedar]

I'm just preparing stuff for my first ever expedition

on that topic, should I prepare freighter upgrade materials for expedition 🤔

[slender wraith]

Hi. Now that I've finished the expedition, what can I take back to my main save and how? I've read somewhere that I have limitation for upgrade slots/modules and I can take back with me 1 starship and 1 multi-tool too?

[elder yarrow]

there's a terminal with stuff you can send back. i'm not sure if there's any recommendations on leaving tech vs stripping everything, but it will let you copy back (for nanites) whatever your active ship and MT is when you do the export from the expedtion

[slender wraith]

Then you don't know if my mt and starship will copy the upgrade modules too with the export, right? But I guess the unlocked slots will stay.

[elder yarrow]

it will copy over whatever tech, slots, and class of the starship and MT into the main save

however, to get a copy of the ship, you've got to hork up nanites in the anamoly to do the copy

it will not, however, copy over any custom name on either nor the inventory of the starship

[slender wraith]

That's not a problem for me, then I can upgrade my mt and put my upgrade modules into it before leave.
And can I take back normal inventory items too? For example ship parts?

[elder yarrow]

yeah, provided you don't already have the ship or MT in the main save

you'll see an interface like this in the anamoly:

[slender wraith]

What would happen if I copy my favourite starship to an expedition, upgrade it and want to take it back?

[elder yarrow]

it won't let you take it back until you've destroyed the original one in the main save

[slender wraith]

That means I need to empty it before the expedition start I guess?

[elder yarrow]

or just send back a different ship with key tech... you don't HAVE to use the inventory upgrades

[slender wraith]

Thanks for the help. 🙂

[elder yarrow]

uw, i've used it to duplicate painful to acquire tech many a time 🙂

[teal jolt]

Hello, i think i have made a mistake, new player. I have finished the expedition on a new save and finished the expedition. I have probably missed the dialogue where you can copy something to your main save and now its a normal save. Can i somehow still copy the technologies, or the multitool? Do i have to re-do the expedition? Or to be able to copy technologies, or MT i have to start the expedition from the main save on anomaly? Sorry if this is explained somewhere, i have tried googling it but without success.

[atomic estuary]

You can copy multitool and ships if you started from another save

If you started a new save in the expedition mode then that save turns into a normal mode save after you compete the expedition and there is no way to transfer stuff between saves

[teal jolt]

Thank you, that is unfortunate 😦

Ok

[full pewter]

I copied my main ship and multitool into the expedition and copied them back to my main save after. It let me duplicate a bunch of modules.

[wanton frigate]

Maybe their ship roster was full?

[indigo falcon]

note too that there are video guides on the internet for people who want to get through the expedition relatively quickly, you could follow one of those to cut down on the time.

[wide osprey]

I was told #nms-expedition message

[halcyon hawk]

I don't think I understand if I start the shipment from my save/main slot what happens??

(congrats for promotion)

[atomic estuary]

Start using The expedition terminus

• after it's over you go back to the normal save

• you can bring back some items, but not all of them. All Nanites, Units and Quicksilver goes to the normal save.

• you can copy your multitool and Starship to the expedition from the normal save and the other way around

[atomic estuary]

Start from expedition terminus == Start using main save

[atomic estuary]

Thank you 🎉

[halcyon hawk]

in practice the expedition is like a restart but with the possibility of copying the ship and the multi-tool which also changes the difficulty and makes it normal for all players then at the end everything returns to normal

[atomic estuary]

Yes, when you start expedition from a normal save you start expedition with nothing

After you get to the space anomaly you can pick up some of your things

Which makes expedition a lot easier for people who use that

But all expeditions can be easily completed even if you start a new save or bring nothing with you

[granite ridge]

(Also, it's possible to use the nexus terminal to return back items to primary (right before finishing the exp) several times)

[halcyon hawk]

what if the mode was not normal??

[granite ridge]

Exp mode is fixed, independent of primary

[atomic estuary]

Expedition mode has its own difficulty

You can start using any game mode save, even permanent Death mode

[halcyon hawk]

all easy is possible ??

[atomic estuary]

Yes, but as I said, when you go into the expedition it will have expedition difficulty settings

[slender wraith]

Ok, now I packed everything to wrap up the expedition:
Every item what I want to take back is in my inventory and some are on the ship.
Still have upgrades in my exosuit what I want to take back.
Chose the multi-tool what I want to take back to my main save.
Questions are: Can I put items into the expedition box multiple times before ending the expeditions?
Can I put items from my ship's inventory and from my exosuit directly to the box to take them back with me?
Can I take back the main multi-tool what I bought on the expedition? (not the one what was added at the start, normal multi-tool from a weapon case)

[granite ridge]

you can send back items multiple times, yes

and you can copy the currently active MT from the exp character several

[slender wraith]

What I ment: I open the expedition box, put some item there, close it to get the other things from my ship, open the box again.

[slender wraith]

No need to add it on the terminal separatedly, right?

[granite ridge]

switching between primary and exp each time the box is full, yes

fill box, log to primary, empty box, log to exp and another round

[slender wraith]

Is there any restriction for the mt?

Any max number for modules, upgrades, slots to take, etc?

[granite ridge]

only your primary save's nanites

[slender wraith]

And does my credit/nanites get added to my main save too?

[granite ridge]

yep, once you finally end the expedition you get a summary

(including quicksilver)

[slender wraith]

Is there anything from previous expedition what I can buy with quicksilver and worth to buy it, or it's completely separated from expeditions?

[meager scroll]

It's separated

[cold fossil]

Which of the Rendezvous systems has a Water planet?

I'm trying to do the 3 water creature kill mission.

[granite ridge]

#nms-expedition message would be an option (starting system and planet)

[frail cloud]

RidlIII (rendez-vous 2)

[cold fossil]

I found one, and I'm now up to the Dissonant system requirement for the purple sentinels. Which I think I remember where to go.

How tf can you have a Dissonant system, but no Dissonant planet???

[granite ridge]

might be hidden behin another planet close to you. did you check discoveries?

[cold fossil]

I did a pulse from my Freighter...

[worn finch]

I'm not going to have the time to finish the last milestone (only at 1 / 4 walkers and too much repairing to do). I have xferred my S-class MT already and I'm accumulating the nanites to maybe do my ship if I need to. Might be only a minor difference I can do without.
Is it possible to xfer items (packaged tech etc) and finish the exp early, or do I have to wait until the 2nd?

Use your 3x cannon upgraded mino, focus on the doggies, shoot the large walker's leg plates, which will cause him to be too busy with hitself

[old ridge]

Hey guys, i'm pretty new to the expedition stuff, any tips on how to find aggressive animals, abyssal creatures and also how to get 900 ressources at once ?

[loud surge]

Abyssal Creatures spawn randomly at all times

Aggressive Sentinels spawn on planets with that "modifer"

Get your Minotaur and hold your mining laser until the objective is done

[old ridge]

that is very helpful thank you so much 😄

[loud surge]

Np

[worn finch]

Thanks for the advice, but it doesn't answer my question which is about expedition mechanics, not walkers. You seem to correlate my lack of time with a lack of ability.

[meager scroll]

Dont need minotaur to get the mining milestone

Full charge on mining beam, find a dissonant planet with lots of small plants, rocks and crystals

Mine them all by pulsing the mining beam on and off

[worn finch]

Aggressive animals (not Sentinels)... there's a few player bases that appear on planets with them, named to match! Some earlier references in this channel IIRC.

[meager scroll]

Also

[worn finch]

Mining laser mods help to prolong the time, also you can burst fire without letting it cool down completely. Underground resources help also as they are more densely situated.

[remote thunder]

when you claim and complete at least all non-optional milestones and phase and final rewards, the option to finish early should become available in the expedition terminus

@worn finch iow - you're going to need that 4 walker milestone completion for early conversion/finish, otherwise you're just going to wait for expedition 14 to naturally end and let you finish

[worn finch]

Yep, came to the same conclusion thx. There's no early finish with outstanding non-optional milestones. Well, we'll see what I can do.

[old ridge]

I found 16/17 creatures and of course the one I don't find is the one with 12 aggressivity

[remote thunder]

if you're feeling stuck, and haven't yet tried, perhaps take a look at the pinned posts here? there's quite a few with suitable locations for that milestone. for example, starter planet has an underwater animal (eel) that completed the milestone for me.

[primal glacier]

Anyone know the best way to find dissonant planets? I only need to kill the sentinels but can’t find one

[granite ridge]

one of the dropzone systems has dissonance detected and one of the planets in there will show you it is when scanned from space

[remote thunder]

how to find a dissonant system and a dissonant planet: has an image to backup what stefanda said above: <#bot-spam message>

[primal glacier]

Ahh okay thanks 🙏🏻

[sage mason]

there’s one in the 4th rendezvous system i’m pretty sure

[summer kraken]

All platforms?

Bullshit.

[silent knot]

all platforms that allow for multiplayer

as it says

[gaunt fern]

Took me awhile even after I realized it was underground

[sour pier]

Bruh where is this mantis

Is it underground?

Could I. Find it by just digging tunnels lol or should I search for naturally generated holes

[atomic estuary]

@summer kraken
Please stay on topic and don't send offtopic GIFs here

[gaunt fern]

I think it would only appear in natural caverns

[sour pier]

Would yall recommend saving the upgrades you get in expeditions?

[indigo falcon]

"it depends" (sorry for that). is this from a new save or did you start the expedition from an existing save? do you plan to stay in the expedition for while? if so, you can really rack up the nanites, and so selling off upgrades isn't so necessary. if you started from an existing save with most upgrades already available, and you only want a couple weapons on the multitool, selling the others is ok (but keep plasma launcher, you need it to do a milestone).

[sour pier]

Okay yeah I started a new save about 2 weeks ago it’s my first time playing. I figured I could keep some the inventory upgrade modules and maybe some weapon upgrades for my other save after I’m done with the expedition

[indigo falcon]

ok uh wait, so the expedition save is a new save? because you're going to end up with an S class sentinel multitool chock full of good weapons and upgrades

what does your other save have on it?

[sour pier]

I finished one of the main story quests on the same save and went to the expedition counter in the space anamoly because people said it would be fun.

The multi tool I have in the expedition is better than the one I have in the main world

[indigo falcon]

ok well if you started from the anomaly terminal, then you can at the end have the option to copy the multitool plus all its upgrades back to the main save for like 3k nanites or something

and if you get a good ship and add upgrades in that (like, say, a sentinel ship with some nice things), as you are playing, you can copy that too, I think it's 2.8k nanites for an S class ship. the cargo won't copy over but again all the tech will

so that would be my recommendation... get your expd multitool looking nice. get a good ship. copy them back over at the end.

and stock up on nanites on the expd save (salvagedglass is great for that), those all get transferred back, as do all units you make

[sour pier]

Okay cool!

[sour pier]

Thank you!

[sour pier]

What about exocraft I havent unlocked the Minotaur blueprint in my other world yet

[indigo falcon]

uh you won't be able to bring the minotaur blueprint back, but that's just paying salvaged data. you could bring back the minotaur tech though (DO NOT waste slots bringing the liquidator tech back, once you get those, you will be able to claim them for free once back on your main)

[sour pier]

Okay I’ll remove the Minotaur tech and not the swimming modules

[sour pier]

Where did you go for the deep sea monstrosities

[indigo falcon]

so the starter planet oceans are good for this. you want to land somewhere on the shoreline with ocean, not a lake, and look around using the HUD (red icon with a white orb, says 'alluring specimen'). don't see one? move 200u, try again, etc.

[sour pier]

Which system did we start in lol I can’t find any ocean planets

[indigo falcon]

all the system names (starter, drop zone, planets too) are in a pin in the channel. there's other helpful info in there too you may want to check out

[sour pier]

Life saver 🙂

[old ridge]

Hey guys, what should I do before finishing the expedition ? I'm near completing the last phase, is there anything to know before going back to my main save, like what I will keep etc ?

[sour pier]

Im not too sure

[sage mason]

you will not keep any technology or upgrades that are installed in your exosuit, so turn them into bundles before you end the expedition

[old ridge]

and I just keep them in my inventory then ?

[sage mason]

yeah

[old ridge]

oh okay nicee

[sour pier]

Would yall recommend finishing the expedition whenever or just finish it and go back to your other game mode

[sage mason]

just finish it imo

[dusty elm]

I've completed the expedition and have not closed it out completely. I want to take back to my main save the Minotaur, the multi-too,l plus some of the upgrades. How much in nanites will I need to transfer these? I have 184 nanites which I'm sure is not enough.

[wraith venture]

Per @sleek siren
If you haven't closed your expedition save yet:

you can install the tech, package it and send it through the terminal back to main save if started from main

[dusty elm]

I started it from an existing save

[wraith venture]

Correct. Hence why you can send the tech back to it if you wanted / needed to.

My assumption's been that when you get a reward in an expedition, you unlock it cross-save like all other expeditions but I haven't done this expedition to be able to confirm that's the case with Liquidator. Cc @remote thunder Is this still the case?

[remote thunder]

@dusty elm completing the optional milestones from phases 2, 3, 4 and 5 will unlock the liquidator blueprints account wide as well, and thus just need to be claimed from the anomaly/qs shop/create quicksilver items dialog option in any save the player currently has or will create in the future, under the same account.

you can indeed use your stash's 8 tech slots to bring back packaged tech or upgrade modules, but there's no need to (store and) bring back liquidator techs through the stash mechanic. to clarify, we can't copy exocrafts like we can ship and/or MT by paying nanites.

[wraith venture]

[dusty elm]

@wraith venture and @remote thunder thank you

[remote thunder]

glad we could help 🙂

[dusty elm]

Once I leave here I can come back, but can others that didn't participate in the expedition be able to enter this area/system and see my bases?

[ornate wing]

AFAIK it still follows the same rules, so you would need to upload said base to community and they could see that one.

[dusty elm]

thank you

[dusty elm]

Does the base computers I drop in the expedition count against my allotted amount of bases I can have in game, which I think is around 200, not sure.

[ornate wing]

Did you play the Expedition as a fresh save or new one?

[dusty elm]

I opened an older expedition I went on and use the ship and some things there. So I don't think that was a new save. Is that right?

[snow ruin]

Only people in the expedition can see the bases of other people in the expedition.
When people end an expedition and either go back to their normal save or turn the new save into a normal save their bases will only be visible to other people in the normal mode

[ornate wing]

Hence publishing one.

Like I still have all my bases I built during Expedition.

[gaunt fern]

one more walker!

[snow ruin]

When you publish it it becomes visible to people in the same game mode

The bases you make if you started from the anomaly will transfer to the ownership of the save you started it from when you end the expedition

At least from what I've been told, I haven't ended the expedition yet so I haven't got personal experience with it

[dusty elm]

Why would you keep an expedition open?

[snow ruin]

And the game modes that are exclusive to each other is Permadeath, Expedition, and everything else.

[snow ruin]

To mess around, do double the weekend QS missions, and such things

[dusty elm]

Will you eventually close it or always keep it open?

[snow ruin]

I'll end it before 10 days have gone from this point, I believe

[dusty elm]

my last one was the easiest because I knew what to expect and not do/do better

[remote thunder]

that's a good question. 1) to clarify, not 200, 400 base comps per save. as for the question, i'm not sure tbh, but i assume that, since they're merged with primary on finish, it's a shared limit between main save and expedition save.

[dusty elm]

thank you 🙂

[sour pier]

Can I take my s class multi tool back with me after I’m done?

I want to take it and the echo bolt on it but can’t figure out how to

[snow ruin]

If you started it from the Anomaly you can at any time go back to your main save through the options and then copy the Multitool (MT) to your main save for nanites.

#nms-questions message and #nms-questions message has some info

[rugged sail]

Can I spawn another walker without needing to escape and start another five waves?

[snow ruin]

When you take down a walker and the rest of the wave they become deactivated on that planet until you reload a save or warp out and back.

[cold fossil]

Ok, I'm on a Dissonant planet, where are the Sentinels at and how can I force spawn them?

[rugged sail]

Find a resonator and start blasting

Is it right that I can just keep duping my multi tool from the terminal after finishing the expo?

[cold fossil]

I found Grav Balls and took them, took a bit but I got the Minotaur Mission and the Kill Dissonant Sentinels missions done at the same time.

I'm almost done with the Expedition

[primal arch]

Same here. I just gotta get to Rendezvous 5 and do whatever the last mission is

[remote thunder]

yeah, but iirc, you have to scrap the existing one before you can copy it again from expedition terminus, not sure if that has changed to be like copy ship (no need to scrap ship before copying it again, if there's enough ship slots)

[cold fossil]

I did that, and now I have to kill 2 more walkers, make whatever food it is they want me to make, and then do the last mission

At least now I know

[primal arch]

Officially done with all the missions. Now I just gotta figure what to actually bring over

Unfortunately for me, I hoarded over 200 things and I can only bring over 24 💀

[indigo falcon]

don't forget that any items you cannot bring will be converted to units/nanites which will transfer over automatically.

[primal arch]

How does it decide if I get nanites or units? Does it go off of what is written in the description?

cuz if I can figure out how to maximize my nanites, I'll just give away stuff to people and let them get units (I have a metric fuck ton of them lmao)

[ocean gorge]

If you use an existing save, you just keep those items I guess, right? For that save you started the expedition on? I mean it wouldn’t matter to me if they were converted into units and nanites etc, but if you weren’t getting rid of the save, would they still be converted I guess is what I’m asking (which is fine like I said)?

[primal arch]

It converts over once you revert back to your existing save. If you start expedition from the get-go, you get to keep it if I understand correctly

also W avi

[balmy pagoda]

Anyone have suggestions how to get more mech kills in Iron Giants? I only have 2/4 and I can't get anymore to spawn even though I aggro sentinels

[final wave]

U need to kill the Sentinel Walkers, they are like, only shows up when your wanted level is maximum

[primal arch]

Also once you clear that giant, the sentinels leave you alone on that planet so you have to save and quit and come back (or warp in and out)

[balmy pagoda]

Oh OK thanks, how many wanted level until I hit maximum?

[low jackal]

5

they stop spawning once you killed the 5th wave

save and reload to restore them

[balmy pagoda]

👍

[sick jay]

another way is getting to 5th wave, then killing walker without killing everthing else, then hide untill they go away and aggro again then repeat

i did them all on the same planet that way

[vestal gate]

any new expeditions running?

[wraith junco]

Exp 14

[indigo falcon]

According to the update notes for Omega (when playing expeditions from an existing save was first introduced), "unwanted items will be sold automatically and converted to units or nanites as appropriate." which sounds like it uses the sell price in the description indeed.

[indigo falcon]

if you start now/soon you can get the currently running expedition ("Liquidators") done before it ends on Sept 2

[vestal gate]

AHH YES i ALLREADY DID THAT ONE

[ancient field]

You can also use your own walker's scanner and find a depot if you're having trouble getting a fight started.

[indigo falcon]

if you find an op centre on an aggro sentinel planet (using e.g. secure site maps from a cartographer) a walker will be guarding those, so you don't even have to wait for waves.

[old ridge]

hey, is there any way to obtain the rewards from previous expeditions ?

[old ridge]

this

sorry for my bad english 😦

[snow ruin]

Nomansapp doesn't work unless you're online and have multiplayer, the mods way apparently requires you to be offline

[serene flax]

how do you easily harvest 900 things in one burst?

[snow ruin]

Prepare enough things, for example. As written in the pins

[frail cloud]

Minotaur. Big and fast laser. No heat.

[serene flax]

thank you! i couldnt see anything in the pins that mentiosn it for some reason

damm, looks like i forgot to grab a apex creature in the early parts of the expedition

ill have to return to one of the systems after im done

[indigo falcon]

for the 900 resources, another option is (make sure your mining beam is fully charged first), just use the regular mining beam, on those egg-shaped plants you can find in cave entrances, find one with a bunch of them close together (I did this on the starter planet before even leaving there), tap to keep from overheating, if you do run out of charge then quick menu to recharge as fast as possible and the timer won't even reset. do have the milestone pinned so you can watch the count in the lower right, that count is NOT the same as the actual number of resources you will harvest but rather a lot lower, we guess there may be a cap on the amount of resources harvested per second that gets counted.

[snow ruin]

Yes, there is: #nms-expedition message from #nms-expedition message that is pinned

[serene flax]

ah! my mistake, my discord formated the pinned message so that part of the message was cropped out, i just saw the first few lines at the top about starting and finishing a expedition. i was under the impression that pin was for brand new players

thank you very much though

[snow ruin]

It's a collection instead of having 17 pins about each thing.

[serene flax]

yup i see that now, thank you

im nearing the end of this expedition now, oh happy days

[snow ruin]

I blame Discord

[serene flax]

just gotta earn nanites, destroy 4 walkers and.... find abysal horros

i really really dont like those...

its enough to almost make me second guess if i want the final reward

[indigo falcon]

they aren't abyssal horrors, you want "alluring specimens" which are different! but still found underwater.

[snow ruin]

I've edited it so the first line makes it clearer that it's a collection of stuff

[serene flax]

yeah, the big fat fish right?

that make an awful sound

[serene flax]

thats fantastic!

[indigo falcon]

yes, those are the ones, which you see after harvesting orbs that turn into hadal cores.

[serene flax]

hopfully it will help a bunch of people in the final few days

[serene flax]

😢

i just dont fuck with the water in this game

no chance

[snow ruin]

Thanks to you for pointing out the possibility of improving the message

[indigo falcon]

just have your scatter loaded and let 'em have it when they show up. it'll be ok. (p.s. if the thing is underground, just leave and find another)

[serene flax]

yeah

they spawn in the walls

im at the disonant system before r5 right now so ill need to probs backtrack to find a water planet

[indigo falcon]

starter planet works. there's others too

[serene flax]

ok cool
