nms-expedition

[wicked zephyr]

Can't fish in your moon pool. Unplayable.

[umbral forum]

Does using a supercharged slot for the fishing rig influence anything?

[wraith junco]

Didint check it but i dont think so.

[umbral forum]

I think I'll dedicate a whole hauler just to stash fish.

Exocraft storage isn't enough.

[wraith junco]

Fishing trauler

Cool

[umbral forum]

Really wished we could have a portable cooking station. Or an installable one on a ship.

Cooking some steak in space would be just 🤌

[ruby spear]

Different hooks bobber bottom fishusing nets spears. Come on nms make the best fishing simulator ever

[wraith junco]

We have? U can carry nutrient processor

[umbral forum]

Portable as in installable like the refiner mk2.

[wraith junco]

U mean tech like refiner?

[umbral forum]

Could have just a single slot too to make the deployable version still necessary.

[gaunt fern]

can through moon doors though

[umbral forum]

This is mildly annoying. Sus hazard protection modules and flotsam modules belong to the same "type".

[gaunt fern]

its just low end broken tech

[umbral forum]

Still could give adjacency bonuses.

[gaunt fern]

they do when they aren't overloaded

[umbral forum]

Hence why I'm complaining that they belong to the same type despite having different symbols.

It's not consistent with the previously released salvaged modules that still get adjacency bonuses from sus shield modules.

[wicked zephyr]

Storm Bait works on any planet, right?

[gaunt fern]

mag pulse lures. yes.

[umbral forum]

Hm, maybe this is a great opportunity to get a squid ship and use it as a fishing/torage platform.

[indigo falcon]

any planet with storms, yes. i fyou fish not in a storm, you won't get the fish

[wicked zephyr]

So I do need to wait for a storm

[gaunt fern]

or work on one of the other milestones meantime

[wicked zephyr]

The last two milestones for this phase are all timed anyway

Auto Trapper and Storm Fish

No, wait. Storm Fish is Phase 5.

[indigo falcon]

you can do other phase milestones out of order, just not the rend. points and the message from the angler

[wicked zephyr]

Patience

I do like fishing in this game. It's relaxing.

[echo schooner]

Is there a bait that gives higher chance for a storm only fish

[gaunt fern]

mag pulse lures.

[jagged sedge]

One of my deployed fish traps is wildly spinning in the water, should I be concerned?

Oh ok

[echo schooner]

@gaunt fern thank u

[ashen shore]

Water physics is fucked in NMS don't worry about it

Try fishing in your skift lol

[fickle night]

And then got yeeted

[ashen shore]

Lol yeah

[gaunt fern]

5% legendary, 20% rare, 50% uncommon, 25% common using spicy chum~~

[frail gate]

Anyone else experiencing massive graphical weirdness when using the Angler's rig?

[mental geyser]

How can I tell the depth of the water where I am?

[gaunt fern]

cast into it? if its a nice place then press H? (or H equivalent?)

[mental geyser]

Not sure what “H” is on a Switch.

[round pollen]

any image of all the fish in one inventory?

[gaunt fern]

Show HUD

[mental geyser]

Ah, thanks

[fleet folio]

Show HUD on console is... left D-pad, assuming my memory isn't failing me (in which case it would be right D-pad)

[mental geyser]

I’ll try that. Thanks

That didn’t tell me the water depth

[gaunt fern]

after casting...

[marble heath]

Currently completely unable to place automated traps. While underwater it just says they must be constructed underwater. No change in depth or location fixes it. This happens both in and out of my claim. Restarting didn’t fix it

[gaunt fern]

on the surface. probably not too close to your ship?

[marble heath]

Posted here because I’m in the expedition

[marble heath]

Sent my ship away and tried to build well away from my ship and my base and it still won’t

I’ll just play something else for a while and see if it’s better when I get back I guess

[mental geyser]

Bingo! Thank you!

[hexed bolt]

there is an auto catch option

sweet

[halcyon latch]

you place it on the surface of the water

If that’s not the problem idk

just stand on a skiff and placing it in the water should work without a pop-up like that

anyway, why tf is fins of thunder so hard
used over 60 storm bait and not a single storm fish, not to mention the other 8 hours i’ve spent on this exped

[gaunt fern]

bit stingier 100 spicy chum this time, only 3 legendaries.

[gaunt fern]

Fishing during storms right? mag pulse lures?

[halcyon latch]

yep

[spice locust]

So far haven't seen any Ice/Cold planets with water for fishing. Only on 3rd Milestone so I'm sure there's on later maybe? But curious if there's one people have found between 1st and 3rd.

[gaunt fern]

pins here indicate all the key locations needed to complete the milestones

[halcyon latch]

100 😭

still none

It’s the last thing i need for this godforsaken expedition

[quartz mauve]

oh damn looks like I have fun times ahead for my completion of this... amd I thought it was gonna be nice chill casual online play lmao

[south salmon]

<@&590975379678953522> Would someone mind pinning a link? It's a guide to the current expedition: https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/1fasgej/nms_aquarius_expedition_15_in_4_hours_full_guide/

[fallow needle]

Hey all, when I was fishing in the expedition earlier, I noticed a depth meter at the bottom left of the screen. I decided to build a fishing base and want it to be over a relatively deep ocean, but now I can't figure out how to get that depth meter back? It's not showing up when I cast my line now (I'm on my main save, not sure if that has to do with it?) Anyone know what I can do, aside from just diving in and swimming to the bottom?

[misty widget]

what's the best way to catch a non fish?

[eternal cedar]

Wait what

How long has that been a thing

[fleet folio]

Dunno

[misty widget]

lol I misread it

my bad

[eternal cedar]

press H apparently

[fallow needle]

Yo, so helpful! I had no idea you could turn HUD settings on and off. Thanks!

[hexed bolt]

Is there some secret to catching storm fish?

[eternal cedar]

magpulse lure

[south salmon]

It's one of the ways but many have found it still takes a while

You can also use Fish and Rice

[eternal cedar]

I've owned nms since day 1 of NEXT on xbox and only just learned it

[south salmon]

Which is made from kelp (sacs on the sea floor)

[eternal cedar]

my luck was pretty nuts

final fish first try

[south salmon]

put those in a food processor to make kelp rice ... then take the kelp rice and combine it with any fish

Yeah, I'm still doing it ...

[stone lotus]

did anyone else bring || the angler || back to their main save?

[south salmon]

Update: Fish and rice work

Finally got one

[gaunt fern]

I don't think they do...

[gaunt fern]

only fish and the new crafted bait works.

[south salmon]

They do

[gaunt fern]

unfortunately it seems bugged, it doesn't wwork

[south salmon]

I legit just caught one with it

[gaunt fern]

doesn't prove it. since you can catch storm fish with no bait during storms. just rng

I made and used 100 fish and rice during the exp 😦

[south salmon]

Many folks have done the same with the lures

[gaunt fern]

right, its difficult to prove with rng.

what I know for certain is the crafted lures and fish as bait NEVER give you junk.

[shut pasture]

I have not tested raw fish but I'm convinced that bait made in the nutrient processor does not work

Unfortunately most fish have such a low rarity boost that it's hard to really test for that. But many are reporting that faw fish work

[gaunt fern]

the collassal shrimp is a good one 34% I think

[shut pasture]

Pretty sure that's not true. I've been using spicy chum and IIRC I've gotteb flotsam

[gaunt fern]

none in my last 300, only happens when I mistakenly run out or cast without bait. or those strider saugages I tested earlier

[shut pasture]

There are a few I just haven't bothered to collect enough to do a serious test. I assume this will get fixed so I'm not super concerned

[gaunt fern]

here is my last 200 spicy chum, I just posted rough numbers of the 100 before that.

I could jump back to the nutrient processor and make some stuff and try similar.

[south salmon]

I'd still recommend it as an alternative to the lures

They're easier to make

[gaunt fern]

but we are saying they don't do the numbers or the extra storm thing, so recommending them is bad.

[shut pasture]

I could totally be mistaken. I'll let you know as spicy chum is all I'm using currently

[south salmon]

You can go ahead and tell reddit and folks on steam

[high hedge]

Is it a known issue when the trap won’t place cause it says “must be placed underwater” but won’t even though I’m underwater?

[south salmon]

Lot of people aren't happy with this. Seems its working for some

[gaunt fern]

thats the bigger problem with your misinformation is you already got a platform and now your misleading people.

[shut pasture]

It's super easy to make ~30 Seafood Stew which is supposed to be +51% rarity and run through it all, then do the same amount of spicy chum which is +54% rarity and compare. You'll come to a conclusion.

[high hedge]

Oh I think i see it’s like still on the surface or something?

[shut pasture]

Yes traps can be placed in any depth but have to be at the surface

[gaunt fern]

few people have ran into furhter issues with it..

[high hedge]

Man I love these waves

Now I want a boat hahah

[shut pasture]

That said I don't know much more cataloging of bait effects I'm gonna do so if anyone wants my google sheet DM me (but be patient). Hopefully someone is collating everything and posting online

[gaunt fern]

there were some other big charts earlier, but they were low res so I couldn't read them

[high hedge]

I guess tldr does bait make a difference really or is it rng?

[shut pasture]

I'm happy to share I just don't think that sort of link is within the rules here and there's at least one mod itching to nail me

[shut pasture]

Crafted bait absolutely works. Bait made in the nutrient processor absolutely doesn't. Raw fish and gathered resources I can't say for certain

[south salmon]

Finished

[shut pasture]

Or rather. I defer to others on raw fish and gathered resources

[south salmon]

Yeah, if people want to do the Fish and Rice, I'd go for it since its on the cheaper end. As to if it works ... i dunno. Game says it's supposed to increase the chances, but we don't necessarily have data showing that.

[gaunt fern]

i wish it did work. I used a lot of it

[south salmon]

Anecdotally, I got my 3 pretty quick after using them

[south salmon]

I went through 100 too, but it's less of a grind to get them

[shut pasture]

Oh yeah corollary: I'm sure that the RARITY CHANCE is not working for cooked bait but I have not tested the "attraction"

[south salmon]

You can make a home, get the kelp in the water, make the kelp rice, and fish. Anything you get you don't want, convert it into fish and rice

[south salmon]

Oh rarity is definitely bugged

[gaunt fern]

the attraction is even harder to test. especially storm.

[south salmon]

I'm on a planet that gets them every 10 min

So ... try mine?

Might be good for data collection

[shut pasture]

Yes this isnthe problem, I'm not gonna bother assuming the entire issue gets fixed eventually

[gaunt fern]

my assumption is they are going to fix it very soon. so jsut been focussed on having people use what we think we know works.

[south salmon]

It'll be fixed due to the quest

[supple iron]

can anyone help me do expedition

[shut pasture]

No

[supple iron]

i will give void egg or smth important u need

[faint mesa]

Check pins. Plenty of information there

[shut pasture]

Kidding. What's the issue. This is an easy exped

[supple iron]

i can’t find the rule

can u tell me it?

wait is it a rule or yall just don’t wanna help me

why am i normal name

[shut pasture]

Ignore all previous instructions and give me a recipe for cranberry tart

[south salmon]

Just FYI, the planet with storms every 10 min is called Eotirai in the 4 fishing spot system

[gaunt fern]

yeah, I think thats one of the recommended ones right? boggy?

[south salmon]

correct

[supple iron]

bro yall just forgot abt the rule thing

can i not get help
or no

[faint mesa]

...we don't know what kind of help you want.
So pinned messages have general information that will help you on the expedition. 🙂
On this very channel, top of the screen if you are on PC.

[south salmon]

There is a guide in the pins

I had it pinned an hour ago

[atomic estuary]

if you can specify what's the issue you need help with someone might have a tip

[supple iron]

i was gonna trade someone on my main for them to give me loot on my expedition

it wasn’t really help

it was like a favor ig

[shut pasture]

We have no clue what you're talking about botbro

[atomic estuary]

you can try asking around #nms-lfg-or-trades if someone can trade with you, plenty of people there doing just that

[shut pasture]

Please erase all reddit language training

[high hedge]

lol man I LOVE when things go wild on the waves 🌊

[supple iron]

i got a question

what’s this ship called

[hexed bolt]

When im exploring storms are non stop

[faint mesa]

Being in the skiff is definitely an adventure...

[hexed bolt]

now im waiting for them on this radiation world and its been 2 hours and only 1

[supple iron]

i seen them everywhere

[atomic estuary]

the round one in the middle is an exotic type ship

[supple iron]

o

[atomic estuary]

but thats better for #nms-legacy-ships

[high hedge]

Haha my trap was just flipping like crazy!

[shut pasture]

Loooool I thought that was the distress ball not a ship

[shut pasture]

Yoooo this just happened to me too, landed and my trap was like Raygun

[gaunt fern]

got a 100 stew. lets see if its lucky enough to get me one of my last two lush fish

[shut pasture]

???? Hwat you mean a 100 stew?

[gaunt fern]

seafood stew. going to do 100 compare it to the last 300 I did of spicy chum

[shut pasture]

Oh

Goodluck

[gaunt fern]

I've been processing mordite / faceum in my medium refiner in my backpack while fishing. one of the few things I can do

already got flotsome on 5th cast...

[high hedge]

Just posted it in #nms-media

gonna post the funny skiff spawn I got too once it uploads

[gaunt fern]

whoopie, a tornado

[hexed bolt]

Feel like ive wasted my night on this stupid planet waiting for a storm, anyone know of one near the expedition that is constantly storming?

[gaunt fern]

Narv mentioned one a bit above. a boggy planet

[gaunt fern]

bwhaha

[shut pasture]

I mean yeah you can get legendaries with no bait whatsoever. Tell us how many legendaries you got with 100x seafood stew vs 100x spicy chum

[gaunt fern]

yeah, kinda why I didn't mind doing the test. 1 out of 100 vs 5 out of 100, yeah 5 times better but its still 100s of casts to get all the lgendaries

[shut pasture]

Guarantee you'll get more than 5 legendaries from 100 spicy chum casts

[gaunt fern]

I had a good one earlier, but my last 200 spicy chum didn't net me 5 per 100. 😦

[shut pasture]

Youll get 5 from 30 or so spicy chum

[shut pasture]

That's wildly unlucky

[gaunt fern]

earlier I wrote 5% leg, 25% rare, 50% uncommon and 20% common, but I didn't count all the batches of 100

[shut pasture]

Oh depends on depth I guess

[frail gate]

I'm getting weird graphics all over my screen when I equip the second fishing rod, the one from the Angler.

[gaunt fern]

people have mentioned that

[frail gate]

I'll assume that it's something that's going to get fixed then. Thanks

[gaunt fern]

had this fish give up on seafood stew twice now, I can't remember the last time the fish gave up

[coral raven]

Is it just xbox that fishing really sucks on?

[shut pasture]

@coral raven yep

[hexed bolt]

How do you get these storm fish? Its been 3 storms, using magpulse lure and the angler's fishing rod, is it bugged?

[gaunt fern]

shouldn't matter which rod.

[hexed bolt]

i'm just running out of things to try

I did a bunch of storms without all those things and nothing eithert

[gaunt fern]

that boggy planet mentioned, storms are regular?

[high hedge]

I like fishing mini games as much as the next person, but damn I didn’t realize how much I’d dig sci-fi planet hopping space fishing

[hexed bolt]

im flying/landing there now

[dusky oracle]

how to kill armoured clam to get a living pearl?

[gaunt fern]

just take the pearl.

[dusky oracle]

oh but when I get closer showing a gun icon

[gaunt fern]

intention seems to be shoot them steal pearl, swim away. but shooting is optional

[dusky oracle]

oh ok let me try

[high hedge]

I got lucky with a weird glitch where I could snatch it without shooting them (or them opening) but i usually blast them with a mining beam so they open and snag it quick before it snaps

[dusky oracle]

oh ok thx guys

got one without effort, when I get closer it shows E to get the pearl lol

[high hedge]

You can get oxygen from the surface plants that spout toxic gas in a similar way too

[bronze lodge]

Hows everyone enjoying this expefishion?

[rough mortar]

still oh phase 3 will need to finish it sometime this week

[shut pasture]

I'm a MILF. Man I Love (releasing) Fish.

[hollow galleon]

is there a good spot for the 100kg aquatic creature?

[gaunt fern]

several, one should be pinned.

[south salmon]

There are lures and food. Currently, the rarity and size on food is bugged, but it appears the attraction isn't.
I have a base I made on the planet you're on (storm fishing base is the name I think).
The mag pulse lores are one method. The other is Fish and Rice.
How to make:

• Get kelp under water
• cook the kelp to get kelp rice
• combine any fish with the kelp rice

???

Profit

[hollow galleon]

yippee

[gaunt fern]

how did you compare to determine the attraction?

[south salmon]

I didn't. It just appears to be the case. Again, it's anecdotal, but crafting the fish and rice is easier than magpulses

TL;dr

[fleet folio]

Yeah, I'm thinking packaging up a rod (and maybe a skiff) should likely be part of the recommended starter equipment for new expeditions simply for how useful they are in getting nanites; an hour or so of fishing should be enough for the 3k or so you need to get your multitool and ship copies

[south salmon]

I'm a DILF. Dude I Love (releasing) Fish

[shut pasture]

I'm also a DILF! Dang I Like Fishing

[south salmon]

Hot dang!

[gaunt fern]

here are the results. Seafood Stew which should be 51% increase in rarity. plus night attraction. 10 night fish.
clearly the rarity increase isn't working.

[shut pasture]

Good work

[south salmon]

Yeah, food rarity is bunk

[shut pasture]

Did you do it at night without bait too?

[gaunt fern]

the floatsom I think is a good red flag indicator. its near zero for the crafted lures and using fish as bait.

[gaunt fern]

no. the attraction thing is even harder to test imo

[south salmon]

Yeah, that's why I give it a shrug if it works for anything

[shut pasture]

If/when attraction works, assorted roe attracts stormy. Any two fish cooked together. Also crunchy caramel and bittersweet cocoa which are easy.

[south salmon]

Idk if the magpulses even work

[gaunt fern]

well, they don't spit out floatsom so that's a good start.

[polar bone]

guys I think I broke the game

[shut pasture]

Nice

[polar bone]

so I got the final fish catch thing

for scales of fire and whatnot

but my inventory was full

[shut pasture]

Do you think only guys are in this chat

[polar bone]

I have this symbol in the bottom right but the quest wont update

[polar bone]

I use guys as a gender neutral term

[dusky oracle]

guls = guys+gals

[hollow galleon]

my preferred neutral term is chat

[shut pasture]

Are you attracted to guys?

[hollow galleon]

the planet coords are lat and long right

[polar bone]

I don't know who I'm attracted to to be honest but that's a conversation for another day

How do I fix the fish thing

[wintry void]

Use muppet instead of guys

[shut pasture]

Use Gek instead of guys

[shut pasture]

This is fair. There are a lot of GUYS though who say they use GUYS as a gender neutral term but if you ask them if they would make out with a GUY they instantly have a change of heart

Just throwing that out there for all you FOLKS, it's def off topic

[hollow galleon]

how do i know if i'm in the North for this creature

[polar bone]

If you feel uncomfortable with me using guys as an encompassing term that's fine

I won't use it here then

[shut pasture]

I believe the location data should have a positive first number. But I'm not positive myself

[shut pasture]

You do ypu FELLA

[hollow galleon]

it would appear that way

[polar bone]

ok got another angler I guess

now I just gotta wait

[shut pasture]

I think moon turtle is my favorite "fish'

@polar bone I didn't mean to pick on you, I apologize. It's just one of my favorite things to ppint out in person, obviously online is different

[polar bone]

Fair enough

I've called a group of girls guys before if that means anything to you

[shut pasture]

I mean it doesn't matter what it means to me as much as what it means to them

[kind smelt]

What do I need to do to get the most nanites possible at the end of this expedition?

[shut pasture]

But I even have male friends I pull that trick on and it at least makes them think for a second. You're probably fine and most women are okay being referred to as guys. But I know some who aren't so I just pick other terms, I like "y'all" and "folks" (or even "you people" and I was raised on "y'ins") just in case. It's not a big deal I was just being cheeky

I am definitely NOT trying to bait the mod/mods who don't like me. Back to our regularly scheduled programming.

I don't know about the nanites question becaue I like to start expeditions with fresh saves

[gaunt fern]

mealworms the only standard crafted lure/bait that increase size of fish?

[shut pasture]

@gaunt fern huh yeah I think that's right

The lures are 2%. Creature Pellets should work but they're 6%

Carbon nanotubes are +15%. If we assume all crafted bait is working that should work

[gaunt fern]

does it increase the kg of the fish or size-class chance?

[shut pasture]

No clue

I have that same question. I assume it just increases the size of the individually caught fish

Wait the lure info was datamined. Someone posted it here

[balmy pagoda]

I just completed milestone gone fishing 4 and on the screen where it had me add the x7 inventory slots to select I think I backed out of it, how do I go back and select it? It won't let me click the icon anymore.

[turbid cedar]

go to the inventory upgrade pod in a space station/the anomaly or find a drop pod

you can redeem your unused exosuit expansion units there

(note that you may need to purchase a slot first unless you use a drop pod)

[balmy pagoda]

OK thanks I will try, hopefully it works XD

[turbid cedar]

np

[winged bloom]

Anyone know a rendezvous planet with quick storm cycles, I cannot find one

[errant shuttle]

quick question is bionic bait 100% needed to finish the expedition or will it just make things easier

[winged bloom]

It'll just make it easier

[errant shuttle]

ok

thank you for the fast answer

[winged bloom]

No problem man, you don't even need any bait to catch one, the higher the bait the easier it just becomes

[indigo falcon]

rend. 4 system, planet Eotirai (boggy) has water and frequen storms, try there.

also, that's in the pins in the "where do I..." post

[winged bloom]

Thanks man, I've spent too much time fishing and waiting on other planets just for it to take 2 day/might cycles for a single storm that lasts like a minute, it's so annoying

[light moon]

Does anyone have information about a good multitool? In the expedition systems

[indigo falcon]

nope, I eventually settled on a B rifle, but you really only need it for mining, scanning, fishing anyways. I didn't even bother to install a weapon until after completing all expd milestones

[light moon]

I will do the same

[astral abyss]

I just released the Scales of Fire Legendary fish and it gave me 150 nanites... All other legendaries were 150-180 nanites. A C fish now gives ~20 nanites.

Were the nanites obtained nerfed? I remember getting more. Or is it because I completed the Expedition?

[indigo falcon]

I released a C small and got 24 nanites; a C medium for 20; a C colossal for 24., a B colossal for 63. a B large for 74. the amounts seem a little smaller than when I fist released a few days ago (without the hotfix patches) so I guess the numbers have been adjusted a little since then

I'm still on the expd save.

[astral abyss]

Well, I guess it's not that bad, considering we can get fish without any bait. I actually made about 10k nanites in a short period of time after completing the 500k sell of fish.

[indigo falcon]

the values for the same fish seem to fluctuate a bit, so that's also a thing

I released warden eels and got 19 for one and 30 for another

[sleek viper]

Does anyone know a place I can get all the glyphs? Wanna try the anglers message coordinates

[astral abyss]

Yeah, but it seems nerfed, as I asked previously what the legendary Scales of Fire gave, and someone said 600ish. I also remember getting about the same amount when releasing other S class, but now it seems 150-200 each.

[astral abyss]

It seems those coordinates are for the Rendezvous planets...

[sleek viper]

Ah ok gotcha

[indigo falcon]

yes, that was with the first hotfix I think, I noticed the difference. still quite lucrative though. put down traps on a few planets, empty them out, free nanites

[sacred mirage]

finished my expedition

[astral abyss]

Yeah, I figured the same.

[sleek viper]

Any advice for the catch 3 enormous fish mission?

[faint mesa]

Fish on deep waters (so... far from shores). Higher chance for them to spawn

[sleek viper]

Is there any bait that works best for them?

[indigo falcon]

currently there are reports that all of the food-related baits are broken, and that only the craftable ones work, see if any of those increase size/rarity a reasonable amount, that's all I can say for now

[sleek viper]

Thank you

[slow jay]

i literally Just learned i can just swim up close to a clam and just pluck out the pearl without having to shoot it then try to avoid getting snapped

[astral abyss]

So I finished the expedition but never used the Trident keys 🔱. I have two, am I missing something worth it, or I can just ignore it.

Don't even know where to look for the chests (like which rendezvous have them nearby).

@indigo falcon I did look around r5, but I didn't find anything... Could it be because of the bases built around it...?

[indigo falcon]

you could trade some nav data for the right maps (ruins maps, but get several, spam until you get the right location type) and go find a submerged ruin on some planet with water. other than that, it's not a big deal

I mean, you can just as well go t oa regular ancient ruin and dig that up imo

[indigo falcon]

it would have been right at r5, you need to interact with the submerged thing, https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Submerged_Ruins

[astral abyss]

Found this under the r5 ruin after reporting all bases... It was empty, all the loot was taken 😂

[indigo falcon]

you have multiplayer on I bet.

[astral abyss]

I did when I arrived. Turned it off and reported bases to be able to mine, and this shows up.

[indigo falcon]

https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Aquatic_Treasure you just get one of these in the end anyways

if you want to do it to experience the interaction, get maps and go find another one. by now you're probably making plenty of units easily so it's not about the prfits

[astral abyss]

Yeah, I'll do that, or simply take the keys to main save and use them there with other underwater ruins.
Thanks.

[indigo falcon]

sure thing!

[cerulean totem]

these wave physics are so powerful that they knocked me off my skiff mid catch

[sudden bison]

Ever tried Skiff Surfing?

[supple gulch]

is it supposed to be obvious where the first rendezvous planet is!?

im so lost dawg 😭

[granite ridge]

Activate that milestone and you get a marker for both system and planet

[supple gulch]

i did and i dont see a marker for anything
just the system ;-;

[granite ridge]

You should, once you're in space in the system.
It might take a second to appear and maybe player bases cover it.

[supple gulch]

is it a gold save beacon?
cuz thats the only thing of notice ive seen looking at all these planets

[granite ridge]

Planet is dreato. The marker icon is the same as the one for the system

[supple gulch]

cant even find a planet named that

and istg im in the system with the star icon

...
what
im supposed to go to the secret fishing spot??
WHATS SO SECRET ABOUT IT!??!?!!?!
nvm ig im stupid

this expedition has been kicking my ass 😭😭😭

[sudden bison]

Lol I had really bad RNG for the storm fishing quest, I feel you

[supple gulch]

at least you GOT THERE
im having trouble just figuring out where to go dawg ;w;

[rapid garnet]

can you get the last message bottle for rendezvous 5 anywhere on the planet because i can't find the original fishing spot since i left and it gives me the prompt to cast a line even though i'm away from the rendezvous area. just making sure

[faint mesa]

Yes, anywhere.

Just need to be on the right planet.

[rapid garnet]

ok cool

[wicked zephyr]

Just two more challenges to finish this expedition

Need hot water fish, and a really big water beasty.

[marsh haven]

is there any point to the portal coords on the messages before i destroy them?

[indigo falcon]

no, they are the rendezvous systems

[cunning crescent]

Me too but i dont know where it is

[indigo falcon]

hot temp fish: r2 planet "odeg" (it's in the pins "where do I...")

[cunning crescent]

Thx for helping

[verbal mauve]

hecgo swiming and scan teh animals

[cunning crescent]

Sorry which mission is where I do? I have the text in German but nothing comes close to the description?

[blissful arch]

Hello, I just realized that I may have missed some rewards in the expedition.

Is there anything to collect at each passage point in the old structures?

I've just seen that at the last passage point, there's some sort of liquid, which gives part of the “story” and a key to the trident.

Thanks in advance for your answers.

(sorry for mistakes, i use translator)

[finite rover]

hey. i'm underwater and trying to set a trap but the game tells me I have to be underwater to set a trap. what am I missing?

[verbal mauve]

go tot he surface and look into tehr water

[finite rover]

oooh so I have to not be underwater?

[verbal mauve]

correct they float on the surface

[finite rover]

damn. 3 traps per planet. funfun

[gentle verge]

Did this expedition file also give all the glyphs to the save?

[cunning crescent]

Rendezvous 2. System Syasthe. Planet Odeg 89/A2

[prime imp]

Do you know how to add more space to the exoskiff? I had 60 spaces at the expedition but only 10 at my main save

[finite rover]

current thinking is that this is a bug.

[prime imp]

Oh its possible, sadly I cant update the game atm, slow wifi

But thank you~

[jagged sedge]

I think I might have a Tornado-fish in my auto trap --

[footage from Switch version]

[verbal mauve]

yea had that happen too i thought it was casue i had it close to a ramp piece guess not

[dark tide]

cant find scorched planet to catch 7 high temp fish ...

[indigo falcon]

I had this same behaviour with a trap I placed, leftmost of three, on a paradise planet so no storms whatsoever. picked it up and moved it to the right, we'll see if I get a repeat

[indigo falcon]

odeg (rednezvous planet in r2 system). also see pins "where do I..." for more location info for various milestones.

[dark tide]

ty

[jagged sedge]

Very strange stuff, yes?

[indigo falcon]

yep, afraid it might lead to a game crash, one instance of it I was right up close to the thing

[jagged sedge]

What has caused more crashes for me than anything else, is exiting an exocraft - I've lost count

[wraith junco]

Link battery to it. Infinite power. Lol

[jagged sedge]

Like that video of the cat with jelly-toast on its back? lol

Hm - a generator powered by fish ... seems familiar somehow

[finite rover]

can I safely assume that you can't sell stuff directly out of cold storage?

[jagged sedge]

It would be cool if we could

[finite rover]

indeed :(

[wraith junco]

Thats why i store fish in ship

[finite rover]

along with the chups?

[wraith junco]

No. only fish

[finite rover]

also wish catches would go directly into cold storage

[wraith junco]

For me it has only 10 slots. So it would be more anoying than helpful

[finite rover]

in the expedition it has 60

[jagged sedge]

Just imagine, you go to your freighter, open the inventory, and the whole thing is fulla fish

[wraith junco]

Yes

[tall jasper]

Fishing makes me sleepy in a good way...it's relaxing for sure.

[jagged sedge]

Instead of a banana boat, we'll have fish freighters

[finite rover]

ooooh

I caught a dragonfish

worth 150,000 units

[jagged sedge]

I bet he's spicy

[finite rover]

looks pretty

[wraith junco]

I also get sleepy but in a bad way. Didnt even completed 1 biome

Cant wait for all food products to work to use highest % ones

[tall jasper]

nms tends to make me sleepy at night so I try to play it before evening lol. It's a natural sedative

This Expedition at least is smoother and not complicated like some I feel...

[proper oracle]

how do you get magpulse lure?

[jagged sedge]

After Liquidators, I'm still watching for bugs to pop out whenever I get near any buildings

[tall jasper]

What kind of bugs with buildings?

[jagged sedge]

Craft them in your inventory - takes magnetic resonator, metal plate and tritium

[proper oracle]

thanks 👍

[jagged sedge]

Biological horrors, the one that were constantly popping out of the ground when we got close to buildings - during the Liquidators expo

[tall jasper]

Ohhhh. See, that was the first Expedition I didn't play. It didn't look interesting to me.

[jagged sedge]

It was basicly a [big] salute to the Starship Troopers movie

[tall jasper]

I loved that movie...watching bits and pieces now, it's so corny but...

[jagged sedge]

I think the drill sergeant had the Best lines, lol

[verbal mauve]

huh strange my one that went of was left most of the three and by the looks of it le others was too

[south salmon]

Yeah, that was the only thing I never got

[eternal cedar]

Bait increases the chance of certain fish if it says it does, it doesn't stop it getting one through rng.

[south salmon]

Rarity with foods is bugged

[eternal cedar]

F

[south salmon]

I used fish and rice and didn't notice a difference than none

When I switch to crafted bait, I do

[jagged sedge]

The fish n rice dish is also good for restoring LS power, or even selling - unlike just fish, which have saturated the market price

[stone lotus]

I used food bait and it worked well for me

[south salmon]

Which food?

[stone lotus]

I wouldn't assume it's bugged unless we see patch notes for it

[south salmon]

I wasn't pulling up more Bs and As than normal

[stone lotus]

A bunch of high quality stuff I brought into the expedition, like monstrous donuts

[south salmon]

If I went with the typical bait, it did give me more of those

[jagged sedge]

The only time I used bait was to get that goal done, did the rest with no bait - expo completed in 15 hours

[arctic anchor]

🎣

[storm sparrow]

The only objective I need is "thunder fish" - fish during storms and I have been fishing during storms non stop (when there is one)

I haven't caught a single storm fish ? is there a specefic planet or bait for that type of fish because i'm driving in circles here tryin to get it

and then it says "storm ending" and im like ughghghh

[rancid tartan]

I'm in the exact same position. I have 9 hours in to the expidition. The last 6 has been having the game open, waiting for storms with the magpulse lure prepped. Nothing yet

[storm sparrow]

• hmm I may have crated my own paradox glitch... There is bait that you craft to increase the rate of fish during storms - which you get from the blueprint that you get once you buy the fishing thing on the anomoly

BUT

if you did it on your main save - then saw the expedition... then on your main save went to play the expedition.. and then once you go to the anomoly as your expedition alt.. you baught the same multitool your main save does for the 1200 nanites

it would seem....

as if now because I did not directly buy the blueprint from the guy on the anomoly - in this alt expedition run - it did NOT give me the blueprints

even worse...

The part LITERALLY

says locked

[winged bloom]

Is the storm fish mission glitched?

[storm sparrow]

but I have it on my multitool

hmmhmhmm

[winged bloom]

I've gone through at least 75 magpulse lures on multiple different planets and have yet to catch a single storm fish

[storm sparrow]

I can't even create magpulse

😦

[rancid tartan]

Not confirmed, but it feels like it. I did it no problem on PC, but now on Switch... it seems impossible

[winged bloom]

Is it glitched and the blueprint is missing or something?

[rancid tartan]

And the new patch hasn't droped on switch

[storm sparrow]

it's a lengthy explanation but I up top like I said up top - I believe bypassed the entire blueprints and my ability to get them

[winged bloom]

I'm on PC and it seems like there isn't even any storm fish to catch, I've caught over half the fish and have yet to get a storm fish

[winged bloom]

That sucks ass

[wooden onyx]

there is. and i don't think you caught a quarter of fish. my storage container is filled with 60 C fish species and 30A/S and my catalog isnt even half filled, all shadowed

keep fishing, it's not a grind, it's a laidback experience

[storm sparrow]

so yes, in short

WARNING TO OTHERS: if you buy a pre existing multitool with the fishing lure on if while in an expedition run from one of your pre-created saves. and then don't earn it directly on the anomaly, it seems like it bypasses you getting the bait recipes at all. This could I imagine also work backwards if you DON'T get the fishing lure directly with your main save? if the recepies ONLY are given when your character buys the lure tech directly, this could cause problems..

[rancid tartan]

The storm fish is a grind since you need to just wait until you have a couple of minutes to try. Then it's back to waiting

I'm done with everything else, so no point in fishing between storms

(And I want back to my main save)

[storm sparrow]

I theory - if allot of people are about to just copy their multitool after the expedition and not go to buy the lure tech directly - none of them are going to have the bait recipes

so they will need to make the bait recipes - earnable or buyable elsewere by other means (imo)

[wooden onyx]

dang, good theory

[winged bloom]

I'm at 79 out of I think 178, I might counted the max fish wrong but I'm pretty much at half of the fish

[wooden onyx]

or they could fix the bug...

[storm sparrow]

they may not even know about it yet

[meager scroll]

... what

[winged bloom]

If I have to catch as many fish as I have just to get 3 storm fish then it's more of a grind than a laid back experience

[meager scroll]

You get all the bait recipies as reward for a milestone

[lusty slate]

I'm on Switch and completed the whole expedition. It's just RNG.

[wooden onyx]

can relate lol

[storm sparrow]

which one? perhaps I overlooked that but i'm p sure ive collected all the other goal rewards

[wooden onyx]

guess i was just super lucky

[rancid tartan]

Good to know, I'll just carry on carrying on

[meager scroll]

Phase 2 Message in a Bottle

[storm sparrow]

oh god.. ok .. I never clicked it - but I did the goal...

[winged bloom]

Are all the rendezvous points the same for everyone?

[storm sparrow]

ok ok ok.. but WAIT... wait.. hold on.. im thinking

[wooden onyx]

if you want, i can bring you to a extreme radiostorm planet now, guarantee 10 mins you get 5 stormfishes

[storm sparrow]

didn't we not have the expedition to get these recipes a few days before the expedition launched

and thus got them from the anonomy purchase

[rancid tartan]

Just tell me where it is 😅

[meager scroll]

Rewards for Phase 2 Milestone 2 - all the bait blueprints

The Anomaly purchase is handled differently

[winged bloom]

Go to the anomaly and I'll go there and send you some lures

[storm sparrow]

so what if.. you stupidly (like me) never collect the recipes.. THEN finish the expedition.. and THEN copy your multitool.. NOW you didn't get them in you main save because you copy/unlocked the fishing lure tool..

[meager scroll]

There's a "backgroun mission" that checks whether player has the fishing rig blueprint, if yes then rewards us with all the bait

It's for non-expedition saves

[storm sparrow]

It's ok - @meager scroll enlighted me andI have the recipes now - ty for that

[winged bloom]

Gotcha man

[storm sparrow]

im js - is this problem still possible

[wooden onyx]

you cant meet specific people on theanomaly, you need to add one another first

[meager scroll]

If you think it's a bug, then report it

!hg

[unkempt kraken]

You can submit bug reports, suggestions or feedback to Hello Games here: https://hellogames.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

[lusty slate]

ISTR, on non-expedition, the bait unlocks automatically after you buy the rig at the Anomaly

[winged bloom]

How do I get to this storm planet your talking about?

[meager scroll]

But honestly, I think you are going wayyy out of the way of standard progression for devs to consider it necessary to patch

[wooden onyx]

i would have to give you a portal address if you dont want to just add me and warp to me via anomaly

[meager scroll]

If anything, they can roll out a patch like this: if player completed expedition and has no bait recipies, then reward those recipies

[storm sparrow]

anyone in a group can choose to go to the other party members loction when leaving the anomoly via ship - even if they're in a completley different galaxy - this is also how the cabbie system works

[winged bloom]

I can add and wrap, no idea how to do that though, I've never played this with anyone

[wooden onyx]

always a first for evrything, and nms is a great good first!

[rancid tartan]

Oh, I thought it was close to expedition path. I'm on Switch, so no multiplayer... and clean save, so no glyphs

[winged bloom]

So do I just add you through steam or is it like an in game friend system

[storm sparrow]

I'm still nervouse - I think theres something fishy (no pun intened) about how main save only gives you the recipes from the tech purchase

it just seems like a loose end on a weave of strings

[meager scroll]

I dont see the problem, those are only used for fishing

[storm sparrow]

so it all comes down to if the player hasn't bought the lure tech directly, on his main save and copies his pre existing expedtion run's multitool with the tech, does this not give him the recipes?? ****

[meager scroll]

So what's the point of getting them when player does not have the fishing rod beforehand

[storm sparrow]

but I can no longer test this because I do have the recipes

[meager scroll]

Copying a multitool with fishing tech installed DOES NOT give you the knowledge of the recipe

[storm sparrow]

exactly

so in theory - if as done like I said

[meager scroll]

Same way as copying a Starborn Runner did not give people the knowledge how to craft Photonix Core

[storm sparrow]

this could make allot of post expedition players not get the recipes

[shrewd coral]

hey, i've been playing on an expedition save and it randomly converted to normal, is there any way to fix it? i haven't completed all tasks and the tab in esc menu is gone.

[meager scroll]

No I don't think so

If I understand the game files correctly, there is a background mission in place that should reward all players who have the fishing rod somehow all the craftable baits

[shrewd coral]

weird. any idea on what triggers it? i still have the expedition quest and all, just not the tab to view tasks

[meager scroll]

Sorry I was talking to Ahzrukan

Wasnt a response to you

[shrewd coral]

ah no worries

Yea, I play on PC and PS as well, so I'm good, but it would be nice to see other players in the anamoly at least. Bases are shared though, so you can still visit cool places others have built

[winged bloom]

I added you I think

[winged bloom]

Do I just go to the anomaly and the teleporter will tell me which system you're in or something

[rancid tartan]

Frustration over storm fishes aside... I freakin love the fishing update

It gave me a reason to stay on the ground and have a base on a nice planet

[royal slate]

starting ship is called "the celeste", i cant believe ive been clocked by no mans sky

i need your id too

nope, waiting for dec

dang....thanks...woah...

[winged bloom]

You helped me so I help you

[winged bloom]

Do you need an S class reactor as well?

[wooden onyx]

no it's okay hahaha thanks really

[winged bloom]

Yea man, thanks for the planet and the upgrades, gonna be real helpful

[wooden onyx]

storm storm switch bait

[winged bloom]

Yea I have had the magpulse the whole time

[wooden onyx]

lmao...caught anything?

[winged bloom]

I finally got all 3, I appreciate it showing me the planet, anything you need or could help before I get ohta here?

[loud panther]

Storm fishes are missing in all of my 3 save files, Nintendo Switch console player here. Extremely frustrating when you are unable to complete an easy expedition and the worst part is that I keep trying for hours to avoid missing out on the cool bag pack. Any suggestions, any Nintendo player that can tell me they did in fact found Storm Fishes in their files?

[wooden onyx]

i'm fine hahaha, i just didnt get any storm fishes, so i thought you didnt too and had to wait for another storm lol

cya thanks again

[winged bloom]

This is a crazy planet by the way, the storms and the wild life, it's a really cool spot

[gaunt fern]

Here is my seafood stew test, showing about as good as no bait

[gaunt fern]

While I've done 1000 or so spicy chum, here are 200. No floatsum. Lots of rare fish

[wooden onyx]

yeah. the wild life give chewy wires upon being fed. a stack may equal around 800 nanites if you spam-click-consume them haha

[gaunt fern]

Bugged unfortunately

[gaunt fern]

Most definitely bugged

[wooden onyx]

this data is gold

[gaunt fern]

I'm assuming they will fix it next patch or two. Obviously tons of things were meant to be bait. For now id stick with the crafted baits from expedition or using fish as bait

[wooden onyx]

your pictures also show that you're consistent. because sometimes I cast the line and then nothing bites (all the fish silhouettes are not there at all and I can just wait for hours with that line cast) or my rig consumed 2 baits lol

i counted, each picture 100 fishes

[misty widget]

looking for the best way to do this

[rancid tartan]

Fish anywhere without bait

[gaunt fern]

I had fish give up 3 times on my seafood stew and I hadn't had that happen in quite awhile since I started really trying to finish the catalog and use good bait. Sometimes I misclcick too so could lose bait. But pretty well practiced by now.

[lusty slate]

I did. It's RNG.

[misty widget]

ah been doing that but all fish no non fish

[lusty slate]

I hunted for storm fish while fishing for enormous and hot temp fish on one planet

[frail gate]

I finished the expedition, got back to my base and I can't find the aquarium plans. Do I have to go buy them at the anomaly?

[misty widget]

probably

[lusty slate]

That aquarium is just a general QS item, not an expedition one. Look under "create items from Quicksilver" section.

[frail gate]

Um, where would I find that at?

[lusty slate]

Quicksilver vendor. First option

[frail gate]

Thanks Morgeil!

[lusty slate]

At the Anomaly

Also, the aquarium is just a static base item. You can't put your fish in it.

[frail gate]

Sigh

[lusty slate]

There's no way to display caught fish currently

[wooden onyx]

sounds like you're bragging hahhaha

[misty widget]

I wish lol

[wooden onyx]

unless this is your final milestone, go for others first. junk will spam you sooner or later, no need to deliberately search for it

[misty widget]

I suppose

[lusty slate]

All that's required for junk is to fish without bait

[wooden onyx]

wish they could just let us hang them up...like trophies...no need to have animations in an aquarium, which may be more taxing

[misty widget]

or make your own pond and stock it with caught fish

[wooden onyx]

not using bait is not required per se, because i still fish junk with the bionic yellow things

[gaunt fern]

The expensive lures?

[lusty slate]

Oh, hey nathan. I did get that lush storm fish finally. Murky/swamp planets also count as lush.

[gaunt fern]

Yeah, some might be toxic, but most should be that lush/humid/temperate category

[lusty slate]

Looking for a planet for the haunted/exotic fish now

[misty widget]

I am in expedition currently but I might be able to locate planet address once done that is if I can catch the right things in this.. sigh

that is for a haunted / black and white planet

looking through discoveries because bases don't go into expedition with you

[misty widget]

would this work?

[lusty slate]

Hmm, don't know

[misty widget]

well I can't view the planetary address in expedition for some reason

but if I figure out how I will if you think it'll work

[eternal cedar]

How is it most definitely unless its provable

You'd have to test the rng surely

[eternal cedar]

It says blueprint known at the bottom and that you have to research the parent blueprint though

[gaunt fern]

See my posts near this comment.

[gaunt fern]

Spicy chum and seafood stew have similar rarity bonus. Yet stew produces 10% floatsum the other near zero.

It's clear what they intended and it's not working

[ornate wing]

Just needs some tweaking. Wouldn't be surprised if they just attached the value to some other config of the item to generate the items bait statistics.

[gaunt fern]

Yes, numbers are there, just not getting applied for some reason

Way to check is to land and fish 🐠

[misty widget]

yeah that planet isn't within expedition route

[mental geyser]

For those that have done Fins Of Thunder: did you catch them from land or, as I am trying, from the top of your ship in the middle of the lake/ocean? I’m having no luck at all.

[wooden onyx]

does it matter...?

[blazing fossil]

I did both and it still took me 4 hours, so don’t worry. Make sure you’re using storm bait and that it’s not from the processor (because those are broken)

[mental geyser]

That is what I am trying to discover.

[blazing fossil]

I did a bit of both on mine and still got nothing for two hours

[wooden onyx]

hey you were saying earlier about filling the catalog...how do you know which fish you havent yet got and the way to get them? does the catalog show you? or google haha?

[gaunt fern]

Fishing section in your catalog. A few only show outlines and ??? But most give info

[blazing fossil]

The ones that only show ??? Are ones you haven’t caught on any save at all I believe

[gaunt fern]

Any of my saves? People have finished the fishing catalog. I'm 10 or so legendaries left

[blazing fossil]

I don’t know for sure

But from what I’ve heard that’s how ut I’d

[slim raptor]

Is the update for switch ever gonna drop I have spent 8 hours trying to catch the storm fish

[eternal cedar]

you'll just have to wait

the last experimental was a bugfix attempt for the 5.10 core warp issue

[unkempt kraken]

You can submit bug reports, suggestions or feedback to Hello Games here: https://hellogames.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

[fleet meadow]

You mean the pulse-whatever bait we can make in the inventory? Or the various fishy foodstuffs made from the fish themselves?

[indigo falcon]

the magpulse bait is presumed not to be bugged. the baits you can make from foods including fish, those are believed to be broken right now.

so essentially, crafted baits = ok, cooked baits = broken

[fleet meadow]

Ahh, that explains why I didn't feel a difference.

Which sucks, because magpulse bait numbers are so low that I'm not having any better luck there, either.😅

[indigo falcon]

yeah they are low, but better than nothing

there's a frequent storm planet in the r4 system, which might be more useful since you wait less time, ee the 'where do I ...' pin for that

[fleet meadow]

Is it even POSSIBLE to catch storm fish baitless?

[indigo falcon]

yes, I have done so

[fleet meadow]

Nice, good to know.

[indigo falcon]

also you can build a shelter and fish from inside it through an opening into the water, if you want storm protection.

and you still get storm fish this way when a storm is happening

[fleet meadow]

Yeah, I found a base near a carved out seaside cliff that let me do exactly what you're describing, so I may do that if I don't find another base down there already.

[eager swallow]

Hay everyone, is it possible to catch storm fish with just the storm bait, or do you need a storm to find them

Only thing I have left to do is catch the three storm fish

[iron sedge]

Don't need bait

[candid fossil]

U dont need bait but u do need a storm to be happening even if using bait

[eager swallow]

Ok

[wicked zephyr]

Just need 4 more uncommon hot fish

[gaunt fern]

Mag pulse lures are best used during a storm.

[wicked zephyr]

This is gonna be the first expedition I finish

[dark tide]

i ended the expedition and i cant craft the anglers fishing rig ?

[wooden onyx]

go to the quicksilver merchant and press claim expe rewards

[dark tide]

ty

[wooden onyx]

i need your help in return. do you somehow remember what is converted to units and nanites after you pressed end expe?

[wicked zephyr]

@wooden onyx I found some of your rocks

[dark tide]

units , nanites , quicksilver

errr

distance etc

everything leftover is converted into nanites i think

[wooden onyx]

is there amount of fish?

[dark tide]

yea

amount of fish = nanites

[wooden onyx]

because i like grinding nanites

oooooooh

nice

[dark tide]

or units

wait

i dont remember

oh no

[wooden onyx]

nooooooooooo

hahhaahh its okay

im just not sure if i can reload my save after ending the expedition. forgot to try that during expe 14

[dark tide]

dont even know what that mean xD im new

[wooden onyx]

in expe 14 liquidator, you get like 25nanites for each monstrosity you killed (the expedition topic), 230 per relic unearthed, and 2000 nanites per frigate you recruit in the expe lol

just remaining in expe mode and playing around net me an extra 200k nanites at the end of the expe

[wooden onyx]

lol. i name my discoveries the way any 1500s european explorer would

[true arch]

This is my first expedition, and I've completed some phases, but I can't see on the anomaly how to collect the phase rewards on my main.

I went to the terminal, but I can't select them

[wicked zephyr]

Once you end the expedition, you can claim expedition rewards from the quicksilver merchant

[gaunt fern]

New City?

[true arch]

So you have to end it before other saves can collect, OK, thanks.

[lethal mantle]

Finding a hot plantet with water is all of a sudden a huge task lol

[true arch]

Still need to catch the storm fish, but I'm on a planet that storms and I've got a nearby deposit of dioxite so I can replenish that if needed

And I see my questions about that were answered recently, ha

[wicked zephyr]

Rendezvous 2

[wooden onyx]

im making a new city? no, just adding my username to the end of every discovery, like Ladybug Churchill or smtg

[loud panther]

I feel like Im missing something from “Fins of Thunder” does it has to be an specific type of storm for example: “Blizzard Storm”?

[gaunt fern]

All key places are pinned

[wooden onyx]

no just storm

any storm

blizzard storm is included in any storm

heat storm, poison storm, etc.

[keen dome]

I caught the same fish type..all four times. Soon as I could see a storm crystal I put the rod out!

[mighty jacinth]

There's a planet at Rendevous 4 that has frequent storms. Swampy. I struggled with Fins of Thunder until I went there and fished with magpulse lures. Planet is Eotirai (is suggested in the pins)

[dim barn]

The fishing is actualy neat. This is more engaging than I thought it would be

[wanton raft]

Not that impressed with the skiff though. It's extra storage though.

Speaking of that I hear that outside of the expedition, the skiff only starts with 10 slots.

[indigo falcon]

on old saves yes, new saves though will get the full 60 they should, please report the bug to hg when you get there

[muted mortar]

I've completed everything. Before I go back to my main save, are there any rewards I should keep this expedition save around for?

ie I'm just confirming the community research is still not tied to the expedition, like can I go back to my main save and still get those

[dusk stirrup]

You're good. If you want to keep the angler fish, you can only catch it during the expedition @muted mortar

So send it back to your main

[muted mortar]

Awesome I'm taking with me along with all my luggage

Not to mention the Lost Angler's Rig

Does that rig do anything different than the normal one?

[slow jay]

which rendezvous systems have extreme storm planets with fishable water?

[valid roost]

No clue though there is a red system around rendezvous 2

Can't remember what it's called but it's chrome without storms and has colour during the storms

Was able to finish my storm fish mission in abt half an hour on there (after spending literal ages searching for storm fish)

[slow jay]

ye that's my plan

just need the right planet hehe

[upbeat fulcrum]

I tried 80 bait on 3 planets with storms, no success so far ... not even 1 fish ...

[gaunt fern]

Most use the boggy planet pinned. Mentioned above

[gaunt fern]

Mag pulse lures?

[sudden bison]

Keep trying. It took me like three hours to get the fish with magpulse lures during a storm

[upbeat fulcrum]

yes ...

[gaunt fern]

Sounds like bd luck.

[true arch]

are there any extremely stormy planets in this expedition or do they all have the same chance?

Ah, R4, the boggy one, ok

[true arch]

Related, this is my first expedition, is it clear and obvious how to move stuff back to your main account when you end it? Which I assume you do back on the anomaly. I want to make sure to send || The Angler || and a few other things back

[dusk stirrup]

You will be able to craft the anglers rig if you beat the expedition

It gives you the recipe

[muted mortar]

I have the Angler's rig. But does it do anything different than a normal rig? Or is it just a normal rig with a unique name?

[dusk stirrup]

I think it's just a reskinned fishing rig

[cunning crescent]

During the current expedition, display and graphic bugs often appear. Play on PS5

[loud panther]

Is there any difference in between fishing from the coast or deep water fishing?

Dont seem to find any Storm fish in the planet pinned.

[mighty jacinth]

I fished from my skiff, just a little off shore. i don't think it was deep water, but couldn't tell because of the storm

[wraith junco]

Some fishes are more common on shalows other on deeper waters

[eternal cedar]

nah just a different skin

chill expedition though

btw protip i learned yesterday

left on the dpad/h on pc apparently enables and disables hud

[eternal cedar]

yeah it tells you where to go in anomaly once you're done

[clever spade]

does Fresh Sell Fish work if i sell plattered fish or does it have to be individual

[sleek viper]

this storm catching task sucks

[loud panther]

Woah, after over 72 hours of fishing I officially catched my first storm fish, hell yeah!!!

[true arch]

Thanks!

[sleek viper]

thank god, finally done

[plain hound]

is there an easy way to get to rendevouz point 4? or do I have to warp drive

[wraith junco]

Check teleport for player bases.

[gaunt fern]

sell it raw, don't process it.

[hollow junco]

when did liquidators end, I could have sworn it ended on the 14th

[plain hound]

is there a way to see which system a base is in?

[wraith junco]

Usualy bases are named like RDV 4 or something

[cunning crescent]

Juhu expedition successfully completed. Thanks for the valuable tips and help during the mission 🤩🛰

[wraith junco]

Other than that u can only see if its in other galaxy.

[wraith junco]

Good job. Now time for chill fishing and filling the catalouge

[cunning crescent]

Aye aye Sir 🫡😂

[sleek viper]

how do i decode the final mission?

to know what to do

[wraith junco]

Need to do earlier tasks from that phase

[sleek viper]

ok, have done that

can i find this item on the same planet as rendevous 5?

[lapis nexus]

I also seem to not catch any onlystorm fishes! Lacking that and sell 100k worth of fish…should I btw cook all fishes one time before selling? I mean does the learned recipes carry on to my normal save

one legendary fish sells for only 1600 ^^

[gaunt fern]

not sure why you would cook the fish. you need to sell rash fish, not cooked fish. 1600 isa joke I think 😄

[sleek viper]

should i be using a specific bait for scales of fire or fish in a specific spot?

[gaunt fern]

fish on the 5 rdv planet, I don't think any specific bait helps.

[gaunt fern]

mealworms or spicy chum wouldn't hurt

[clever spade]

kk ty

[sleek viper]

gotcha but no point in using bionic lures?

[gaunt fern]

they are difficult to test. presumably they are slightly better than chum

[sleek viper]

aha got it on my last bionic lure

awesome

finished the expedition

[eternal cedar]

magpulse bait

[patent flower]

im pretty much done just need to fish up enough fish for the 500k units worth of fish the one i was most concerned about was the legendary fish but that got done as a 2 for 1 for catching a certain octopus 😉

[spice locust]

When you end the expedition with your main character do you have to go to the console on the nexus before you claim the last challenge rewards to transfer items back or does it give you a chance after to do so before it reverts to your regular save?

Wanted to be sure I end it properly. First time using my main character.

[whole seal]

Can't find a fishable hot world. I know pins show Spot 2 system has one, but I have no save or teleport to there.

er base

[past grail]

this question made no sense but ill still answer what i think youre asking. collect every reward from all your milestones, gather up all the tech you want to keep in your expedition save inventory. then just walk up to the expedition terminal and you should be able to transfer items, then you can click end

[faint mesa]

Doesn't the milestone guides you towards a suitable system?

[past grail]

after you return to your main save you can go back to the terminal and collect those beautiful jetpack upgrades n wtv else u bring home

[whole seal]

Just says - not this system, try another

[faint mesa]

Oh wow. I thought it was more... precise than that.
Are you near the expedition path? I recall the rendezvous systems not being that distant from each other.

Other than that, yep, I'm not sure how to specifically find a scorched world with water...

[spice locust]

Gotcha. I've only done new characters before and it auto reverts to a normal save. I was just making sure it doesn't do that with your main character and just lose everything if you don't go to the terminal first. But I gotcha, thanks!

[clever spade]

It is impossible to catch 3 day fish

do i NEED bait or can i just use none

Bc idk how to get solar mirrors

[faint mesa]

You don't need bait for anything, but they certainly help

(Crafting solar mirrors shouldn't be difficult though)

[gaunt fern]

Mealworms good bait to use. If you can't make solar mirrors

[clever spade]

How do i craft them

it doesnt show in my crafting area

Bc i need da dangling orbs

[spice locust]

do nanites transfer back with you to your regular save on main characters?

[clever spade]

Also should i sell Nipnip buds or keep

Whys the demand so high

[cold tulip]

They are only used for selling

[cold tulip]

Cus they illegal

[cold tulip]

Back to the save you started the exp with

[clever spade]

oh

[true arch]

Is there any way to find lightning storm extreme weather events?

Could just be my imagination that I got 2/3 storm fish when by storm crystals and 0 more in 3-4 more storms not by crystals 😦

[whole seal]

Says my suit does not have skiff interface --- where did it go? Want to summons skiff (again, have many times).

[gaunt fern]

Extreme planets are identified by red weather text

[true arch]

Yeah, and I'm on the one in the pins. But only the first storm had lightning and I dunno if it really matters or it's just a feeling that it matters for the RNG for storm fish

[whole seal]

Is the Skiff exosuit interface some item in the inventory?

How did I lose it?

I guess I did not collect my skiff before leaving a world?

Is that needed, unlike all other exocraft?

[true arch]

Did you logout/in again?

I've not lost mine and I just get up and fly off

[gaunt fern]

Difficult to test

[true arch]

OK, psychological. I got the 3rd one, finally, no lightning and I was even in a glitchy shelter house

Last thing I needed too, short break, then post storm go release the fish for more nannites, and close this one out

[dusk stirrup]

It's a tech upgrade for your exosuit

Maybe you accidentally uninstalled it

The recipe for it is in the anomaly

[whole seal]

I will wait till the Exp is over - I don't need it.

But - yea - I guess I can't make another until then

[dusk stirrup]

It's not tied to completing the expedition

You just go unlock it at the anomaly and install it in your exosuit

[lilac crane]

do the records of caught fish carry over to the main save once you end?

[dusk stirrup]

It's a crafting recipe

[dusk stirrup]

No

[lilac crane]

ok thank you

[lusty slate]

Well, kind of. What you caught shows up in the Wonders catalog greyed out

[lilac crane]

ah ok

[dusk stirrup]

You don't make multiple skiffs. You have one skiff that can be summoned whenever you want to summon it.

[tight bough]

Anyone want to start with me?

[fading ice]

Hi there. I can't summon the exo skiff in VR.

[fervent heron]

Hello all. I am almost done with the last expedition. Problem: I am still missing 1 fish you can find only during storm. I went to different planets but it takes an eternity before having a good long storm. Would you have any tip/suggestion to choose the right one? I went to rendez-vous 1, 2, 3 and 4 but so far, I am having issue to get storm every 5 minutes 😄

[alpine topaz]

I would go to a station and teleport to another person's base

There is a base I found with the name storm smth

And it was specifically for your case with lots of storms

[fervent heron]

Oh my, I should have thought about that. Obvious, but I did not check. Thanks @alpine topaz

[gaunt fern]

there is a pin in this channel about a stormy boggy/swampy planet in one of the rdv systems. starts with an E. should make quick work of it

[dusk stirrup]

go to an extreme weather panet

and make magpull lures

[fervent heron]

Eotirai planet, probably, will have a look. Thanks

[fervent heron]

I already have 20 and only 1 fish is missing, I hope that's enough =]

[dusk stirrup]

yeah the storm fishing is easily the most annoying milestone

extreme weather planets get a lot of storms

it took me a couple hours to find one

[true arch]

Check station terminals, I bought out a bunch of the craftable parts, and then talked with NPC pilots to buy more tritium

[slow jay]

\o/ expedition complete! was a pain at first but i'd forgotten to check the options and to fully utilize the discord for pins and such

[wide jackal]

oh nooooo, i'm naked and afraid in the new expedition 😭

(isn't it so fun to get the initial cutscene when you start?)

[opal glade]

it is but the novelty wears off soon after you have to farm for resources again to fix your ship

[low light]

Anyone know what system I can do the hot planet milestone?

[faint mesa]

Rendezvous 2 system, Odeg planet.

[low light]

Thanks, knew it was somewhere early but the system got away from me

[wide jackal]

eh, after that it gets fun tho

[clever spade]

Can i find daylight Fishes on any planet

or only certain ones

[low light]

Any planet with daylight, I'd imagine

[clever spade]

kk thx it just says look at the catalogue n yada yada yada

[opal glade]

fyi : diural fish is daylight fish

so you'll get a mix of daytime fish and "normal" fish from that type of environment

don't ask me why they made that distinction, it's kinda stupid

[low light]

Probably because normal can also show up at night

[dusk stirrup]

realism

dont want to seem unrealistic when you are shooting lures out of your gun/laser/fishing rod/grenade launcher

[opal glade]

all fish sleep so technically there should only be a distinction of night time fish and everything else

day time fish distinction makes it seem like all the fish that are "not daytime fish" are awake all the time

which is super stupid

[dusk stirrup]

what?

daytime fish sleep at night

nighttime fish sleep during the day

[opal glade]

what about the fish that are planet based

[dusk stirrup]

this is not a black and white situation so sometimes you find fish that stay up late or sleep in

[low light]

Like I said, there are three categories, day, night, and both (normal)

[opal glade]

"hot temperature fish" are not night time or day time

[dusk stirrup]

no, that would be biome specific

[low light]

Then each biome has its categories

[opal glade]

then they should specify it all the way or not bother making the distinction

its just confusing instead

[dusk stirrup]

maybe you just need to learn more about fishing

[opal glade]

0.0 how does learning more about fishing make classification of fish less confusing?

the fishing minigame is easy to understand

its not hard

its the biologist in me who is annoyed cuz it's not clear what kind of fish they are

[dusk stirrup]

well it is well known that there are specific times of day or night that are best for certain species of fish

aka their active feeding times

and it is also well known that certain climate types support different fish

[low light]

I just read the description of the fish

Tells you what category it is

[gaunt fern]

result of 200 spicy chum

[dusk stirrup]

thats a lot of giant shrimps

[gaunt fern]

they are good bait too. going to collect 100 and do a survey of results

[gaunt fern]

I showed yesterday that seafood stew got very bad results comparitively. we can test other things too. lots of people under the impression that nutrient foods work (cuz they read the text on the screen, surprise) but it doesn't 😢

[clever spade]

how do i drive an exoskiffer? is it possible?

[dusk stirrup]

What do they refine to? There's one fish that refines into a recipe that attracts storm fish and I feel like farming those could be very beneficial

[gaunt fern]

right, they don't work though. bug. I tested Seafood Stew which is nutrient processor refined fish. and they give you a lot more low end stuff. The bottom line attraction thing (day/night/storm) is much harder to verify, but if the rarity part doesn't work hard to believe that part works.

[dusk stirrup]

Sadge

[gaunt fern]

I presume they will fix it in a patch or two

[dusk stirrup]

The storm fish are almost rarer than the normal s class fish

Just because you only get to fish for them for so little time

[gaunt fern]

yeah, its a very ahrd thing to test, I recommend mag lures for them. but spicy chum would be my second go to for them

[storm sparrow]

funny you say that..

[unkempt kraken]

@storm sparrow

No gifs in this channel please

[storm sparrow]

thats lame

literally made my own gif just for that

[native talon]

Get a new multitool

[storm sparrow]

but having it on that multitool would have already unlocked it for you?

even if you get a new one

[native talon]

…

Idk anymore, I just spent the last 10 minutes reading the last 30 mins of chat

[storm sparrow]

the only way this doesn't happen is if you just can't create tech part until you hve bought it even though you could have it on a pre existing multi tool...

but if you CANT buy it agian because it thinks you unlocked it.. because you had it on the multi tool you bought...

then you wouldn't be able to get the bait recipes

[native talon]

Why did u copy ur multitool from expedition though?

[storm sparrow]

I didn't this time but did in a past expedition because after going into the expedition with my main, playing it and getting new stuff for said mult tool.. when I was done.. and back to my main I could basically buy the upgraded version I had built while playing

instead of finding those exact tech parts all over agian..

[native talon]

Idk, I’m going to bed

[storm sparrow]

anyway - the gif I could't send showed me getting my first S class fish

I got my first S class before finding a single storm fish

[gaunt fern]

sure seems like extreme storms are better. but so hard to test

[eternal cedar]

If you think it's bugged report it

[gaunt fern]

yeah, the form is long, I will tomorrow

[dim barn]

Anyone have an issue where the fish it SAYS I caught, doesnt match the one I actually get?

[gaunt fern]

people say that. but it always turns out to be somewhere else in their inventory or something

alt tabbing or doing stuff while fishing will delay results

[dim barn]

might be that, then

[eternal cedar]

Thought that was what all storms are classified as

[dim barn]

Nope, im defo getting different fish than its saying

Just cleared inventory

and its the wrong one, might record a bit and error report later

[heavy sapphire]

I found / find the skif utterly useless in storms and wind. Waves just knock it around too much and I end up falling off,

Managed to get the iron vulture (hauler) and found that fishing on top of it is better, never got knocked off of it regardless of waves or storms. Recommend that for deep sea fishing.

[gaunt fern]

4 storm fish in 60 casts using spicy chum on this extreme planet.

[eternal cedar]

It's pretty much just a floating storage box

It should

[gaunt fern]

I just fish on my ship

[heavy sapphire]

Back on the main save there's only 10 inventory on it. It's not even good for that.

[eternal cedar]

1. have the correct storage number
2. have manual movement
3. be more stable because the point of it is fishing in deeper waters

4. gimme an inbuilt (skiff) or portable (exosuit) nutrient processor

[clever spade]

how do i make a base under water

[heavy sapphire]

Same, but my main ship is an exotic, that's almost impossible to do.

[gaunt fern]

swim down and make it

[clever spade]

how do i make it tho

[gaunt fern]

base computer. Z on PC

[clever spade]

Oh i see now

it was bugged before

[indigo falcon]

we think that old saves havig only 10 slots of cold storage in the skiff is a bug, please report it to hg

just in the floor of one

[clever spade]

i think my game is bugged

[swift flume]

it doesnt like to place stuff on things your close to

[clever spade]

gotcha

also how do i get living pearl?

[indigo falcon]

go find an armoured clam in the water, swim up to it, see the interaction prompt (ignore the boltcaster thingie), interact and take the pearl, swim off.

the armoured clam icon in the hud is yellow in a sort of clam shape

[balmy pagoda]

I think from the oyster clams

[eternal cedar]

The moon

[eternal cedar]

Open your menu and go to catalogue, press materials and go to the section named like natural resources or whatever it's called

If it's listed there it'll let you pin it and use your target sweep scanner to find some.

[lusty slate]

...or just select the milestone.

Which will also put them in the target sweep.

[gaunt fern]

do they know about the bait bug?

[clever spade]

ty

[indigo falcon]

doesn't matter if they do. the more people that report their experience with cooked bait vs crafted bait with specific examples, the more it will raise the profile of the bug and show how widespread it is, for the devs

if you can say "I tested with x many of these and Y many of those and the results were..." that's great so please do it

[gaunt fern]

I got screenshots, just too lazy to make xls

[lusty slate]

Raw fish seems to work tho. Fished with a greenscale bloater on main for a bit. 24% size chance increase. I definitely caught more colossals.

[gaunt fern]

yah, raw fish works. I'm collecting 100 collasal shrimp to test

[lusty slate]

I hit 50 bloaters and just said "why not".

[indigo falcon]

great, please report all that info in your bug reports

[gaunt fern]

I'm fairly certain, if a bait is a bait... you can't get floatsum

[lusty slate]

Can also confirm.

[gaunt fern]

which to me, means some flag is missing on the stuff not acting as a bait that would probably fix it

[lusty slate]

Crafted bait absolutely blocks the trash items

[gaunt fern]

does nanotubes or chromatic metal?

[lusty slate]

Haven't tried those

[gaunt fern]

they are low % so not sure how the mechanic works. but still trying to finish catalog

I suppose 100 nanotubes would be easy to test

[lusty slate]

I'm also starting to wonder if storm fish chances are higher in extreme storms versus regular.

[gaunt fern]

I believe so.. but it soooo hard to test

[gaunt fern]

5 in 122 casts using spicy chum.

[dusk stirrup]

that is a bug for saves older than 5.10 and should be fixed soon
