nms-expedition

[slow jay]

alternatively does anyone know of surrounding systems around the inhabited rendezvous that may have exotic worlds (i already scanned Light planet), just asking before i go blind hunting lmao

i only have the first 3 stationed systems so

[indigo falcon]

hm I don't know, because I did the expedition route only, we're not even given a warp drive....

[slow jay]

(imported ship hehe)

[stone lotus]

You can get a warp drive from npc ships or previous expedition ships

[indigo falcon]

another helper suggests you could try disabling internet and see about the portal again

[stone lotus]

Or your own ship from the anomaly

[indigo falcon]

yes but there's no need to, if things all go well anyways.

[slow jay]

im only on switch and it constantly says online is disabled, i only get bases and comm balls :)

[stone lotus]

I use it to duplicate top tier x class upgrades lmao

[indigo falcon]

that's different than fully offline I think

it's worth a try

[slow jay]

hm. i'll give it a shot

[ashen shore]

Perfect thankyou ^^

[indigo falcon]

save-exit-reload after disabling too

[tulip spire]

Are corrupted quadrupeds the ones that look like sentinel doggies?

[ocean gorge]

Does anyone remember offhand how many nanites each to copy a ship or MT over?🙏

[indigo falcon]

2.8k for S ship and 2.2k for S mt... I think

[ocean gorge]

Tysm

[indigo falcon]

the big ones, not the small cute ones

[shy dagger]

any planet to fish the new fishes for the milestone?

[indigo falcon]

•anomalous fish: Tuwanl Akkan (REDACTED type, Breach 3 system Gaxaral) OR
Tarum 95/E1 (Frozen anomaly, Breach 3 system Gaxaral) (and others)
(info is in the pins)

[tulip spire]

Oh well, where can i find them?

[indigo falcon]

sometimes they guard dissonance resonators (teh tall things that drop echo lcators)....

otherwise you are stuck fighting several waves, meh

[tulip spire]

Thank you

[blissful onyx]

Is there a way to get jump boots during expedition? Or a exocraft

Mobility is a issue

[indigo falcon]

rocket boots are a milestone reward

[blissful onyx]

Ty

[indigo falcon]

the minoaur bp (I think?) is another...

[grave cape]

Any tips for finding storm crystals? I know you can only collect them in a storm but they’re not showing on the scanner. Tried a few locations. Only been playing a few weeks.

[blissful onyx]

that will help alot then

[slow jay]

gfdit i deleted the connected network since thats the only way to fully disconnect, reloaded my save and still getting hit with the massive lag as if the comm balls are still there, maybe they are and there's so many it's taking forever to even see them while i can't move

[blissful onyx]

thank

[tulip spire]

Try to find planets with "extreme storm"

[blissful onyx]

They don't show on scan until the storm begins

And usually they will be everywhere,, try a different planet

You should be able to see them from a far distance through the storm, lightning fx

that too

harsher the planet more crystals

I think

[indigo falcon]

the fact of them being there is probably cached in your save somehow. but I don't know about clearing that safely

[slow jay]

guess im SOL

[indigo falcon]

would you be willing to ask in -help? there might be more eyeballs on it there, since this isn't strictly an expedition issue

you can tell 'em I sent you, if they ask

[slow jay]

nah i think ima just give up on this expd til they rerun it, i just wanted the cute UFO

[indigo falcon]

aww heck. understandable though

I know some switch players have gotten through, I wonder if there's something they tuned or...

[shy dagger]

any required bait for the anomalous fishes?

[indigo falcon]

nope!

[slow jay]

maybe its just cause im using charts to find monoliths for portals which everyone else has probably done hence putting balls around every one

[indigo falcon]

well thre's only one portal on each planet though

[remote thunder]

maybe try this:

How to Reset Cache on Nintendo Switch

In this article, you'll learn how to clear the cache (delete saved IDs, passwords, cookies, history and other cached website data) for each user on a Nintendo Switch console.

Select System Settings from the HOME Menu.Scroll down and select System.Scroll down again and select Formatting Options.Select Clear Cache.Select the user that you wish to clear cached data for, then select Reset to confirm.
    This will delete saved IDs, passwords, cookies, history and other cached website data. It will not affect the user's downloaded games or game save data.

[sleek talon]

can i not use a new blood potion at an old portal?

[grave cape]

Thanks. I’ll try another planet

[sleek talon]

do I need to find a new portal each time?

[slow jay]

yea i looked at the cache option which is why i figured i should just give up

[indigo falcon]

the expected way is to use a portal in each breach system to go to the next one

[sleek talon]

kk i'll build a new silver one then

[indigo falcon]

pin the milestone, do the steps as it prompts you, anything else can mix the game up

this process is very finnicky for whatever reason

[sleek talon]

well I've just crashed the game trying it :/

[slow jay]

the UFO is just a regular S class explorer right? so no fomo there

[indigo falcon]

it's all about the looks, but really most all of this game is about the looks 🙂

[ocean gorge]

2800 for my exotic ship, but it was considerably less for my MT; maybe it relates to the tier and class, idk🤷‍♀️

I had plenty of nanites from selling off the tech modules that otherwise would’ve been redundant, and some modules I’d brought into the save, so I didn’t have to do a lot of refining runaway mould😅

[strong saffron]

@slow jay do the missions, not a hard or a long expedition

[indigo falcon]

problem is lag making it unplayable.

[slow jay]

the problem is i didnt make a base in the uncharted system im trying to get back to but i cant use any portals i find cause all the comm balls literally paralyze my game

[indigo falcon]

I need to get off or at least go into lurk mode, need to get dinner if nothing else. others will hopefully keep an eye on questions

[ocean gorge]

Expedition so far has given me a migraine
The skybox motion is just🤮 (way too fast at times)

[strong saffron]

@slow jay Man, u dont have to go back, just complete the missions. Read the pin notes

[remote thunder]

goto anomaly, teleport to a featured base - if you're trying to do a breach milestone, you could make use of the out of range state. if first featured base doesn't trigger out of range, resummon anomaly and try again

[indigo falcon]

the lag means the player can't even interact or move at portals. it's not a matter of pin notes and such. too many comm balls for the switch

[strong saffron]

And u can go back enter the anomaly and search for player bases in the breach u want to go to

[remote thunder]

unfortunately, since they're on switch, at best they'd see featured bases, which are nowhere near exp16

[ocean gorge]

Honestly it got to where I often couldn’t land on worlds where there were so many bases and comm balls on old gen consoles (PS4, Xbox One) because of this, often I’d had to reload just to be able to play, sometimes many times. So it’s not just switch that can run into issues

[remote thunder]

@slow jay how to trigger out of range state, <#bot-spam message> (in our current situation, forget warping/black holes method ofc), also see embedded image

[remote thunder]

gentle reminder that this is controlled by how much charge you've got on anomaly suppressor

[ocean gorge]

The first place I spawned (I started from an existing save) I was in the water, granted only 5u deep but my ship was on a somewhat isolated piece of land with only so much dihydrogen. I had to swim back away from it to get more dihydrogen, which kind of sucked. And keep making a bunch of elixirs just to get back to it. Wasn’t a fun experience for me at all🫤

[hushed oasis]

my 2nd start was like that... so I cheated and edited in some mats

[hushed oasis]

my 4th stgart was similar, so I stayed and gathered mats before crossing water

[ocean gorge]

Now that I’ve made it to first breach and anomaly, I have plenty of main resource items I stashed from my main save. But that initial start was disorienting. I thought this was going to be a cool “look at the ethereal creatures” kind of expedition, not be “harassed constantly” kind of thing🤨

[hushed oasis]

I love this expedition, way better challenges

[stray needle]

anyone got a base for the fishing quest

[hushed oasis]

I've seen bases that say stuff about fishing

[finite scaffold]

I really enjoyed the constant pressure of the ethereal creatures, keep giving them purple juice and they chill out

I had to change my playstyle a little, but it made it more fun

And had more than a fair share of leaving the atmosphere because I didnt have enough dihydrogen or the ethereal mats to craft more potions

Not sure if it was intended that the bar refilled when leaving the planet, but I used it a lot

[remote thunder]

pretty much any megaexotic with water (!faq-biomes in #bot-spam , red/green/blue biome) will work:

•anomalous fish: Tuwanl Akkan (REDACTED type, Breach 3 system Gaxaral) OR Tarum 95/E1 (Frozen anomaly, Breach 3 system Gaxaral) (and others)

[finite scaffold]

Some dude had crafted a fishing base on the water that I found when I started the fishing quest, was really well built and had stairs going into the water that was completely inside the base. Was really nice, wish I had taken a pic of it

[sullen meteor]

I give up, trying to find underground fauna on a planet with water in an uncharted system is just about impossible lol

[remote thunder]

i understand

[sullen meteor]

there are no POIs to expose cave floor and the caves that exist are tiny

[remote thunder]

check this out <#nms-fauna message>

i'll leave the decision up to you

[sullen meteor]

I don't understand what you're trying to tell me

[remote thunder]

did you watch the video?

[sullen meteor]

I don't see a video, I see a picture of a bug

[remote thunder]

click the same link again

[sullen meteor]

that's not what I see when I click that link

[remote thunder]

discord

whatever

goto #nms-fauna , check the pins.

[remote thunder]

clicking it a 2nd time normally fixes it and leads to where you wre supposed to be led to.

if not a 2nd, then a 3rd

anyways

[sullen meteor]

I had gunter blocked that's why

[stray needle]

The annoying part is that I find a base that looks like it's in a different system but it's in the same system

[remote thunder]

not sure if there's a question along with that

[sullen meteor]

so... ground you build with the terrain manipulator turns into cave floor?

[stray needle]

is there a way to tell what system the base is in?

[remote thunder]

when using cave terrain, after save+reload

[sullen meteor]

wdym "when using cave terrain"?

do I have to do it in a specific place, or is that something you can choose with the terrain manipulator?

[remote thunder]

the texture you use to create terrain

[remote thunder]

well, where are you seeing this base at

[stray needle]

I'm scrolling through the teleport menu from a space station teleporter

[remote thunder]

that means that you can only teleport to bases uploaded in that system; save+reload to ensure that ghost bases aren't showing up

[stray needle]

so the space anomaly would let me tp to other systems?

[sullen meteor]

is there anything specific about the way the person who made the video did that? why the flattening etc?

[remote thunder]

the anomaly teleporter would let you teleport to featured bases, regardless of where they were uploaded in; and to bases of players in the same anomaly network instance as you

[sullen meteor]

I reloaded and got what looks like cave floor, there's hazardous cave flora growing on it, but no fauna

[remote thunder]

the flattening makes the "crevasses"/cut offs that cause the spawns

and well, just easy to walk on

[frosty zodiac]

how do i use the surge battry on the signal booster theres no option and yes i have the right item?

[remote thunder]

no, can't use surge batteries; you'll want to use alien charts, exchanged for nav data @ space station cartographer

[frosty zodiac]

lol

devs why you ask me to do something i cant do

[lusty slate]

I have no idea why they even gave us those.

[remote thunder]

•For the ancient ruins milestone, you need the ruins that do NOT have treasures to dig up (but not monoliths)
Buy 3 maps, spam them all open, then go to the markers for "Plaque" and "Ancient Ruin", interact at each, done.

[fading bison]

I unlocked the jetpack and it isn't in the customization menu???

[sullen meteor]

it worked AAAAAAAAAAA

[remote thunder]

mandibles isn't a jetpack, it's a alt helmet

[sullen meteor]

I am so upset that I did not know that this was a thing until now

you can just make caves

[lusty slate]

FYI: also bugged

[fading bison]

OHHHHHHH IT SAYS JETPACK MY BAD THANK YOU BK201 YOURE A KING AMONG MEN

[remote thunder]

fixed on steam experimental btw

[lusty slate]

Nice! Have they fixed the egg too? Or still working on it?

[remote thunder]

yes, egg should also be fixed

[frozen laurel]

What does it take to Map a System during an Expedition?

[frosty zodiac]

ok how do i do the face of glass part?

[remote thunder]

discover a system

[frozen laurel]

Ah, so not one that it sends you to.

[remote thunder]

no, one that basically has been undiscovered yet; naturally, all exp systems have been discovered already

[remote thunder]

did you complete all milestones leading up to it? when you select it, and exit pause, what does the mission hint lower right of the screen tell you to do? remember that you can force cycle hints by pressing H or dpad left (spam if necessary)

[frozen laurel]

Got it. I tried visiting all the planets, saving at the white markers. Scanning all the animals on all the planets. All the ways I could think of to fully map a system.

[remote thunder]

nah, "system mapped" is just the system discovery itself. you could find a portal in exp16, dial some random address, and it'll probably lead to somewhere undiscovered

everything is claimed

you need to claim it here

cursor - yeah ^

lower right

right of "CURSED"

the expedition badge

[frozen laurel]

What merchant?

[remote thunder]

qs shop assuming

[frozen laurel]

Oh, I didn't realize that was an option during the expedition, thought it was only for after.

[barren bolt]

Hi, i am trying to finish the expedition. I am in the third system trying to find an infested planet. The problem is I can't seem to find the planet. The planet Wisbor is there in my Discovery but I cannot seem to find it in space. I am circling for 2 hours already. Any ideas?

[frozen laurel]

Fly in First Person and use the HUD.

[remote thunder]

see <#nms-expedition message> - use first person ship camera - it's the furthest one out

[barren bolt]

Found it thx

[frosty zodiac]

i had to reject it for ever to finsih it

lol

but i still have the ship

[silver vessel]

killing the corrupt quads is a pain in the ass

[remote thunder]

why? not enough nanites?

[frosty zodiac]

no i already got it at the npc

didnt do it at the terminal

so it got confused

[remote thunder]

if you haven't yet, strongly recommend unlocking and installing paralysis mortar on your multitool: it's a secondary attachment so it can be equipped side by side a primary weapon e.g. boltcaster, pulse spitter. shoot para mortar at enemies, they get stunned (heals stop too)

[remote thunder]

in expedition, you'd have claimed it simply from the expedition badge. equipped it if you want, then go finish. once back in primary, you'd have 2 options: either claim it from qs shop/claim expedition rewards dialog option, or copy it from the expedition terminus (because you had it equipped in expedition)

[marble flare]

what does it mean anomolous fishes in anomolous worlds?

[frozen laurel]

Some planets will have anomolous fish. Details are pinned.

No bait required. Best to fish from inside a shelter to avoid the storms.

[marble flare]

•anomalous fish: Tuwanl Akkan (REDACTED type, Breach 3 system Gaxaral) OR
Tarum 95/E1 (Frozen anomaly, Breach 3 system Gaxaral) (and others)

[royal tundra]

Man I’m having problems finding corrupted quads…

[vast yoke]

you are in the right planet?

[royal tundra]

Yeah but “spiders” are rare…

Mostly just corrupt drones

[stray needle]

will the egg save to my primary save?

[vast yoke]

They appear at level 2 of wanted. At least, it always appeared to me.
If you find those extractors (forgot the name) I think it will be easier

[blazing fossil]

#nms-expedition message

[feral sequoia]

Do I need these bones it made me collect or can I see them

[royal tundra]

Yeah not finding them there.

[blazing fossil]

Sell

[royal tundra]

Guess I’ll just have to pick fights

[remote thunder]

definitely look for resonators as well

[feral sequoia]

thanks. easiest mil credits ever

[remote thunder]

this was right after coming out of the portal basically

remember to use visor to assist you

[vast yoke]

Yeah, that was I called extractors lol. I have no idea what this is.

[remote thunder]

dissonance resonators are related to harmonic camps/sentinel gear

[vast yoke]

I did a whole base around one with a high ground, lol

[vast yoke]

Ok, but what they are trying to do there? (the sentinels)

[remote thunder]

in the lore, harvest dissonance energy from the planet

[vast yoke]

ah ok

[feral sequoia]

Aren't all dissonant planets supposed to have sentinel ships?

[remote thunder]

not all; for example, and the simplest case: dissonant planets in uncharted systems (no race, no buildings - no monoliths either)

[feral sequoia]

oh, I was wondering why my echo locator wasn't working

[remote thunder]

a suitable dissonant system is a gek/korvax/vykeen dissonant system, where there's at least 1 dissonant planet that's not dead, weird or infested

dead (rusted metal), weird (gold), and infested (various synonyms, possible to see on the various "base" biomes)

[feral sequoia]

I just came out of the expedition portal on a dissonant planet and figured I'd nab a sentinel ship to help me along my way

guess not

[remote thunder]

breach 3 is uncharted

(not gek, korvax, vykeen)

(no space station)

@feral sequoia note that there's multiple milestones in the expedition that can be done here

[marble flare]

quick question, will i be able to continue my expedition save when the expedition ends?

[feral sequoia]

I mean i figured. I haven’t needed to leave a breach system yet

[compact fractal]

im on phase 5 how do i know which one is exotic planet?

[feral sequoia]

I don’t think I’ve even put a hyperdrive on my ship

[compact fractal]

its for genetic glitch quest

[remote thunder]

there's a moon with gold on resource list in breach 5

[remote thunder]

no, make sure to complete it before expedition ends server side

[compact fractal]

is gold = exotic?

[remote thunder]

that's the thing with exp16: we won't need a hyperdrive, it's portal themed

[remote thunder]

correct: if a planet/moon has gold on resource list, like Dupraie T47, then it will have "exotic" fauna, which counts for this milestone (genetic glitch)

[mint glacier]

btw, is the bugged which makes corrupted sentinel wave number 3 to never end after the spider quad has been killed a well-known problem in the expedition?

I killed the quad, and every time I tried to hide underground or kill all the sentinels, there always spawned one extra sentinel, and the counter for active sentinels was stuck at 0 but couldn't progress...

[remote thunder]

that does sound like it bugged somehow; did you have multiplayer enabled? i also never dig holes to get away from them i mostly rely on cloaking device

i'd just suggest to disable mp if you have it enabled, save+reload from main menu, then retry

[mint glacier]

multiplayer was off. I completed the rest of the expedition without doing the 8 spider quad kills milestone or the hypnotic eye-gathering milestone (I just didn't bother to do the latter because I don't care about the egg or the ship (yet))

[vivid stream]

i'm surprised that while 2023 got total of 3 expeditions, this year got 5 expeditions

iirc: this year got Omega, Adrift, Liquidators, Aquarius and Cursed

Last year, as i mentioned before, were Utopia, Singularity and Voyagers

now i completed total of 11 expeditions in a row since 2022 starting Blighted

[exotic mica]

Um I just jumped into the second portal and I think I'm stuck in an endless load

[wanton raft]

I'm thinking they may double 2023 with 6 by years end.

They don't need a holiday break ... why not 7?

Nah, they'll do exp reruns at the end of the year.

[ashen shore]

When it says to stare at the night sky for a minute is that by looking straight up or with a visor? Because it ain't popping for me

[cerulean olive]

at night, yes

just look up at the nightsky and the counter will start

[vivid stream]

2022 got 4, yet didn't managed to complete exobiology

[ashen shore]

I get no counter and this is thee thrid go and nothing

[cerulean olive]

are you doing this at night time?

and do you have the milestone active?

[ashen shore]

I am and I just seet it as active. But none of the other milestones have had to be active so

[fringe lily]

What’s the easiest way to get nanites guys?

[cerulean olive]

I simply sat down on my ship, contemplate emote and aimed my cross hair to the stars. counter starts and 60 secs later you're done.

[ashen shore]

I killed sentinels for the glass and sold the mods you get from them

[cerulean olive]

Sell tech you don't need, refine Pugneum/slimes/tainted metal to nanites

[fringe lily]

Only offering 16 nanites per bit of tech I have

& refine the three of them together?

[cerulean olive]

no, each seperate

[ashen shore]

OH THAT'S BULLSHIT! It went to day at 59 seconds! I stared up from day to night and a second from completiong it went to day

[fringe lily]

Thank you

[fringe lily]

Thank you

[cerulean olive]

lol, had that too on the 3rd run 😄

[remote thunder]

also remember that radiant shards (breach 3 planet), inverted mirrors, larval cores and hadal cores (from derelict freighter mission crates, for example), fleshy rope and vile spawn that drop from baby worms all refine to nanites.

[fringe lily]

Didn’t know that 😅

[remote thunder]

also - Leftover_Pizza was more referring to stuff that you get for example from milestone rewards: e.g. perhaps you're not using pulse spitter, so you have no need for pulse spitter upgrades right? well, take a look at phase 3 milestone 2: it rewards as well a s-class pulse spitter upgrade. so that one, when sold, would be worth a lot more than 16 nanites, a few hundred nanites.

or as an even better example, considering the image above, the s-class pulse engine upgrades from phase 2 milestone 1

maybe keep 1, sell the other kind of deal

[cerulean olive]

yup. stored tech gets you much less. new not previous installed tech gets more nanites.

[pine topaz]

Well in my ignorant ways I missed out on the Sentinel Ship when I left the Expedition. Is there a way to correct that mistake?

[remote thunder]

have you finished and been reloaded into primary?

do you know what system you got it from?

[pine topaz]

Yep

I do not recall

[shy dagger]

i can't manage to kill quadrupeds. the weapons and mods the expedition gives you don't help enough.

[pine topaz]

Hexilli or something to that effect?

[shy dagger]

i have seen someone write about using your ship, but that makes the enemies disappear, and spawns interceptor

[cerulean olive]

That's the moment you land your ship, hop out and reload save.

[remote thunder]

that's breach 5 - check this post <#nms-expedition message>

[pine topaz]

Thank you

Use the Bot dude. Makes it cake

[remote thunder]

i bought pulse spitter upgrade modules from starter station, then unlocked and installed paralysis mortar from anomaly MT research npc. trivialized large spider confrontations.

[pine topaz]

Shoot, kill your target, jump away

[remote thunder]

this is the setup i used

remember to supercharge your core weapon tech

[shy dagger]

wouldn't that make everything disappear

[remote thunder]

one strat you can adopt is to first mine some rock nearby so that floaters go away and investigate, melee jetpack to spider, keep spider stunned, rain bullets on it

[pine topaz]

The Minatour makes it easy though…not to discount his/her advice

[remote thunder]

i strongly recommend not using boltcaster for corrupted sentinels

[shy dagger]

yeah, my low fps and low damage weapons can't really make that happen

[remote thunder]

if you're going to use boltcaster, then you kinda need sentinel modules

[fringe lily]

It won’t let me collect the ship, says inventory full?

[remote thunder]

exit current ship first

[shy dagger]

how do you get it tho?

[cerulean olive]

Nope. Only your 'wanted' level will disappear and a new quad will spawn at reload too. So, it's rinse and repeat at one and the same quad. This is the cheesy way and works best with a ship that can hover.

[remote thunder]

anomaly, construct research station, there's a milestone that rewards x30 salvaged data

[shy dagger]

i almost got oneshot by it tho

[cerulean olive]

can you claim a ship that can hover at the anomaly? Starborn Runner, Iron Vulture or copy a sentinel ship?

[remote thunder]

post a screenshot of your multitool.

i did it with <#nms-expedition message>, really not much; and they still couldn't "touch me"

[cerulean olive]

Fly low above the ground, shoot the quad from a distance, land your ship, hop out to create a save, reload save, rinse and repeat 8 times.

[sleek viper]

How early in the expedition can I access the anomaly?

[cerulean olive]

after you get to breach 2

[sleek viper]

Ah ok

[shy dagger]

doesen't matter, i will use the minotaur

[pine topaz]

On the Anomaly, I believe, let me check real quick for you

[cerulean olive]

killing quads was a 10 mins job, including the reloads. Cheesy, yes and far less exciting than going ham at them, but it gets the job done quick and easy.

[pine topaz]

Anomaly, construction modules, 3rd one from the left

You will need some salvaged data

Then you can unlock the mods at the exo dude across the way there

The right side of the the exocraft upgrades is all the ones you want to unlock eventually, but for your task you just need the weapon

Happy to get on voice and walk you through it if you. need any assistance

[warm sigil]

Any tips for Serenity Reclaimed?

[pine topaz]

I can’t see the task any longer- what is your task?

[warm sigil]

Look at the night sky for 60 seconds, but it keeps changing back to day around 52 seconds into the task, resetting it to 0 seconds.

[remote thunder]

goto space to recharge anomaly supressor, pulse around a planet to the night side, land right in the middle, look straight up

can't be storming, cloudy skies are totally fine

[pine topaz]

👍

[stray needle]

Is the egg thing fixed yet

[remote thunder]

on steam experimental branch, yes; not on the rest of platforms

[torpid blade]

I'm on that part where I have to kill 8 of the quad...things. I also do no damage to them, what am I missing?

[remote thunder]

possibly floater units healing it?

[pine topaz]

Scroll up a bit where the Minat was recommended and @remote thunder made some weapon recommendations

Yes they will heal one another

[remote thunder]

if you're rocking pulse spitter, be sure to install impact igniter: that will help vs those heals

kite floaters away from large spider

[nimble carbon]

Hey, in the Expedition, || does each Portal in a given system lead to the same destination system when activated with the Elixir, or does each planet/moon's Portal lead to a different system?||

[torpid blade]

No I managed to kill them but mag dumping on that quad and almost nothing.ill try and find weapon recomendation

[remote thunder]

if you're using the milestone to portal, then no matter what portal was marked by quicksilver it should lead to the same system (because same elixir of blood)

[pine topaz]

I usually target focus the ones healing first…but in the bot it was cake to shoot, kill the target, jump away until they reset

[remote thunder]

multitool tech inv is very important as well, feel free to post screenshot

[pine topaz]

Yep, I don’t have near the experience or knowledge, just how I was able to complete my task

[remote thunder]

we're helping from diff angles

up to them to decide eventually which one they'd like to try next 🙂

[pine topaz]

👍

[remote thunder]

it's all good

[pine topaz]

Yep! No issues here 🙂

[misty idol]

Does anyone have a portal address for a dissonant water world? I missed the milestone and now I'm stuck in the final system with no way to complete it

[pine topaz]

Have you checked the planets you visited list?

Might be able to find the needle in the haystack if there are no coordinates

[remote thunder]

you can either portal back, or possibly teleport back; what milestone exactly are you trying to do?

[pine topaz]

But @remote thunder has a ka graphic he can share on the different phases

That what I am going to use to get that interceptor I left behind

[remote thunder]

this post <#nms-expedition message> has all the glyph addresses of all exp16 systems

(also pinned in this channel atm)

[pine topaz]

Awesome By the Way!

[misty idol]

"In Wine Dark Seas" the catch Anomaolous fish one

[pine topaz]

I can’t see them anymore, however, I believe any body of water will do if the world type mentioned is used

I did mine as soon as I came out of the portal as it was near some water

So if you use those gate addresses you should find what your looking for pretty easily

[remote thunder]

•anomalous fish: Tuwanl Akkan (REDACTED type, Breach 3 system Gaxaral) OR Tarum 95/E1 (Frozen anomaly, Breach 3 system Gaxaral) (and others)
(KNOWN BUG: log says "irradiated uncommon", this is wrong)

[pine topaz]

If you need help finding a gate you can use the maps for ancient places - I forget the name- but it will take you to a portal eventually

[remote thunder]

you could use alien charts to find a monolith, but in exp16 there's an easier way: just drink a elixir of quicksilver

@misty idol post with glyphs of the systems is here <#nms-expedition message>, dont have a breach milestone selected if you still have any left

@misty idol alternatively, you could go to anomaly teleporter, and see if there's any bases with "exp16 - breach 3" in their names

[agile oxide]

How often do derelict doors are not unsealing?

[remote thunder]

all the time if the player didn't spawn it themselves. try to toggle multiplayer on and off, or off and on

[agile oxide]

That's unfortunate. Tweaking network mode doesn't help

[feral sequoia]

if i make a new save for the expedition, I can turn it into a normal save right?

It occurs to me I should have checked before getting halfway through

[remote thunder]

farm units: ancient bones, buried mineral formation, buried cache - buy coordinates from scrap dealer for 5M, disable mp, goto space, use scanner, pulse until hailed. dont forget to sell crew manifest and captains log to scrap dealer after you're done

[agile oxide]

I already obtained around 20mils, but I can't find scrap trader on those new stations

[lusty slate]

Yes. When you complete the expedition on a fresh save, it will automatically convert to a normal one.

[hidden ether]

The scrap trader is on the bottom floor near the back, under the staircase that leads up to the guild envoy

[lusty slate]

For example, my secondary save I use is actually a former Singularity expedition save.

[agile oxide]

Thanks

[hidden ether]

Is anyone else having an issue with the new companion not spawning and the egg just being consumed?

It happened during my expedition, and again on my main save (though I was able to retrieve it by reloading)

[languid spoke]

it's a known bug, see pinned msg

[hidden ether]

Ah, okay

Anyways, my overall thoughts on the expedition is that it just just okay. I like a lot of the concepts, but the execution felt like it was missing something

[languid spoke]

it's a short expedition, duration and challenge-wise it felt like a redux

[hidden ether]

Now if this concept was combined with something like the Adrift expedition, I'd love it. The two feel like they complement one another

I'd play a whole gamemode that was just that

[remote thunder]

fixed on steam experimental branch, just got to wait for the next public patch

[hidden ether]

Gods, Adrift was such a good expedition

Easily my favourite

[misty idol]

Got it! Thank you!

[ashen shore]

Is it normal for the last portal to take an absorbent amount of time to load?

[haughty lava]

Do i have to beat everything to get the space ship. Instead having a hard time killing quadrupeds

Yeah i do 😭😭😭

[remote thunder]

possibly due to lots of other player uploaded bases; not unheard of in recent times. be patient, or if you just cant wait any longer, close the game, then turn off internet/go offline before loading the save (just disabling multiplayer wont do)

[haughty lava]

Any tips to defeat them?

[remote thunder]

yep you do

[haughty lava]

I keep keep overrunned by the quadrupeds

I cant kill them because more spawn

And everytime i aim, my controls go crazy

[feral sequoia]

Bruh when did they add fishing

[remote thunder]

unlock paralysis mortar and voltaic amplifier from mt research anomaly npc (if you do unlock voltaic amp, for basalt you'll also want to unlock the personal refiner mk2 or alternatively the medium refiner).

alt fire paralysis mortar into a pack, blast with primary fire. stunning them stops heals, and triggers voltaic amp.

[feral sequoia]

and why

[remote thunder]

aquarius update; because it's a relaxing activity

[haughty lava]

Tyty

[feral sequoia]

I mean has anyone ever actually said "you know what this game needs? A minigame were you do nothing for thirty seconds and then hold down m1 for 5"

[hidden ether]

What weapon are you using? The Neutron Gun is insanely effective against them

But you'll be hard pressed with the boltcaster

[haughty lava]

Scarter blaster

[remote thunder]

corrupted sentinels are more heavily armored, boltcaster needs sentinel upgrade modules to balance up

[hidden ether]

I think the neutron gun is a better choice for damage

[remote thunder]

that said, para mortar+volt amp will almost trivialize combat

no matter what primary you fancy more

[hidden ether]

Scatter Blaster is good early on but really tapers off when upgraded

[remote thunder]

scatter blaster shreds

[hidden ether]

Fully upgraded neutron gun is easily the best weapon in the game

[remote thunder]

truth is, no matter what weapon you use, slap on upgrades, goto town, they go down

[hidden ether]

Wait, what class of multitool are you using?

[remote thunder]

i deleted all 8 with this.

[hidden ether]

I copied my atlas sceptre from my main save, lol

[finite scaffold]

I dont understand why you guys keep insisting people just upgrade their multitools, isnt making a minotaur geobay a lot easier?

[lusty slate]

Fishing actually is something that's been requested for a while.

[finite scaffold]

No nanites needed, just 10 salvage data, some gold, some plate, some batteries, its so easy

[lusty slate]

NMS is a sandbox, fishing is often in open world sandbox games.

[haughty lava]

C. I havent upgraded

[remote thunder]

we're not insisting - we're providing advice on how to properly build a multitool, because if you need a minotaur to take out spiders, you're probably doing something wrong atm and need a little guidance.

[finite scaffold]

I had an upgraded multitool and it was still problematic, I used the basic minotaur cannon with no upgrades and got it done within like 5 minutes

[hidden ether]

I've always found mino clunky for combat unless it's controlled by the AI and supported by the player

[remote thunder]

i for example, am showing that even with a trash C CLASS tool and 3 s-class modules and para mortar you can do this milestone with ease.

[finite scaffold]

Not everyone has a ton of nanites to get upgrades for multitool though

[remote thunder]

after farming 4k of them?

for another milestone?

each s-class mod costs like 600.

[finite scaffold]

I used mine for exosuit upgrades

[remote thunder]

1 comes from 1 milestone if you use pulse spitter.

[haughty lava]

I need to get some salvage data for the medium concertor

[hidden ether]

Nanites are stupid easy to grind too. Just finish a few planetary biology and you're good

[lusty slate]

Just the paralysis mortar doesn't cost much nanites and is also easy to install.

[finite scaffold]

Salvage data is given to you for a milestone

[remote thunder]

there's a milestone that will reward enough data to unlock minotaur and medium refiner

[pine topaz]

@remote thunder You’re awesome, found the ship, triggered the quest

[finite scaffold]

Wow, thats incredibly insulting

[remote thunder]

?

[finite scaffold]

and condescending

[remote thunder]

lol.

[lusty slate]

Paralysis mortar is objectively OP. That's why it's recommended

[remote thunder]

okay then. i'm just going to back away, because you clearly don't know me.

[pine topaz]

The Sentinal Ship I left behind…

[remote thunder]

have fun.

[haughty lava]

I spent it by mistake

[finite scaffold]

I have a good idea from your attitude though

[remote thunder]

and btw - i wasn't even talking to you directly.

[finite scaffold]

You responded to me with that bro

[remote thunder]

we're good though.

[haughty lava]

???

[remote thunder]

ask me again anything, i'll answer just the same as i've been doing so far.

[finite scaffold]

In a very insulting and condescending way apparently

[remote thunder]

if you took that the wrong way

i'm sorry.

[finite scaffold]

I took it the way it was intended, reread your message

[remote thunder]

because if you need a minotaur to take out spiders
they're easy to take out if you build right.

[hidden ether]

If a player is having issues with the combat in this game, then I think it's reasonable to recommend that they try changing or upgrading their weapon

[remote thunder]

there.

that was the point.

[finite scaffold]

Telling someone that using a minotaur is doing something wrong has nothing to do with how to build a multitool

[remote thunder]

not that they shouldn't use minotaur

i never said that.

[hidden ether]

Yeah, NMS doesn't exactly have hugely difficulty combat even on higher settings

[remote thunder]

i never said that using a minotaur was wrong in any way - i said that if you need one because you'rehaving trouble with your tool, then you're most likely not building your tool right

[lusty slate]

No one said anything about the Minotaur option bring wrong.

[remote thunder]

it's nothing to do with what a player's preference is

[finite scaffold]

reread this message, you literally said you're probably doing something wrong, just because they use a minotuar over a multitool, you cant change what was said

insulting and condescending

[dusty elm]

My friend, new traveller, joined the expedition as a new save. He said the terminal wouldn't let him join there. When he ended the expedition (all rewards claimed) he went to the termainal to claim items or try and transfer them. There was no option available to do that, just an options to join the expedition. So at this point he has to leave everything (unit, nannies and items he purchased) only on the expedition. Is there anything he can do?

[remote thunder]

He said the terminal wouldn't let him join there.
probably because the connection to online discovery services server was down at the time

There was no option available to do that, just an options to join the expedition.
because they started from new save

Is there anything he can do?
transfer itms to another normal mode save (player), rejoin with their main save, get items; can't do nothing about units and nanites

[remote thunder]

doing something wrong in the sense that they're not building right, not using their supercharged slots right, not using upgrade modules, etc - that's doing something wrong, or isn't? if you supercharge your upgrade module first instead of your core weapon tech, that's doing something wrong isn't it? I never said that it was wrong to use a minotaur, ever! i said that if you need to rely on it, on this expedition, with all the rewards and access we get, you just need guidance.

but anyway..

[hallow lagoon]

For someone who started the game in the expedition how do they convert to a regular save file

[remote thunder]

keep going till the end, complete and claim all milestones, it will force convert to normal

[hallow lagoon]

They did that, then they ended the expedition, nothing worked, so they left game and came back and they are back to the ship claiming

[remote thunder]

they started expedition from main menu/new game, yes?

[hallow lagoon]

Yes

[remote thunder]

they ended the expedition
where?

[hallow lagoon]

Behind the nexus at the terminal

[remote thunder]

no

if you started from new save, there's no interaction with expdition terminus

[hallow lagoon]

So they just go straight to the quick silver merchant?

[hidden ether]

If you started in a fresh save then you can't transfer any non-milestone items

[remote thunder]

once you claimed all milestones, the game automatically converts the save to normal mode

effective immediately

[hidden ether]

The milestone items can be obtained on any future save from the Quicksilver Synthesis Companion

[remote thunder]

phase and final rewards, yes

[hallow lagoon]

Ah alright. They hatched their egg and the pet is just not there

[muted mortar]

If I want to discuss the expedition's endgame/lore, I can do it here spoilered right?

[hidden ether]

The pet egg is bugged

[lusty slate]

Known bug. Fixed in experimental, but not made public yet.

[hallow lagoon]

Will they be able to replace the egg they just wasted?

[remote thunder]

yeah, also consider #nms-spoilers

[lusty slate]

Yes, according to the experimental patch notes

[remote thunder]

Fixed an issue that caused the Bioluminescent Companion to fail to hatch from their egg. Players who have already hatched a non-viable egg should now see the companion in their collection, or can redeem another egg from the Expedition Rewards section of the Quicksilver Synthesis Companion kiosk.

[hallow lagoon]

Thanks!

[pine topaz]

My multi-tool has a damage potential of 10,650 and I still used the Bot for that task…way easier and I am lazy

[remote thunder]

super funny how they're trying to do something but can't because they're stunned all the time

[pine topaz]

🙂

[remote thunder]

wondering if blaze jav is taking advantage of that stun still

[twilit moss]

Do I smell science cooking in here?

[remote thunder]

think there was some synergy there, but cant recall for sure

[dusty elm]

When you said normal mode save, what is consider a normal mode save? Is the player meaning another person, not him, could join expedition thru normal mode save? Just making sure I"m getting this right. TY

[remote thunder]

NMS available game modes: creative/relaxed/normal/survival (these can all play together); permadeath, expedition

when started from new save, completing all expedition objectives and claiming all rewards will automatically convert the expedition mode save to a normal mode save, keeping all progress made during expedition (currencies, items, upgrades applied or installed, etc)

at that point, that now-normal mode save, that still has all the loot from expedition, can join any normal mode save - another player's, a friend's - transfer items to them, return to main menu and rejoin friend now with their main save

❗ Bug Warning !!! 🤬 🥚

There is currently an issue with the Glowing Egg expedition reward (see image »). We strongly recommend players to NOT yet claim this reward until Hello Games has fixed it.

Users have reported the Egg to disappear after hatching without a companion being added. Further more, we have noticed having the egg in inventory to possibly cause further issues.

You may wish to create a backup if possible. Run !faq-savefiles in #bot-spam.

Update October 28th 2024

The issue has just been patched on the Steam Experimental branch. If you are able, and wish to opt-in to the experimental branch, make sure to carefully read the provided info.

[unique glen]

For the “In Wine-Dark Seas” milestone, does it matter where I fish?

I don’t know what “anomalous fish” are, or where to find them.

[pine topaz]

if you read the description the planet matters…

[remote thunder]

any megaexotic with water, any fish that says "haunted" on description

•anomalous fish: Tuwanl Akkan (REDACTED type, Breach 3 system Gaxaral) OR
Tarum 95/E1 (Frozen anomaly, Breach 3 system Gaxaral) (and others)

[unique glen]

All it says is “anomalous worlds.” That doesn’t help much. lol
Hi, Bk!

[remote thunder]

hey 🙂

[unique glen]

I’m headed to the expedition “rendezvous” marker in the galaxy map. Maybe I’ll find one there

[pine topaz]

Well that’s a bummer it’s a B

[remote thunder]

you're warping to rdv systems? you did notice that milestones get you through portals from rdv to rdv right?

[unique glen]

How do you find a “megaexotic”?

[crimson rose]

I got my 4 on a planet other than the WineDark. I let the purple guage get low, and caught them off the beach with empty hooks.

[pine topaz]

If you can see my bases Radiant Shards is where I completed my task of fishing

[unique glen]

I was in a dissonant system, I’ll head back

[remote thunder]

any megaexotic with water, any fish that says "haunted" on description

•anomalous fish: Tuwanl Akkan (REDACTED type, Breach 3 system Gaxaral) OR
Tarum 95/E1 (Frozen anomaly, Breach 3 system Gaxaral) (and others)

[unique glen]

I still don’t understand what that means. lol I’m sorry

[remote thunder]

a mega exotic is a planet with only 3 resources on resource list, 1 of them is either phosphorus, ammonia or dioxite; and resource list doesn't have a plant resource

megaexotics are the ones that have the weird color filters a lot of the times and have megaflora

[unique glen]

How did people even figure that out!

[remote thunder]

anomalous fish? there's no water in exotic biomes, which have exotic/anomalous fauna; whats the closest next thing the game often refers to "anomalous", "strange"? mega exotics

[unique glen]

I’m headed to a dissonance planet

(I don’t even know what a “biome” is.) Now I feel dumb. lol

Had to look it up lol

[remote thunder]

if it's a bubble lush dissonant, then it's considered anomalous

Tarum in breach 3 is such a planet

[feral sequoia]

I got my sentinel ship y'all

[unique glen]

OMG WTF is a “bubble lush”??? lol
I’m so sorry BK, does that mean a planet with bubbles floating around?

I’ve been playing this game for ages and never use these terms. Sorry lol

[remote thunder]

bubble lush are planets that have bubbles floating all over the place, and can be both of the lush biome, or a megaexotic (red/green/blue biome) with no actual megaflora (which is the case of breach 3 planet)

that breach 3 planet is a blue biome planet, but doesn't have true mega flora; instead it uses lush biome assets

looks like a lush, but has no star bulb on resource list (no plant resource on list, 3 resources)

wait, if it's a bubble lush dissonant with grav anomaly storms, then it's also anomalous, but there's none like that in exp

[unique glen]

I’ll be back soon, gotta make dinner. But thanks! 🥰

[remote thunder]

enjoy!

[hollow prism]

idk why, but i kinda like the idea of day and night going so fast as your anomaly protection goes down

[remote thunder]

agreed

could become some new type of "storm"

or even weather pattern

[hollow prism]

yea

the stake is there as your protection gets lower, which i surprisingly like (usually i like easy-going)

[remote thunder]

i enjoy it but not for too long

it makes more of a difference early on when i'm not stacked up yet

[hollow prism]

oh yea, in the end i prepared over 10 elixir of glass

[remote thunder]

this run knocked out the 64 horror milestone while farming bones

• the 180s one

lol had a blocker because i got stuck inside my own ship after exiting it

[hollow prism]

i just expose myself with compromised protection and run around while the timer ticks lol

but honestly, a very fresh direction for future exploration

[remote thunder]

loved it

that early game is awesome

honestly

the whole thing

[hollow prism]

yea

[remote thunder]

portaling around

no drives, just portals

sweet!

ancient travelers

[hollow prism]

don't mind i dm you? i have something that i thought would be interesting that i want to share with you

[remote thunder]

ofc not

[quick tusk]

Guys I’m on phase 5 but I haven’t found a second exotic creature—where must I go next ?

[remote thunder]

check <#nms-expedition message>, and <#nms-expedition message> for glyph addresses

[haughty lava]

During phase 4, it asks that you find 2 exotic creatures but there’s only one planet with one. Would it be in the next one?

[remote thunder]

yes, there will be another suitable planet (a moon actually) for that milestone in breach 5 system

@quick tusk if you visited station of breach 4 system, ofc, just teleport back

[haughty lava]

Gotcha, so i should just head to the next portal gotcha

[remote thunder]

yeah, just select the next uncompleted milestone after genetic glitch, and keep going

[quick tusk]

Alright—also I’m not sure if this a bug it ask me to make elixir of water and I made the damn thing consumed it and it kept repeating itself

I’m wasting resources

[remote thunder]

@quick tusk sorry, one more: anomaly teleporter bases, with "exp16 - breach 4" in the name are also an option ofc

[remote thunder]

must be used on a planet

[haughty lava]

I’m trying to take a photo but my skip keeps moving

Ship**

[frozen laurel]

turn off multiplayer

[mortal gulch]

for exotic creature I don't know where to go

[remote thunder]

due to other players in the same instance (pause/options/network/view nearby player list); if you disable multiplayer, it will pause the world again.

[feral sequoia]

I didn't get nearly enough tainted metal from this derelict, are you supposed to get enough or should I do a second one

[frozen laurel]

sell the logs to the scrap dealer for 200 TM each

[remote thunder]

see <#nms-expedition message>, an earlier post here (also remember to check anomaly teleporter/space station teleporter)

[feral sequoia]

ah

[mortal gulch]

Anyone have a portal in system 3 because I don't find any T.T

[glass stump]

I SUCK at killing things. Any tips for killing the big dogs. Took me 2 hours and 2 deaths to get ONE and I need 8@

[remote thunder]

did you try going to anomaly teleporter?

[mortal gulch]

I'm in phase 4 and need to find 2 exotic creature and I need to be in a spefic system

no didn't know anomaly have one

[remote thunder]

see this:

•exotic creatures: Todai 63/Z1 (hex planet, 3 life forms, Breach 3 system Gaxaral),
** Hijo 13/W8 (1 life form, Breach 4 system Rocangh), Dupraie T47 (webbed moon, 1 life form, Breach 5 system Umardag) **

the bold part.

[mortal gulch]

I know

[remote thunder]

then why do you need to get to rdv3?

[mortal gulch]

but I don't know how to be there lol

[remote thunder]

are you in breach 4 system right now?

Rocangh?

[fresh ice]

There a few things you can do. 1st upgrade your pulse splitter. 2nd you build and install ai in minator

I also used the rdv3 system with the grav balls. Built a base right by a bunch of grav balls. If you get into trouble you can go inside the base

Paralysis mortars also a huge help

[remote thunder]

if you want to keep trying on foot combat:

unlock paralysis mortar and voltaic amplifier from mt research anomaly npc (if you do unlock voltaic amp, for basalt you'll also want to unlock the personal refiner mk2 or alternatively the medium refiner).

look into upgrading your primary weapon e.g. pulse spitter, neutron cannon etc, whatever you're using. look at space station upgrade module shops.

alt fire paralysis mortar into a pack, blast with primary fire. stunning them stops heals, and triggers voltaic amp.

[feral sequoia]

Why do they give you the objective to find 2 exotic animals in a solar system with only one exotic animal

[remote thunder]

they often do this - i'm happy there are planets in the expedition route we actually go through that can be used to complete all milestones, and we never have to leave that route

it's really just a matter of previewing milestones ahead, and what they'll need to complete, and what planets are there in a system when we get to it

there's a reason why systems and planets are all already discovered by hello games

it's also so that we can use pause/Discoveries to quickly find info about a rdv/breach system

[fresh ice]

Yep I remember a few expeditions that you had to explore a few systems a way to find the exotics

I.e. off route of the main expedition line

[feral sequoia]

Like I got a new ship with a hyperdrive, so in theory I can go back

but nope, I need an indium drive

[fresh ice]

Yes that is one strange thing about this expedition. Best way is look for a base in that system.

[remote thunder]

space anomaly/starship research npc

it's there if you want it

they didn't take that away

[feral sequoia]

I know I just doubt I have enough nanites

[remote thunder]

farming the nanites well, it's just a matter of time investment

(if you didn't bring any/started from new save)

there's probably other player bases with runaway mould and such

[fresh ice]

There is

I found one in rdv 2 I believe

[feral sequoia]

Nevermind it's way cheaper than I thought

I got a bunch of living slime from a derelict I'm turning into nanites but it's taking a bit

[remote thunder]

tainted metal also refines to nanites

better ratio too

[feral sequoia]

Oh i figured I needed that for something since it had me gather 600 of it

I guess not

[remote thunder]

the gathering it is the completing the milestone

after that you're free to do what you want with it

refine larval cores and hadal cores if you got any

[feral sequoia]

alright, so I need to go mine emiril to make an indium drive

eesh, some of these steps are over in literal minutes, and others are a hike and a half

[remote thunder]

also possible to get some from buried caches as well, even in yellow star systems, but that's more rng dependent

[glass stump]

Great I'll try that. Can you shoot them from the air in your ship. Or do that trigger other nasties?

[dusky oracle]

there is another way if you want to try it, build a minotaur, it will be easier to kill them

[quick tusk]

This one ??

[remote thunder]

that can work as well, if current ship can hover; minotaur would be a safer much more manageable alternative

[remote thunder]

"final" probably means "breach 5". click on the base once, can you see the system name there?

are you using the space station teleporter or the anomaly teleportr?

@quick tusk use the anomaly teleporter

[quick tusk]

Space station I finished phase 5 I just need to complete phase 4

To find the exotic creatures I’ve already been to Gaxaral

[remote thunder]

@quick tusk to explain this: in anomaly teleporter, you only see bases from expedition players (ignore featured bases). there, unlike space station teleporters, you'll be able to see and download iow teleport to bases that aren't even in the same system you are right now, which isn't ever going to be possible with a space station teleporter.

[remote thunder]

in Gaxaral, there's a planet with 3 exotic species: you need two for that milestone

[mortal gulch]

what is the sequence for system 3

[remote thunder]

@quick tusk the scaly planet in Gaxaral

[remote thunder]

see pinned post <#nms-expedition message>

[quick tusk]

Ok I’ll travel ba k to system 3

[remote thunder]

no, wait.

[quick tusk]

Uh ok

[remote thunder]

1. if you have a way to easily teleport back there, ok, do so.

if you don't

then just teleport to rdv4 or 5

because there's a planet with 1 exotic fauna in each of those two systems

rdv4 and 5 are both inhabited, both have a space station

easier to teleport to, if you visited them

[quick tusk]

Um ..hers what I have

[remote thunder]

first station, rendezvous 4

•exotic creatures: Todai 63/Z1 (hex planet, 3 life forms, Breach 3 system Gaxaral),
** Hijo 13/W8 (1 life form, Breach 4 system Rocangh)**, Dupraie T47 (webbed moon, 1 life form, Breach 5 system Umardag)

in bold ^

Hijo 13/W8 is the name of the planet ofc

[quick tusk]

Yeah I think I got that one already from 4

[remote thunder]

well..

if you scanned the fauna species in Hijo 13/W8 (breach 4) and in Dupraie T47 (breach 5), you'd have Genetic Glitch completed already.

[quick tusk]

So you don’t think I scanned it then ??

[ashen shore]

I got both in areea 3 I think. Was a glitch planet and it had 3 exotics. 2 of which were the robo fauna and onee was literally a tower with legs lol

[remote thunder]

@ashen shore yep, this one ^

[ashen shore]

Yeah

[quick tusk]

I’ll go to 4

[remote thunder]

did that on my way to the infested planet actually, quick stop

[jolly flume]

Where do I find ancient ruins

Alien

[quick tusk]

Oh I never discover anything on 4

Well

Looks like I did it guys 😭

[remote thunder]

goto station, buy 3 alien charts from the cartographer, pop them all if you have to, ignore HUD/don't visit marker that say monolith, spam use through any errors till it goes through, visit plaque and alien artifact

[remote thunder]

nice!

[quick tusk]

Thanks a lot homie 😭

[exotic timber]

I had a brain lapse moment and bought 3 ruins chart that… took me to the wrong places. At least the alien artifact chart only costs 1 navigation data

[remote thunder]

and we get 20 of it from a milestone, it's easy to gather otherwise too

[vast yoke]

It's possible to visit planets from expeditions in normal mode? The stuff build on them would also be on the normal mode or it will be empty?

[cerulean olive]

You can revisit them, but they'll be normal.

[crude peak]

how am i supposed to get chromatic metal for the elixir of quicksilver?

[frozen laurel]

refine copper

[cerulean olive]

Refine copper or cadmium. You can find cadmium on the starter planet.

[crude peak]

i dont have a refiner and nor does the space station sell it

[cerulean olive]

You can deploy a refiner from building mode.

[crude peak]

omg its already unlocked 😭

i thought i had to unlock it

[cerulean olive]

Nope

[crude peak]

tysm lmfao ive been tryna figure it out for like an hour

[frozen laurel]

different expeditions have different starting equipment and reward equipmet unlocks

[remote thunder]

after what they all said, a suggestion: complete phase 2 fear the sun milestone (can select it now even if you're not in that phase yet), get prebuilt personal refiner mk1, install it. dig a hole, stick terrain manipulator in there, switch to flatten mode, delete away

[cerulean olive]

Refiner is almost always there in the past few expeds.

[crude peak]

tysm guys lmao

[cosmic harness]

is this expedition supposed to spawn you on an island in the middle of the ocean

[cerulean olive]

If you're lucky enough, it'll be an island with your ship on it too. I wss lucky once and had bad luck twice.

[cosmic harness]

oh so this is intended

[cerulean olive]

Yes, it is.

[cosmic harness]

if there really is a god then why must they forsake me like this

[cerulean olive]

Thing is, there is hardly any ferrite dust on that island. You'll have to swim and gather it elsewhere.

[polar bone]

this is very difficult wtf

[cerulean olive]

And you'll be needing ferrite dust to fix the ship

[remote thunder]

@cosmic harness dismantle scanner for dust

[jolly flume]

Thank you

[remote thunder]

@cosmic harness there's a jelly and a repair kit in your ship

[polar bone]

I can't findanything so I just die

[remote thunder]

@cosmic harness dismantle rocket launcher for copper and condensed carbon

[cosmic harness]

oh
i didnt notice that lol thanks!

[remote thunder]

complete phase 2 milestone fear the sun for personal refiner mk1

[fluid vault]

right off the heels of aquarius i really didn't expect cursed to be as difficult as it was, but it was a very nice change

[remote thunder]

where are you at?

[polar bone]

start

I found NO oxygen so life support ended

[remote thunder]

did you see my tips to @polar bone ?

[remote thunder]

look for heptaploid wheat plants and hazaardous plants too

[lusty slate]

Yeah, if you get a crappy spawn area it's brutal.

[cerulean olive]

First run was a bit tough, but it's not a hard exped, imo.

[remote thunder]

surface hazardous plants always drop o2

[polar bone]

I mean only one's I've done are liquedators and aquarius

[remote thunder]

cave hazardous plants can have either sodium or o2

[fluid vault]

i couldn't finish liquidators tbh, i got through the first couple phases and then just couldn't be bothered to keep going

[polar bone]

there are none

[cerulean olive]

There should be plenty on the starter planet.

[polar bone]

not any near me

nor ar there caves

[strange ivy]

@polar bone if you cant find any for some reason you may just need to reload your game, if not, learn the word for “help” in one of the languages and practice language skills saying help to everyone till they recharge your life support

[polar bone]

aaaaand I'm out of boltcaster ammo

[cerulean olive]

Did you scan the area?

[remote thunder]

with visor, look for humming sac/subterranean relic icons, then dig down

[polar bone]

dont see any

I think I'm just in the worst possible starting area

I literally spawned underwater

This is actually impossible, I'm out of shields, materials, boltcaster ammo and surrounded by 15 horrors

[strange ivy]

How did you spawn underwater…

[jolly flume]

Finished!

[cerulean olive]

There are plants that give oxigen replenishment under water. You can use your terrain manipulator to create land and even a bridge to move across

[strange ivy]

@polar bone try scanning materials, some things contain oxygen

[polar bone]

idk, that's just where I spawned

[cerulean olive]

Not intended to go off topic, but your name, mainly the Nagrand part, brings back a lot of memories ...

[polar bone]

This is actually hell I can't defend myself at all

[polar bone]

I'm trying to bridge but it's so jank

[strange ivy]

You could attempt to relaunch the expedition

[polar bone]

This is the situation that I'm in currently:

The mountain that's close I already searched. Barren save for some ferrite dust, most of which I can't even mine without an advanced laser

[strange ivy]

And what about your ship

[polar bone]

Can't really repair it

[remote thunder]

are you near your ship or not.

[strange ivy]

You should have moat of the needed materials plus a repair kit

[feral sequoia]

Yo I found a class A sentinel ship in the 4th phase system

[polar bone]

I am now

[remote thunder]

dismantle scanner for dust
there's a jelly and a repair kit in your ship
dismantle rocket launcher for copper and condensed carbon

[ocean gorge]

Underwater tends to have something that has ferrite dust, just hope you have shallow areas

[polar bone]

THERE'S GIANT WORMS NOW?!

[remote thunder]

@polar bone complete phase 2 milestone 4, claim it, install personal refiner mk1 if you need to refine something

[strange ivy]

I dont believe they actually do anything i got landed on by one and it phased through me

[remote thunder]

always has been on some planets, harmless

[frozen laurel]

Desperate times, desperate measures. That's rough.

[remote thunder]

can't damage the player, can't damage it

[remote thunder]

it is what it is

can make all that back on that first trip to station

[polar bone]

I can't do any of this because I keep getting bombarded by these stupid jellyfish horros

[strange ivy]

Get in your ship…

[remote thunder]

you need to shoot them with boltcaster

[polar bone]

They'll destroy it

[ocean gorge]

They shoot your ship too

[cerulean olive]

Not on this planet. Just salt and other things, but no ferrite

[polar bone]

I've literally used all my ammo

[strange ivy]

Right, but he should have enough time to repair

[remote thunder]

spent too much time walking about i'm afraid

[cerulean olive]

Get inside the building for a breather.

[remote thunder]

they will follow

tried that

[cerulean olive]

One or two will, but not all of them follow you in.

[strange ivy]

@polar bone are your ship shields down

[remote thunder]

dismantle scanner on your tool to get ferrite dust

complete phase 2 milestone 4 to get personal refiner, install it

refine the jelly in ship for dihydro

[polar bone]

I don't understand the milestone

I'm digigng under the island

It's not progressingi t

[ocean gorge]

The game can give you bad spawns
I didn’t have a great spawn either. I had very little dihydrogen near where I spawned. Although at least I wasn’t on one of those really raised isolated islands. I was about 5u underwater and my ship was sorta disconnected from the mainland, so I had to go get some other materials and went through several rounds of elixirs to get off planet. Not the worst, but I’m very glad I was experienced at the game

[strange ivy]

You have to tunnel, so go sideways

[remote thunder]

select the milestone, switch to terrain manipulator, dig a hole about 3m deep, stick beam inside it, then switch to flatten mode, and delete/wiggle cursor around

[remote thunder]

you don't have to tunnel no; it works by volume of dirt deleted, not distance

flatten mode will be a lot faster

[strange ivy]

Mine did not work until i went sideways

I am unsure why

[remote thunder]

it worked fine for me, we have been using that trick since expeditions before

[strange ivy]

Weird

[frozen laurel]

I tunnelled my way around a storm planet to farm fossils. Two milestones.

[strange ivy]

I may have been having issues

[cerulean olive]

Flatten does the job quick indeed

[polar bone]

flatten isint working

Is it because I'm underwater

[cerulean olive]

Flatten works underwater too

[frozen laurel]

The squid don't come after you underground or water either.

[ocean gorge]

Don’t think that should make a difference

[cerulean olive]

They do

[strange ivy]

Only underwater, but if you are underground they do not

[frozen laurel]

go deeper, they do not have the ability to attack you

[polar bone]

all it's doing is removing the ground and it doesnt progress

[strange ivy]

Have you selected the milestone

[polar bone]

yes

[remote thunder]

are you watching the hint

[cerulean olive]

They do. Tried that trick, but they come underground too.

[remote thunder]

@polar bone this is fear the sun milestone we're talking about

[strange ivy]

Thats very odd, ive used tunneling to get away many times

[polar bone]

I know

[remote thunder]

don't know why it's not working, doesn't matter whether underwater or not

try to save+reload

[polar bone]

this is what happened

[cerulean olive]

I use that tactic with sentinels all the time and tried it with them squids too, but they found me.

[frozen laurel]

me too, traversed the entire 1600u with an empty hazard protection, they were swarmed above

but never attacked me underground

[polar bone]

just a canyon

and that's the only time flatten was even doing anytihng in the first place

[strange ivy]

I use it all the time with bothsentinels and squids, so long as you seal off the hole they wont follow you

[remote thunder]

where you are right now, aim at your feet, dig a hole, stick the beam inside it, switch to flatten - delete. that has to count.

flatten mode:

[cerulean olive]

Ah. Sealing off might be the difference. I never do that.

[polar bone]

I am on flatten mode

It doesn't help that I can't see anytihn

[strange ivy]

Ah, no you must seal it otherwise they still come through

I found that out when i got eaten alive

But then i just used the geology cannon and blew em all up

[remote thunder]

you could just dig a hole and get inside it yourself, and then start to flatten even further down

[cerulean olive]

Sentinels hardly do, when you dig in far enough, in my experience. I'll remind to seal off the entrnace next time.

[strange ivy]

Sentinels no, squids yes

Sentinels will literally not shoot you if you go behind anything

[remote thunder]

@polar bone try to save+reload if that's still not working. good luck

[cerulean olive]

I only had some trouble with squids on my first run. On other runs, they weren't a bother much.

[polar bone]

I really appreciate the help you're trying to give but nothing is working

[remote thunder]

well, did you start from new save or existing

[polar bone]

existing

[remote thunder]

did you try tunneling like xdoge suggested

close the tunnel behind you

[polar bone]

I mean I'm gonna drown eventually

[strange ivy]

This worked for me

So what i did was tunnel downwards, go in the tunnel seal it and go directly sideways.

[remote thunder]

have you considered melee jetpacking into water at a low angle, to get a huge swimming speed boost, on to another island? you can swim at the surface

[frozen laurel]

Take a taxi.

[strange ivy]

Im still on my first run almost done though, i mucked around alot playing with stuff and just shooting stuff

I think im at like

Over 24h or something

Probbaly more idk

[cerulean olive]

👀

[strange ivy]

I am not the speediest

[cerulean olive]

First run took me about 7 hours. Others only 4

[strange ivy]

Lolllll

Yeah no i think i started my run on

Friday?

Thursday

Idk

[polar bone]

Can I like

Pay someone to get me out of this jam

[strange ivy]

But i literally be doing a bunch of goofy stuff

[cerulean olive]

Must admit I cheesed the second and third run.

[strange ivy]

I think i spent like 5 hours fishing

[polar bone]

Because yoi can join people as long as you're doing the expedition rigth

[strange ivy]

Tryinf to catch cool fish

[remote thunder]

did you already dismantle stuff you have for resources? like neural stimulator on your exosuit, the rocket launcher on your ship,

[strange ivy]

Oh i also have like

[polar bone]

I can't get a refiner so it doesn't matter

[remote thunder]

because the idea here is to get out of that planet to recharge anomaly sup, or craft ammo to delete boundary horrors

[strange ivy]

40 million units and 10k nanites or smth stupid

[cerulean olive]

Refiner is in your build mode

[polar bone]

yeah I know but I can't make it

no oxygen

[remote thunder]

like.. enter+exit ship, pause, options, reload restore point. have multiplayer disabled in network settings.

[strange ivy]

Then complete the tunneling milestone

[remote thunder]

there's got to be a fix for fear the sun

[strange ivy]

I dont think he actually tunnelled down when he did the flattening

Thats his biggest issue

[polar bone]

I tunneled straight dow

[remote thunder]

no, it's bugged somehow

again, save+reload.

fixes more issues than you know

[cerulean olive]

Reboot the game and try again.

[remote thunder]

that too

[strange ivy]

@polar bone what device are you on

[polar bone]

pc

[remote thunder]

not using any mods right?

[strange ivy]

Okay no clue then

[polar bone]

dont even know how to do modded

[remote thunder]

ok

[frozen laurel]

Yes you can join other people. #nms-lfg-or-trades

[remote thunder]

then save+reload, try again

if that doesn't work, restart game

if you can't fix this yourself, i can bail you out in a few hours if no one does that first

[strange ivy]

I would but my ps4 is currently overheating

[remote thunder]

well, i think, now that i remember steam exp did drop another update which might have taken away my ability to mp

[strange ivy]

I have to wait a few hours

[remote thunder]

anyway

if it was me

[polar bone]

yup

even after restarting

[remote thunder]

i'd be dismantling all my tech to see what i'd get

[remote thunder]

scanner for ferrite dust

[remote thunder]

do you know how to melee jetpack?

[polar bone]

I cannot do it consistantly

[remote thunder]

melee jetpack into water, heading to that island over there. note that if you melee jetpack almost at water surface level, you'll carry the momentum into swimming, swimming a lot faster

start running, melee, as the weapon animates, press & hold jetpack

might be easier to do in 1st person

@polar bone like i said - pause options network DISABLE multiplayer, then save+reload from main menu

disable mp if you want to avoid bugs

the most varied kind

i'm almost done with my 3rd run, and i've not come across this issue once yet

always mp disabled

[stray needle]

is the egg bug fixed yet?

[remote thunder]

only on steam experimental branch;

[clever sail]

Is the new ship made of customizable parts? The salvager acts like it is, but I don't get anything.

[cerulean olive]

During expeds, it's always a good idea to turn MP off right from the start.

[stray needle]

What even is that?

[remote thunder]

unintended, fixed on steam experimental branch

[cerulean olive]

No amd it will be fixed in the next patch. Can't dismantle it for parts.

[clever sail]

unintended for it to be salvagable as parts, or unintended as it not dropping parts

[remote thunder]

the former

[clever sail]

Ah, beaten by a second lol

Well that's fine by me. It looks super cool

[remote thunder]

yep same

[cerulean olive]

Would be nice of it was possible, though. I'd repaint it in stealth paint.

Red doesn't fit my drip, lol

[polar bone]

I think I'm just gonna sit this out

If Ican't do this I can't do the rest

[cerulean olive]

On a positive note: I love how the community steps in to help.

Best Discord I've seen so far.

[polar bone]

yeah I do appreciate it

I just can't do this unfortunately

Wait is my main save fucked now

[cerulean olive]

Nope, it's not. You can return to your main save anytime you want.

[polar bone]

ok so I don't have to go to the anomoly

[cerulean olive]

Nope. It's an option in the pause menu

[polar bone]

alright

Out of curiousity how hard is the rest of the expedition compared to the first part

[cerulean olive]

It isn't hard. The first part is tougher.

[polar bone]

oh

[cerulean olive]

But the rest isn't hard to do

[polar bone]

hang on

[cerulean olive]

Start the expedition from a fresh save if you do want the rewards. They are accountwide anyway.

[polar bone]

Oh I was just gonna go to the lfg channel

[cerulean olive]

You just can't bring stuff to the terminal, but you don't need it.

[crude peak]

what do i do at the second portal? its asking me for a glyph code not the blood elixir?

[cerulean olive]

Did you craft the elixir? If so, it should ask you for it

[crude peak]

im dumb lmfao i drank it on accident

[cerulean olive]

Should be an option to hide comm balls....

I think many of us have that on their wishlist.

[feral sequoia]

amazed there's not a mod for that

[cerulean olive]

nod

[torpid blade]

What are "alien ruins" I've dont like 40 different scans with the booster and nothing is counting toward progress

[hollow pilot]

get map from space station. it works like a champ

[torpid blade]

I actually did get 1, that one that cost 5mil? and it also didnt count

[hollow pilot]

no. not that one

[cerulean olive]

Not at the scrap dealer, but at the cartographer

[hollow pilot]

one from cartographer, i think it says alien in description

[torpid blade]

they are the structures that you get 3 keys andf then open the big chest, right?

[feral sequoia]

I got the map too, and it indeed led me to a ruin, it just didn't count toward the objective...

[cerulean olive]

Alien artifact map

[hollow pilot]

yep. thats what i used

[torpid blade]

yeah did that too and it didnt count

[cerulean olive]

Doesn’t always send you to a monolith, though. But most of the times it does

[hollow pilot]

i think its luck what it finds

[cerulean olive]

You have to try a few.

[torpid blade]

HDR ruins screenshots https://i.imgur.com/aeWi4gA.png

this right?

[feral sequoia]

wait, do you need a monolith or the sit with the keys

because I got the keys ruins with a map but it skipped the monolith, and it didn't count toward the objective

[torpid blade]

got a monolith just now, ill let you know

[cerulean olive]

Not the dig site. That ‘s a ruin and you don’t want those

You need the ones without knowledge stones.

[torpid blade]

monolith did NOT give me credit

[feral sequoia]

it says ruins tho

[cerulean olive]

But not those ruins.

[feral sequoia]

no your right it needs alien ruins

not ancient ruins

because the ancient ruins totally aren't made by aliens

[torpid blade]

woah just found a gaseous sentience, pretty cool

[feral sequoia]

Yeah I found it too!

[cerulean olive]

I think they are called plaques on the scanner

[feral sequoia]

He told me to leave before he evaporated me by mistake

[clever sail]

So someone mentioned an egg bug. What egg bug are people experiencing?

I want to hatch the egg we get from the expedition, but you can't transfer it so now I don't know what to do

[cerulean olive]

No pet spawns when you crack it. But it will be fixed soon

[clever sail]

oh, huh

so there's no way to get a pet yet, I should wait on ttransferring saves back to my main save
