phase and final rewards are all unlocked account wide and can be claimed at the quicksilver shop, in any save under the same account
For the longest time I thought there was only 6 pet slots.
it was in the past, but 18 atm
no need to worry about that, no
what you need to worry is to complete expedition in time, and be sure to claim the phase and final rewards.
that's it.
oh and btw!
for example

non-consumable quicksilver purchases are also unlocked account wide (and quite a few other things too, like scrap dealers or autophage's or twitch)
All these bugs and issues out the gate, and Hello Games only made this a 2 week expedition.
I]
started the expedition on the save that I do my main stuff on, if i claim this ship, will i be able to claim it in the anomaly when i switch back to my main save?
yes, from the quicksilver shop, in claim expedition rewards dialog option
I've finilized the expedition, brought the egg to the sequensor, but i don't have my pet with me..
alr thx

Shared by: @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.
just wait for next public patch
and word of advice: always have multiplayer disabled when using egg sequencer in anomaly
@remote thunder ok so I did that and now it's telling me to go to portal I found I'm assuming so im gunna go back fo the system now?
So what should i do to obtain my pet? Just wait for now?
Yep
Oh, ok(
keep going now yeah. you're still in euclid yeah (galaxy map, top left,below mini map)? goto portal, follow mission hint. should go through just fine now.
Thank freaking god....... 🙌
yay! 🥳
I have literally everything but thr last elixirs done. I was gunna be so frustrated tp have to start over
happy for you
Sorry, I think I asked before lol. Don't quite remember the answer...
Is this a short expedition? (Finally freed up some space on my laptop to reinstall NMS... and as usual I want to do the whole thing in one session. Wondering if it's possible...)
i'd say that with the pinned posts here, starting from existing save/getting a good spawn point will let you push through in like 4-6h, no problem.
Oh nice, doable. Think I'll have a go in the weekend
oh yeah, absolutely
This was my first expedition, did it in a new save and it took 8 hours so you could definitely knock it out in 4 if you know what you're doing
even less, but i was just trying to get an average out 😄
Is there only one exotic planet in Phase 4?
yes; another in breach 5 system (will be a moon this time, remember, gold on resource list), so don't worry. keep going
Phase 3 has the scaly one with 3 exotic animals
It was because the Planet of Light only has a single creature.
How would I know my coordinates if I wasn't in my ship
latitude+longitude? visor shows you coords, right side
Hi all. Please excuse my long drawn out paragraph 🙂 but I simply had to talk about my great experience today while on the cursed expedition. I made it to phase 4 after following the advice of two helpful discord members and decided to visit the space anomaly to purchase an exosuit upgrade. A user by the name of Freeeemon (console player possibly?) gave me and several other people in the space station thousands of gold, silver, pure ferrite dust, magnetised ferrite, several nav data, 7 multitool expansion slots, 8 exosuit expansion slots, several starshield batteries and 3 high tier upgrade mods. I couldn't believe it my jaw dropped. I refused to leave without thanking them with the thank you gesture (I have no idea how to use the chat feature in no man's sky 🙂 ) I know a lot of you are experienced players and are not surprised by such generosity, but for me no mans sky is my first multiplayer game ever. I have always avoided multiplayer games out of fear of toxicity, multiplayer games have a reputation for creating communities that can be pretty nasty. So I truly expected the worst and adjusted my multiplayer settings so I wouldn't have to interact with anyone. But imagine my surprise to find out other players were going out of their way investing time and resources to help other players with amazing bases, guides and being super generous by giving away loads of supplies. This user whose name is Freeeemon in one day changed my outlook on the multiplayer experience with their kindness. If you happen to see this message Freeeemon thank you so much, you made my day. And to all the individuals who read this far thank you for your time. I promise to stop talking everyone's head off now lol
i read it all - i'm happy that the experience was a good one (remember to turn off pvp in network settings though). that player might not be a member of the game, but i'm sure they enjoyed the act of giving. NMS community is general really laid back and helpful. text chat only exists on pc. have fun, anything else just ask 🙂
Thank you so much
How do I get to a previous breach system to get my 2nd exotic animal found?
are you in breach 4? don't worry - breach 5 system will have another exotic fauna species for you to scan, you don't have to complete genetic glitches milestone before moving on the other milestones in phase 4 and going to breach 5
•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) **
I'm the dumbest person alive I thought you had to get all of them done in 4 first, thank you!!
NMS is an aggressively helpful community. Glad you've gotten to experience it!
Any tips for the corrupted Quads?
I tried to find one of the huge tall skinny guys, (forgot the name sorry) destory the resources around it so the smaller drones show up; kill corrupted drones until 3 "stars" and then the quads will start spawning in. They usually have 1 or 2 repair bots flying with them
see <#nms-expedition message>
I meant not getting slaughtered by them.
paralysis mortar can keep them perma stunned while you unleash clips of ammo of your primary weapon tech (supercharge your weapon core tech, place any upgrade modules you have for it in adjacent slots), trivializing them almost (can kite floaters away first, if there's any - the time they will take to get back over you'll probably have killed the spider already, don't worry about the resonator). minotaur cannon can as well. a ship with hovering capabilities can do it too (seems rocket launcher is popular these days 😄 ).
Where did you guys find Abyssal Horrors? Can't seem to find any on Tarum 95/E1
Use your analysis visor and do a target sweep
Which abyssal horror
You find them in the ocean
If you mean that one
don't be in a group, have the right milestone selected, use target sweep like uf0 pilot said, underwater, try to fly away from time to time if target sweep isn't working, be sure to have plenty of launch fuel
I just used the submarine once I knew the direction they were in
using nautilon, and high powered sonar, we can scan for sunken abandoned buildings - there's always 1 abyssal horror next to them
companion egg bug fixed or still bug
Easier to find in deeper water. Suggestion: Get aqua landing and fly to a highly water filled area! Thats what I did
Good news: So I found another player's base for hunting Corrupt Quadrupeds.
Bad news: Turns out the Sentinels have a capital ship.
I need to run derelict, I only have done one derelict before, for Leviathan expedition (someone shared glyphs for that, I don’t remember details, guess I must have portaled there?)
Anyway, I’ve heard the beginning system has one that’s not too difficult, but how do I find it?
Do I just go to the starting system space station and pay the scrap dealer for one of those locator beacon thingies?
Yes. Just get the receiver from the scrap dealer, activate it when you leave station and pulse until it pings
Alright, thanks
Good luck! I saw that start system was just jellies so hopefully a quick run
Yeah, I read that too, so hopefully it won’t be too bad
hey im stuck on a mission thats called ink stained skies what am i supposed to do?
First, always be sure you’ve selected the milestone you’re trying to complete so it gives you the correct pointers in the right lower corner on your main screen
But that one, you shoot the “visions” things, that keep invading your sight, the jellyfish like creatures
You can even use the mining laser if that’s all you have (but I think the starter MT has a boltcaster)
my screen is solid white and i cant get anything to load correctly
is there anyway to fix it?
looks like this
Just finished my first expedition, saw a video of a guy putting his new rewards in storage so that they would go into his main save, where is this storage area? Is it not the expedition terminus?
You don't see that storage until you see the dialog where it tells you the expedition is ending.
So you have to collect all the rewards to make that happen.
I don’t know why it looks like that, does reloading the game have it look the same way?
I believe I finished everything, don't see the cargo area. Is this because I did it on a new save?
If you used a new save, there is no place to transfer things to, yeah
My guess is that you still have the rewards to collect.
my compass loads with everything popping up on my screen but it doesnt load anything else and ive tried reloading the save and nothing
You’re only transferring things at the terminus if you had an existing save you’re going back to
I think they said they were doing it inside a main save or maybe I assumed.
Ah damn, I guess I really only care about the new ship. Seems like that should be mentioned pretty clearly... just getting back into the game and honestly thought you had to start a new save for the expeditions
Can I claim everything to my main save yet?
I wish I had something more to suggest, I’m far from an expert, maybe someone else will have some ideas🙏
You can get the new ship on any save once you're done.
thanks anyways
my primary save is the same way
yep I realize that thanks just a bummer I can't transfer the quicksilver or nanites I earned
Can you hit the ESC (or controller button) key to get to the logout menu?
When get completely out of the game and back in is it still all white?
i reset my graphics and it works
yes
Ah
Reset your graphics? Not sure what you mean.
You mean in the game's graphics settings?
Out of curiosity, what graphics card (or chipset) do you have? nVidia, AMD or Intel?

LOL! I think I had that egg problem on my PS4 run through of the expedition and didn't even notice it. Didn't have the problem in the PC run through.
is there a beginner guide to expedition
idk what to do
how long does it take to finish ean expedition btw
Around 3 or so days for me
Mainly I'm a new player as well and I was learning stuffs
There're player built structures on each of the planets in the expedition to make your run way easier
oo okk nicee i am also new player so i dont know anythkng hahaha
how do we know we complete the expedition tho?
anyone else really gettting annoyed by these damn horrers or whatever that constantly attack you?
If you hit esc on on keyboard, you can see there's an expedition tab. You'll complete it once you done all of the missions
The tab only show up when you're in an expedition
They only get aggressive if the boundary bar falls below 50%. Keep it charged up and they leave you alone.
im tempted to just buy out the materials just to keep it top cause it keeps causing issues
You can also fly up in to space to top it off. Then land back on the planet and it's full for a minute before having to top it off again.
Or install the boundary fixer thing at a base
I also found tunneling underground to get to some locations was helpful in keeping it from draining. There's also a milestone for tunneling...
ahh ok thank you
Buy di-hyrogen jelly in bulk at space stations (trade terminal or pilots). Toss in the refiner for 30 di-hydrogen each.
Then just farm qualia on a non hazard planet for a bit. You'll have plenty of materials for elixirs of glass then. I always had 12+ on me.
why is my portal not letting me use the blood thing? im like 99% sure i have the right one
is the mission highlighted in the log?
thats what it was, thats weird, thank you
np
Give or take how long will this expedition take? I don’t have a lot of time to play so hoping it’s not too long
where do i get storm crystals?
is the breach 5 portal supposed to ask for all the glyphs to be charged or am I bugged out? It's not asking for the blood elixer
There are a bunch of com things too and it is super freezing my game
do i have to collect this in the expedition to have it in my real save?
I dont think so as long as you completed the expedition
this ship should be available at the QS store
What's the name of the Phase 2 system? I don't remember if I landed in the space station on it and I'm trying to teleport back to it.
Do I need to keep the hypnotic eyes for an elixir recipe? Or can I sell them?
I dont think the eyes are used in crafting
But instead of selling them, refine them into nanites
One of the milestones is about getting nanites, every bit helps
, all systems should be listed there
Need a quick answer. When during the expedition can I call the Anomaly?
is there anything special about the ship u can get from this expedition apart from the look?
WHATS THE PROCEDURE FOR LEAVING THE EXPEDITION AND BRINGING MY STUFF BACK? IM IN EXPEDITION MODE, ON ANOMOLY, AND THERES NO "END EXPEDITION" BUTTON?
oops caps
Oh cool, thanks for the tip 🙃
After you you get to the second system
only looks
If you started the exped from an existing save and want to go back to regular gameplay, you can do so from the buttons in pause menu
The same area where Reload Restore Point button is
Yeah I'm looking they arent in any sort of chronological order
Thanks!
so i ended the expedition with the boundry herold selected, rather than the droidd ship i found and WANTED to bring back. The expedition is over, and the boundry herold is the one in the kiosk for redeeming. is there a way to get that droid ship out of there with all the modules i installed somehow, like roll back and choose to a different ship or am i burnt??? 😢
if taking it slow and learning, sds about right. in part depends on your combat skills. one piece in porticular was rough combt wise, but the rest was chill
No you can only copy the currently equipped ship / MT once you end the exped

Where's the best place to look for storm crystals? I'm on Ecorsfi which has plentiful storms but I can never find any storm crystals..
Have you tried on the plane that has Activated minerals on it?
•storm crystals: Urston (Breach 2 system: Temeferi X) (and others)
Any tips on defeating the the boundary guardian?
make sure you are on a flat surface so that you can run around it while shooting at it
So kinda like defeating the quadropeds, just keep moving
yep
Questions: is it true that the Expedition is over in like a week? This is a rather short one then? And will we be able to get the ship in the future if not able to finish Expedition?

How to Check Pins 
To toggle the Pins popout:
Thx!
It cuts down on bug and glitches
I would keep it off for all of the "Breach X" milestones for sure. Those can break in some subtle ways. Not sure about the rest.
where do i get tainted metals???
from running derelict freighters. buy the emergency scanner for 5 million units from the scrap dealer on the space station.
i see okay going there now
the starter system and next system derelicts are relatively easy and have enough loot that with looting some crates and selling both the log and manifest, you'll get all the metal you need in one run
first floor to the left of and underneath the guild envoy, tucked away in the corner
Do all extreme weather systems create storm crystals? I sold all my crystals not realising I needed them to craft the fourth elixir so I’m searching for more.
I’m on a planet with Choking Sandstorms and activated copper, and can’t seem to find any
No, only some extreme weather planets spawn storm crystals
Thanks! Looks like I need to go find another one then

Why is the main reward just the millennium falcon
what is millenium falcon
The Millennium Falcon is a fictional starship in the Star Wars franchise. Designed by Joe Johnston for the movie Star Wars (1977)
Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millennium_Falcon
btw i hewrd we can only keep 6 ships what about the rest? i cant be a ship collector?
Back in the year 1999 we thought that birds would all die because they couldn't imagine numbers with more that 7 digits in them, but scientists were able to genetically engineer a bird that could imagine up to 16 digit numbers and had a rapacious libido allowing it to breed that property into the avian genepool. They released 2000 of them into the wild on December 31st 1999 at 11:59pm and that's why they're called Millenium Falcons.
12
@mystic yew The ship we get, looks quite similar, hence why some refer to it by that name
own 12, display 6 I believe
But collecting ships is so last season. Scrap them for parts!
Don't scrap the Falcon though because apparently you don't get components.
Some expeditions reward ships, yes. And you can keep 12 of them. It's best to keep 11 and keep a slot open for claiming ships which you then scrap for profit and parts for building more ships.
i see so we can build the falcon in the future?
If you have 12 and you find a 13th you get the option to swap it for your current ship, which is usually not a great trade.
When you scrap a ship - and I've not done this bit so I don't know how it works in practice - you get the option of reclaiming the body, cockpit or wings I think. So 1 ship gives you 1/3 of a ships worth of parts. And you can then build a ship with stored parts to get your ideal look.
If you have an expedition ship as your active ship in a live expedition, you can clone it back into an empty slot in your main save via the Expeditioniser 3000 machine on the Anomaly, then scrap it, then clone it again etc etc to get all the parts to build a new one, if that's your bag.
oo i see
And of course you can claim the falcon from the Quicksilver dealer on the Anomaly on any save once you've unlocked it via the expedition. The cloning thing is only really if you want a bunch of the same ship on 1 save to scrap for parts
if you played the expedition on a separate save, claim it from the QS shop on the main save. The cloning thing is for when you played the expedition on the main save via the Expedition machine on the anomaly. And again, probably only if you really want the specific ship you had in the expedition (it copies the installed tech across) or you want to make multiples of it and can afford all the nanites.
BTW I'm far from an expert so take everything I say with a pinch of salt. Unless it's about the history of genetically engineering studly birds, that stuff is 100% solid gold fact.
i was thinking the ships is kinda like a collection thing like mounts hahaha
This was a tough expedition for a noob like me but I finally pulled through. The new ship is awesome
Which of the 4th system planets are exotic?
•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)
(from the pins in here)
gold in the resource list means the planet is exotic, if you are looking just generally
everything in this game is a collection thing. But you have limited inventory space so you can't keep everything. The graph of how useful something will be in the future vs how many people have one stashed in a box somewhere (that's right, Angler fish, I'm talking about you!) are completely out of phase with one another. Right now you're collecting ships. In a few expeditions time when your collection of worm folios and golden dinosaur jaws grows, you'll realise that ships are just inventory slots with wings.
I love going though a portal and seeing 3 anti Jew comm ball messages….
I realy hope you reported them. stuff like that needsto go away

keep telling yourself that the Hawk Tuah is just the name of the off-brand Millenium Falcon 🙂
lol ok
what's a decent way to transfer a bunch of nanites to the expedition from main save? I don't have any mould farms, and no other players' bases nearby do, either
There was a mould farm on first World I think?
I guess that's better than trying to transfer from main save. thanks
Otherwise you can transfer items that can be refined into nanite
30 salvaged data is 450 nanites for example
One of the milestone rewards is 8,000 living slime, you can refine that into mold
considering im still in like early game should i make a new save for expedition or start a new save?
dor expedition?
I'd say go from main save, even small amounts of survival mats can help do expedition smoother
and you can progress on your main save by taking back materials from the expedition
how do you heal in the expedition? My health is almost fully depleted and I haven't taken damage in a couple minutes, and it's not... recovering?
look for a health station.
wow can i take back the scanner and stuff?
Hey, i am only one who have problems with collecting condensed carbon in the new expedition?
ok, no, I just managed to heal a little. Not sure what happened.
(re: Condensed Carbon) probably, yes. Make sure you're scanning anything that looks like a plant, some of them give small amounts of condensed carbon as a secondary benefit. Then hit your scan button (left stick click?) and look for a big C in a red block on your HUD - that's condensed carbon crystals. I think you need the advanced laser to mine the bigger crystals but you'll get one from the milestones.
you start with a portable refiner recipe. refine normal carbon
Or yeah, that's probably easier 😁
Oh, i missed that completely. In prev expeditions refiner was a reward for an expedition step. Thanks!
ran into the same problem myself lol
Any chance there'll be planets in the main game that spawn Boundary horrors and have that hazard and effects?
Was able to take a metric ton of the Water elixir to my main save, but it didn't have the boundary failure effects during the fight
to our knowledge, this mechanic is unique to exp16
I would really love to have boundary horrors and the boss fight in the main game. But given that this is pretty much a holiday event it's unlikely they will be regular features.
if it ever comes to non-expedition modes? maybe, who knows
🤞
💯
also note that you could complete phase 2 milestone 4 even now, claim it, and get prebuilt personal refiner mk1
hmm?
farm as much Atlantideum during the Expedition and send back as many Elixir of Water as you can to your main save.
Boss fight works in it, but it doesnt have the sky/screen effect during it
no need to farm atlantideum in exp specifically for that
wrong reply sry
there's dissonant worlds all over in the universe
i've got a converted-to-normal save, i'll be trying this out
thanks
I'll have to wait and see if a mod is made that'll let us make them. I am not redoing the expedition just for elixirs lol.
wait do converted-to-normal save keep the bluprints from the expedition afterwards? 👀
can most likely just add the recipes to main saves via save editor
yes
buhh
finding portals is like eating candy
I haven't played with save editor yet.
signal booster not working for my second ruin i need to find ? this normal, what i missed
go get 3 alien charts from the cartographer, use them all if needed, spam use through errors, until you get a plaque or non-buried ruin marker
@static wharf ignore monoliths and buried ruins, don't clear their markers
it worked thanks
The last 2 day playing the curse expedition I'm experiencing 2 problems (psvr2)
1 the elixir you take to protect you from the squids remains at 100% so I can't replace it even though it is actually decreasing.
2 when trying to complete the task floating on the sea for 60 seconds, I've been floating with a depth of 69u and the timer just doesn't start.
Please help 🙏
last question:
Did your convert-to-normal save keep the boundary failing mechanic/boundary horrors after being converted?
are you playing with VR?
Yes
ok, than you must switch to controller for the floating mission same problem yesterday, a friend pla also on VR and it doesnt count he switch on controller and it works
for your first problem i have no idea sry
Nms is temperamental with your horizon line or whatever it is it’ just doesn’t like vr people lol
Thank you I'll try that
what is the class of the new expedition ship? does it have anything special to it or is it just a new unique ship body
class as in, fighter/exotic/shuttle/explorer/etc.
it's an explorer, no special abilities but it sure looks nice.
no, it doesn't, that mechanic is completely exclusive to exp16
you can indeed spawn boundary guardian, and with it a few boundary horrors will spawn, but the anomaly suppressor tech, the boundary strength failing mechanics, that's all gone
ahh kk
well in that case I'm not replaying after all.
Just gonna have to keep the water that made it back to my main save close and use sparingly
I need help on going back to planet tarum 95/E1
afaik it has no drop table, so it's like, spawning it just for fun
yeh
@strong dew check out the info below

a) Portal back (drink Elixir of Quicksilver for portal location, see post with glyph addresses <#nms-expedition message>);
b) Try to enter Space Anomaly and check teleporter for Other Player bases in Breach 3 system "Gaxaral" (probably bases named like "Exp16 - breach 3"; if none popped, exit+reenter Anomaly to connect to a different multiplayer instance)

just got limited summons until I'm out for good in this case
thats actually perfect because i was thinking of building an explorer next but now i can just use this
I was hoping to use the potion again to go back but it is not possible
just use one of the alternatives, you'll be fine 🙂
anything else just ask
As @remote thunder might recall I had a similar issue where I encountered a relic gateway while pulsing to the 3rd portal and ended up back in the starter system.
From there I spent several hours and did use a portal to get back to the 3rd breach system Galaxal? But it wasn't letting me use the portal properly to complete the 3rd phase.
I ended up having to use the teleport in the anomoly to a far off system to give me the option to restart the mission in the current system before the scripting was working right again.
That was a feature I didn't know about so I'm glad that @remote thunder advised me about it. The game has been fine since although I have noticed something else that I don't think was supposed to happen since then.
The 4th system has a dissonant planet on it, and I'm able to use Echo locators to find Sentinel ships. Those ships have warp drives on them so I can actually warp out the systems now if I wanted too LOL!
Crazy because the actual hyperdrive isn't available to purchase the plans for but I can purchase the upgraded drives if I wanted and install those into the sentinel ship I'm now actually using to complete the expedition with.
In fact, I could just warp straight to the 5th breach system but I'm sure it would really mess with the game scripting so I don't plan to do that. But the Sentinel ship had more storage for tech and cargo than my starter ship so that was why I took it.
One thing I did do was just hit up echo camps to get all of my tainted metal instead of hitting a freighter as I didn't feel like spending the money for it.
yeah, wheel barrows can sometimes drop it as well
basically the only other src for the mat
Does anyone know if you get access to space anomaly in expedition 2 beach head, and if you can do expedition from exiting save?
I frequently find it in the camps and got the required amount pretty quickly.
Also did the usual drop a marker on the camps to farm a few sentinel ships to rack up some money quickly.
that'd be a question for #nms-modding - as officially we can't run old expeditions; for a short answer, most likely no, expedition terminus was implemented a lot later, and yes you did get access to anomaly in exp2
There big rumor leaks from reputable sources that redux off all expeditions conning nov 7
Starting with beachhead and omega
The only expedition I would like to do is the one that awardede the Normandy as a Frigate as I wasn't playing the game back when that was going on. But even if they redid that expo I don't know that they still have the ability to have the Normandy as a reward for it still? Not sure if they had some agreement with Bethesda on that one or whatever.
the pattern so far has always been reruns at the end of the current year, and only of expeditions released earlier that same year
Is there a bug or something i dont get, I've been on 4 planets during storms, I can't find a single storm crystal???
So if this turns out to be true we have expedition terminal now, and if beachhead was 1st redo exp we could then in theory start from existing save?
But even if they redid that expo I don't know that they still have the ability to have the Normandy as a reward for it still?
if they ever did a rerun of exp2, you could most likely count on that. it'd be the exact same
@remote thunder they did redo the expo with the Golden Vector as the award last year though? That was another one I hadn't done that was from a year or so prior I thought?
•storm crystals: Urston (Breach 2 system: Temeferi X) (and others)

@soft pilot
Storm Crystals can be obtained from extreme hazard planets. Extreme hazard planets have Activated <Stellar Metal> (e.g. Activated Copper) in their resource list.
Exception: Lush biome planets (Star Bulb on resource list) do not spawn Storm Crystals.
Land, and start looking for the nearest Storm Crystal spawn. They will be scattered across the landscape.
Storm Crystals can only be interacted with and harvested during an extreme storm, but are easy to spot, and the on foot visor can assist as well.

True but just like trends with this last cursed expedition it lasted only two weeks so trends can always stop lol
ok thanx, so i have to go through a portal then
that was expedition 3, with a mixed set of rewards from past expeditions, and that indeed included golden vector for example, but not the rewards from exp3 itself; it was the first and only time (so far anyway) they did something like that
Rumor comes from data mined
data mined.. well, we've had data in game for years that was never used
In game files recently
You want to see it
that's fine, like i said, i chose to wait and see, because we've been wrong before
This would be great for new players!!!
i mean..
you know what that would mean?
there would be no reruns of exp12, 13, 14, 15 and 16.
that's never what they did
It just says It’s starting with those
a redux with mixed rewards from those expeditions? maybe? but liquidators? that was this year.
and what, rerun 8 expeditions?
doesn't make any sense to me
I dunno bro I’m just excited to of prospect of doing as many expeditions as possible
i do get that
i'm not saying anything you know against that
just doesn't make sense, knowing what we know, from past years
You dropping a major update worlds part 2 during holidays where potential major bugs happen while studio is off to be with their families
Make sense to you?
who said anything about worlds part 2?
Nolo
And others from studio
i don't buy this stuff tbh - i'll just sit tight and wait
hopefully, and i guess ideally, they could eventually give us all the ability to rerun past expeditions on demand/through exp terminus or something
Is it possible to play older expeditions that I missed ? Or once they are gone , they are gone forever ?
🙂
officially, if the devs rerun them

Expedition Info
Game mode explained:
Expeditions are an alternate time-limited, season-like game mode with a set of challenges rewarding exclusive items that can be claimed in any and all of your saves, in any game mode account-wide.
To get past expedition rewards, you must wait for possible future expedition re-runs (see past expeditions) or possible future
Twitch Drops campaigns featuring old expedition rewards (see past campaigns). You may also obtain certain rewards via other unconventional means including ship trading or using a "service bot" in the Creative Hub Discord. Additionally, PC players (
) can get past rewards via save editing or #nms-modding.

hold up. I think I have a problem. the game is describing the place with all the breach 4 names as rendezvous 3... is that why I can't get to the next rendezvous?
or maybe im confused
Perhaps the start system is the first breach, so rendezvous 1 is the second breach, etc? [just guessing tho]
That would be best solution vs having to do reruns at end of year for certain expeditions. Looking at trend 21-4 expeditions 22-4 expeditions 23-3 expeditions 24-5 expeditions… trend ? But why would they bring exp 16 cursed for two weeks if we already had 4 this year?
I didn't finish expedition yet but how to get expedition new ship on main save that is on normal mode
Why this expedition lasts only for 2 weeks anyways?
how long does this expedition go? i havent had a chance to play it recently
You are dead cuz it ends on Tuesday
I don’t know it hasn’t happened before Mybe something to do with h what’s the next update
bru
Its normaly 6 weeks
anyone?
ugh. just tried another system too, and i still cant go through the fourth portal
Im scared and im losing motivation cuz i didn't even start phase 5
confirm via glyphs: <#nms-expedition message>
calm down there's still almost a week left
i'd recommend deleting all elixirs of blood, all elixirs of quicksilver, disabling multiplayer, save, return to main menu. restart game. launch again, reselect breach 4 milestone, then wait for/force cycle hints lower right of the screen by pressing H or dpad left (spam it if needed), then follow exactly what the hint says to do.
And i can only play this friday, saturday and sunday
just like the others, it can be completed in a few hours
I can play only this weekend and friday
whats the difference between a breach and a rendezvous?
uhh. this portal doesnt match with any of those... 🤨
oh. its another planet's portal
if the last 11 glyphs match, you're fine
same thing, rendezvous has been the word used to refer to exp systems; aquarius and the cursed for example, called them something different (secret fishing spot, breach)
Guys did u copy new starship? If yes did u salvage copy or original ship? 'cause copy seems to be better
@remote thunder i would to say, big thanks for your time and helping other players you have to every single problems an option to solve it like a NMS wiki 😄 and also special thanks on the other guys who helped out! it is wonderfull ❤️ ❤️ so i think that must be said.
(sry for my bad english)
You don’t get any parts from salvaging the ship
It’s a bug that you can salvage it
Oh damn
you pick, it will end up in the same dialog 🙂
;- ok
It would be sick if we could build our milenium falcon style ship 😁
You can
glad you made it through and got all the goodies! 🙂 thank you for the words of appreciation, your english is doing just fine 🙂 have fun! and anything else just ask
With LEGO
Yeah i know 😑
Looking at you, overpriced almost 10k piece LEGO set!
Okay, back to ignoring this expedition
do keep anything datamined/unreleased to #nms-spoilers
( @opal vale )
Please keep datamined stuff in #nms-spoilers channel, this is not the best place for sharing content like this. 🙂
How far do I have to get to be able to call the anomaly?
if you follow the tutorial.. after the second warp...Iirc
Gotcha, thanks
After the first breach
in expedition
is there an easier way to find ancient ruins? because this building a signal booster to not get what you need then going there then going miles away is getting real old real fast
Yes, use charts bought from a cartographer
Buy like 5 charts, keep activating them and getting locations marked
Travel only to locations that say ruin or plaque
Dont clear out other markers
(^monoliths and buried ruins won't work)
wait do i get the ancient artifact site or ancient ruined site?
uhh. i cant seem to use the next map without going to the first site
just keep clicking it it should sort itself out
spam use
it's trying to mark the same type but will swap between them
ancient artifact should work if it's not a buried ruin
(should be a plaque, which will work)
quick question. can you summon your minotaur in the boss fight? cause if not i may need to upgrade my systems lol
sure. just spawn him first, then drink elixir of water

i give up on trying to kill the quads worked my way off to the maximum threat level killed couple of quads and still not registered as a kill, this mission is painful
let me try to give a little help. first off, you want only the big quad doggos, the small ones do not count.
ive killed couple of big ones with the crystals coming out of their backs
second, if you don't want to go through the waves (which can be quite tough), I would fly low in your ship and look for dissonant resonators; check for ones that have a large quad dog by them. some do, some don't.
i might try that, my main game character is so protected compared to this 1, easy to get damaged in this
you could then... put a base down.... go kill the quad with your method of choice... run away from the sentinels and get to wanted zero.... go to any other system (anomaly -> space station elsewhere), teleport back to your base, the quad should be back for another round
make sure you don't take out the resonator by mistake, or the quad will not be there when you return.
some people are using their ships to take out the quads, then fly diurectly aay from the planet to space (in the uncharted system, you lose any sentinel aggro once you get there, because no space cops, in he other system you'll need to pulse away or call in the anomaly and run there)
anyways, there's various ways to get at these dogs without getting fatally bitten
thanks will try that method
let us know how it goes!
ok im done with the expedition. do i have to claim the ship now? cause i did it on my main save
but i dont want to claim it on this fragment of my save and not be able to when i go back
you don't have to claim it in the expd version of the save... well maybe you do, in order to end the expedition. but you'll be able to claim it on the main save regardless
ok so if i deny it on my expedition portion of my save just to end the expedition, i wont lose my chance to get it?
is there exped currently
Yes! 8 more days
check the pins, lots of good stuff on the current one!
I wouldn't deny it, I claimed it on expedition from the expedition tab in the esc menu, I was told you need to in order to get it from the quicksilver vendor on main save
oh. well i dont have enough nanites :/
if you have scanned creatures and stuff, and not visited Helios at the Anomaly today to turn them in, you should, and then visit Ares too and get those also
if you went to Hijo and scanned the one exotic fauna there for the one milestone, don't forget to go to the fauna tab in discoveries tab for that planet and claim your 250 nanites (upper right)
if you still have some of the inverted mirrors that you got from a milestone, refine as many of those you want too, 95 nanites each
same for the hadal cores from a milestone
Wow you were right... It's one thing to smack around some interdimensional squidwards...
It's another to Accidentallt trigger a Broodmother fight while trying to hunt quadrapeds in as your being bombed and burned, and have them flying around like vultures taunting you
it worked right away thanks can do 1 at a time if i have to
the base pieces? yeah they are a nice little feature
I did my fishing by one, very handy.
It was so fun trying to fight a corrupted horde in a house with everything else going on, bless whoever set up the hunting lodge base on Rucand
Time for the final phase
bunch of folks have put up helpful bases this time around. I didn't see any myself (which is odd... maybe ods issues) but a lot of folks did and made use of them too
🚱
you will drink with them though.
But I don't want ro
They're weird and have no manners and never be quiet

fomo is a great threat!
Yup! XD
In the curse expedition, it is sad the game wants me to do a gore task where you have to gauge eyes of the hypnotic creatures. I stopped playing at this stage and I won't move forward at all cost.
I could check these tasks before going in
the abyssal horrors? there is another way to get the eyes, it is unreliable
but when you run your derelicts you might pick some up
and those do count.
I keep myself away from gore stuff
The seas and the stars demand sacrifice
It's not that gorey
alternatively it may be that if a player gifts you the 4 eyes, that would count (I have not tested this)
Remember to use something powerful if you do plan on stealing their eyes, blotcaster makes it quite a hackjob
Laser is the best I've found as it's precise enough to kill dormant ones at the exact right angle
I don’t think it has that level of “gore” but if gore isn’t your thing then NMS shouldn’t be either. It is rated under ESRB as 13+ — Animated blood and violence.
well there's plenty of nms that avoids the gore
I don’t kill animals, I don’t really like doing that. So I don’t do quests that ask for that
Although I don’t mind killing the little aliens
and abyssal horrors and stuff like that🤷♀️ They’re more silly/funny than anything, even the hungering tendrils lol (but everyone feels different and I respect their feelings about stuff)
How can I collect nanites and units I've been awarded with at the end of expedition?
If you are returning to a main save at the end of the expedition it should explain at the expedition terminus
Anything you don’t carry back I “think” is converted to equivalent units and nanites and carried over to your main save
That might be. I actually don't recall how many nanites I had before expedition
Yh so I checked nms for software updates and it's currently updating now
Did anyone else get an update or is it js me?
what platform are you on?
I did just have a hard crash
I wonder if that's what it was
Oof
Yh that's probably it
Full Tony Soprano
@vague hedge
No gifs in this channel please
I was busy save scumming for x class modules to use on the expo ship and they js disappeared along with my game getting black screened
Lol
yes, Gleam did us the favour a couple days ago, new role for those who finished up, go get it!
as to updates, switch got one a few hours ago bringing them to 5.21 along with everyone else

@vague hedge wow he is so gone your message was deleted. Spooky!
Hope Arty didn't have get smacked around by Quadrapeds either
The universe I made for him is nothing but Dissonance planets that don't have the ships
Does this fix the pet issue and update boundary herald visuals or is that yet to come?
pet is to come, it's in the experimental build yet
Shame
Also heard it destroys your game
I was rlly hoping to go around cerulean planets with my silly gelatinous chicken
It works for you?
It's for the best
Apparently players have reported their companion disappearing after hatching the bugger
At least it makes a cute Inventory pet like Mister Angler
I went to claim it and wasn't even given an egg to hatch
Lol
Thrusters on the herald look amazing though
Like they already looked rlly good beforehand but now it's js a lot cleaner
Afterglow is sadly gone (I think) but still a neat visual change
Comes with an indium drive, happy for that as its a pain in survival to get one together
Exited to snatch that when I leave
Already got the beautiful Squilliam Mask
🦑
Indium drives are relatively simple to get imo once you've got a freighter and scrapped enough modules
Can you change the colour or is it stuck in pink?
Oof
Welp at least it looks amazing
Made a black and red suit to go with it
Also the new thruster trail makes the worst possible glug noise
whats this
Are scrap dealers on space stations random now? So not every station has one?
Nvm found him
every non-abandoned space station has one, yeah
I noticed when I started the Expedition from my main save it did not start with my Standing with the lifeforms. If I go negative during the Expedition, does that transfer back?
When does this Expedition end?
nope, standing with npcs is specific to the expedition save; only if it were a new save would it carry over
and I can't type either. one more time

Too bad they don't stack in storage. Strange/frustrating that they do stack when in a Sell menu.
so you're saying we can go full pirate between now and thursday week and it's consequence-free?
Where do I even start? I mean obviously I'll start by paying 1400 nanites for the not-the-millenium-falcon / Hawk Tuah (what, that name didn't catch on from earlier?) but what next - do I just look for a big ship and start shooting at it till it explodes or they give me money?

I'm really fed up with the Expedition marathon we have nowadays...
expect something not an expedition near the time of the ps5 pro launch
dunno what...
The weird light pet is from the exp right
Just started the expedition. How do I avoid dying to the purple floating squids every few minutes since they don't stop chasing, and their projectiles seem to bypass walls?
See through skin glowing veins
Do y’all think this will be the last expedition?
once your ship is repaired, going to space refills the bar. you'll get blueprints for an elixir to drnk that also refills the bar.
Nah
in the meantime, keep moving.
Cursed expedition, we need to find 2 exotic creatures, we only have access to 3 space stations so far, only 1 exotic planet in those 3 systems, where do we find the 2nd exotic?
•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)
(from the pins in here)
The back of my boundary Harold is different too
I would assume switch got PC's experimental changes or its just not broken on switch anymore
Thanks
Gaxaral doesnt have a space station however
I spawned on an island with nothing on it, so I have to swim/fly hundreds of units away for resources, all while getting pursued and shot at. By the time I get to the resources, there's five squids trailing me, and every hit i take interrupts my resource collection.
nope it does not. if you didn't put a base computer down there, you could either check player bases at your currrent space station and see if any are there; use a portal the normal way to go back; continnue on to the next system and scan that exotic instead
ok so here's a solution for that: https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/1gcdur2/cursed_expedition_solution_to_island_problem/
Continue to next system, Ill try that, Thanks
that's why all three planets/systems with exotic critters are in the list
Better pic but no glow
Thanks
the basic idea there is, focus son getting the ship fixed with parts you have right there, then fly somewhere that's a decent sized land mass and get the rest done so you can get the heck out of dodge
(I also got the underwater by a tiny island spawn, and had to do that very process, heh)
do you have other blood elixirs in the inventory?
Nope
do you have the milestone pinned?
Yes
what does the tooltip in lower right say?
ok. and when you interact with the portal, what happens?
I would : make sure multiplayer is off. toss the blood elixir from the inventory, go to another planet in the sytem, save-exit-reload, makesure the milestone is pinned, and try again there
don't make anything until prompted by tooltips, don't interact until prompted, all that.
and let's see if that can unstick you
Aight
I thought getting planatory charts to find ancient ruins would work but dont seem to count, gonna have to rely on the pot luck of the signal booster
Any specific bait for the anomalous fish?
You can also use the radar power resonator for the exocrafts to specifically find ruins
oh good idea ive got the minotaur just have to equip and scan, try signal booster 1st see how it goes
get the ones for the alien sites (1 nav data per map). get 3. open all 3. go to the two sites that are not marked "monolith"
did not use any bait .. just make sure that you try to catch on it :
•anomalous fish: Tuwanl Akkan (REDACTED type, Breach 3 system Gaxaral) OR
Tarum 95/E1 (Frozen anomaly, Breach 3
the ancient ruins you went to, I am guessing they were the buried treasure ones, those are the wrong type
i have used 1 i went to the ruins and nothing or do i need to dig all the treasure up as well
no you don't dig up anything, those are the wrong type
get the alien site maps, not the ruin maps
ok will have a look next time
they cost one nav data each, not 3.
Ok thank you got a base at gaxaral so easy enough done.
a note that info on anomalous fish, and on finding those alien sites, and various other useful tips, are all in the pins in here, worth it to take a look, and share around too.

Okay I got the materials for the elixir back
Do I go back to the same portal?
Welp I tried doing it with the portal, same result
no. you want to be on a different planet after you have done multiplayer off and save-exit-reload
Ah
you want to have no blood elixir in the inventory before save-exit-reload I would say
then you want to make sure the milestone is pinned and follow the prompts precisely and we'll see
do literally nothing before it tells you, and hopefully the game will sort itself out
I'm going back to the dissonant planet because it's the only one with a portal other than the scaly one
Can I bring back an egg from a companion I found on a planet? Or is that bugged too?
sorry? all the planets in the system should have portals
Wait what
every planet has one portal.
I only see 2
put down a base on that planet, go back after finishing expedition and tame it then. Can't bring back companion eggs
we want the game to prompt you so that you get aportal on a different planet marked
Does the last system have an exotic animal
got it, thanks.
so go to a different planet and try there
It keeps saying there is but I can’t find the damn thing
Ahh I see
•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)

so go to Duprae and find it

have a look, lots of useful info in there
we're trying to start the whole process over from scratch, see, and hope it doesn't screw up this time
I mistakenly claimed the egg, which I know it’s bugged (I’ve seen the announcements)
I just stuck it in storage for rn, until the patch comes out. That should be ok right? It’s mostly an issue if you try to hatch it or get it on another save, iirc? So if I just leave it alone, and don’t finish the expedition formally, hopefully there’ll be an update that will resolve this since experimental has a patch for it I believe I’ve read (I should’ve paid more attention to what I was claiming😅)
Alternatively I could use my restore point from like a half hour ago, that might set it back before I claimed but if it’s ok in storage untouched I’d rather just wait for the update if it’s ok left alone
best to putit in exocraft or ship you dn't use, and forget about it, then it's fine
the fix is in the experimental branch so hopefully Soon (tm)
It’s in a storage cube on base
storage cubes aren't as good. this is on your regular save now, rigth? just shove it in an alt ship or exocraft
It’s a regular save, but I’m still in expedition and wasn’t going to exit until the issue was resolved
oh I see
then fine, just be careful
actually why not shove it in the crap explorer they gave you, and use the boundary herald to get around>? better yet
ok
what did the tool tip say to do when you landed on the planet?
Oh yeah I could put it in the other ship. I have a copy of my exotic ship I’m using. Just have to not forget I put the egg in the explorer😅
it's the only way to get the game to do the right thing here
the tooltip, not the log. trust me
should be marked on screen
this, I don't know. how many portal markers do you have??
Two
Doesn’t matter- any portal u use will work
That's the point
It just shows u the closest one
None do
try them both one at a time then
O ok
if neither work, it's possible to try in another system. I am winding down for the evening though and preparing to go into lurk mode (having a very late dinner)
if neither works, let us know
Hey btw did the egg bug get fixed?
Okay
Alright

11/10 best expedition
Bonus point because of blood being a thing
just got to wait for the next public patch, @gaunt path
already fixed on steam exp branch, so shouldnt take long now, but no way to know when ofc
after breach 5, trying to head to coordinates? land 1000u away, walk back
No
I'm at breach 3
Like the third system
same principle
land away from all the bases, comm balls, etc etc
nice
take flight to another area, land and retry

There was an update for switch, any word on that?
not seeing anything on patch notes, but possible
Is there any fast method to get alien sites?
Since the cartographer doesn't seem to work
how do i unlock hyperdrive? it say blueprint memory lost...
it does work. buy 4 alien charts, use them all, spam use through errors, visit non-monolith and non-buried ruin markers, pick the seek help with language option
you don't - exp16 is about portal traveling, each phase has a milestone that overrides a portal to get player to the next system
Ah I see
I got a monolith
O ok
it wont ever be able to mark another monolith until you clear first one, effectively saving charts when you're after a specific POI
which planet in phase five has the exotic
the moon, with gold on resource list
i see okay how do i find exotic planet which exilir do i need to offer at portal??
exotic biome planets (or moons) always have gold on resource list (suitable planets in breach3, 4 and 5)

...require the right type of Elixir of Blood per phase:
Phase 1: 
Phase 2: 
Phase 3: 
Phase 4: 
Phase 5: 
Be sure to have selected the right "Breach" milestone,
before interacting with the portal marked by
Elixir of Quicksilver.

What is the best way to farm nanites for my multitool and ship from my main save?
bring sus packets tech/arms or salvaged glass
@brave echo also see <#nms-expedition message>
While you're blasting arachnobots in your ship, shoot the big inverted mirror thingies they're guarding too and refine their drops.
Already on the second phase
anyway you can get nanites, use it - there's a milestone that will rewrd 1.5K
@brave echo you can refine radiant shards, runaway mould, tainted metal, larval cores, hadal cores, fleshy rope, vile spawn - with the exception of tainted metal, all resources obtainable from planets you will go to for other milestones.
doesnt help
im in space scanner all planets even i cant hypedrive all i see is barren planet, planet of light, desolate planet, thats all i can see here
i **told you already **
exotic biome planets (or moons) always have gold on resource list (suitable planets in breach3, 4 and 5)
"planets OR moons" - "planet of light" has gold
oh? let me see
yes..
So im following this guide by Aiming4gaming on reddit / youtube. Im tryiong to get to the exotic planet in the 4th rendevous system, i need to get to the planet Dupraie T47. I see it in discoveries, but i CANNOT for the life of me find it flying around. Any tips for finding a small planet in a ystem?>
system
i see it now
Dupraie is in breach 5
•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)
Hijo 13/W8, breach 4
Yeah, regardless, thats where im at. is breach 5. i see it in discoveries and all the othe planets as well
just cant find dupraie
Any tips for finding a small planet in a ystem?>
@analog dagger
thanks you @remote thunder
What should i bring on the expedition?
Bro i aint looking at that
then don't

You have a week
Thank you ! :)
Oh my b
No worries !
Not really a spoiler since they aren't really crabs ^^
Yeah the corrupted sentinels
@remote thunder i found 1 out of 2 exotic creatures that were crawling around the underground... i cant find other one what is it?
🦀
They're still hard to kill
Unless you're on Todai 63/Z1, there is only one exotic creature on that planet
i see
Where to go for the second one:
- 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)
I was able to find 3 exotic creatures
On Todai, yes
Two where moving buildings
It's so weird seeing the buildings move, but it's also really cool
The moving buildings are great
It's cool
im on hijo 13/W8 planet
I'd either teleport back to Gaxaral via a base, or wait till you're in breach 5 Umardag and then find Dupraie for the second critter
pause, discoveries, see planet view/fauna: 1/1 species
breach 5 has another planet like that (moon actually)
how do i go to breach 5?
Same way you went to your current system
iow, you don't have to complete genetic glitch in this system; continue progressing and completing other phase 4 milestones to get to breach 5
oh ok next is float over the deep ocean, collect 4 hypnotic eyes, eliminate corrupt quadrupeds 0/8
in deep water and glassy stare can be done on any planet with water; you don't have to complete aracnophobia now if you're not feeling up to combat just yet (you'll need a dissonant planet for this one)
What happens to a save if you don't finish an expedition? Is it different for new saves vs existing ones?
dissonant planet? not desolate planet? i guess i dont have dissonant around in mean while ill go to water
is it ok to claim the egg now?
not yet. Only fixed in the Steam Experimental branch.
after exp end:
- new game: cannot do more milestones or claim any; a forced conversion to normal mode happens
- existing save: any run started from existing save should be progressed at least until access to anomaly is unlocked (exp16: leave starter system), in order to cleanly finish. if not, options/return to primary is still available
well fak
corrupted sentinels only spawn on planets with "dissonance detected" on resource list
i have egg in inventory :-:
don't hatch it
ohhh
so its fixed for pc people?
wait for the next public patch, it will be fixed then @oblique gazelle
for players on steam experimental branch only
switch isn't affected atm
found it "dissonance " wish me luckheh
so if i were to switch to the experimental
Switch getting the patch early was a welcome suprise
The way they roll two patches into one for switch is unique
large spiders (aka quadrupeds) are often found guarding dissonance resonators. they can be worthy enemies.
So since i cant transfer my companion egg once done the expedition, do i get one on my main save?
some strategies: minotaur exocraft with cannon tech, blasting them from the air with rocket launcher (don't blow up the dissonance resonator)+save+reload, unlocking paralysis mortar multitool tech and keeping them stunned while you empty clips on them
tough
goto quicksilver shop, claim expedition rewards

Where do I find a Transmission Tower?
is this for the ancient ruin milestone?
Yeah
buy 4 alien charts from station cartographer , use them all, spam use through errors, ignore monolith markers, only visit non-monolith and non-buried ruin markers, pick the seek help with language option
@quartz trail ^
Thank you so much!
transmission towers would be found with commercial charts, but this is faster, and no guarantee that a transmission tower would mark a suitable ruin either
Ok, thanks for the advice. Makes sense
remember, ignore monolith marker, spam use chart through errors till it goes through
I'm gonna try it out. Thanks
Alright, so i ended my expedition, i went to the expedition terminal, but hteres nothing for me to collect there? i put a bunch of materials in there and then clicked "End Expedition". It then went through a loading screen and i was back at the anomaly on my regular save, but when i go to the terminal, there is nothing there and it says "Resume Expedition" however that button when pressed does nothing.
i completed float in the deep ocean, where is hypnotic eggs? are they in crystal sulpide or the armoured clam?
weird - if you goto quicksilver shop/claim expedition rewards option, do you see the exp16 phase and final rewards there?
neither: from abyssal horrors
Yes, i can claim all hte final rewards, just nothing in the expedition terminal.
weird, i'd try to resummon anomaly
i dont see abyssal horror
may need to explore, move to a different area
okay
make sure that the expedition milestone for the horros is selected as well or else target sweep wont work
@tender veldt target sweep visor mode isn't available when that milestone is selected?
this did not work as well
i have a yellow icon on the expedition terminal and everything. sucks i had alot of mats i transfered
Weird glitch, after a restart and a resummon of anomaly i could go back to my expedition. im gonna try the transfer again here
I’m doing the expedition and need to go through 2nd portal but it needs a code what’s the code
When does this expedition end?
not sure
No code keep the mission selected and use the right blood
7 days
From now? Wow that’s a quick one
couldnt find anywhere on Rucand planet for abyss horror
Yes, two weeks, and apparently another update directly when this is done, to coincide with ps5 pro release
tried to scanner the ocean with ship they wont show i have to walk and find it fly out and landto different spot with ocean on same planet still unable to find, so different planet?
Is in deep water broken
no - they're on every planet
It’s not working for me on psvr2
I’m definitely swimming and I’m definitely above deep water
ok going different planet
switch to non-vr for that one and for serenity
Make sure you don't have the terrain manipulator active. If swapping doesn't start the timer, switch to 2d.
You're looking to harvest eyeballs? If target sweep doesn't find them, swim a few hundred u and try again. They're plentiful but they need deepish water
