Hrm. Doesn't it usually end around 8/9am EST?
1-2pm UK is what I usually expect but it's 11am for this one. Probably a factor of the end of summer time and the gap between the UK/Ireland and US "fall back" which happens later.
im confused how what am i supposed to do to get to the randezous point in the expedition?
Blood sweat and tears
But it don't have to be your blood

do I have to craft the quicksilver stuff every portal I go through now?
Quicksilver to find a portal
The latest blood yoy unlock to rub on the controls
...
?
Ive been trying to find 2 alien ruins with the signal booster but i have done it 12 times with nothing? Am i doing something wrong?
dont use the signal booster, go to soacr station and buy 6 anicent artifact charts
spam it until you get a anicent ruin
Ive been at it for like 20 minutes
DO NOT go to other location (aka monolith, plaque)
if the pin is still there it won't give you another same location, you wont get the wrong one twice
Alien cartographic data?
I actually tried using the signal booster to find a ruin like it said, never happend lol
One down one to go now
yeah signal booster is dumb it just find whatever POI is near you
in one of the past expedition it used to be able to pinpoint specific POIs but doesn't seem to work here
ive been staring the night sky for a long time and im not getting anything
The bar full?
the purple one yes
Mp off?
disabled
Mark task
maybe game feel like its not night yet
fly to another part of the planet maybe
You need a clear view of the stars. Bad weather and clouds can mess it up sometimes. I had the big worm fly in my view once and reset it...
How do i do the face of glass mission?
During launch day shenanigans I got it from staring at the sun lol
just do the previous milestone first and go through the portal
i dont know how i got it but it started when it was cloudy and covered all stars
What planet type do I need to catch "anomalous" fish on?
let me start by thanking people here for the help but i got an idea now. i found some abyssal horror's i'll mark them so any one who sees my bases just come by and draw the eye's to you and i'll attack it ๐
I think you just have to catch them on any planet when your purple meter is 50% or below.
I looked at the pins and it says to fish on the [REDACTED] planet
Gunna try that and see what happens
Yeah that did it, just fish on the [REDACTED] planet.
I think that's where I might have done mine, I found a fishing base someone built and used that
I'll ask this in here because you guys might know a little bit more
It's there a way to find the portal addresses?
I saved the address and it's not letting me see it
Do you have all the glyphs unlocked?
yes
You can buy nav charts that will give you portal locations if you need to find one.
Yeah I have a portal and I copied the address to A system that I needed to go back to but I cannot see it and I do not know how to go back to the previous system I was in
Hmm I guess I dont understand. You go to the portal, enter the glyphs, and walk through the portal
What is it that you're not seeing?
if the previous system had a space station itt shoud be saved in your terminus network
Okay it gives you an option to copy an address for a portal so that you can enter in the address to go back to that system right I copied an address of a system I was in and I'm trying to go back to it from a different system which you cannot do without taking a screenshot which I did not know so I'm asking if there's an way to get an address if you do not have it because it doesn't tell you because the get address doesn't actually add to anything
it does not
Luckily I was able to find a screenshot on Reddit for the System
But I had to Dig deep
It's kind of annoying that the show address doesn't add it to your known systems and let you access different addresses that you've discovered
you can go into the discovery tab, pin the planet as a wonder, then go to the wonders tab and you'll have glyphs for it. but if it's an expedition system, the glyphs for all of those are pinned in here
cool thanks
i did that and they are not showing up for me so either I'm doing it wrong or it's a little buggy on my side
Just to hopefully save myself like 7 hours of looking for planets is there one that has deep enough water to do the in deep water milestone the three planets I've already tried with the mining technique only go down about 30
Can i take back loot i found in the expeditions to normal mode?
yes if you started with your normal save
How do i do that?
after finishing the expedition, go back to the expedition terminal
you can put items and tech back
the currency transfers automatically
Cool cool
Does anyone have any tips defeating corrupt quadrupeds? It's taking me like 20 minutes to kill one of them T_T
Shoot the small flying guys first
they heal each other
or just get a minatour and install the minatour cannon
it shreds them
Yeah I've been shooting the healers but wasn't sure what multi-tool upgrade was good against them since I didn't research a minotaur on this save yet
Use the Paralysis Mortar. Keeps them stunned and prevents healing.
Check bases from the space station portal. Lots with names like "Deep Water".
I got mad enough to research a Neutron Cannon and got 3 S class upgrades (the first 3 space stations have them). They are pretty trivial after that.
tip: you can actually create your own deep water by removing the sea floor with terrain manipulator
Is it worth it to try and bring back some of elixirs to normal mode? Also what does the elixir of water do?
at the end of the expedition elixir of water spawn a boss fight
afaik elixir of quicksilver can locate portal for you in normal save
so you might bring some back
i have trouble finding the Portals via the Elixirs. The notes say to craft the Elixirs and that should be sufficient to show me where a portal is? Is that correct?
But when I craft I do not see any Portal icon appear when I do a scan. So I am quite confused.
craft elixir of quicksilver, then consume it to reveal portal
This is a very iffy suggestion because it did not work four times in a row
you have to make sure that you're in a deep water source to begin with and then it works
The four times that I tried this I was in Normal water and it only went down 30 meters after digging
Even tried it once in an ocean and it still didn't work so I spent time looking for an area that was by default like 40 meters and then was able to dig the additional space
Also okay for the ancient ruins are they a specific ruin type or any that is found by the ancient chart?
it askes for the this type

you can buy 4 anicent artifact charts and spam it until you get one
ah ok
Is it worth checking them all out anyway for the ancient keys or are those not really worth it?
don't bother going to other site
just ignore them
the type of site you get from charts won't repeat as long as you don't go to them
So only go to anicent ruin site
Are the ancient Keys useful for anything?
it is only used to open the large chest in the dig site
no use otherwise
and every dig site has enough keys already so no point hauling them
Also I don't know what you're talking about by the way when you search for a ancient site it doesn't tell you what type it is so you have to go down to the planet? Am I missing something?
dig site and ruin site are different
the milestone ask for anicent ruin which is an intact building on the ground
not the dig site with keys and a chest
It's still just says ancient ruin when you use the chart so I don't know how you're supposed to tell the difference if it doesn't say what it is ?
Did you buy the one that cost 3 nav data?
mhm
iirc the 3 nav data one lead to a dig site
there is a chart that cost 1 only
which could lead to a monolith, plaque or ruin
this is what I mean by only going to the ruin
I think the plaque I found had an icon that said "Alien Artifact". Anyway, you could just fly close, and if it looks like the ruin, don't go in.
Okay so then that should be mentioned somewhere because even the guide posted in here says to buy the ancient charts
ok
Do your ship inventories transfer after you leave an expedition or should you move everything into the Expedition storage?
anything not put in the expedition terminal will be lost
their value will be calculated and add to your main save as units
Wait okay so everything I've been Gathering with me being like Oh I can move it to my save was not the case XD
Okay so I'm just curious is this a companion or what's up with the Sentry
it is part of the Trace of Metal questline
kinda of a little drone that follows you around
nothing to do with the expedition
weird
Okay so is it like a permanent thing or until you finish this trace of metal quest line because I don't have a quest line anywhere related to that I believe
weird
check if you have this item in your inventory?
https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Sentinel_Flare
you can turn it on and off
it started following me during the expedition I wasn't given a quest line it was just sitting outside of one of the portals and I don't have that item
very weird indeed
idk what it is doing here
Thank goodness, finally finished this expedition
I saved the ruins one for last, by far the easiest
This starship is so cool, getting millennium falcon vibes
and if 5sh hours not bad considering someone said earlier that it took them over 8
Its the damn rng. And Good luck fishing a hundred times while fighting these pissed off jellyfish
Pissed off jellyfish?
Those things that constantly spawn the whole expedition
Damn annoyance i tell you. Good thing you can dip into space to recharge
Anytime I dipped below like 60% I would refill it
The storms were annoying because half of them would cause it to lose like 10% a second
Probably overreacting but still ^
Thank goodness it was only corrupted sentinels, you can find them at least. Imagine trying to get 8 regular quads to spawn
Just go on a killing spree in a high Sentinel planet
personally i didnt find the jellyfish too annoying sure they kinda got on your nerves when you were under 50% but they didnt do a lot of damage or anything
killing spree.
Heck no. The sentinels hit so much harder here and theres so many of them. Its the healing enemies that are the real pain, they hide and are so small.
I just got lucky and had an A-Class weapon spawn at the first space station
The atlas staff came in clutch tbh. Stun damage plus the splitter gun, turns quadrupeds into jokes
You can even overpower the healing bots because the stunning will hit them too
Finished the Event
Why are there messages that pop onto the screen
That or you need to find the secret end mission to the event
The voices don't really end til you've gotten to the final mission and packed up
I honestly thought the voices I saw on the screen were in my head
So I checked here just to make sure
Speaking of
I have opinions about that last mission in #nms-spoilers
Man I really wanna get the millennium falcon ship but my autism says we're getting our serotonin from stardew valley and not no mans sky
And I'm pretty sure I only have a week to get it

Heck
Choose which time to start carefully
It takes two days with breaks to get everything squared away...
It's even easier with the Bases layed out at each goal...
You could do it in one day but it's craaaayze
Bruhhh is the ship even worth it
It's so pretty
It's like a UFO
๐ธ
The cockpit makes you feel like your hopping in a tank
The cosmetics are soooo worth it too
@vague hedge
No gifs in this channel please
You can dress up as a Mindflayer
its also an s tier ship with a solid bunch of upgrades if you care about that
The problem is my brain doesn't want me to lock in for it
Someone in here got it done in like 4 hours
hi, on last mission , against the guardian, i messed up last night because i ran away and for some reason i was not able to call the guardian again, no matter how many elexir of water i drank... What am I missing? And can I call it from anywhere on the planet?
Check exp tasks
ok. getting tired of looking. wtf is the scrap dealer?
under stairs to guild envoy in space stations
Sneeky little faecium eh?
@wraith junco yes, i can check expedition task like anyone else and it does not answer the questions i had ๐
maybe the task has to be the active one?
Is the guardian task completed
no it's not, it's back at ''drink water elexir ๐
Is it marked
last night when i played, no matter how many times i drank the elexir it would not bring back the guardian
i managed to call it last night but i was not ready for what i had to deal with, so i ran away
then i went and got ready, drank water elexir, no guardian, drank elexir 3 times, still no guardian
Combat would probably be easier if I could find a MT that wasn't always C class
I did, at least, portal to a pirate controlled system so I'm now good on nanite clusters
@unkempt kraken Whats the difference between alien and ancient ruin?

! where to find alien ruin
Use alien charts from cartographer
i did. Took the gravitano balls and the artifact from the chest. But it didnt count towards progress.
ok it worked this time, expedition finished ๐
Use more. There are diff types of alien buildings
Sorry, i used ruins charts. This time i took aliens charts
That Herald shit is pretty cool, I like the cockpit alot
now that i own it in expedition, will it automatically be in my collection once i get back to my main save game:?
Set herald as your active ship in exp. Go to settings and chose go back to main save. U can copy last used ship in exp from exp terminal on main save. So u dont have to use up the qs shop redeem.
U can copy it multiple times but trick only works when exp is active.
ok thanx
you can also redeem it in any save from the QSC
yeah it'll be my active ship as i have multiple infiltrators to recycle before i go ๐
and i still can get 2 more
QSC?
oh ok quick silver
quicksilver synthesis companion
so i will go fetch the other 2 infiltartors i can get, then off to recycling
infiltrators?
wanted to transfer my modules from infiltartor to Herald but not enough slots
Interceptor
grr. looks like I'll need to hit the derelict freighter maybe 2 more times. that's irritating.
is it just my luck or are derelict the only place that oyu can get living slime?
ooo;s. totally misinterpreted breach reward. =)
Why do you need living slime? Derelict freighter is needed for tainted metal task. U get additional tainted metal for logs that u sell to scrap dealer
how do i find planets infected with titan worms?

cos I misread the breach reward and thought you /needed/ slime for it rather than it being a reward. :)
Whatโs the criteria for an โexotic creatureโ
Glitch planet animal/ robotic animal
Man I hate derilict freighter missions
sell the manifest and log to the scrap dealer
should get you just enough tainted metal
Still donโt have enough
Wait I donated one of them to the guild by accident noooo๐ญ
they give you couple hundreds for each iirc
I haven't played in quite a while, and i am getting lost in the new space stations. wth is the scrap dealer hiding out?
200 for crew log and 300 for captain logs. So need to find like 100 on derelict
Thanks, i found him ๐
Teleport back to the starter system and do that derelict. It's really easy + loads of storage containers for chances at tainted metal. Got 900 tainted in one run.
Every derelict on exp route gives enough imo
Starter system's isn't infested tho. Just jellies.
I did in uncharted i think. Only bots there
Now that I'm done with this expedition, I have the urge to mod the files and do some past expeditions but i wonder if i can do that while this expedition is still active.
U probably need to do it totaly offline
Thereโs usually a rerun of expeditions over the holidays, too.
i know that much, what i dont know is whether i can still do it while the CURRENT expedition is still going.
The tutorial only states that the expedition tab would be empty when i do it so what happens if i did it while the expeidtion tab isnt empty?
Who'd wait that long? I would much rather speedrun through the last 14 expeditions on my own terms and speed.
Well, I guess I would. But feel free to play the game how you like.
I respect your stance and opinion on the matter.
Enjoy!
Oh oh, bk said to do the derelict on the starter system, its so easy it only has so green jellyfish creatures. Really easy layout too.
Oop, someone already said that haha
Welp, it took until today, but I finally found and purchased a freighter ... they are pretty rare in this expedition, seems like
It's ugly, but A class ๐
Someone set up an idium farm and it really helped my expedition
I needed gold, found a gold mine in the teleporter. People are great here.
If you need gold while travelling, grab some 'living pearls' and put them in a refiner - quick gold supply ๐
(refine gold into pyrite if needing pulse engine fuel)
how do i find planets infected with titan worms? ive checked 3 planets already and i have no idea how they look or how to find them
@gleaming mortar ^
ty
Ohh the new role is available
Out of curiosity, is asteroid farming the only way to get get gold early for the blood exlixr?
hey, whats the best way to do the arachnophobia step on phase 4 ? i only found one in a solid 30 min, maybe im doing smth wrong
nah, for example, could farm buried mineral formations for glowing crystal (which can drop magno-gold or grantine, both of which refine to gold)
how are you trying to find them?
i look for corrupted drone with my scaner but its always sentinels
one time a quadrupede popped but thats all
keep trying to locate resonators - some of them will be guarded by large spiders. alternatively, you could unlock and build minotaur, and unlock+install radar array tech on it: this will let you scan for secure buildings, which on corrupted planets should sometimes have large spiders guarding them
also
@sacred hatch escalating wanted level to wanted level 3 will also spawn them
okay, thanks
yeah but theyre not corrupted right?
if done on a dissonant planet, they will be
if you changed nothing in difficulty settings
ill try that, thank u very much
paralysis mortar and voltaic amplifier multitool techs combined with your primary weapon of choice can help you make short work of them, in relative safety - a stunned enemy can't attack back, but takes +21% damage from you because of voltaic amplifier. minotaur can also be unlocked and used for combat (get minotaur cannon ofc), and from the air, a ship with hovering capabilities would work perfectly too.
hey all, when does this expedition end?
it said "a couple weeks" but i havent had a chance to log in and look at the exact timer

My egg hatched ๐
confirmed fix! ๐ฅณ
yep, I was able to make my pet green (I use a green theme on my char)
I will name her Mimi
would this suffice for the expedition?
took Pf because i don't have much ferrite so i'll just refine that
Oof you don't need gel, it should have stayed di hydrogen
ik, but it's how i bought it off space stations
i'll just refine into di-hydrogen
Remember to open up some space or sacrifice open space to bring stuff back cause your get ALOT of artifacts and treasure to take home
alrightt
I got 8+ Artifacts on my run
that's nice ๐
There's also 5 unique items
please don't spoil!!
afaik only elixir of quicksilver and elixir of water will have any sort of function in non-exp saves, quicksilver ofc being the actual useful one
dust can just be bought from trade terminals, no worries
killing the quadrupeds is going to be the death of me
suggestions: <#nms-expedition message>
a stunned enemy can't attack back
bonus: get voltaic amplifier to synergize with paralysis mortar. then a stunned enemy can't attack back, but also takes +21% damage from you because of voltaic amplifier.
stupid that we cant change Colors from the Exp. ship or it could be so cool when the expedition 16 ship has the fog lightning while standing like the Omega Ship
Still waiting for a ship body shop update tbh
Need one badly, especially after a ship of mine turned an ugly white when my save transitioned from an Expo
yes a little bit more Coustomize could be nnice
I just wanna stick decals on my ships...
it exist ships where it looks very cool when they are floating over the ground when you outside of the ship but not on every ship, let me the choice where i chose floating and where i chose normal landing feet
does anyone know what the song at the end of the exp is called?
will the recipe for the quicksilver elixir also be available in normal saves?
iirc, it's supermoon
started from existing save? no (you may craft elixir of quicksilver to bring back to main though)
nice ty
so it's a bring as much as you can back kind of thing
correct, when started from existing; only new saves can keep the blueprints, since that save will convert to a normal mode save once exp is completed
when is the current expedition end?
@patent sage
Hello, how do you find abnormal fishes ?
check <#nms-expedition message>
Just wrapped this up. I give them credit, for an off the cuff halloween expedition, it was very unique
Which breach doesn't have a Space Station?
Ty so much !
breach 3, Gaxaral
thanks
I just want to take exsisting ships to the fabricator and apply other paints on them. All of them.
I also wouldn't mind to have the stealth paints on my armor as well.
And multitools.
and exocrafts
each expedition should add some extra paints as rewards.
oops, off topic. sorry for that.
Big shoutout to the people building the bases in the expedition
You got that right. Helped tremendously
Why does Temerifi show as Rendezvous 1, when Samadano is Phase 1/Breach 1?
Does rendezvous 1 always mean the 2nd system?
samadano is the starter system
temerifi is the breach 1 system, iow, where you get after breaching out from starter system
"your first breach"
in phase two, you get "breach two" milestone, which breaches out of "rendezvous2", and into "rendezvous3", Gaxaral
What date does the expedition end on?

I'm further confused by this in the pins then.
where is the scrap dealer located in ss?
below the stairs
close to the faction guy
and the map guy
(when you leave the ship and looking inside the station, is to your right
ty!
where did you find this?
in the pins of this channel.
Thanks
ok i see. so, read it like. "breach 1" - as in, "breach boundary" milestone from phase 1, "uses
for elixir of blood", done in starter system; "breach two", the system in which you'll do the "breach two" milestone, from phase two, the first system after the "first breach" (in the expedition lore, get it?), which is "rendezvous 1" (as if it were a previous expedition,that was the term used, rendezvous, for each of the main systems) in the teleporter.
starter system isn't a rendezvous, iow - it's exactly just that, the starter system.
which is why temerifi shows as rdv1 in the teleporter
got it
but in progression/lore, temerifi is where we breach for the 2nd time, "breach two" milestone, from phase 2.
what other planet here is also exotic?
all planets that have gold on resource list are exotic aka weird biome
said other because thats the one i already got
only had 1 animal ๐ฆ
should have said so to begin with
mb then; leave milestone behind, progress rest of milestones in this phase, goto the next system, there's another exotic biome planet there

Stealth paint is best. I'm sure someone out there doesn't like it, but...

Do you need to go to multiple derelict freighters for the metal ? I couldn't find 600 on the first freighter
Sell your findings to scap dealer yet?
No not yet. I collected 446/600
Do that and you'll have enough.
Oooh okay thanks
Boys, if I put free bird on loop do you think I can finish this whole expedition in one night?
yeah
guides say you can do expedition in 4 hours

It may be too late to add that Iโve already begun the expedition with nothing

what does elixir of glass do on a normal save?
i have seen this reported before. i couldn't reproduce on pc with multiplayer disabled.
to be clear, i went to scrap dealer, bought coords for 5M, teleported back to starter system station because it's an easy layout there, and ran it (i had multiplayer disabled since i began the save, basically)
bones, storm crystals, buried mineral formations, buried caches, the bio and terrifying samples from other milestone rewards should help ๐
I also found at least 2 crashed ships I was able to salvage to increase storage on my explorer I started with and gain some money that way. But yeah..the bones are my next method until I got the system where I could actually find an scrap sentinel ships. That is the quick way to get money.
zzz.....
i still didnt finished the expedition
cause i was passing some items to my friend
Did you pay to upgrade the starter explorer to S class?
no
thats the expedition reward ship
Did the companion egg reward bug get fixed yet or nah?
yes, with 5.22 update
ok man
leave this milestone behind, move on to the next one in this phase; when you get to the next system, there will be another planetary body with gold on resource list, with another exotic creature to scan
thanks
yep, and hatch

Will i need the bones i got at the start of the expedition later? They're absolutely clogging my inventory
yeah normally they are meant to be sold but since this is an expedition I thought they might be required in the end
Idk if the ones u take to exp counts
This happened to me during the exped
I didnt take them with me from the main save, i got them in an exp mission
(Normie sentinels on a dissonant planet)
If u got the bones task done u can sell them
thx
usually due to modified difficulty settings (on foot combat)
What happened after the expedition end? I made base somewhere on the curse expedition im wondering if i can tp to that place
After i return to my main save
is there any way around me having to pay 5mil units for the emergency beacon thingy?
before I go off bone hunting 
The green item? to find derelict freighter?
Iirc its 5M too
At anomaly that groot like guy would give you a free one (according to the notification when you arrived at the Anomaly)
But based on my experience he wont even talk to you if you want money just sell sentinel ships
Or bones
A single C rank sentinel ship is like 15m in an instant
U will get treasures for other tasks . They are like 1mil+
Derelict? You cant land on regular destroyed freighter
Just sell bones if theres no dissonance planet
how do i go to the next system in order to scan exotic animals?
do the objectives in order
how do you mean, have done the objectives, and am bieng asked to scan, have scanned 1 but the second creature is not in my system, i read in previose comments that you can go the next system to complete this expedition objective
You get to the next system, the same way you got from the previous system
alternatively I think you can buy ship with hyperdrive
by completing the objectives to move to the next system

I actually copied my ship over and never discover the first ship apparently don't have hyperdrive
lol
ohh i didnt know you could do obejectives in different order
On this one in general you do in order, if you do I advise putting base computers down in each system in case you have to go back, especially the system with no station
I did the animal one by accident as I wanted gold, and went to the planet with 2x mech fauna
is it possible to get all 600 Tainted Metal from one derelict?
Dont forget to get logs and sell it for aditional tainted metal
Those combined sell for 500 tainted metal. So you have to find minimum 100 in storage crates to do it in one run.
tysm
appreciated
are you not able to trade with the space station npcs?
Yes, you can. But note that the third system is uncharted and won't have a station.
oh idk what it was but when i tried to interact with the npcs in the starter system it would instantly kick me out and they would just disappear
Okay, that is odd.
heya, the pin is still showing info about the egg bug from the 28th October. Has it been fixed now?
Yes
cool thanks!
when does expedition end - oh nov 7th ok
how do i collect the abysmal horrors? i keep dying trying to get them
do i shoot them or collect them?
So this is my first expedition. Is there usually another one which follows straight after this or will there be a gap before the next one?
For Abyssal Horrors, have your Boltcaster ready (or preferred Weapon) and blast them in the eye before they lock on to you. Like start shooting as soon as they start to lean in your direction!
Then grab the eye before it rolls away and or disappears.
For anyone that needs a good ship or one to scrap for money...
Rendezvous 3 system (Rocangh Station) on planet Rucand at coordinates +6.79,-162.90 there's an A-Class Sentinel ship for grabs. Turn your multiplayer off before you go there else it'll probably be gone already.
Thanks

i would suggest disabling multiplayer in options/network settings, save, restart game. then try again. was able to do mine just perfect, no issues at all. used the emergency signal scanner in the starter system (went back yep, i had visited the station so was a teleport away), lots of lootables inside, only jellyfish as enemies, got secure credentials on the first log snippet (lucky me ๐ ), all went well basically. had multiplayer disabled as well/i suggested.
sooo.. I discarded my reward decorations thinking that i unlocked the recipe but I didnt.. is it possible to get the bubble cluster still?
bubble cluster is a quicksilver shop unlockable - are we talking about this bubble cluster? https://app.nmsassistant.com/catalogue-item/build432
hi ๐
Hell yeah
short, i somewhat agree, given that i've made multiple runs now
no you get 3 decoration recipes for one of the last rewards
I was able to find the light fissure
ah! that's what you meant, i figured it was either the qs shop part, or the exotic biome stabilized reality glitch decorations. you can get them on non-expedition modes too, and there's more besides those three types. also, as long as you've got one in your inventory, you can always build multiples using pure ferrite iirc, if you just don't back out completely of the build menu, after placing down the one you had in inventory. once done building as many as you want, collect one.
ฤฐ can't seem to find storm crystal this expedition. Are there planets that exclusively produce storm crystals during storms?
@languid crypt check weird biome link in !faq-biomes (type it in #bot-spam )
if i'm in a party with a friend, do they have access to portal to my bases?
see <#nms-expedition message>

@sudden reef
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.

if they're using a teleporter in the same system as those bases are - yes; if they're not uploaded, you'd have to be in the system of the base they want to teleport to. best just using anomaly after they unlock it
yep yep ๐ welcome back
egg still broken on switch?
well, i saw a player posting a video here in that they were able to hatch translucent spawn companion egg on switch, but no official word on it. i'd suggest holding off for now, if you want to be extra safe.
I'm not on switch, I was just curious
Sorry if I sounded rude-
ah i saw series x, but thought you might have a switch too; you didnt sound rude at all ๐
I do have a switch, but I only have nms on xbox
gotcha
I hope more people get into nms honestly
Switch is saying it's still on 5.21, so I'm holding off to be safe.
I ain't risking anything on a 720+hr file for heresay. ๐
they did post a video, but yeah, if wanting to be extra safe, just wait for official word/5.22 to drop for SW
I don't have spare pet slots right now, anyway.
Heyo, doing the expedition, I'm kinda stuck on "discover 2 exotic creatures". There's a single exotic planet in this system, and it only has a single animal in it. I checked all planets and tried scanning one, but except that one on planet of light, nothing works. Can I do this "quest" in the next system?
Yes, you can do it in the next one.
oh ok, thought I had to finish all here before jumping to the next, thank u~
The next system will have another exotic planet with another creature for you.
๐
You don't have to scan both on the same planet. You can scan each on different ones.
If i leave expedition and my friend needs help, can i (in a normal save) help him?
with either stuff that i can give or play with him
or something like that
nope
I think you both have to be in the Expedition for you to help him.
correct ^
which planets have ancient ruins?
Never was, I'm that player
All of em
Buy a map from the space station to find easier

you can give salvaged data to other players right?
how do you get the scrap metal fast?
Yes
Scrap? Or do you mean tainted metal?
Tainted metal can be found in crates on derelict freighters, during exploration you will also find crew manifest and captains log, both of which can be exchanged for scrap metal at a scrap dealer on space ststions
oh so the expedition wants me to get the tainted metal the regular way, i see
doesnt that take like 3 hours to get 600
i thought you only get like 150 from derelect freighters lol
Yeah. Crates don't drop much, the real value in tainted metal is from crew manifest and captains log
okay thank you
Which planet gives me ancient ruins in the expedition?
Any of them, go to a Cartographer at a space station and buy a chart
ฤฐs that different from Alien Ruins?
So if I'm paying the exhibition offline will it still disappear after November 7th?
That expedition was straight forward..
But did it erase expedition 15s pet?
no
game know your internal system time instead of relying on the server
Damn, why is it so short
still got like 5 days to do it
this one is also relatively shorter than others
in terms of milestones
I won't be able to start it until the fourth, its super short time wise, it got released like what a week ago maybe
yeah this one only last 2 weeks
might do some reading beforehand so you are prepared when you finally start doing it
can beat it in like 3 hours if you know what to do
Yea I'm gonna have to, thanks for the heads up
From the Pins in this channel: โขFor the ancient ruins milestone, you need the ruins that do NOT have treasures to dig up (i.e. monoliths).
Note that you can skip the signal booster and surge batteries, just buy alien site maps for nav data instead.
Buy 3 maps, spam them all open, then go to the markers for "Plaque" and "Ancient Ruin", interact at each, done.
If a map tells you you've already located that type, keep spamming it until it decides to choose a different one.
And, when you get to the site you can choose the option to learn more of the language. Two of those and you are done.
Did you complete the milestone that gives it?
Yeah, I've done verything up until that point
Okay, make sure the mission is active for using the blood. Then craft the proper blood. Then locate the portal with the quicksilver.
Its the sun rise blood correct?
Yes, I believe so.
I think I might have also messed it up bc I used a Alein thing and I got a portal.....
But idk
Ahhh, I did that once. You can try flying to another location (other side of planet or another planet) and use another Quicksilver potion to find a new portal.
Nice, happy gaming!!
Thx U too
How many derelict freighters did it take you guys to finish the Metal Bones objective? I emptied the only one I could afford to buy the location of from the scrap dealer and I only have 191/600 metal.
One.
Sell the manifest and log to the scrap dealer for more tainted metal
oh that's how it works? Okay that's making me feel less defeated
also, after doing your first derelict, you can go to Helios in Space anomaly for a free signal scanner
Nice. Thank you.
is the egg bug fixed for the pc yet?
Can I ask for help finding a derelict freighter
prepare 5 million units, buy emergency signal scanner from scrap dealer in space station, activate it then pulse drive
I don't have 5milll I only 2
go make units
sell the bones you got from a previous miletstone
go back to that planet and find more if you need to
Stone ghosts is one of those ultra finicky ones huh
It keeps telling me to find ruins with signal booster but all that finds is trading posts and manufacturing facilities.
I already found an alien ruin with a nav chart but it won't count that for the milestone

Hi, I accidentally started the expedition and I canโt figure out how to get back to my save file. How can I leave the expedition and get back to my save file? I asked in help and itโs crickets.
you can do it in the pause menu
How?
there is a button that says return to primary save or sth
I dont remember where exactly
but its in the pause menu
Hi guys need helps here, how the hell do I catch anomalous fish? Every system I went it'll tell me no anomalous world detected in local system
What is consider as anomalous?
one of these worlds
iirc in the 2nd breach system there is one
a [REDICATED] planet
Is that the one that without the station?
I try to get back to that system but not sure how
Thank you, I need to go back to that system

he is to the right of the expedition terminal
I appreciate you, lemme go look
lol I feel like such an idiot. What a relief. Thank you for your help. I got it
well I think my expedition save is screwed. at the beginning you're given an advanced mining laser package. except I wasn't thinking and installed a normal one on my MT. unfortunately there's no way to uninstall it, and I can't fully construct it bc it requires Wiring Looms. and I see no buildings in sight, let alone one with a trade terminal. not that i have any money anyway
it's absurd that they don't allow you to uninstall tech that isn't completed yet
can't you it dismantle it?
since i need an advanced laser to repair the ship... lol
nope, doesn't give me any option to
weird, I remember dismantling half-built tech all the time
also what do you mean by needing advanced mining laser
repairing your ship should take very little effort
doesn't pure ferrite need advanced laser?
no?
i'm tired, maybe my brain isn't remembering right
you refine ferrite dust
you get magnetised ferrite, then refine it again for pure ferrite
well i didn't see any ability to build a personal refiner, maybe i missed it
i bring a bunch of raw materials and then every time I get upset because they don't allow you to use them until you reach the anomaly. the beginning of expeditions is always the most annoying grindy part for me
anyway thanks i'll try again tomorrow
I guess you got used to endgame tech and forgotten the basic
Can someone dm me coordinates to a portal? I canโt complete phase 4 without them. Things bugged again.

Idk what thatโs suppose to help
read the pins and you will see the glyphes from any portal in expedition
Ahhh, didnโt see than thank you!
This expedition is so buggy. That still didnโt work for me even though it worked last time.
are the ruins we are meant to find those things with the keys and the large box?
I think it is the other above ground type
ta. went to the wrong one, then :) do you know which maps give them?
I think most planets . But buy a map from cartographer
What batteries?
surge batteries
I think they recharge starship shieldd
Not sure which cartographer map to buy not in game presently
But I think it is 50:50 what type of ruin it takes you to
Some other people's bases are next to ruins if you see one in their base screenshot
fair. will check if I et the casual chance :)
the alien cratographer maps are the ones you need, 4th from top iirc
sweet. thanks
don't go to the ruins but to i think the plaques and the buildings where you choose between learn language or history
Guys, how do I do arachnophobia? As soon as I get in my ship, the interceptors arrive and I find myself in a dogfight...
to not do that you need to run away and hide from them until they forget about you
Do the large sentinels spawn only at 5 star wanted level?
My multitool is too weak to kill sentinels so I find it hard to increase my wanted level while on ground
then you need to get upgrades to strengthen it
Yeah I guess I haven't installed anything!
yeah you need to fix that first :)
Should the packages rewarded within the expedition be sufficient?
maybe. I wind up getting my own nanites and just did my own thing
right. all that is needed now is to collect my thingies. that's for tomorrow.
thanks for this. exactly what I needed. :)
My multitool is still not strong enough to defeat sentinels on ground. Can I get some feedback?
How do i find quadrupeds on the dissonanz world?
they appear at later waves of sentinels, and spawn near dissonance resonators
you're looking for the large crabs
Whoever built a base by the cool story thing at the end of the expedition: your grandma a ho
That aside I loved this expedition and think it was a great theme for 16
P@iron tendon what worked for me is to snipe the quads with my ship single missle will do. Fly slow and low. When you see a tower hit the quads and fly out of atmo to avoid sentinals.
@worthy horizon See my reply above
Do you have to simultaneously evade the interceptors that come after you once you get in the ship? I'm still struggling to get above 1 wanted level at ground combat
@iron tendon no you dont need to. After u snipe the quad fly up yo space until u evade then drop down and repeat. Safe method
im an idiot and have no idea how to complete the stone ghosts in phase 5
i keep finding monoliths
You need ruins or plaques
Buy 5 alien maps from space station cartrographer, keep activating them
is there a specific planet?
Visit only locations for plaques or ruins
No
Don't clear other locations marked by the maps
If you're still stuck, you can use the exo craft scanner to look for the nearest ruin. Just pick "Ruins" on the scanner
(land exos require radar power resonator tech installed to scan for ruins; minotaur cannot)
True. I forgot what the name of the specific scanner tech was, thanks
How do I encounter the quad? Are they only located somewhere specific on the planet?
quads are sentinels that spawn on 3rd 4th and 5th threat levels on a planet when fighting sentinels
only non corrupted
Ok, will I need to kill the drone things first?
I can't even take down 3 sentinel drone things
please see this post <#nms-expedition message>; corrupted quads aka large spiders are often found guarding dissonance resonators and even buildings on corrupted sentinel aka dissonant planets, not just when escalating wanted level, @mortal shoal
@iron tendon
tips for taking them out:
- paralysis mortar+primary of choice+3 s-class upgrades - approach a large spider, if there's any floaters around kite them away first (mine something nearby so that they'll go investigate, leaving you alone with the large spider), para mortar spider and keep it stunned, unload primary weapon fire
bonus: also unlock and install voltaic amplifier from anomaly/MT research npc for +21% damage vs stunned entities - minotaur+minotaur cannon
- from the air, especially if your current ship has hovering capabilities, for example using rocket launcher
Thanks guys!
also Ive posted a location of A class sentinel MT in the system that may help
^here: <#nms-expedition message>

that's confusing rn

ok i see. so, read it like. "breach 1" - as in, "breach boundary" milestone from phase 1, "uses
for elixir of blood", done in starter system; "breach two", the system in which you'll do the "breach two" milestone, from phase two, the first system after the "first breach" (in the expedition lore, get it?), which is "rendezvous 1" (as if it were a previous expedition,that was the term used, rendezvous, for each of the main systems) in the teleporter.
if you goto a teleporter, there is no rdv3 on the list, ever, because rdv3 is uncharted, Gaxaral
wtf.
alright, i mean, i was getting trapped in the same - nevermind.
sorry, i need lunch.
i was getting confused by the "breach3" milestone being done in rdv2 - just being stupid (me)
i explained this very question yesterday
and now was getting confused by it myself.

a little bit confused on this expedition (phase 4) - it's asking me to discover two exotic creatures, but the exotic planet in the system only has one creature
am i supposed to be using space station teleporters? or
Try a previous system
You can use the tele porter. There are sometimes exotic bases listed
Check the pins for locations
I quite like this expedition, being "stuck" in the same 4 or 5 systems
man im having a tough time getting a derelict frieghter to spawn
600 tainted metal sounds like a lot
thanks
neither of the previous systems with space stations have exotic planets though
been searching bases in the teleporter for the past few minutes, but haven't found any
go to rocangh which is the place you end up in the 4th part
its got a planet of light
im there rn
must be the earlier system that didn't have a space station
rv4 supposed to have 1
thats the one we mentioned already
Umardag system, the system you get to by completing breach4 milestone, will have another
a moon, gold on resource list (gold's exotic biome native mineral)
thanks
living slime can be made into nanites right?
refine tainted metal once the tainted metal one is complete
living slime yes, but there are more economical stuff
I'm dumb, just looked for a trade outpost in uncharted space system
just so i dont waste my time, is there a exotic planet somewhere in the 5th and 6th systems?
also wow derilic freighters are profitable
not sure but i know there's one in 3rd and 4th
kk
what to do if you ruined the expedition's progress?
what do you mean by that
How you ruin it?
with the help of the space anomaly I teleported back to the 2nd phase, but I can't teleport to the third one because there is not a single teleport there
there are no space stations in phase 3
and I need to catch abnormal fish
Cant catch at another planet with water?
even if the portal is not ready for phase 4?
can you give the coordinates of the planet in phase 3? try to enter the coordinates into the portal, maybe it will work
please?
I think Phase 3: Visit Hijo 13/W8, the Planet of Light,
Phase 4: Dupraie T47, a Webbed Moon
i hope i got the order correct.
i followed: https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/1gapz1h/the_cursed_expedition_16_in_4_hours_full_guide/
off topic: are folks still salvaging these ships to get the chassis for later crafting?
whop want fight with me vs the big sentinals
next Expdeition ?
Exp 16 is the first expedition I've intentionally walked away from. I can't believe anyone finds that constant glitching effect and being attacked/harrassed on every planet to be fun. The though of trying the relaxing activity of fishing, which also being attacked... I just don't get it. Absolutely awful experience for me. It's not like I have room for another ship anyway.
Hey! I'm in a group with my friend and she cant port to my base, how do I get her to join me?
Just build a base with an Anomoly seal for peaceful fishing @fast nimbus
how to beat the big sentinals, they are so strongh
There are ways of also playing so that the boundary thing isn't really an issue, such as using ship to recharge, using minotaur on planets or using anomoly seal when unlocked
My 1st run, I found an A class sentinel weapon, my 2nd run i unlocked minotaur and cannon. Some people use ship guns as well
I just flew around in my ship and hit em with rockets
They wander around here and there so you don't gotta get a full 5 star wanted level
Still need help?
Giving out a massage on the first friend add, oooo
Stuck on the alien ruins. Bought 8 maps but they keep pointing to the same ruins and the buried ones don't count. Is there another way to find them?
Same ruins? A monolith would do
Open 3 maps at once without going to any marked destinations. This forces the 3 to be different. If it says one is already open, keep spamming the open button until it chooses a different one.
The maps are sending me to the ssme 2 buried ruins on this planet instead of sending me to a new one.
You sure you using ALIEN charts?
It won't let me open more then 1. I tried that on the space station.
From the Pins: โขFor the ancient ruins milestone, you need the ruins that do NOT have treasures to dig up (i.e. monoliths).

when you get to the alien poi, there should be a dialogue option circle thing
I just picked knowledge of the past option

โ Bug Warning !!! ๐คฌ ๐ฅ
There is an issue with the Glowing Egg expedition reward (see image ยป). We strongly recommend players on Nintendo Switch to NOT yet claim this reward until the below patch is made availabe.
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.
Update October 31st 2024
A patch for this and other issues has been pushed to all platforms apart from the Switch, which should soon โข๏ธ see this update too.
Source: The Cursed Patch 5.22
Note: Reporting this specific issue is no longer required.

why does the game keep giving me a 2x2 sc multitools when I start the expedition? is the expedition multitools layout depends on the layout of the one that I have on my main save?
it seems so, oddly enough
expedition tools have a history of copying your save's multitool's sc layout, if you start from that save
thank you
Well that was easy with the right maps lol. Now all I need is the quads and the tainted metal.
Hi, Iโm stuck at the portal. I drank the potion to find the portal but when I got here it doesnโt activate when I try to activate it? Is my game bugged??
Did you make sure the mission is active and craft the correct potion of blood?
Here's the chart from the Pins in case it helps:
The cursed isnโt showing up for me at the expedition terminal, would anyone know why?
Idk if you solved this already but just use the coordinates to go to the correct breach. Then wait a little bit and select the mission again, and you can use the elixir on the same portal you came through. I had to do that with every breach, this expedition was extremely buggy.
yall when does this expedition end?

Hi Iโm stuck at the messenger of the atlas screen
The messenger just appeared in space
I accepted the message
And now itโs just sitting there
ok guys... "extreme weather planets".... how do i identify one. WIll it actually say litterally "extreme weather" when you inspect them? or will it be like "toxic gas fart poison planet" or some such variation?
ive flown to like 10 systems and cant find an "extreme weather planet" it seems
#nms-expedition message
always check the pins, they tend to have the info you need
This says where to get the storm crystals
โขstorm crystals: Urston (Breach 2 system: Temeferi X) (and others)
this is helpful, but then my question becomes, out of no mans sky hectagazillionbajillion planets, how does one find "Urston"
I completed the expedition and I claimed the boundary herald ship but it looks like it will only allow me to buy it for 1400 nanites?
How exactly does one float over an ocean for 60 seconds
for that milestone I got it just by dog paddle on the surface
yer i initially tried to jet pack over it for 60 seconds, but it means float in the water at the surface
am I soft locked? I can't warp, and this system only has 1 exotic species
but i need 2
Continue on with the other milestones and then use the portal to go to the next system. There are planets there where you can finish this one.
alrighty
Yep, you can buy it there for the 1,400 or claim it later. It will be available for purchase on any save you have as well as new ones at the Quicksilver vendor in the Anomaly.
The only benefit of claiming it now (from what I've heard) is that it comes with some extra tech installed.
Well it won't let me claim in final rewards screen says my inventory is full How many slots do I need to clear up? Assuming need starship inventory to claim the ship?
You can have up to 12 ships. If you have that many you'll need to get rid of one...
I only have the starter ship. I started a new game from the main menu for the expedition and been using the default one the whole time.

im assuming its trying to give you more then just the ship... some physical item you need inventory space for. have you got free inventory slots?
Iโm about to start the expedition, is this one I should bring over my multitool for? I think there is a lot of combat?
I brought mine and it made killing the sentinel spider things a cake walk.
Unless you like running Derelict Freighters, bring some Tainted metal. Like 600 of them.
When you copy the tool over, does it make a copy of it for the expedition? I canโt remember if it makes a copy of it going both ways or just when you want to pull the multitool out
I can't even do the derelict freighters
It's a copy
I keep falling through the floor
Good to know. I have done 2 or derelicts and I didnโt particularly care for them
I have seen recommendations to make sure Multiplayer is off. They also said the one in the starter system is pretty easy and BK201 said that one didn't have any issues on multiple saves.
If you need money to get the locator for another Derelict Freighter, check this...
Rendezvous 3 system (Rocangh Station) on planet Rucand at coordinates +6.79,-162.90 there's an A-Class Sentinel ship for grabs. Turn your multiplayer off before you go there else it'll probably be gone already.
I have one empty slot in Exo and one in Starship. If it's trying to give me extra stuff then it should say something like "Inventory Full, need X free Starship slots available". Also it just says Reward Boundary Starship and nothing else. I am doing a bug report now.
I think turning off multi-player fixed it
Nice!
Its a one time thing
Youll get the full 600 if you loot everything and sell captains log to the scrap metal guy
I really like the derelict freighters, hope they revamp em one day ngl
Oh yea, I know. There's RNG on the crates, but you usually get enough, though maybe not always.
I enjoy them too. It's like really spooky running around in slow motion.
Oh true, good thing to consider
I am currently in the gaxaral system which one of these planets is the one with corrupted quadrupeds it's one of the hello game systems for the expedition I think
Any one
ok this expedition is cool but they got way carried away with unskippable giant messages across your screen every 10 seconds
Yep
Heller help please ๐ฅบ
I need to find corrupt quadrupeds
Go to a world where the purple atlantium crystals spawn.
after the 2nd portal wrap it drop you on a dissonance planet, no?
I want a planet-side variation of them, personally.
I always thought that those ruins where you dig up the keys & treasure could be turned into something so much more impressive; maybe that could be it.
Am I softlocked? I'm in the phase 4 system (Rucand) and have a quest to scan 2 anomalous animals. However this system only has one anomalous planet with one species, and I don't have the space station warp to a system that has another anomalous planet, nor multiplayer (no Live Gold).
Continue on to the next system and there's a planet there with another one you can scan.
Guess I'll have to do that. I usually don't like making the quests out of order but it has to be
Finally everything done but the quads. Almost there ๐
when you can't find a planet with deep ocean, you can dig one yourself ๐
Ohhhh quads were not what I thought they were. These are hard lol
Big spider bois, not the doggos yup.
Corrupted quads and normal quads are very different.
I got one so far. So do I just hide to reset the swarms it to get another one to spawn?
You can just hop from resonator to resonator (the big drills) and look for one. They tend to hang around them 1 in 3 times.
