[remote thunder]

just goto main save

quicksilver shop

collect expedition rewards

[white perch]

Wait a min

Dang it’s tiny af

[frank bloom]

Amazing stats though

[remote thunder]

it's a frigate, not a freighter, so couldn't be ginormous

[white perch]

I wish I could land in it

Guess I gotta play mass effect now 😂

[warm gyro]

questiion. Trying to figure out how/where to go to finish 1st phase, rendeveou? It says be in space, (I`m on my freighter), see the line. I have a whitish line then a faint yellowish line. Go to that syatem then the planet right. Which line?

And should I do the anomoly from starting system firs before leaving?

Pinned guide?

thanks

[remote thunder]

1. make sure the rendezvous milestone is selected, then open galaxy map
2. after the first warp, you don't necessarily have to freighter warp, you could use your ship
3. anomaly access is unlocked after the first warp, becomes available to summon in quick menu just like that
4. you're looking at a system marked along the expedition route, with that yellow icon. there's a pinned post here with system names. if you expand the galaxy map info panel, it should tell you what rendezvous is in that system

[agile yew]

Is there a reason why the only rewards popping up under expedition 2 is the historical dosimeter?

[remote thunder]

well, the normandy should be there as well, if you claimed it in expedition. but yes, the other rewards wouldn't, since for example, fleet commander cape is originally a exp8 reward

^

[warm gyro]

oh, tyvm, again.

[sharp marten]

first contact objective wasnt as bad as I imagined, I inputted first two glyphs into portal and started moving away from galactic center, soon enough I have 4 systems already

[remote thunder]

anytime

[low ember]

How much longer do we have on this expo and how long does it take?

[remote thunder]

@low ember depends on game knowledge, etc - i started my first run from new save, iow had nothing, still finished in 2h25m.

average time is about 4-6h

[warm gyro]

Ok then I cn only warp near the pinned as near to that icon, target destination, then proceed right?

[remote thunder]

will depend a bit on rng on fishing

[agile yew]

Alr thx

[sharp marten]

lol, first contact with a name like that

[remote thunder]

if you can see the target system, if you got the range, you can free explore to it and select it and warp directly to it

[warm gyro]

Think I got it, thanks

[remote thunder]

there's some pretty cool ones.

[slender reef]

I wonder if there will ever be an expedition that will reward a Freighter. Not a Frigate, but a Freighter. A cool unique looking one.

[sharp marten]

pls no, I invested enough bulkheads into mine

[remote thunder]

maybe, honestly i wouldn't mind and tbf bulkheads eventually just keep piling up

[slender reef]

I have 46 bulkheads in my freighter right now.

[sharp marten]

multiple freighters and settlments when

and also more appearance slots

3 slots cant even fit one for each race

[tender stone]

I would fucking love that

[tender stone]

Real 😭

[sharp marten]

I thought "I'm gonna go out of my way to get lightly colored Korvax Resurgent"... then near my starting system there's a Vykeen guaranteed dread system, and in that system third dread I get is S-class

and that's it, I'm a Vykeen pirate now

has three adjascent L-shaped supercharged slots, too

if that's not fate telling me "fuck that Resurgent dream" I dont know what is

[tender stone]

Oh nice wtf

I had smth similar

I got a nice S class pirate dreadnaugut

Dreadnaught*

[sharp marten]

Dreadnaughty

[tender stone]

And I would much rather have an S class sentinel capital ship dread with Korvax crew

But I don’t wanna give this one up

[tender stone]

💀

[sharp marten]

maybe they could add some customization to existing capitals, and I mean parts, not just colors

[tender stone]

That would also be neat

[sharp marten]

capitals are so huge and visible in the sky and you call them in all the time but you can't customize it besides color

[tender stone]

I’d rather be able to have a fleet of freighters tho ngl

[tender stone]

Yeah

[sharp marten]

maybe a class between capital and frigate
like in EVE Online there's like 5 levels between them

there's destroyer, cruiser, battlecruiser, battleship, and then I think theres capitals

[tender stone]

That would also be neat but I just want to be able to own more than 1 freighter 😭

[sharp marten]

maybe own one capital but multiple normal freighters

and they'd fly around

but yeah I understand

[tender stone]

I want a capital ship sentinel dreadnaught design, and if it ever releases I want a living freighter

[tender stone]

Yeah

[sharp marten]

LEXX

[tender stone]

I mean they could just let us get like 5-8 freighters

And just let us give the capital ship or flag ship designation to 1

And that’s the one u summon

(And ofc u can change which one that is)

[sharp marten]

what would the rest do, just chill in pocket dimension like ships when you dont call them?

[tender stone]

That and hopefully be able to go on special missions like frigates

[cunning lagoon]

Me doing the entire normandy expedition in one afternoon

[tender stone]

Put a suggestion up about it, hoping it’s looked at lmao

[remote thunder]

#nms-the-future , !hg

[tender stone]

Hoping I can get this one done fast :)

[tender stone]

ik ik 😭

We were discussing it tho

lol

[remote thunder]

i know 🙂 you're fine

[sharp marten]

so the expedition one you want, would it be like LEXX?

[tender stone]

Ty

[sharp marten]

and what would expedition be like

[tender stone]

Glad to know this server doesn’t give like 30min timeouts for dumb stuff like that

Seen others like that before

[tender stone]

What’s LEXX?

[sharp marten]

show about living capital ship basically

[tender stone]

Also expedition could be smth for getting living freighters

[tender stone]

Oh alr

[sharp marten]

how many expeditions do you think they will rerun this year?

3 or 4 more?

[tender stone]

No clue I’m practically new

Played the game like 4 years ago

Quit after like 100 hrs and just came back lol

[remote thunder]

possibly the 5 they released this year even

who knows

they've been known to surprise us

[tender stone]

What other cool expedition stuff is there (other than cosmetics) like singularity drive, Minotaur flamethrower, etc?

And living ships

[remote thunder]

probably meant living frigate, the Leviathan from expedition7; here', check this pinned post <#nms-modding message>, then check the nms assistant app

!mobileapplink

[atomic tusk]

I started a new save on the expedition. Should I look into buying a multitool or should I just go ahead an upgrade the one I already have?

Same with the Starship?

[remote thunder]

personally, i upgrade the gear i have to ease my progression curve; i keep an eye out on starter/rendezvous system station terminals and upgrade shops for stuff that might be useful and help me complete expedition faster

since you started from a new save, when expedition ends, or you finish whichever comes first, the save will be converted to a normal mode save after

[atomic tusk]

I hope to use this save file as my primary (which I hope is possible), is that a bad thing?

[remote thunder]

not at all

you'll have a jump started character basically

[atomic tusk]

You just answered my question haha. So it's like a seasonal character in Diablo

[remote thunder]

yeah

it converts from one "seasonal" league to "standard"

[tribal iris]

I can’t locate the blueprint analyzer on the Anomol

Where is it??

[remote thunder]

back room, across the hall that connects with nada/polo's balcony, between starship and exosuit research npc - the construction research station

[tribal iris]

I’m at the station now

Which tab? It’s not listed from what I can see

[remote thunder]

what exactly are you looking for?

what part.

bp analyzer doesn't evn exist anymore btw

it was replaced with construction research unit, but not available in exp2 redux

construction research station in the anomaly has everything construction research unit has and more

[tribal iris]

I’m trying to recruit scientists

So I can make extract

[remote thunder]

you can't recruit base crew in expeditions; basically, you're looking at the synthesis laboratory terminal, same room, between multitool cabinet and exocraft research npc

fwiw, base crew terminals bps have to be unlocked via their secondary quests, which as mentioned, you cant do in expedition

if this is about bait for the frozen fish milestone, mealworms works just fine, no need to get bionic lure

[tribal iris]

So I can’t make exocraft?

[remote thunder]

you can - geobays are unlocked in the construction research station/transport research tree

[tribal iris]

I made a bat but I have no scientists for it

[remote thunder]

you don't need them in expedition

you do realize that you're in #nms-expedition , not #nms-questions , right?

[tribal iris]

Yes, I’m trying to make an excraft in the expedition

I don’t understand the process

[remote thunder]

like i said, goto anomaly, back room, where all the npcs are in a circle, to your left as you get to the room, there's the starship research npc, on his right there's the construction research station terminal. interact with it.

[tribal iris]

I just did, I’m not sure what the step by step process is

[remote thunder]

now change between available research trees, till you get to the Transport one, where all the geobays are

[tribal iris]

That’s what im saying it’s not showing

Okay

I found it

[remote thunder]

yep, that's the one

[tribal iris]

Okay now what do I do? I’ve never used an exocraft

[remote thunder]

well, 1) not sure why do you need an exocraft atm? 2) in short, make sure you got the resources needed, goto a planet, build the geobay, exocraft will spawn/if it doesn't interact with the relevant geobay terminal to spawn it, delete geobay to get 100% build materials back to rebuild and resummon exocraft on a different planet

[valid hollow]

I’m new to expeditions and I have seen people talking about using the expedition terminus to bring items back to their main save but I can’t figure it out. If I complete the expedition the terminus just shows me the “expedition over” screen with no inventory slots, and if I go back to my previous save point - after all missions or done but I haven’t done the final complete - it just tells me to complete the mission. Is it not possible to stash items from this one?

[lusty slate]

Did you start a fresh save for the expedition? Or use the expedition terminal in the Anomaly?

[valid hollow]

Fresh save. Didn’t even know I could start it that way

[remote thunder]

Is it not possible to stash items from this one?
correct

[lusty slate]

If you started from a fresh save, you don't have the option to send inventory items to your main.

[tribal iris]

HAHA! YES!! I got my first exo!!

Thank you BK

[remote thunder]

have fun

[lusty slate]

However, all the phase rewards are account wide unlocks.

[valid hollow]

Bummer. Good to know for the next one

[remote thunder]

goto anomaly quicksilver shop/collect expedition rewards, in your other saves, if you have any

[tribal iris]

How do I discover a new star system? I keep warping all over my galactic map and I’m not getting any progress on the 0/8

[quaint urchin]

It only counts when the pop-up screen says 'First Contact' instead of 'Discovered by'.

[remote thunder]

Make sure you visited the station of the last rendezvous system you've been to, take a few warps away from expedition systems (up/down/left/right, you pick), then get black hole coordinates from Polo@Space Anomaly, and go through it. Finally, warp again away from that position at the current max range of your ship, 1-3 times - that should take you into undiscovered areas.

remember, up/down/left/right

not just towards the core

or away from it

[tribal iris]

👍

[remote thunder]

@tribal iris if you're really struggling and want to finish asap, turn off internet - not just multiplayer, the internet access

then you couldn't find any discovered systems by other players

this is true as well

devs made it so there's quite a few travelers in rdv stations

i'll probably add that soon to the pinned post as we approach the last days

[misty plinth]

Can also try to collect glyphs - I would suggest 3 - and random portal

[remote thunder]

still a few days left

will also make a mention to.. "food for thought: if you don't upload system discoveries, you could potentially be making it easier for others that come after"

but yeah, important to remember that galaxy map is vast

and many just warp in the same plane

even after portaling or black hole, always do a few more warps from it

[tribal iris]

What are glyphs?

[remote thunder]

a traveller

[misty plinth]

How do you NOT upload the systems while still completing the objective/milestone?

[remote thunder]

!faq-portal command is available

[remote thunder]

the milestone doesn't require uploading at all - if you notice, it immediately registers +1 when you warp to a system and actually discover it

actually be "the first"

right?

so..

there's no need to upload anything, unless you want the nanites, which at this point, wouldn't be a problem

i didn't upload a single system discovery this expedition, and got it done

[tribal iris]

But how do you collect single glyphs?

You mean charging the symbol?

[remote thunder]

interact with a traveler for example

[remote thunder]

to be able to dial an address, you must charge the entire glyph wheel

[misty plinth]

I'm one of those dunderheads that discovers all fauna on a planet and gets the bonus - would have to remember to NOT do that 😝

[remote thunder]

and, fwiw, again, you don't have to upload any discovery - you don't even have to be the original uploader to be able to get the zoology bonus

you just need to scan the full nr of species on planet, not upload them

(and ofc, click the button)

[misty plinth]

I thought to get the bonuse you had to click it and it did the upload

[remote thunder]

no, that button doesn't upload

it just becomes available, and grants you the extra reward when you press it

[misty plinth]

Well there you go

[remote thunder]

the upload buttons are 1) on top of the discovery entry itself, and 2) the upload all button in the main discovery view, both of which you know about

[misty plinth]

I have a habit of uploading without thinking when I see it 😝

[remote thunder]

😄

i do zoology all the time, i love it

[tribal iris]

Where do I press the button? I’m not seeing it

[wintry void]

Must admit I never do that, only 1 I press is the arrow on planet scan page

[bright moth]

What exactly am I supposed to be looking for with the Myth Beacon? I'm on the planet and I'm using it but..the quest log is so darn vague and I don't understand lol

[remote thunder]

are you playing solo? have echoes through the ages selected in the expedition/mission Log tabs, use target sweep to find the building you're supposed to go to

when nearby, hint lower right of the screen will update

remember that you can force cycle hints by pressing H or dpad left

[bright moth]

It's not giving me the target sweep option with my scanner

[remote thunder]

have echoes through the ages selected in the expedition/mission Log tabs

[bright moth]

Yeah, i have it selected. Should I be solo? I'm in a group with my brother

[remote thunder]

yes, group play breaks target sweep

[bright moth]

Oh ,dang, okay.

[remote thunder]

just leave group and it should start working again

select a diff milestone, wait 10s, reselect echoes through the ages if needed

[bright moth]

It's working now! Ty 😁

[tribal iris]

Okay. Thanks. This game is so awesome there’s just all these little things that seem endless

How do I get back to system 2? Lol

[remote thunder]

teleport back; always visit stations of rendezvous systems in expeditions; or just warp back

teleport to closest you can, in short

system names <#nms-expedition message>

[tribal iris]

Can you paraphrase? I’m like on phase 5

Do you know a station name?

[remote thunder]

station names have the same names as the systems

[tribal iris]

Okay so which system am I looking for ?

Nm, just stumbled across one

Hah!!

[remote thunder]

[balmy pagoda]

Which "Alien chart" do we need from the cartographer to get the Nameless History Milestone in Phase 4 in the pinned messages? None of the charts I can buy from the cartographer specifically say Alien. Only planetary, artifact, or settlement.

[tribal iris]

If I close the game will my fleet expeditions still keep going?

[misty plinth]

Yes

[tribal iris]

so I can watch some tv and those will complete?

Thanks

[misty plinth]

Sure

[quaint urchin]

I believe it is this one.

[balmy pagoda]

Thanks will try it.

[white perch]

Note it is Alien Cart data, but there is a chance of getting a monolith. You will still have to go to it and activate it to use another one on the same planet. Choose Language, and you will get the nameless history milestone. This is the same thing to do for the Nala upload, which will be in phase 5.

[tribal iris]

[slim elm]

Are the base uploads glitched since end of exp 16? I can only see a few from planets that have dozens, can't warp to them, get that "unable to download", base pics don't upload either. I'm connected to discovery.

Anyone else have issues with the base pics and seeing them while on the planets?

I lost my spaceship

Can’t find it

Can’t summon it

Losing my f’in mind

Hello??

[misty plinth]

Hello! Ship is probably out of launch fuel - will need to locate the icon for it on planet and hoof it back to it.

[tribal iris]

Can’t do it

Looking for an hour

[misty plinth]

You can check the status of your starship using the proper tab - if it shows up then the universe did not use it as a snack.

[tribal iris]

Proper tab?

[low jackal]

it would help if you can describe the situation better

[misty plinth]

You know - like when you check inventory there are tabs at the top for starship and freighter.

[low jackal]

where are you, what does it say when you try to summon your ship

etc

[tribal iris]

No launch fuel

I can’t find an icon

[misty plinth]

Nailed it 😝

We can't help you with looking at your hud - sorry

iirc this game has a failsafe incase your ship is far away and have no launch fuel

[tribal iris]

can anyone help with the expedition to speedrun it/

thanks

[slim elm]

You nailed the reference, I was a Captain Dunsel in a different game in a galaxy far far aw... wait that was a different one too 😅

I've seen a trend after expeditions where the bases don't upload to travel to, including pics of bases and bases themselves not visible on planets. I think they had to do a fix to fix the base pics but this seems to be a bit more complicated this time. At least our own bases are uploaded ok.

[tribal iris]

I’m totally lost on “Aquire the Myth Beacon”

[tough plank]

I'm having a really hard time catching these uncommon fish...

only caught one after 30 mins of fishing

[misty plinth]

Looks like you are using the proper bait and if you've caught 1 that counts you are also on the proper type planet . Maybe try fishing in deeper water and during a storm for better luck?

[tough plank]

ok thanks!

[tribal iris]

Where do I acquire the myth beacon?

I’m totally lost

Gd I suck at these expeditions

Been on this thing for like 13+ hours

[misty plinth]

The Anomaly Quick Silver vendor

Each scan with the dosimeter earned you QS so you can have enough to buy one

[tribal iris]

But which item

I’m at the vendor

[misty plinth]

It says Myth Beacon ~ 80QS

[tribal iris]

There’s like hundreds of items

I’m not seeing it

[supple sedge]

its in the misc tab or w/e

[tribal iris]

Gotcha

Jesus, Mary, and Joesph! The end was very confusing and hard.

Got it done however, m’lord.

[tired trout]

How often do expeditions rerun/ a new one starts after the current one is done?

[supple sedge]

reruns are generally only "the expeditions run over this year" at the end of the year according to what ive been told

a rerun of an expedition this old is not usual

[halcyon sparrow]

SOS LOOKIN FOR HELP TO SPEEDRUN THE EXPEDITION OR I AM COOKED XD

[supple sedge]

you have plenty of time

it doesnt even take a day at a moderate pace

[cobalt socket]

Took me about 4-6 hours, but I got unlucky with phase 5 and hit a bit of a bug. Relogged and got it working but that slowed me down

I was just wondering what all goes from the expedition to the main save? I know there’s the item transfer, but what about nanites? What’s the best to spend it on that can transfer? I have like 8 hours in my main save before the expedition so I’m still new. Any help is appreciated, sorry for the long message!

[meager scroll]

Currencies transfer to primary save the exped was started from

Units, nanites, quicksilver

Items that were not put in transfer box will be sold automatically and that money will be also transferred

[cobalt socket]

Can I transfer more than one box? Like put stuff in, go on main save, take out, repeat?

Thanks for the help (:

Just wanna know the best things to do before I hit complete and can’t go back lol

I didn’t use a single upgrade, so I got a whole inventory full of them

[meager scroll]

Nope, you got only the 30 cargo slots or whatever the number was

And 10 slots for packed tech

[loud surge]

3:53

[cobalt socket]

Oh that’s lame. So I can’t bring all the upgrades.

[halcyon sparrow]

yea but i wanna speedrun it owo

@halcyon sparrow

No gifs in this channel please

[wise meteor]

You can do the expedition with a clean empty loadout, but some oxygen, ferrite dust etc.... will save you from shooting trees and rocks unnecessarily.

[mint coyote]

i need to catch B class ice fish but the counter does not go up and is stuck at 4/5 what do i do?

[remote thunder]

be sure to use rarity bait e.g. mealworms, keep fishing, just rng

Only fish with rarity=uncommon or higher with ''icy/frozen waters'' in description count

[mint coyote]

i fished without anything in ice watter planet counter got up till i needed to empty my inventory the counter does not go up and i am still on the same planet

[remote thunder]

just rng

that's fishing for ya

remember that you don't need to complete this milestone before moving on to others; drop and claim a base comp, go on to complete next milestones if you still have any left

come back later

[mint coyote]

yea but you need that for the ship you get at the end

and only 6 days left

[remote thunder]

sure, but can come back later, instead of trying to spend the time for this one

that's what i did anyway

first try, only got 1 in 10min

[craggy echo]

is there enough time to finish this expo?

[remote thunder]

moved on to other milestones, came back later, got 4 in 7 casts

[remote thunder]

sure

[remote thunder]

you'll be fine

[craggy echo]

I can launch it from the anomaly?

[mint coyote]

well i have one legend one epic and 6 blues now

[remote thunder]

yep

[craggy echo]

okie. here I go...

[remote thunder]

suggestions on stuff to bring: <#nms-expedition message>

visual example

[craggy echo]

that's great thanks!

[remote thunder]

i brought ind drive+launch auto recharge+s-class hyperdrive module because i'm not sure i'll copy my ship in

but i do have the sus packets tech for quantum foam (amass 4.5k nanites)

[remote thunder]

rarity doesn't matter if description doesn't say "caught only in icy/frozen waters" though

and there's no bait specifically for the latter

[zealous tundra]

Can anyone offer some info on how to "construct an orbital exocraft materalizer"? The Wiki provides some info but I'm so unfamiliar since I've not played since 2020. It seems like a real hard thing to accomplish in Phase 1 so I assume I must be missing something

[remote thunder]

go into freighter base build area - on the bridge, green led stairs, the door in front of it, open build menu

[zealous tundra]

So when i do that i see options for things like storage rooms and such but I don't see anything (blueprints?) for the exocraft materializer

[remote thunder]

did you claim phase 1 milestone 3 yet?

[zealous tundra]

Not currently in-game will have to check

[remote thunder]

check its reward

[zealous tundra]

thx will do, also i started an expedition through a new save but what i read in the pins suggests that i can start one from an existing save? Where does one do that? Thinking I might have some resources that would shorten my play

[remote thunder]

from inside the space anomaly: leftof the quicksilver shop, there's the expedition terminus

[zealous tundra]

OK, it looks like i just never "claimed" any reward, I had a few in phase 1, 2 and 3 already from my poking around. To save inventory space I only claimed phase 1

if i got most of phase 1 and 20-30% of phase 2 and 3 complete. You think its worth restarting from my mega-old save

got like 90hours in

[languid spoke]

since you can bring in stuff to shorten the usual early grind you'ld be faster

also remember that a lot of people built bases and named them appropriately to help people get nanites faster or find fishing spots, get resources

[solid slate]

How do I get the Normandy into my original save?

[split vine]

hi all been taking part in beach head as missed it first time around
only think left to do is discover new systems but im struggling to do that
ive been to a portal to try to get to a area that less likely to be discovered but have realised i havnt any glyphs
do the travlers still apear on space stations ive not noticed any im used to the old style space stations
tldnr where can i start glyph quest

[strong saffron]

@split vine Read the pins msg in this channel it explains how to complete it

[split vine]

thankyou

[remote thunder]

in any of your other saves, including primary, just claim phase and final rewards from the quicksilver shop using the collect expedition reward dialog option

[remote thunder]

do the travlers still apear on space stations
yep, i've seen quite a few in rendezvous system stations

that said, if getting short on usable play time (several days left for expedition to end), remember that you can also disconnect wifi/lan cable to make every system undiscovered

[craggy echo]

did I miss cursed expedition?

[remote thunder]

yes, but the devs may rerun it soon

[zealous tundra]

Oh, so i could quickly get the rewards i already got on the standalone expedition on my main save? Meaning I could get the blueprints for the orbial exocraft bay and complete that bit faster?

[remote thunder]

only phase and final expedition rewards are unlocked account wide, orbital exo materializer is just a milestone reward

these here, <#nms-expedition message>

[zealous tundra]

Ah, well i guess i found that out only a little late. I really just want to fast track this cause I want the Normandy for when i do get the time to play for longer periods (I missed it last time cause babies tend to need a ton of attention when they are born lol)

[remote thunder]

@zealous tundra in short, if all you want to get from an expedition is the phase rewards (e.g. fleet commander cape) and the final expedition reward (e.g. normandy), you can rest assured that when you claim the relevant phase and final rewards, all of your saves, even ones you haven't made yet, under this account, will get access to all of it via quicksilver shop

just got to claim it

and this goes for any expeditions rewards

since exp1, to exp16

that's why starting from a new save is perfectly alright, if all you really want are the phase and final rewards of any given expedition

there's never any need to do so, in some effort to copy them back, couldnt even do so in some cases - nah, nothing to worry about

hope that clarified it

[random zenith]

Which expedition comes next?

My google foo is weak :( asking because it looks like we went from #16 to #2

[hearty glacier]

this was a redux or do-over of the 2nd

we may get another redux of another old one, way for new players to get the shiny shit

theres normally 4 new ones per year

[random zenith]

Ah got it. Does that mean there's no set cycle for reduxes?
Oh no way that's so cool

[hearty glacier]

nah im pretty sure its a dartboard at the office

[random zenith]

Can't believe the game is still in such good shape

[hearty glacier]

its come a LONG way lol

[random zenith]

Oh yeah

[marble robin]

Is there a glitch that force ends the expedition?

Im on the phone with someone who was doing the expedition with me. They saved their place and closed the game and turned off their xbox. Just turned it on to continue the expedition and it says it is complete and the milestones are all unavailable

[hearty glacier]

uhhhhhhh, no? Were you in a party?

[marble robin]

Nope

[hearty glacier]

Strange

[marble robin]

Its telling them the expedition is finished

At the expedition terminal

I’m headed to the anomaly to check myself

[hearty glacier]

id have em make a ticket to hello games

they had some issues with getting stuck at the end it looks like 9 months ago

but that was getting like stunlocked in a menu

[marble robin]

Yeah its not a stuck issue. Looks like the game force completed the expedition and locked out all the milestones. They never ended the expedition themselves and were not even on thr anomoly or at the terminal when the “end expedition” screen appeared and gave them units and nanites and such

[craggy echo]

how do I fix the freighter at the start lol

[split vine]

click on flashy broken things and add the resorses needed to fix

[wintry void]

exit freighter, fly to a planet, get resources to fix

[random zenith]

Will there be an expedition around the time this one ends?

[marble robin]

Yes

[random zenith]

Awesome thanks

[steep shale]

Are expeditions a constant?
One ends, another begins.

[marble robin]

No and yes. Previously they would run for a length of time and then a break between. As of right now, they run for two weeks and redux of a previous expedition runs. The cursed expedition was the last “new” expedition for this year. The rest are reruns of previous expeditions. We currently do not know when it will end or a break will happen

[cold tulip]

Its only constant on the end of year reruns

For this years expeditions plus one old one. But nothing is certain. They ran an old one last year too, additional to those years expeditions

[mint coyote]

i got the dosimeter now the mission is collect more data
what do i need to do i used the dosimeter on like 30 ruins and monolith but nothing happens just repeating longer storys and shorter story about a weapon

gonna go insane soon

[cold tulip]

Use alien charts from a space station

[quaint urchin]

You must select the top option when you reach the alien thing. It should only require 3 of them. I used these charts:

[wintry void]

make sure objective is active too

[remote thunder]

buried ruins/dig site charts won't work yep

[tribal iris]

How do I board the Normandy and make it my primary freighter?

I just completed the expedition

[remote thunder]

it's not a freighter, it's a frigate to add to your frigate fleet

[tribal iris]

Okay so what does that mean exactly? 🥺Ohh, so it can’t be boarded?

😥

[remote thunder]

some frigates can be boarded, but not this one

[mint coyote]

sorry for the delay my game is now in english
i need the myth beacon now which need another mission called anomalous research and there i am stuck

[remote thunder]

get the myth beacon (collective consciousness), select echoes through the ages milestone in phase 5

follow hints

force cycle hints by pressing H or dpad left

collective counsciousness on the left - echoes through the ages on the right, after buying myth beacon

forget "anomalous research"

[mint coyote]

well it just says submit historical data thats my current mission

[remote thunder]

what milestone.

like i said - forget anomalous research "mission" - that's not even a milestone

select the right actual milestone you need to be working on

[mint coyote]

it just says select the other one to continue

[remote thunder]

in the expedition tab, what milestone do you need to progress

simple question

and again, in bold, forget anomalous research

force cycle hints by pressing H or dpad left

[mint coyote]

i dont get it
i am just to dumb for this shit

[remote thunder]

post a screenshot of phase 5

expedition tab

forget it, no need. i'll explain it by text

[mint coyote]

too late its uploadng slowly

[remote thunder]

pause, open EXPEDITION tab, select collective consciousness milestone. unpause, force cycle hints lower right of the hud by pressing H or dpad left multiple times if needed.

what does the mission hint want you to do? open image full screen, see lower right

[mint coyote]

ah i think i get it now
i am sorry but thanks

[remote thunder]

no need to be sorry

@mint coyote remember, force cycle hints lower right of the hud by pressing H or dpad left multiple times if needed

thats your way around

it shows hints of other types, but it will only show a mission hint that's related to the mission that's selected in the mission Log

spam press H or dpad left when you want to see the hint for the milestone you're working on, after ensuring it's selected

[mint coyote]

on controller i knew the button but didnt on keyboard
thanks really really thanks you so much

[remote thunder]

no problem, you're welcome, anytime

[mint coyote]

yey now i need to wait 4 hours for my frigates to come back and then i am finished

[remote thunder]

you can, fleet expeditions even run when game isnt running, but you don't necessarily have to wait for them

Phase 3: Called by the Stars: 1) Send frigate on expedition, 2) interact with Fleet Command Room, 3) Abort Expedition, 4) interact again and Debrief Captain/End Expedition, repeat process.

still days left for expedition to finish, can safely just wait for them to come back

[clever sail]

When people find S-rank stuff out in the wild on expeditions, they normally leave bases and ect. But is it normal to post it here as well?

[mint coyote]

yea will do tomorrow when i wake up

[clever sail]

I found a couple s rank ships and posted them in the ship thread, but I don't know if it makes more sense to post it here for relevancy sake

[remote thunder]

#explorers-archive probably preferable, since they can be obtained even from different game modes

[clever sail]

Oh, I didn't know that was a channel. Ok, thank you!

[vocal tundra]

Did anyone complete this expedition’s mission? I can’t figure out what to do.

[cold tulip]

Buy it from the quicksilver shop

At the anomaly

[vocal tundra]

Yeh there’s nothing

[cold tulip]

Its there

[vocal tundra]

In expedition rewards or create exotic items?

[remote thunder]

qs shop/create quicksilver items/other curiosities

[vocal tundra]

Ohhh that thing. Thank you!

[remote thunder]

[granite jewel]

did they extend it?

like it says 2 wweks left

but it was less time last time i looked

[quaint urchin]

Only one week left, it ends on the 21st.

[granite jewel]

oh ok

[coarse garnet]

How to get myth beacon ?

[quaint urchin]

From Anomaly Quicksilver vendor

[granite jewel]

a bug perhaps?

[coarse garnet]

I don't see it at the quicksilver

[quaint urchin]

[wraith junco]

Not a bug. Rerun expeditions are short. 2 weeks. And 1 already passed

[quaint urchin]

I think the point is that it says, "2 weeks remaining". So for someone who doesn't know they could start it today thinking there are two weeks left to complete it when there is only one.

[wraith junco]

Thx. I see it now in my game.

Yes it looks not right

[coarse garnet]

Ok, stuck again.
Using the myth beacon do nothing.

On the galaxy map I only see two lines for current mission leading nowhere

Trying to tp back to rdv5

Ok it did fix it. Now there is a planet with a beacon

[elder yarrow]

What's the cheapest way to build out a frigate fleet?

[remote thunder]

Phase 3: Called by the Stars: 1) Send frigate on expedition, 2) interact with Fleet Command Room, 3) Abort Expedition, 4) interact again and Debrief Captain/End Expedition, repeat process.

@wintry void

lol you're so right though

[elder yarrow]

ok, but how do I get that frigate in the first place?

[remote thunder]

we already start with one

just got to do the process with it 3 times

[elder yarrow]

I must have missed that then XD

[remote thunder]

be sure to be on the lookout for the freighter command secondary mission, that will get you 200 frigate fuel tonnes after you download the fuel bps

it will pop once you select called by the stars after warping out of the starter system

[unborn badge]

is there a role or something where i can get an @ mention when an expedition goes live?

[wintry void]

nms announcements role maybe, but thats general announcements https://discord.com/channels/146101654981312513/372168538774831104

[remote thunder]

sometimes expeditions get released at the same time as an update too, so best to just keep an eye out for news in general

@unborn badge see replies above sorry

[unborn badge]

ye, i saw, ty

i missed 15 bc i dont log in often, lol

got 14 & 16, plan on doing 2 later

[wintry void]

less than a week to do 2, just saying

[unborn badge]

i got 14 within 48h, and 16 within 20

biggest issues were killing certain corrupte enemies

[remote thunder]

no combat on exp2 redux

[glass stump]

I've looked at the pins, but anyone have any good advice on any special items to bring when starting from the Anomaly?

[balmy pagoda]

I just finished Uncharted Milestone, and now trying to get to RV4 but the galaxy map shows like 3 or 4 segments but no RV icon.. Assuming I'm waay off course even near the other RV since I went through multiple black holes. Any idea how to get near back or what system I should be near?

[slim elm]

You can warp back from a space station

[balmy pagoda]

Oh the ones I warped to didnt have space stations and one was an outlaw

[slim elm]

It shows the past rendezvous stations, just warp back.

[balmy pagoda]

OK I'll go an another space station and warp back to RV 3 then

[slim elm]

I notice my starting multi tool is a C class yet has 4 supercharged slots. So I guess it's basically an S? I wonder if I upgrade it if I can get more super slots?

[quaint urchin]

Nope, only 4 supercharged.

[remote thunder]

hi, also see <#nms-expedition message>

[glass stump]

And @remote thunder comes to the resuce once again! THANKS!

[lusty slate]

If uncharted or outlaw, you can summon the Anomaly and use its teleporter.

[shy dagger]

How many days till end?

[languid spoke]

1 week

you can type !ExpTime in https://discord.com/channels/146101654981312513/372164853286305802

[shy dagger]

Nice

Have no time until in 3 days

[split prawn]

What expedition is up?

[shy dagger]

2 redux?

[split prawn]

oh yeah I see it

[stone lotus]

if you already did this expedition when it first released years ago, is it worth doing again (assuming it lets me)? like are any of the final rewards different?

[remote thunder]

please see <#nms-expedition message>

[stone lotus]

thanks

[arctic aurora]

Guys Im stuck in phase 5 quest 3, i Already have lvl 1 completed, bu have to send data to nada, someone can help me? how can i do it

[remote thunder]

Phase 5: Historiography Lesson: Make sure to have Historiographical Dosimeter on exosuit cargo; Get 3 alien charts from the Space Station Cartographer, use them all (spam use through any errors till it adds the next marker). Any Rdv system planet will work; Visit them all, pick the relevant option to progress milestone.

[arctic aurora]

Already did this.

now I have to get the item, but nothing hjappens

[remote thunder]

ah

i see

collective consciousness milestone, phase 5, yes?

[arctic aurora]

yep

[remote thunder]

Phase 5: Collective Consciousness: Myth Beacon is purchased from Space Anomaly Quicksilver shop, switch filter to Other Curiosities see example image

[arctic aurora]

ohhh

[arctic aurora]

Thanks!! i will go buy it

[remote thunder]

remember that you can force cycle hints lower right of the screen by pressing H or dpad left multiple times if needed, and that you need to have the right milestone (and mission in Log) selected to see the hint you need for progression. if you're in a group right now, this next stage will most likely force you to leave group for a bit.

[arctic aurora]

it works here, Thank you

[ivory wasp]

Is there a calendar for the expeditions?

[ocean gorge]

Past ones? We don’t know when new ones come out

Hey bk
Remember the other day when someone was talking about how some griefer had built walls around where you place the myth beacon?

Well I just went there last night, and the walls were gone. But someone left a great message telling people just please don’t put walls there. (like why tf would you put walls around something like that anyway )

😂

I do feel like asking people to discover 8 systems is too much. I think 2 or 3 at most would’ve been more than sufficient. Especially given how many people play NMS, across so many different platforms.

[quaint urchin]

I've done it 4 times already and didn't have any issues with Discovery Services active. I didn't even use the black hole trick. There's lots out there, but you do have to get around 1000 light years away from the Rendezvous and once you find one system, take little hops to nearby systems because they are likely undiscovered too.

[remote thunder]

remember that getting cadmium/emeril/perhaps even indium drive will also help

[quaint urchin]

I've found Pirate systems and uninhabited systems are the best.

[ocean gorge]

I got it done but overall I still think having people discover systems, only to not explore them, is kind of a waste. So I object to it more than just some people having difficulty with it
I had an indium drive, with a little over 2k LY range. It’s completely down to luck really.

[quaint urchin]

Indeed and I agree discovering without exploring was a bit pointless.

[remote thunder]

i get that - but tbf, players can explore planets for a bit, but the fact that there's only 2 weeks.. maybe gets some people with the feeling they got to rush

i did another run today, went through it just fine - the thing we also need to remember is to warp away from the black hole exit system, not towards the core, but up/down/left/right, 500LY or more

there's also travelers in some stations

but yeah, i do get what you're saying

[ocean gorge]

I wish rewards were cross-platform, and not just cross-save.
I don’t know if that will ever happen, like eventually?
Because that would be truly nice
Polestar is one of the few expeditions I ran on all my 3 platforms I’ve played NMS on: PlayStation, Xbox, and Switch.
So I’m hoping to run Beachhead (for the Normandy) on all 3 as well.
But it’d sure be nice to only have to run all expeditions just once

[remote thunder]

iirc originally i think it was 15

[remote thunder]

yeah, don't know, maybe

doesn't sound like a stretch

[rancid hinge]

Worst part of this expedition. Took forever on XBOX.

[remote thunder]

(can be completely cheesed by just disconnecting from internet)

[slim elm]

Do we get to keep the freighter after exp?

I'm playing an existing save

[stray surge]

Yes - if you either convert your expedition save or claim it from the quicksilver thing in the anomaly on your main save (assuming you fully complete the expedition)

[remote thunder]

not a freighter, a frigate

[slim elm]

Oh, so don't bother working on the freighter I guess

[stray surge]

Womp misread that and assumed they meant the Normandy

My bad

[remote thunder]

if you started from new save, there will be no need to claim normandy in that save after conversion (you already have it)

[slim elm]

Do we have to have a freighter on our main save to claim Normandy?

I'll find out

[remote thunder]

yes

[cedar badger]

Why is auto-fishing disabled for the expedition? lmao

[blissful onyx]

maybe fishing is a step that needs completion

[remote thunder]

it is

but in aquarius they let us change it iirc

[blissful onyx]

Ah

maybe they realized their mistake with this one and decided to make it more difficult
although fishing is already really easy

[remote thunder]

definitely

love the music when fishing

[lusty slate]

8 undiscovered is nothing considering only a miniscule percentage of Euclid has been mapped. Just get out of heavily populated regions.

When I was going for the 100 discovered systems title on main, I hit 30-40ish in a row on the outer galaxy rim. No one goes there.

[ashen shore]

[ashen shore]

Another few days yay

[hazy sparrow]

How do you tell which "direction" you are headed in a galaxy?

I read somewhere that turning off Online Discovery services and unplugging your network will treat all systems as new. Have not tested this. Kinda goes against the spirit of the thing too.

[lusty slate]

Select Galaxy core route. Then yeet yourself in the opposite direction. 😛

[lusty slate]

It does. But I just teleported back to the starter system, warped away from the core 2-3 times, then summoned the Anomaly and asked Polo to mark a nearby black hole system. It dropped me right into undiscovered space. Never touched the wifi settings.

If you want to do it legit, use Polo and his black hole coordinates. But not near expedition systems.

[hazy sparrow]

Black Hole is the advised way.
Jesus, another red squid. Bet when I come back this won't happen....

[lusty slate]

They smell money, gag and run

[hazy sparrow]

The starter system has a nice white mini-guppy. Saw a ton of them until I nip-niped enough money to trade for it, then POOF into the ether they all disappeared.

The fact that I am on the station with an exotic already probably is helping.

[maiden kiln]

Guys

which planet has life in it? in the first system

[ocean gorge]

Found this nice white Royal, in Ayamach I think it was (landed on my freighter)
Slots will of course vary somewhat depending on the ship you encounter
Nice name too

I didn’t buy it, because I didn’t want to transfer a ship. And I already have a royal

Well at that point I also didn’t have my money from my transfer of things😂

[blissful onyx]

Damn, id definitely take it and copy it to my main save

[hazy sparrow]

That's the white guppy I was talking about, pretty. I jumped from nip farm to nip farm until I had the money to get it. I'm going back to R5 for that red squid post-expedition, assuming the slots on my current green squid are no better. Wish we could paint our non-crafted ships, red and black is gorgeous on the squid.

All done now except for the Discover 8. I swear I thought the Normandy was going to fly off before I could get back to my ship lol.

[ocean gorge]

It’s a Royal (notice the long joust-like nose)
Guppies don’t have any kind of nose
Mosquitos have a thin needle nose
They’re all “ball exotics” and it’s all just a matter of nomenclature but it’s still nice to learn about
The royals mostly look the same other than color (although wing design can vary)
The guppies and mosquitoes can also vary in wing design but also other differences in body design as well.

I posted a yellow and a white guppy, and a red mosquito for you🙂

[glass stump]

OK< I'm dense. Just starting this expedition and I'm lost. Firt you have to repair damage item on your freighter. Hints says to buy a wiring harness in the station BUT I don't have any money. Do you go to the planet to mine things to sell, or mine astorids?

OK< I guess I missed it again. I didn't see anything in there about how to start to repair stuff.

Saw the list, but it starts with Phase 2. Also saw the one that list the milsestones and rewards, but didn't see guidance on how to START.

[misty plinth]

I think we are pretty much expected to check all our inventory at start and proceed from there. Determine what you can craft in inventory and what you need to buy then proceed to planet(s) to get materials.

Finding ways to earn credits along the way doesn't hurt.

[quaint urchin]

For what it is worth, that first Milestone only requires you to repair the Atmospheric Control Unit. That only requires 60 Chromatic Metal, 30 Gold, and 1 Wiring Loom. However, you start with a Repair Kit in the Freighter's inventory and you can substitute that for the Wiring Loom. I don't know what key you use with keyboard, but using an Xbox controller I can put the cursor over the part that requires the Wiring Loom to fix and press X to use the Repair Kit instead.

[glass stump]

Was not expecting to find this in the starting systems Space Station

[sharp marten]

yes

[misty plinth]

May we have more details on this MT please? What system, planet and glyphs if you would not mind. Thx

[rapid spindle]

...I found it in Ayamach the starting system of the Beachhead Expedition Redux, in the Space Stations Weapon Cabinet

[misty plinth]

This is so weird because I have been back there checking both sides and I get the same 2 MTs even after logging out and back in. You must have some luck on your side. Thank you for responding to my ask.

[rapid spindle]

I believe the planet I had been on before going to the Space Station was Etorp X if that helps at all, try reloading there

[misty plinth]

Can't hurt to give it a try - will do.

[copper parrot]

Rare or na. First time boarding a dreadnaught. Current freighter is stacked.

[onyx ember]

Both are the same rarity

[copper parrot]

Will base build transfer if I buy it or do I have to start over

[onyx ember]

You will have the option to transfer it, if you so wish

[finite scaffold]

I posted about how to get it in the #nms-multitools channel the first couple days the redux was released if you still want to get this and havent

[misty plinth]

Thank you for the information. I've been back to those cabinets maybe 12 times and have seen maybe 4 different multitools in them. Now that I know which planet to do a reload on I might actually get it.

[finite scaffold]

Every body has a seperate MT pool: space station, moons, planets. Usually if you know ones in a system you just gotta reload from a different body and check the S class cabinet until you find it

It's definitely a nice MT: experimental, has 2 connecting supercharged slots in two areas, overall a decent MT if you dont have better

[misty plinth]

I find this MT appealing enough to want to track it down

[finite scaffold]

Dont blame you, hopefully you didnt already grab one from that cabinet. Should still be there for 7.5m units if the cabinets available

[wintry void]

There is also an alien version at same box

[tender fulcrum]

I'm almost done with it!! last leg

[fierce crown]

I need to finish it lol
I’ve been putting expeditions off until last minute and have paid the price for it on cursed and the other one before it

[tired flume]

Did I get the expedition early on my switch? Because I already finished it on my switch

[opal glade]

ehhh? was nintendo switch players not playing the beachhead expedition already?

[tired flume]

What the fuck happened

I was

[opal glade]

i dont understand that announcement

[tired flume]

Yeah I thought we already had access to it before

I have access to the cross-save but I already had access to the expedition

[versed mantle]

I definitely was lol

We didn't need the update for the expedition, just for the cross-save stuff

[blazing fossil]

We were

I’ve told Red,

One thing to note however is that switch has access to the cross save feature now

Used to say this

[opal glade]

i thought the expedition came to me in a dream

i definitely dont wanna do all that work again

[wraith junco]

If u have all the rewards u dont need to.

[indigo falcon]

the cross save stuff is still in beta so there may not be slots open now. but there will be over time

[blazing fossil]

Yup, but it’s there now

[indigo falcon]

yep, switch players are on an equal footing with everyone else now for that feature 🙂

[shy nimbus]

Wait so

What's does the expedition reward do?

It just looks like it tells u how old some shit is lol

[indigo falcon]

huh? the normandy? you must be talking about something else

[feral warren]

how do i get frigate fuel?

[wraith venture]

Thank you for this. I apologize for the misunderstanding. I'll check with you first about Switch stuff next time.

[feral warren]

i dont have recipe for it

[indigo falcon]

you'll craft it, after you interact with the fleet command terminal

[shy nimbus]

It looks like a tiny red rectangular watch with a random set of numbers on it. I dunno if that's the normandy. But that's what I've seen lpl

[feral warren]

i did but its not doing anything

[indigo falcon]

talk to the navigator in that case, then try the terminal again

[indigo falcon]

uh you got a link? because the main reward is the normandy, a very cool frigate

[feral warren]

still not working

[shy nimbus]

Hmmm

(it's not my image btw)

[feral warren]

o how do i get that mission to trigger

[shy nimbus]

FUC

[shy nimbus]

I should make a Colosseum for pvp lol

[indigo falcon]

well let's try a workaround. did you get frigate fuel from a previous milestone? you should have

[shy nimbus]

I think you an get fuel from the Anomaly as a recipe

[feral warren]

i dont think so

[shy nimbus]

I dunno which category tho

[feral warren]

o ok

[indigo falcon]

oh, maybe you only get it by completing that one, meh.

[feral warren]

idk imma skip this milestone

and come back to it later

[indigo falcon]

I'll see if someone knows a workaround, I think a few other people had this happen

[indigo falcon]

so to clarify, you tried the terminal in the fleet command room and it did ntohing, right? how about the fleet command console in the main command area?

[feral warren]

ya both did nothing

[shy nimbus]

I think he's just tryna learn how to make fuel lol

[feral warren]

thx

[blazing fossil]

Oh…that’s a responsibility

[indigo falcon]

hmm f you have a spare salv frigate module, you could go to the upgrade console and spend it on one of the recipes

[feral warren]

ooo ok thx

[halcyon sundial]

Hm is the Normandy expedition repeated again?

[hollow shore]

Yes, but with some changes

[halcyon sundial]

Ah

Is it worth doing again?

Check the pins for the milestones and main rewards, then see for yourself

[warped blade]

Can some one tell me the corrordinates for the 4 rendevous point, ive been warping for the past 3 days passing 50+ systems a day, im tired and want this game to be fun again. sorry for asking, im just tired

[hollow shore]

Check this pin: #nms-expedition message

[naive veldt]

can anyone help with "catch uncommon frozen world fish"? Caught 4 now on the same world and it says I've only completed 1

[low jackal]

just keep fishing
the milestone require fish that only appear in frozen world

uncommon fish that appear on all world don't count

[naive veldt]

yeah sticking to frozen only - just caught a second! so I think it has to be 5 different types

[radiant cipher]

There are uncommon fish that appear on any world, those don't count.

[wanton frigate]

You can catch multiples of the same one as long as it's a frozen-only uncommon or better

Make sure you're using mealworms or better as bait.

[naive veldt]

Got like 4 of the same fish and only ticked off 2 for the quest??

[ocean gorge]

You get frigate fuel recipes the first time you interact with your fleet command module (just approach and interact)
This tripped me up for a short bit too, lol, even though I’ve used freighters and frigates for some time now😅 Might’ve been useful to pin that in the main list of mission pins somewhere for those new to freighters and frigate missions but idk🤷‍♀️

I don’t remember seeing it, that is

[wanton frigate]

Don't know what to tell you - I've got 3 different uncommon icy fish in the catalogue (page 4 in wonders \ fishing catalogue) but I caught two of them twice.

Maybe the game just cuts Switch players a break 🤷

[naive veldt]

could well be this 😂

[indigo falcon]

you can catch the same uncommon frozen-biome fish four times and it should count all four. but do check the description of the fish you catch, it has to specify that the fish is only in frozen biomes

[naive veldt]

ah only in frozen. that will be it then

[indigo falcon]

just keep fishing!

[ocean gorge]

It took me a bit, I was using the diurnal bait at first, then when it ran out I switched to just mealworms or whatever they’re called (the basic bait you can craft). I was fishing fairly shallow, dunno if that had anything to do with it, but eventually I got it done

[naive veldt]

Done! Thanks for the encouragement peeps.

[cursive willow]

is the cursed expedition still running

[frank galleon]

No, currently Beachhead

[cursive willow]

save editor it is

[opaque hinge]

I seem to be stuck on the discover star systems. The ‘uncharted” nothing seems to count for it.

[indigo falcon]

got to fnid ones no one has been to. try jumping max warp in random direction a couple times, summon the anomaly, ask for black hole coords, couple more max warp jumps and that likely will put you in a region no one's been in yet

[wanton frigate]

MP off, black hole and a full tank of gas did that one for me.

They really didn't make finding the Myth Beacon easy, if not for the pins here I don't think I'd have ever figured it out. Thanks pins!
Done!

[delicate galleon]

Hello, I seem to have an issue
anyone knows why? 🤔

Where do I get that thing?

[wanton frigate]

You get it in Phase 5. Are you there yet?

If yes, claim the relevant milestone.
If not, chill! You're not missing out on anything

[delicate galleon]

Does this mean I'm in phase5? I arrived at the point 5?

aah

I did not collect the reward. Thanks!

[wanton frigate]

See you in ten mins when you can't find the myth beacon! 😉
(read the pins, it's a lifesaver!)

[delicate galleon]

Will do, thanks!

[quaint urchin]

I am not trying to be a smarty pants, I'm just pointing out how important it is to read the objectives. See this screen shot:

[wanton frigate]

Which I did. And it's a very very long list of stuff that it's buried in.

One might expect that a key quest item that has no other functional use might be offered as a temporary front menu item, like using the dosimeter at a site.

[remote thunder]

problem is that "select anomalous research mission"

people will read that, switch to it, instead of remaining on collective counsciousness, which actually has the needed and right hint ("goto qs shop, buy myth beacon")

<:info:850810445577453658> Storing aka Packaging installed tech/modules

Cursor over an installed tech or module, then press "Store Technology".

Shared by: bkay201 Contributor(s): Atlas Emissaries

[remote thunder]

you can store installed tech/modules, yep, place them in exosuit cargo, get into new ship, and install them on new ship

whatever ship you have equipped you can copy back to primary, if you started from existing save

[warm gyro]

Oh cool. I`m on my freighter and the old ship I just got out of another ship came in and morphed with it lol

It`ll be gone, if I can get back in and store this stuff:-) tyvm

[remote thunder]

yeah, sometimes ships land on top of each other - a visual bug, but shouldn't happen if you don't have multiplayer enabled

[opaque hinge]

Okay thank you I will try that

[delicate galleon]

Is there a way to see if a system was already discovered?

on the galactic map I mean

[remote thunder]

this wont always happen ofc, but if a player has completely renamed the system from its proc gen name, and uploaded it - when you cursor over that system in the galaxy map, and just wait for a few seconds, you'll see it updating names. that tells you someone else discovered and uploaded it.

tips:

Make sure you visited the station of the last rendezvous system you've been to, take a few warps away from expedition systems (up/down/left/right, you pick), then get black hole coordinates from Polo@Space Anomaly, and go through it. Finally, warp again away from that position at the current max range of your ship, 1-3 times - that should take you into undiscovered areas.

[delicate galleon]

I'm trying to do the milestone but I've jumped through like 4 black holes so far

and everything is discovered

[remote thunder]

remember to warp down/up/left/right, away from the black hole region

don't just stick around it

most naturally, systems near it will be discovered already

don't just warp towards the core or away from the core

look at the galaxy map star clusters, warp down/up/left/right - some 500, 1000LY away from the black hole system

[wise meteor]

Someone said earlier if you turn off multiplayer, every system you find not previously visited by you will be new. Don't know if true.

That milestone took me ages

[stray needle]

that is true also if you turn off your internet that also works

[wise meteor]

I headed for galaxy centre and eventually started finding undiscovered systems

[wise meteor]

Can you still breathe without the internet? 😉

[stray needle]

yes

[remote thunder]

not multiplayer; would have to disconnect from internet/go offline to disconnect from the online discovery services server, which is a different connection than multiplayer

[quaint urchin]

I just went about 1000 light years to the right from the Galaxy map in the Rendezvous 4 system to a pirate system and it hadn't been discovered. Then I did short jumps to nearby systems. I had better luck with pirate and uninhabited systems as well. Note: If you need Indium or Emeril to upgrade your freighter's warp capability you can upgrade your Starship and go to the appropriate systems in that. For some reason the Freighter upgrades require the materials you get from those systems to be able to warp there.

[remote thunder]

can see that connection state in the discoveries tab, lower left

For some reason the Freighter upgrades require the materials you get from those systems to be able to warp there.
fwiw, has always been this way, and mostly because normally, you'd have a ship with that ability before that

that said,

buried caches can drop cadmium, emeril and indium

allowing player to rng into a indium drive, whether for ship or freighter, without having step foot outside yellow stars

[quaint urchin]

Wow, I got dual Travellers! (Just make sure you don't ask both where they are from else the marker for the second one might not show up)

[remote thunder]

never ask for a 2nd grave marker in the same system without having cleared first one for sure

well i was able to complete cursed expedition few days after it launched, while i was thinking twice about going beachhead expedition

Hi all, on discoveries tab I can't exchange anything for nanites, can some1 help?

[remote thunder]

basically, all discovered by other players. you could go for the zoology extra nanite reward, scan all fauna on a planet then press the indicated button (i recommend doing it on planets with 1-6 fauna, no more than that or might take a lot of time to do). remember that you can also sell uneeded upgrade modules for nanites. or refine stuff, like radiant shards (obtained from dissonant planets).

[twilit talon]

i have scanned all fauna on 1 planet and still couldn't get nanite for that

[remote thunder]

need to press that extra nanite bonus reward button

in the fauna view of the planet

press or press&hold, depending on settings

[red peak]

When does the expedition end?

[quaint urchin]

November 21st ( you can type !Expedition in #bot-spam to check)

[red peak]

@quaint urchin thank you

[quaint urchin]

The Weekend Nexus mission is up. When starting the Expedition off of your primary save you can double dip the 1800 weekend Nexus quicksilver. Do it in both and earn the Quicksilver twice (3600 total once you complete the Expedition and the currencies transfer back to your primary). It isn't a difficult mission and you can cheese it if you have 12 Living Pearls in your Exosuit Inventory (remember to bring some via the Terminal if just starting). Once you land and get out of your ship it will direct you to the turn location if you already have them. There is also a Crashed Freighter at the landing site if you haven't completed that Milestone yet.
Note: The initial screen in the Nexus said I would be collecting Storm Crystals, but once I selected the mission it changed to Living Pearls.

If you have not started the Expedition yet and intend to do so and double dip the Quicksilver, start the Expedition first before starting the Nexus mission. Then proceed in the Expedition until after your first warp so you can summon the Anomaly. Once inside of the Anomaly use the options menu to Return to Primary save and complete the Nexus mission there. If you are really feeling dedicated you can even scan all Fauna on the planet for an extra 4000 Nanites.
Note: If you scan all fauna on your Primary save it will count for your Expedition save also. Just claim the extra Nanites in the Discovery Tab under Fauna once you reach the Nexus Mission planet in your Expedition save.

[warm gyro]

i CAN`T SEE ALL THE STORAGE i MADE IN MY FREIGHTER

Sorry caps new KB, again

I can`t type lol. I have a cover on caps lock made from SS of an old floppt disc:)

In my freightor storag room? I can see them. Not when I am away from freighter, meaning the new ones and original freighter stor slots don`t connect

[craggy echo]

I missed the fishing update. How go I catch 5 uncommon fish in frozen planets?

[hollow shore]

Find a frozen planet with water, use your rig to start fishing. Bait can be applied, but is not a requirement. Not all fish caught will count. Rarity is one of the requirements, the other is actually being a fish unique to the frozen biome.

[craggy echo]

Thank you. Any suggestions on which planet will have water? I’m on a frozen planet which doesn’t seem to have any water…

[warm gyro]

I`m on a frozen planet how do I find water? Just only if it sayd in planet info frpm space?

Oh, same as kit lol

[hazy sparrow]

If you have quest selected, I think it indicates viable planets. I think there's one in Rendezvous 3 system.

[warm gyro]

Oh so can finish that phase 2 when in phase 3? tyvm

[hazy sparrow]

Dang fishing quests, took me 40 casts, 30 with spicy chum, to get 5 uncommon or better ice fish.

[warm gyro]

Thanks for that also:)

[hazy sparrow]

Almost any mission can be done at any time unless specifically dependent on a prior condition (most of phase 5 in this expedition). I was almost completely done except for ice fishing (and the 8 systems of course) before leaving the starter system.

[lusty slate]

But always do the rendezvous in order.

[warm gyro]

TY

[gloomy night]

Yeah and I had to catch “rare” fish to count as “uncommon”. I found that confusing

[hazy sparrow]

Informative, I had always used those terms interchangeably. The royal is definitely my favorite configuration. I don't think I've ever even SEEN a guppy, or don't remember because it's so uninteresting to me.
Aside from ball and squid, are there any other types of exotic (excluding sentinels, which I classify as their own thing as there are SO many variants)?

[ocean gorge]

Exotics come in two main categories: squid and “ball” exotics
The ball exotics further differentiate as I mentioned into the guppies, mosquitoes, and the Royals.
Squid are the most rare to come across. Some will have better luck than others with their rng😅

Each system has one exotic (from the aforementioned kinds). If you are interested in hunting them, although this really applies to hunting any ship type (apart from interceptors, which require specific dissonant planets in a dissonant system, although the planetary biome can’t be dead or something else, unusual biome perhaps) visiting a trade post is generally better than trying to wait at the space station (imo anyway); land your ship to the side somewhere so you don’t occupy one of the landing spots at the trade post, giving ships the maximum opportunities to land there.

There’s probably a FAQ you can run in #bot-spam for further info about ship hunting, don’t want to get more offtopic about it here since this is for expedition talk😉 But feel free to ask more in the main channel #no-mans-sky as there’s plenty of people who can answer questions about exotics or any other type of ship

[devout adder]

how longs normandy here for

[tall vector]

Guys I'm stuck at the "discover 8 systems", because almost every system has already been discovered because of the expedition. What can I do?

I tried to travel via black hole, got out, and the system was already discovered.

[opaque hinge]

I had to go through 2 black holes and then warped from there. They are out there waayyyy out there. 😀

[zealous tundra]

Do i need to MAKE warp cells for the orbital exocraft materializer? I don't see anywehre to buy the stuff

[long chasm]

Has the current Expedition been extended? The end date on here says Nov. 21st, and others seem to think it got extended until the 27th. Also I'm seeing screenshots of peoples game saying '2 weeks left'. Any insight or clarification is appreciated.

[long chasm]

The construction recipe does call for 3 Warp Cells.

[blissful onyx]

Make them or find in a atlas station

[zealous tundra]

I don't even know how id get to atlas station, no hyperdrive atm

[ocean gorge]

The black hole systems will (almost assuredly) be discovered, you’re using them to move further away and at that point, use them as a jumping off point to start exploring even further away form the expedition area

[warm gyro]

I should not open/explore every single little building I find right? Let others explore them?

I don`t see what it gets me but wasted time 🙂

[zealous tundra]

If i cant use the hyperdrive and i don;t ahve a blueprint then how am i supposed to make it?

nvm, i was trying to use the refiner for it but i forgot crafting can happen in inv

[marble robin]

Not sure if anyone said this but go offline

[twilit moss]

Expedition related material for this channel.

Can repost in #no-mans-steak🥩

[marble robin]

If you click go offline and then do the 8 systems you can discover any system again. And breeze thru it

[tall vector]

where is this setting to go offline? I'm on pc.

[marble robin]

If youre pc, not sure. I assume the game still works for pc if the internet is turned off. It might be as simple as just turning your wifi off on the computer while you do the milestone. But idk. Sorry i cant help in that

Im on console

[inland monolith]

I kept warping away and had more luck going to green/blue systems (I installed the drives) till I got them all

[zealous tundra]

I see in the pins there are POIs with Glyphs .. are these shortcuts to the systems for rendevous and how do i find them/use them?

[quaint urchin]

You don't really need to use them unless you've travelled way off course and didn't visit any space stations or drop a base.

However, to use them you need to collect the Glyphs first.

There are Travellers randomly in space station and asking where they are from for 100 Nanites will get you a marker to their Unknown Grave.

When you visit the grave and interact with it you'll get a Glyph.

Repeat that 16 times...

[zealous tundra]

seems like more trouble than just warping a few times

[quaint urchin]

Indeed

[languid spoke]

I have no clue how this could end up in my roster during the expedition

[remote thunder]

sounds like you got in a ship at a space station without paying a pilot for it?

[void cairn]

I'm catching uncommon frozen fish and the counter isn't going past 1/

[remote thunder]

see pinned post <#nms-expedition message>

[languid spoke]

i never bought a ship during the expedition, only did minimal repairs on the few i bothered to pick up while i found them, so no cluie how it ended up in my roster

[icy frigate]

anyone able to help me get the Normandy? It's been several months since I last played and I've been afraid to get back in cause of all the new stuff that gets added

[languid spoke]

this ship should not even spawn during the expedition

[void cairn]

I know. It counted 1. I reloaded game after many didn't count and it's still not counting.

[remote thunder]

it's very much the same game at heart still - if you've ran missions before, then expedition milestones aren't so different. we can complete many milestones "out of phase" to get access to rewards that might be of help to progress and complete other milestones, but normally the flow goes milestones in order, from phase to phase. i think you should just hop in.

there's pinned posts to help, there's always someone around to help as well

[icy frigate]

I rarely ran missions

[remote thunder]

can you screenshot the description of a fish that should have counted but didn't?

[icy frigate]

most of my stuff was attempting to do one of the dozen questlines in my inventory before something else catches my attention like a goldfish

I have no clue how expeditions work

[remote thunder]

season like content, like one big quest, that has specific systems to go through, completing objectives along the way: see <#nms-expedition message>

phase and final expedition rewards are unlocked account wide, and can be claimed once per save, in any save under the same account

[icy frigate]

so it's like a big long quest?

[remote thunder]

yeah

and at the end, you get the normandy

[icy frigate]

and I start it at the Anomaly?
or whatever the multiplayer hub was I forget

[remote thunder]

take a look at that post i linked above - those are the phase and final rewards - those are unlocked wide, even if you start from a new save. the only reason to start from existing save is being able to transfer items/copy ship and multitool between primary save and expedition "overlay"

starting from existing could be nice to primary saves that are still early on

since at the end, they'd get to merge currency earned in expedition, among other things, back into primary save

[icy frigate]

that's a whole lotta words
I got only one save so I don't think any of that affects me

[remote thunder]

if you got one save, with access to anomaly, you can start expedition from it

we can have up to 15 saves side by side

my advice is

goto your save

and anomaly

interact with the expedition terminus

and read what it says

e.g.

but you also don't have to start expedition from here, can start it from new game, just won't be able to do that ^ - options
