Did you exit Adrift at the terminal in the Anomaly ?
Any Antivir app which is blocking the IP ?
Malewerbytes f.e.
@fluid herald
No gifs in this channel please
which world has the predator we need?
rdv4 Lungleb, Erkent planet
Found it by searching this Discord for the milestone name, btw
milestone name, nice idea. Thanks, I'll remember that
Turns out I found another valid creature
Next to the second drop point
Made a base for it title is '9.0 pva creature + 2nd drop point!!!!!'
Will make a terminus now
Or not? Don't have the BP yet damn
Well either way
Apex Predator and Second Drop Point!!!!
System: Amenni-Akr
(2nd Drop Point System)
Planet: Tasburyd W46
Base name: Apex Predator + Second Drop Point!!!!!!!!!
Location: Directly next to the second Drop point
Use it to find a 9.0+ PVA creature
You should consider putting the milestone name in your message here so people who search by that as the other guy suggested find it. Super helpful of you, thanks!
About to put a terminus there, and will do that too, thanks
Don't have energy sources rn lol, I guess it'll have to wait
Pfft I got so many warp upgrades I can just go straight from point 2 to 3 and skip a whole star
Are there any known locations to do the blood in the water milestone?
The deep sea monstrosity thing
No one?
Look for red icon in the water.
Also RV4, different planet #nms-expedition message
Okay now I just need to kill corrupt sentinels
Qihar-Himal (near the final droppoint system) is allegedly dissonant so that's nice
They still seem more interested in air-thrusting than attacking me. This exp is bugged (Dong-dong-tchk!)
Yippie
I just got a freighter
Weird
I can't talk to the captain to get it
There we go that was odd
Were you able to get them signed up?
I got the freighter ya
Cool.
Yippie a Dreadnought immediately attacked and I had no clue what to do
Dreeadnoughts are nice if you can get em i got one in my single player one
For anyone looking for Dissonant Planets!!!
Base: Banuely Outpost
Planet: Yotirix XXII
System: Qihari-Himal
Next to the 4th drop point system
Yippie I've nearly done all the milestones :3
Does your freighter require warp fuel for you to summon it to another system?
How does the community objective work?
U do your your part and add to the pile
I don't see how we're gonna complete these liquidation milestones with the shortened expedition timeframe.
We're almost 50% through the very first milestone with nearly 2 days in and we have to complete what five?
I did it all in 5 and a half hours
HG can change optional milestone speed meter if needed
There's no way to complete it solo. It's based on community
Anyone know what's up with the optionals though? (First community event I've done)
The optional milestones
No that's what I'm talking about
You have to wait for everyone else to join in and kill their share. But a lot of people don't redo the expeditions because they've already completed it. Plus we are on a shortened timeframe to complete it. Let's hope they realize that because I want all the rewards
And they have to be completed consecutively, so you can't work ahead and do your share for each set until the previous one is complete completed
That sucks
I like the idea if we had the full timeframe, but they should have shortened it already. All good though, they are great developers so I'm hoping it pans out
Mhm I'm sure it'll be finee
I lost my save before getting the game on steam from a friend yesterday so it's great to now have a good ship and a heavily upgraded s class MT
For sure! Aside from the expedition rewards, you can catch up in this game rather quickly.. i'm very thankful for the redux expeditions
So, I prefer my Atlas staff over the Liquidators one. If I copy it, and add all the expansions and modules I get in liquidators, will all those upgrades copy back to my main save?
Good question

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

Did you get this solved?
If not; have you taken out everything you transferred from the previous expedition and then selected to finish the previous expedition from that terminal?
So if I wanted to transfer as many items as possible through the expedition terminal, how would I go about doing that?
as far as I know there is a method to take from the expedition inventories back to the main save ones as many items as you want but when you start there's no way to put more items in the terminal
are the optional milestones important? finished everything except those ones, but idk if i should end the expendition
I'm wondering the same ↑
i don't know since I haven't even started but imo there's nothing to lose, the exp finishes in almost 2 weeks, you have all the time you need
AFAIK you can buy the rewards for the optionals for Quicksilver at the
merchant
oh i didnt know that
You can buy them yes. It's somewhat expensive
you'd have to 1) end expedition (if you don't care about optionals, if you do then you must wait till community research is complete) to release lock on exp terminus stash, if needed 2) doing 1) releases lock on exp terminus stash, 3) add items/tech in, back out, save, pause/options/return to primary, goto exp terminus, take items out, save, resume expedition -- repeat 3) as many times as needed
Get the daily quicksilver missions from nexus on both expedition and main safe, and don't forget the weekend missions on both as well. Then just buy them
Looks like 7400 quicksilver for the legs arms and body
If u are low on qs Better to do exp and Do your part . To save qs
my optionals are going super slow, I'm doing my part as much as I can but still stage 1 is at 40 percent.
In og exp u had to do like 50 kills per milestone so u should have no problem with doing your part.
I've done hundreds and am still on Stage 1
They're community milestones, meaning that other people have to be doing their part too to make them go fast. You can't do it all alone
ok, so there is a chance that we fail the milestones
Hg can speed up it if needed
Probably not, HG can (and probably would) change the requirements if it looked like that
got it
so when i say stage 1 is at 40 percent, that's likely what everyone else sees as well
If it's like the first time around there's also a limit per day for how many kills are counted. So do something like 200 kills per day and don't worry about it beyond that. You can go back to your main save (through the options menu) to do some other things while you wait for the next day and adding more kills to "doing your part"
Lol
reported
is there any reason to do an expedition redux if you did the original and finished it?
Fun? Monies?
monies?
quicksilver, nanites etc
oh quicksilver, something i've literally never used in my 20 hours of playing, don't even know what it's for
cool cosmetics
quicksilver is only for cosmetics?
There is summary after the exp that will convert your achivements to currency
Pics from old exp
yes.
start doing the nexus quicksilver dailies, its worth it and takes 5 minutes.
and if u start an expedition on your main save, youll have twice the quicksilver
yeah i'm using my mainsave, how do you do nexus dailies?
From nexus on anomaly
literally next to the quicksilver npc and expedition computer
i haven't done much on the anomaly, only researched some upgrades for my exosuit and ship
Interact with the mission cube thing
ok will do
also, exocraft are really fun, but seem like they don't help me with much, i think i'm missing something
talk to the quicksilver npc and browser what he has to sell 🧐☺️
lots of cool stuff
will do
you can buy lots of upgrades for exocrafts at all space stations and outlaw stations
but for what?
well better stats meaning better help?
same for your own exosuit, your spaceship or multitool: its all about getting the best stuff overall
gotcha
Exocrafts have some tech like scanners that are usefull
I use them only for scanners.
oh really, that's cool
right: the nautilus for example can scan for sunken freighter, or ancient ruins
How do you do fat of the land? I tried terrain manipulator but that doesn’t count
super efficient
is that the one for 650 ressources?
is that the 650 resources?
Need to change mode on terrain manipulator
Ya
big group of sodium is how i did it
not deposit
i just used my mainsave multitool with stacked modules lol
bunch of sodium flowers
☕
@wary siren fwiw, this milestone is incredibly easy if multitool has optical drill tech installed
(which can be researched in the anomaly, if you opt for it)
Ya I’ll go for that thanks, I was looking at a guide and this was one of the first it was showing to get…which seems abit tough with no mods
As long as you stop mining before it overheats, and start mining again when it gets to about 50% heat, you will do it
the purged by fire 1 is a community thing right?
should i wait for it to be completed before leaving the expedition?
If u want the rewards for the milestones yes
should i?
what does a supercharged slot give?
boosts stats of modules in it
can you recommend whats good to install on it?
on exosuit
I use two for pulse engine, and two for weapons
oh i use jetpack stuff in it mainly
oh jetpack
Jetpack
the best one?
boils down to your personal preference and what you mainly do in the game
thanks, i think the jetpack is also good for me.
ye you cant go wrong with that 🫡
is there anywhere i can see which rewards we get for each of the holiday reduxes?
just wanna check if theres anything new besides the original stuff i already have.
what does that page or graph that shows long/lat and glyphs of this expedition? Start and the phases?
It`s way up, old messages, and pinned
tia
sorry wrong chat
thank you!
only redux this year that had different rewards compared to the original run and redux was exp2's redux; exp12-16 will have the same rewards as their original runs afaik
I'm sad I missed that one.
which expedition is active?
Liquidators
For now it is liquidators. Jan 8 is expedition aquarius. Jan 22 its cursed
Each exped will have a 2 week limit
Can I copy my atlas staff over to the expedition, add all the modules and expansions, and copy it back to my main without losing the new stuff? I know it’s already S class
I think so
Anyone doing liquidators? Found a reddit guide that said there should be whispering eggs around the building where you find your ship. Can’t find any on the planet and pretty much wherever I land and di anything (save on waypoint, enter building) I get a horror spawn. But not whispering eggs…
I found whispering eggs where I found my ship.
In fact, I think every planet I've landed on has been infested.
All the starting system planets have been infested and had spawn after spawn but not actual eggs. Warped to next system though and eggs ahoy!
Weekend quicksilver mission - build an outpost. I love these quests sometimes, like when you're told to make some buildings and some hydroponic trays and it completes. Don't worry about the whole wiring and electricity thing, that's just for people who actually want to use the outposts 😆
If I complete the standard milestones but want to wait and participate in the optional goals — can I still pause and resume the expedition at that point, or will leaving end it and lock me out?
can I still pause and resume the expedition at that point
yes; can return to primary simply by pause/options/return to primary
remember to save before you do
... is anyone having trouble with the optional goals?
i feel like my kills arent getting registered
remember that those are community research milestones
you can do your kills, your minimum kills for each one, but it will only let you claim them when community research completes
#bot-spam message
We might be able to get it done as long as we finish one before the end of today and keep at a similar pace
I've killed a handful of hundreds of them in the last 3 days but I'm not sure I'm gonna keep doing that for 14 days
Wow. The optional one is moving slow this time.
I'm killing as many as I can. This is fun!
What we killing?
You can also get the egg that starts the mission to get your living starship
It won't allow you to do your minimum for any goal until the first one is completed. As I have gotten messages while killing during stage two, that it is unable to be initiated until the first one is complete
But I have been watching this chat now and it seems like everybody's experiencing a very slow pace toward the community goals. I'm sure this will be addressed by the devs
ah, okay - i seemed to remember that personal kills done counted regardless - all we had to do was to select the milestone when completed (community wide), and it would register the previous kills immediately, maybe i'm misremembering
it's been a while for sure
Yeah I only found this out after an hour of killing them. In fact I didn't even know there was probably a daily cap. But the little message on the bottom of the screen says you have not completed stage one something insinuating it having to be first.
where is the list of things to bring to speedrun this expedition?
check this post <#nms-expedition message>, should have you covered on all the basics
but is there anything good for this especific expedition?
I brought a bunch of Runaway Mould and Hadal Cores so that I could copy in my main multitool. It's helped a lot.
if you're bringing decent/good/awesome levels of gear, you'll do just fine with what's on that list i think
last expedition had a mission that would have helped if i brough some mats
thats why i was asking
is there something like that on this one?
actualy the one before last
not from what i remember/can see here <#nms-expedition message> and next posts
exp14 is combat focused
those are the things i already bring anyway
i like to bring the bare minimum
i just wanted to rush
because new year comming
and i dont want to get caught in not being able to play
remind me
how many stacks of runaway?
for ship + mt
The only thing I wish I would have brought was a couple counterfeit circuits and a few glass, for some tech I installed. Otherwise it's a pretty basic expedition
why?
Because counterfeit circuits can be difficult to find. They are for the cargo scan deflector. Which I found myself using. And the glass was for a pulse upgrade. You can get this stuff it just saves time if you have it.
wdym pulse
Pulse engine tech
if i bring my own ship i wont need that
I think you need about 5K nanites to bring both.
Bring over suspicious packages. You'll get more nanites per stac.
Though it requires a vendor.
More than a full stack of Runaway Mould? that's 1998 nanites right there.
help please with the plasma launcher....I don't know how to use it.
i got 5k nanites last time with something like 17 sus packets
How many sus packets in a single stack?
Here is that message…
50
Yeah i am farming some, i just dont want to overfarm it
the issue is not to farm here
you could even only bring a stack of x-class hazard, worth 720 nanites each
is to process it in the other side
So, 720 nanites each, and the max stack is 50? Wow.
That's still epic.
sus packets themselves stack up to 50
but they're items, subject to rng inside exp to open them up
Ok, right. Packets are 50, the modules they process into are 10.
I was confused a bit there.
Pirate farming > Mold Farming. Becsuse you upgrade your gear too
good evening, sorry if offtopic but where do your photos store after taken ingame?!
Oh no, you buy the packets
Trade in scrap metal for them.
Too much work, scrap ships, sentinel ones preferrably, then buy.
i just found a cool looking sentinel A class, would like to share
They should show up in your steam library, then you can save/copy them to wherever you want.
What type of system are you playing on?
pc
Yes should be steam library. My PS 5 saves in my screen captures for PS
i'd recommend getting s-class plasma launcher upgrade modules installed for greater aoe range, as well as getting paralysis mortar. you have to get 3 kills with the same grenade. for example, you could stand on top of a building, shoot a whispering egg down below while having paralysis mortar equipped side by side with plasma launcher. once biohorrors spawn, (secondary) fire paralysis mortar, then while they're rooted down, fire plasma launcher at the ground, just a bit before the closest biohorror to you of the stunned ones - it will bounce a couple times, then go boom
i've taken multiple now and it doesn't show there for some reason
I'm on Linux, and the photos show up when I look at the Steam Library page for the game.
Make sure you have permissions set correctly, if they are involved
i had a few screenshots done before today and it shows there...
just go steam client>view>recordings&screnshots, select nms, right click a screenshot, then press show on disk
you can also double check if you've got a different folder for screenshots in steam settings
thanks, i will try that
You mean you can buy the packets at Pirate stations?
Yup, and Trade Stations, Collosal Archives, Minor Settlements, anywhere there is a non-player controlled trade terminal.
You can drop 5 save beacons per planet and set up a farming route, or just get a bunch of pirate systems.
some contraband agents will have up to 13 packets of the kind we want (that i've seen), same for trade terminals
I've got two Collosal Archives near my main base, so I'll check that out sometime.
(NOTE: if you build a base that overlaps a terminal it deletes all pirate stock and replaces it with galactic standard)
Only pirate ones though
this expedition is by far the easiest so far
the optional phases involves killing those big bugs, right?
killing biohorrors
Squishies
infestation ones?
no need to kill brood mothers for the optional milestones
biohorror kills count too
Sentinel also count, don't they?
uhhhh don't recall
it says so in the description
so they should count too
oh yeah, they do
sorry, now i remember - yep, sentinels, biohorrors and bugs
not corrupted sentinels though iirc, that's why i was having trouble recalling for sure
@fading kiln
No gifs in this channel please
i wonder how many bugs you have to kill to increase the progress by at least 1%
no idea
those optionals are the only thing left from the expedition for me
Has the first one bee finished yet?
i had 75% when logged out today
gunter says t1 at 80%
Command?
What does laylaps do?
various things i'm not too sure about, also does some backup for/help take load off gunter
And what's the check progress command?
!tier, sorry
!tier-
w/o the `
@main wyvern Please use this command in #bot-spam.
Anyone on the expedition wanna group up and help eliminate some sentinels to go towards the community progress?
To do the Fire in the Hole milestone, do I have to use the plasma launcher? Can I use the Geology Cannon or something?
not sure about geocannon, but with plasma launcher+2 s-class plasma launcher modules+paralysis mortar it was easy enough getting 3 kills with 1 nade
Oh okay I was not seeing plasma launcher modules but I guess I should go searching around more
I don’t normally use any of that stuff so I don’t pay attention and had no idea
@woven shadow I just did that one use the plasma launcher and aim at three fauna that are grouped together 🙂
Yeah I guess I could feed them and get them to follow me and then be a horrible jerk
Lol 😂
I mean, I did think of that
But I was not sure if fauna would count and also I don’t like killing fauna
I may do it just this once
Just do it when know ones looking hahaha
I have some extra fuel if you want it@woven shadow
Thanks for offering, I’m okay on fuel.
All right I did it, and I did not have to kill fauna
ah, there’s a dissonant system for the next milestone
so you can sell tech upgrades for nanites in this expedition? If so, I'll get suspicious packets from pirate stations to take with me into the expedition.
Even better: forbidden Sentinel upgrades
They are worth a lot more
You can buy them from Autophage camps usually.
I’m going to stock up on some for next time
Potentially stupid question: will community milestones get rewarded post-hoc if I finish and leave the expedition, or do I just have to wait + contribute?
I built a Minotaur but left it on a planet…I goto summon it and it’s saying exocraft not owned?
If you don't have a freighter with the exocraft room, you'll need to rebuild the summoning station on each new planet you want to summon it on
My usual is build -> summon (should be automatic) -> delete for parts
Ok thanks I’ll try that
Pretty sure you have to wait and contribute.
Remember that you can go back to your main save through the Options menu if you started the expedition from the Anomaly Terminal
I just took on waves of Sentinels at one of their pillars, and a horde of biological horrors at the same time, all on a fiery planet with storms and low visibility
I figure out how to spin a good yarn from this and I will never have to buy my own drinks in a Vy’keen system ever again
Ahh, yeah. I already have the Liquidator Minotaur parts (bought em with QS from the last expedition), so I have nothing to actually wait for after the first milestone is completed.
I was wondering if anyone had living pearls been looking for armored clams when I reach destination they are not there I will trade for tainted metal
I can meet on the anomaly
You mean the armored clams aren't there?
It's weird I go to the location and no clam
Is it just me, or did Liquidators redux not take as long as other expeditions? I finished it inside 5 hours without even trying to speedrun it
That is weird
Been looking and Nada
I think I'll blame Polo
Which milestone requires Living Pearls?
I'm not even in the expedition, nor do I have MP enabled, sorry.
Hope you get the help you need. Might also be possible to get some help for that from #nms-lfg-or-trades , although one would assume that it'd be easier to find someone to trade with in the expedition here.
I wish you good luck
That doesn't need living pearls, you just need to find an Alluring Specimen
Now, if those aren't showing up...
And kill the monster in the water
Try saving, restarting your game, and then going to a different planet
Take the hadal cores, the monster will appear. Then you shoot it
Your MT works fine for that
Where do I find Haldal core
There's a big red icon that indicate the thing you need
Find an ocean, search for Alluring Speciments ... beware the horrors.
Ok
Hope ya like swimming
But it lure a deep sea monster
It did take me a solid half hour of swimming to find one
and yeah like the other guy said the icon will be in RED on the scanner.
Right - pin the milestone/quest, then look at it in the Log. It'll tell you what the people here did
Ok
to quickly find an ocean ... go to a space station go to the portal and search for bases that may already be built near Alluring specimen.
I'm at the ocean
not all oceans have alluring specimens also ...
I have the nautilus
even better
But need the pearl to finish the parts
OH that's why you need it
Yes
You don't need to use the Nautilus
I basically never use it for anything. Maybe for the scanner, but never actually travelling with it
One of the milestones should have given you some amount of underwater breathing modules for your exosuit - install one or two of them, make sure you have Oxygen and/or life support modules, and just swim it out
Especially after I got the thing that lets my spaceship land on water
I avoid all exocraft honestly ... unless the expeditions/logs make me do it.
My ship lands on water
fancy !
milestone 1 is at 88%
89% now!
\o/
can we take a moment to talk of what a menace this expedition minotaur is? i never destroyed sentinels so easily
I am installing Liquidator parts on my Minotaur
I need to get some more storm crystals and a Walker brain
rendevouz 2 had a stormy planet... i think... 🤔
R5 has a Boiling Planet with lots of storms, I just got my storm crystals there
Now I need the Walker Brain. Gotta go make trouble with some Sentinels
😆
is there a chart or guide that shows what counts towards the expedition score/tally at the end?
90%
LOL I found a system named “Three Cheers for the Convergence”
Is this what you are looking for? #nms-expedition message
There, my Minotaur is now equipped with all the Liquidator stuff
I can go squish gooblies in style
What are the rewards per phase for the community achievements?
you can view unclaimed rewards by hovering over the specific reward iirc
Not sure if the autophage category is correct on that btw, I've gone out of my way to try to gain autophage faction standing and it's not letting me. Prob has to do with Artemis questline in an expedition
Gotcha! Thanks!! Was just trying to decide if it was worth staying in the expedition after intimate phase 5 for the extra milestones/ rewards.
Wow, no idea that base parts built rewards nanites. 900 is quite a bit
bah you might as well, youre able to grind daily/weekend quicksilver while you wait too
Fair point. I started playing when the world’s part 1 released. this is my first expedition so I’m not sure what to expect haha. Was slightly intimidated by them at first so I missed out on the first few reruns. I’m glad I did this one though and I plan on doing the Cursed later next month. Wish I had done the last one for the vulture but it’s ok. I like the star runner I have
(The free one from Game Awards night )
ye i played on this game's launch for a few months then moved on to other games (we all know the state of the game at the time sadly lol)...came back to give it a try a month ago while the Omega Redux was kicking: i think it was the perfect time to get back into it after all this time...it's such a tremendously fun game now ☺️
love the expeditions concept!
id advice doing all expeditions, free goodies and exclusive ships are a must imo
ive been waiting for that Boundary Herald/Milenium Falcon ship very anxiously 😍
I’m glad I got into it this summer. I had always wanted to play but never pulled the trigger on buying it. Definitely glad I did. Well worth every penny including the copy I bought recently for switch as well. It’s an amazing game. I can’t get enough of it. Definitely will be doing all of the expeditions going forward now that the intimidation factor is gone and I’ll know what to expect next time.
That one’s cool for sure. I’m more interested in the Cthulhu like head in the cursed expedition. I’ll take the ship too though.
exactly what I was looking for.
TY !
The head is the best part
Mainly because my boundary herald has a glitch where the cockpit is see though so you can see straight to the ground underneath and it's so annoying!
oof that sounds horrible 😢
It's very frustrating, I've submitted a bug report but it hasn't been fixed
I think that the fact that my biggest complaint about this game is a single ships model being slightly broken shows how great it is though
which platform are you on?
you got me worried it will happen to me lol
I tried asking in nms-help but I feel this is a better platform, is Purged by fire in Liquidators a community effort? Also is there a grand total of what is needed to be done. I did my 50
Yes it is. If you want the optional rewards, finish all of the other milestones and just park in front of the terminal until they get done before you end expedition
Will be a few days
Thank you 🙂
Where is a good place to get this?
I did it before even getting in my ship for the first time
Just harvest whatever. Make sure your energy bar stays above 0% and below 100% and keep harvesting until you get it
If you overheat or stop harvesting it resets.
thank you for the help!
I feel like mining/collecting resources from a planet surface in this expedition gives more than usual
I literally shot a planet with my ship for like 10 seconds and was able to gather, I shit you not, 7000 ferrite dust, 2000 dihydrogen and 1000 oxygen
It was a very dense planet surface but thats still ridiculous
First optional milestone just finished.
@gaunt oyster
No stickers in this channel please
Do I need to complete the Expedition in order to transfer items back to my primary save? When the Omega redux ended I had completed the expedition but hadn't transferred back through the Anomaly yet... I loaded the game and found myself back in my primary save missing all of my expedition save's inventory (including the things I'd brought in with me at the beginning). This was the first time I've had this problem and I'm not sure if it was because (A) I was standing inside the Anomaly when the deadline passed, (B) the next redux started immediately back-to-back after my current one, skipping over my chance to use the terminal, or (C) user error (or a combination of all three). I've now gone into the Liquidators expedition to scoop up a few rewards I want to take back to my primary save (mostly expansion slots), but I don't want to have to complete the rest of the expedition when I already fully completed it on the original run. Thanks, all!
Did you put your inventory back into the expedition terminus, or just keep it in your inventory?
Just kept it in my inventory, but I never actually opted to return to my primary save and thought I would still get the chance to do that
Hello I thought sentinal pillars always had one walker guarding it. I am now on my second pillar and neither of them have a walker.
gotta kill all the sentinels and reach max Alert iirc
Dropzone 4 and these brood mothers still air-thrusting...
There are 2D flying fishes on planet. Not sure if pet-able
they are
Probably can't ride them though?
wow, now I gotta try
Does anyone know what percent the community is at for the optional objectives? Not on the game to check right now

Milestone 2
6%
According to Gunter
No problem
Morning! How much am I able to continue to contribute to the optional milestones? I already finished the main redux expedition and my counter for the optional milestones say "100 and counting" -- should I just keep killing bugs or is that more reliant on more people in the community doing the expedition?
There is a limit of how much a player can contribute per day and yeah it's reliant on other players adding their kills too
(I don't remember what the cap was in the original liquidators, 150 per player per day I think 🤔)
Ah okay, thanks. So I can still contribute each day, then.
Yep
That chart has the Nanites and Units reversed: So Base parts learned gives 120 Nanites, and base parts constructed gives 900 Units
Devilin Pixy has made an updated chart that have them corrected, though I don't remember where it was posted exactly
I sneaked in and stole the updated chart
Just don't tell anyone 
I should travel to more systems to squash gooblies and Sentinels then
I will get more rewards for more traveling and seeing planets
Although it’s not like I need the nanites in my main save
I can never decide which ship i want to keep because the one hello games gave us is amazing every time i find an interceptor they get better and betterer, anyone else have that issue? and the atlas scepters look awesome but this expeditions multitool and the look alike sentinel one i got from the camp are insane. which this save gave me three interceptors so far because every time you land the brood comes out and the corrupted drones get pissed and they don't give up. and these drones give you ships instead of pillars when you go through enough waves. but then unlike a non dissonant planet once you shut a pillar down the sentinels stop. the corrupted ones keep on coming like evil energizer bunnies.
Wooo the first community milestone is done, great job folks

Im doing my part 🫡
Oh wow I actually found a dreadnought I can take command of
I don’t even have that in my main save!
trigger your next rescue battle in an outlaw system - as long as you already own a freighter, and capital freighters are the rescue targets
I might do that, although I am good with the freighter I have in my main save
Also I have put so many cargo expanders into it LOL
I would have to do that again for a dreadnought
If I have different expeditions completed on my PS5 vs my Switch, what happens when I put my Switch save on my PS5? Namely I have cartographers on my playstation save but all of this years on my Switch. Do they just merge or what? In theory my PS save is one traveler and my Switch one is another
Less concerned about settlements and more about that. What happens to my discoveries? Will I be considered my PS save and be unable to rename things I found on the Switch?
If you use the cloud-save they merge.
Or at least it did when I went from Switch -> Steam
Unfortunately if you have the Switch Preorder Exclusives those ARE NOT linked to the account.
I do not
Just 90% of my goodies are on my Switch save but I have a golden vector and a robot body from the expedition on my PS5 save.
hiii, I just finished clearing the first infestation but I think it’s bugged because it’s not letting me read the logs? after cleaning the fluids it just kicks me out without the dialogue
Is there some way to reset this particular mission or should I make a new expedition save :/
i'd suggest reloading restore point (probably made when you exited ship near dropzone), confirm it's waiting again for you to purge the site, probably - then disabling multiplayer, enter+exit ship, return to main menu, reload save via play game
Will try doing that!
let us know if it worked
It changed my quest location so I have high hopes
It works!!! Thank you, the multiplayer had to bug it somehow
Expeditions could be played without multiplayer?
Thanks
Good catch, I didnt even realize it was backwards when I reposted from bk
we did correct it, Pixy did post an updated one almost right after 🙂
this is the updated one, just in case - we're most likely going to add it to faq-expedition
Also dont know if you didnt catch it before, but I posted something about how I cant gain autophage faction rep when I tried for a couple hours yesterday
in non-exp modes?
Not sure if it has to do with not being able to do the artemis mission in a exped, but I tried for quite a while before I gave up
In exped
ah - yeah, most likely, since no they who returned completion
impossible to run that quest in exp
no main storyline to progress
So you might have to change your chart again, sorry 😆
which chart sorry?
If you guys did adrift or beachhead you can claim those frigates to get extra nanites in this expedition
The end of exped units/nanites chart that shows faction gains for autophage
Leviathan!
?
leviathan unique frigate reward from exp7
Oh didn't know that
I warped to the center during the previous expedition for no reason other than to see if I could.
Only started playing last November
🙂
Nice
all good 🙂 sorry i'm late with this, but welcome to the fold 😄
Thx, I was able to use a few black holes but they only pushed me about 7k each time. The relic gate always brought me back to the system at the beginning of the expedition no matter where I was in Euclid.
that's not unexpected
we've had at least 1 expedition in the past where any black hole would send players to starting system
Yeah, I thought it was a convenient way to get back there.
pretty cool i think, that the devs sometimes twist it up like that/similar fashion
So ah hmm. I just started the expedition, and I don’t have any idea where to get ferrite from. This planet doesn’t seem to have any. Am I missing something?
Should be, mine or punch rocks.
Well yeah, I just don’t see any rocks that have anything but salt. It’s weird.
Hmm, I haven't started it yet. Buuuuut.....try to find a cave.
There is one last ditch really hacky option to get ferrite.
I mean, there must be a way to get it properly. I just don’t see it.
Find Damaged Containers laying around. Tske the Rusted Metal.
Dismantle your Scanner.
Use Ferrite from Scanner to make Metal Plate and build portable refiner.
Refine Rusted Metal.
Rebuild Scanner.
Huh there’s an idea.
I found a little but not much. Need to search harder I suppose.
1 Rusted Metal refines to 2 Ferrite, so you need a decent stack to do anything major. But you can get enough to at least get off the planet to somewhere better.
There's some weird looking small rocks with tentacles sticking out of them and a glowing spot on the Starter Planet that have Ferrite Dust. Use your scanner to scan everything, especially where there are groups of things in a big clump. They like to hide stuff among the clumps to make it more fun to find.
Yeah I finally found them. Thanks!
Since bases swap over to your main when completing the expedition, does that include a vault abd items in it?
I should've expected worlds part 1 update would also kill resource bases built in past expeditions. Almost all player bases i've visited in the current redux expedition are dead.
Nope, storage units are instanced to the save, so that will not transfer over. The only way to transfer items is through the terminal where you started the expedition.
The storage units will be there, but they will have the contents same as in your primary save.
Why is this not triggering the "Fat of the Land" milestone? I did it without overheating.
Did u used mining beam?
yes.
No, it didn't
Hmm
Much easier to have it work on Metal Fingers.
Has anyone run across any planets with storm crystals near the route? I accidently totaled my Minotaur
You should be able to do it fairly easily with your ship shooting at a dense planet surface
watch the hint instead
do not look at that notification
-#

the hint will tell you
also, optical drill MT tech makes this milestone a cakewalk
be on a fairly dense planet with rocks at least and you'll do just fine
Where do you get the info for the optionals? I’m not on just now but it’s super vague with no real counter goal of killing?
Walking on cake just seems like it would be a sticky waste.
basically, community keeps doing kills, iirc there's a limit of 150 kills per day per player (not sure if still the same), once optional tier 1 completes, we can go ahead and do personal kill goal, and claim milestone
It’s showing current is 38% …individual kills 100 and counting for purge 2
How do I known if I’m done?
!tier
@remote thunder Please use this command in #bot-spam.
oh right, sorry guntie
that 38% is the community's progress - when it gets to 100%, we can all finally complete purge 2
How do I know when I’ve finished personally though
!tiers
@tiny gale Please use this command in #bot-spam.
only after it has completed community research of the current tier, will it let you do individual progress there it seems
If it says "x kills and counting" you've got your "required" kills for Purge 2. 150 for 3, 200 for 4, 250 for 5
When you haven't gotten enough for the specific milestone it should not say "and counting" IIRC
Ok cool

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

!tier should be a channel tbh
Basically formatted like [tier:#-percentage:##%]
Right under this channel
I have 2 extra interceptors if anone wants one
What do the multitool class upgrades actually do, in terms of stats?
Does it grant more slots/more damage/converts existing normal slot to supercharged slot?
For some reason the A class staff from omega has 20 slots and 2 supercharged. The c class starting multitool has 19 slots and 3 supercharged. Probably better to apply the upgrades to the starting multitool, right?
adds 1 more supercharged slot (may need to add more tech slots to reveal hidden ones), bumps to innate bonus stats when tool has any (depending on type), + increase on max inventory upgrade size
Wait, there are hidden supercharged slots? Did I interpret that right?
So when I apply the upgrade, it's not guaranteed to grant me 1 revealed supercharged slot?
the class upgrade, correct, no, not guaranteed to immediately reveal the supercharged slot granted by that class
Oh ok, so probably still a better choice (in the long run) to make my staff S class and bring it back
For the optional milestone in phase 2, do I have to be in the 2nd rendezvous system for my kills to count or do all of my kills count towards it?
This ^ I just finished phase 2 as well and am curios
what does the mission specifically tell you
Hello. Is there any currently uncompleted community milestones in this expedition?
I want to do my part!
we are currently in phase 2
halfway
I will catch up and do my part, then.
If I end the expedition, I can still participate and unlock the purged by fire stuff, right?
Looks like that is not correct, but waiting for final confirmation. Seems you can't end the expedition and still get optionals
100 kills and counting....
One message removed from a suspended account.
If you end the expedition then that's it, you can no longer contribute or unlock rewards from optional milestones
One message removed from a suspended account.
From my experience in Expedition 7 (the re-run one, at least), my expedition didn't end because the community milestone hasn't completed, and even then the progress got bugged, so even if I completed everything else and got their rewards, the save didn't convert until I load the save again after the time ends.
Got a random question about the wording for the expedition final rewards. It says specifically "starships bought" presumably from the wording of the rewards- is this intentionally worded so if you were to get a ship via QS vendor/distress beacon/carrier ai fragment (sentinel ship) that you don't get the nanite rewards? If anyone knows shoot a response please
Pretty sure it means claimed.
I'm going to continue doing my part!
@mint tangle
How do I finish the last one of stage 2?
If you mean Purged By Fire 2 it is a community effort milestone
We shall only wait?
I don't know exactly how the community milestones work - like - if you keep killing (like I am doing) does it nudge progress forward or are individual contributions capped?
In the Amenni-Akr system on the planet Verleste VI I scanned an aquatic lifeform that exceeded the PAV of 9.
Do you have a coordinate of it?
You mean glyphs?
You're welcome
Where's a good planet for the predator milestone?
Oh I should have looked up a little bit
This one。In the water of northern hemisphere
Amenni-Akr system planet Verleste VI I under the water of northern hemisphere you can find predators over 9.0 pav
glyphs
I have done my part, and I will continue to do my part!
Biological horrors are the fastest way to rack up kills because they immediately spawn after one is killed. And you can one-shot it with scatter blaster.
Only problem is that they always try to flank you, so they run around you.
Hello, I have completed the mandatory sections of the expedition. To continue to support the optional steps, do I need to go to specific locations to shoot the biological horrors, or will anywhere do?
anywhere should work, its about enemy killing not about where you do it (you have to be in the expedition for it to count ofc)
thx

Switch to Neutron Cannon and lol.
Just zone out blasting the waypoint with charged shots and take out entire waves in one shot. If one ever gets away you can just let your Minotaur handle it.
@wooden lily iron vulture available to claim in my PD save: do you want wings or cockpit?
cant have both sadly
wings is fine, it's all g
I appreciate it fr
actually i do need some nanites to claim the ship tho...im short of 1000 lol (that was just a trophy save)
if you have a few ship blueprints, we are good to go
otherwise ill have to farm for a while
ship blueprints?
ye modules
ooooh, I have 1 on me but lmc my storage rq
lets move to PM actually
I need a warp hypercore to fix my Minotaur
If I end the expedition now, will I receive these rewards?
Okey
You can however get all liquidators parts from the QS store
Okay.... How to complete second Liquidator mission? (Purge by fire 2)
I'm killing all the horrors and nothing happens
It's a community mission. It'll be a few days before all of them are completed

Hmm, okay. I'll try it when I get enough nanites from blasting those sentinels.
However... I'm going on a trip for 4 days tomorrow, so... I can't do my part.... For the time being....
remember that you can hold it at wanted level 2-3, if not corrupted sentinels
Are we going to make the community objectives in time?
yeah, no doubt
I mean, I've completed expedition 14 before. I just want to do my part to the community objectives....
I hope that I can help with the community objectives when I return back... before it completes and I can no longer do my part.
will end jan 8th
But community objectives might complete sooner than the expedition deadline
yep
That's what I'm more concerned of
dont worry about it
i understand that you want to help again, but you did help the first time around
high sentinel activity... cant find a single one xD
all planets have sentinels
could just find a secure building using relevant planetary charts or minotaur's radar array
rn looking for corrupted
then just look for dissonant/dissonance detected
-#
to view info below, enable embeds
How to find Dissonance
Look for Dissonant systems in the galaxy map. In these systems, you'll often find at least one planet that reads Dissonance Detected in their resource list.
Notes:
- All dissonant planets can be used to farm related resources e.g. radiant shards, echo locator
- Not all dissonant systems and/or planets can spawn harmonic camps (image
). Consuming a Carrier AI Fragment should lead you to a suitable location that can spawn harmonic camps.

perfect, need more fuel aswell xD
hmmm it says the sentinels are coming but none is showing up... ffs >.<
does not react when i take inverted mirror... even the task says its swarms here...
options/difficulty/on foot combat: what's it set to?
standar
options/network/multiplayer enabled or disabled?
enabled
i'd suggest disabling it, save, return to main menu, reload save, try again
Is there a cap to individual contributions towards the community milestones? I'm happy to kills bugs all day long (Helldivers represent!) but if it's not helping then there's not much point.
last time there was
Yeah, my % is stuck at 68% and won't advance, so I'm gessing(?) that I am capped
"Individual kills: 100 and counting"
😂 last night I had 54% in liquidation wen I stop playing today is 70% I guess the sever was busy last night 🤔 & still 100 kill dats never gone up 😀
i think that "100" comes from 50 kills for purged by fire 1, and 50 kills for purged by fire 2 - the personal goals
Gotta make sure the kills are near liquidator locations. Like the abandoned buildings they want you to investigate. If you go more than a hundred or so units away from the site, the kills won't count toward the goal. Bring some juicy grubs to the liquidator sites, and you can keep killing a lot easier.
Another option is to leave the brood mother till you have reached another expedition milestone of killing numbers...
Lastly, I experienced a weird glitch where if I killed the brood mother before activating the console, the kills would count. If I used the liquidator console, then I fought the brood mother, the kills wouldn't go up. Hope you get your missions done.
And lastly.... If you finish the corresponding kill count, you cannot continue your numbers until you are at the NEXT liquidator site directly connected to a kill count quest. I.e. location #4 corresponded with kill count #4
afaik, community research milestones can't be completed and claimed by each player till community reaches the number of kills required to complete current tier
afaik, where you do your kills have no relation to any of the purged by fire optional milestones, as long as it's in expedition 14
Anyone know why the game uses the terms "biological horrors" and "monstrocities" interchangably?
Sunday morning, drinking my coffee, pondering the nature of monsters
What’s the milestone at? I haven’t been able to play unfortunately
U can check and use !tier in #bot-spam
It’s 75%. I appreciate the info c:
Does somebody wanna give me some cool coordinates to go explore?
Anything certain?
As long as its a surprise and something new
If you give me a minute I have a white grass dissonant planet with water and the occasional mountain in Euclid, that sound cool? I'll have to log on and check the cords as I don't have them saved but I'll dm you them once I get there
White grass sounds amazing
Would love to have both!
If you dont mind
also, @hollow fern , #explorers-archive might have something cool 😉
If others are interested I'll put it in here somewhere, anyone else want to see it?
Oh nice, wasnt even aware of that channel yet, thanks!!

Where did you post them?
@hollow fern I posted it in #explorers-archive
Me beating two walkers by myself is impressive. I build and feed animals most days in no man sky so this is me running around screaming
Okay, learnt the hard way that I needed to make 2 HD fuel before leaving the first system
😭 I not found 1 pretty starship so far benn looking more Dan kill bugs 😂
If I finish my expedition I won’t get the milestone rewards right ?
Is there anyway to keep an animal companion I find in expedition and transfer it to my regular save? I found a space chihuahua
if you want to get the optional milestone rewards for free, you must not end expedition; remember that you can save, and pause/options/return to primary
You can help reach the community goals but do not end the expedition until we all complete the community awards
i'd recommend dropping and claiming a base computer on the planet you adopted it in, since bases merge from exp into primary save; then just teleport to base comp and adopt pet in main save
Oh no
companion eggs can't be transferred via exp terminus
that said
if you're not on that planet anymore
can you still find it in your discoveries list?
I hope so i gotta look now
yet another alternative would be to transfer an egg from that companion to an expedition save that was started from new game (as that would when finished, convert to normal mode, most probably the same mode your primary save is in actually)
Just seen this great graphic it just popped up 😀

Go Back into the loop interlooper

All part of the cycle 
suggestion: get paralysis mortar+voltaic amplifier from anomaly to keep it stunned/frozen and enjoying a +21% damage bonus while it is stunned
ok ok thanks
feel free to post a screenshot of your multitool, there's several milestones in exp14 that reward multitool tech and upgrades
I'd also recommend going for the legs first.
definitely - lower legs first, then upper, then torso, then head
@stable wave ^
keeping it stunned will help a lot though
Is the liquidator right arm customization in the expedition purely cosmetic, or does it have function
as well, can it be bought for quicksilver like the other ones since they can be bought without completing liquidators
flamethower
it can, yes
so I don't need to do the optional quests?
if you intend on unlocking the liquidator bps with quicksilver, no
gentle reminder that non-consumable quicksilver purchases are also unlocked account wide
Cool, thanks for the info
Blaaaaaaaze javelin
are you using your own mech to fight?
Stun them using paralysis mortar then use scatter blaster to blow them out of existence
it's a New safe
for the expedition
the expedition gives you the mech
the gun u mean?
One of the milestones rewards you with ||the minotaur exocraft - you can install AI in it and then it will fight along side you if you summon it.||
I’m about to start the expedition any recommendations on what to bring to make it easier?
Thank you
Yup
So lemme guess the ||grub caccon egg isn't one in the rewards page that's cross save|| anyone got the coordinates for that guy
Nice. Go away for a few hours and the optional milestone is done when I'm back.
Hey, new to nms and expeditions. I'm trying to build my hyper drive at the start, but I can't seem to place my refiner anywhere on the planets to craft the chromatic metal. Any help would be appreciated.
Do u have the metal plates and stuff to craft
I do, but anywhere on the planet it says no build permission and I'll be many many meters from nearest base
Let me give that a shot then more distance, Thank you
Yea like just run. And keep the build out so u can see when it turns green
Yes it worked, thank you so much
Personally, I always like to use the expedition terminus to take a MK2 personal refiner into expeditions, so I don't have to find anywhere to put a refiner down.
Yea but u can't do that till after u leave first system so u have to use it in the begining
And they're new so I'm assuming this is about to be their main save
Oh yeah, I forgot about that part.
guys ive never done an expedition before, let alone studied what they are, ive seen some really cool stuff you can get from them but im kinda nervous about attempting one, can i have some info on what they are and how you get the stuff?
I was the same way when I started playing. Finished the main storyline before starting my first expedition.
You could think of it as a mini-game within the game.
You don't have access to the same resources you have in your main save (but there's a way to transfter stuff at the beginning).
But for the most part, it's like starting a new game, just with specific tasks to fullfil.
I think of them as temporary extended side missions 
yeah i started one yesterday, i just started grinding out the little quest thingies, how do you obtain the rewards though?
also are they limited time/quantity?
Right now we are in a holiday expedition redux phase. HG is re-running past missions for us to enjoy. Each runs for a couple weeks then we move on to the next one.
so theyre limited time and if i miss a reward its gone?
There's two types of rewards. The ones you get inside the expedition, which you can only get while you're in it.
Then there's the major rewards, which you get at the Quicksilver shop in the Anomaly, in any of your saves.
yeah i understand the in expedition reward one, the upgrades that are supposed to aid youre journey?
how do you get those?
At the Quicksilver shop in the Anomaly. Walk up to it, and one of the options is to collect expedition rewards.
how do you unlock the rewards though?
i havent seen any in the expedition log while im in it
Now I'm confused. Both types of rewards are there in the Expedition screen.
i guess i wasnt looking correctly, either way, how rare/limited are the major rewards? theres this ship that i saw that looks like the milenuim falcon and i realyl want it

I thought plans learned during a expedition didn’t carry forward to the main save?
They do not - they are a temporary learn
If you are asking about the various upgrades that prepare you for the next step of the expedition then you will get those as you progress each small quest by going to your log looking for the "claim Reward" link under each quest step.
So what does a liquidator left arm from the optional do for me?
Will it be available from the quicksilver merchant?
yeah i understand that you claim a milestone to get an upgrade module or something
It's an expedition unlock that you can claim on every save through the QuickSilver shop
Cool thanks
how do I do the blood in the water?
How do you do "the Fat of the Land" milestone
Find those, they are a red marker when swimming
Can they die?
The alluring specimen, click on glowing balls and kill fish that tries to kill you
So its not immortal
Nope
"Fat of the land" the mining one? I'm not in game right now
Lmao every time someone came to the starting area a new horde emerged
Getting some 750 resources in a single burst
Iirc, Golden Fingies only give you 500 a pop
Just mine stuff, before you overheat take finger off mine button, when it cools to say 50% start mining again, do that until it completes
Oh I see
Yeah I thought it was this as well, then I tracked the quest and it's just "harvest entire things in one go several times"
So I just terraformed my immediate area
Oh I remember trying to do that one the first time around. It’s not using the terrain thing for resource deposits. Use the mining laser
YOU CAN MINE THOSE?!!!
You can always try if you put your mind to it
Everything gives resources when you use a mining laser on it.
Your target may end up dead, but it'll give resources.
Anything special we should or shouldn’t bring with for this expedition? It has been a while since I ran this one on PlayStation…
Can we bring tech to copy a ship/MT over in this one? Don’t want to waste that if there’s no stations or whatever to claim nanites that way (again, like one of the recent expeditions)
The exped starts you in a normal system.
You can not enter the anomaly after warping once.
You start with low nuke protection, about 500 units away from your ship
Once you reach your ship, it will summon some bio horrors
Disable MP, since whenever a player comes to that location it will summon a new horde.
Is this a “no anomaly” expedition? Meaning we don’t ever go/can’t ever summon the anomaly?
No no, I have only warped once but didn't unlock access to the anomaly, but I am sure you can access it at some point
I started yesterday
And I didn't bring ANYTHING
Oh. Usually once you leave the first system you can summon the anomaly
You also start with a pretty decent MT
Not in this one
So yeah, make atleast 2 Hyperdrive fuel before you leave the first system
Well I’m not going to start tonight (it’s past 2am lol) so maybe I’ll ask some more about it tomorrow just to clarify
Its fun so far tbh
Yeah I remember some things about it, but it’s been idk how many months so I don’t remember the specifics of everything
I know you kill a lot of stuff xD
I remember every time you’d land or enter a building the horrors would spawn😂
Funny lizard dogs
hiw long does it take you guys to do the expedition
i might have taken a big long
like around 11 hours
that doesn't seem long.
i don't speed run it unless i'm up against the last few days.
Think I was around 5 hours
I puttered around getting the personal milestones done since I knew I was going to keep working on the community goals.
eyyo, are there any rewards outside of the og liquidators expedition you can get in this redux?
how much quicksilver you can get from this?
There's one milestone thast gives 505 quicksilver. I don't remember getting any more
I dont have the patience to wait around for the community optionals on this expedition
You don't have to stay in the expedition - use the options menu to return to your primary save then come back in a couple days to check the progress.
Hello! A question about the expeditions in general.
When I finish an expedition and return to my normal save, the knowledge I unlocked is transferred to the normal save?
Whait I mean is, the words found, technologies researched/bought, do they transfer and add to the normal save?
Thanks in advance! 🙂
No, nothing from what you mentioned is transferred iirc
Ok, ty for the info!
Your bases get merged into primary save, items you put in the expedition terminus can be retrieved, ship and multitool copied
All currencies transfer automatically
And that's it
Ty vm!
505 QS thats about it how are wa ll doing whit our comunity goal i have like 6 interceptors now
guys, how do those purged by fire milestones work?
Everyone do their part and add to the pile
so, once I did my 150 kills I gotta wait for other players?

okay
If I copy a mt from main, upgrade it up a tier for free
I can copy it back to main and have to exact copies, one tier A, one S?
Can confirm. Just did it
Now have a beast Atlas staff
that's my plan.
Hi! Question: if I get an upgrade and install it, do I get the full price in nanites at the end of the expedition? Or is it better to not install it and sell it later? Thanks!
best to not install it and sell it, letting nanite balance merge back to primary
@remote thunder I wanted to clarify some things also, because I’d heard we can’t summon anomaly after our first jump? (Which normally we can…)
So, can we summon the Anomaly soon thereafter? Will we be able to bring tech along to sell for nanites, and will we be able to get to our stuff at the Anomaly soon enough to make it advantageous to use things we put in the expedition terminus to assist us?
Last time I did an expedition i just had to land on a space station after the first warp and the option to summon the anomaly appeared in quick menu
i always land in space stations in rdv systems, and my first warp out is usually to a rdv system - so that might be it sometimes
sometimes there's a milestone that has to be claimed first
I was responding to this comment so idk
e.g. "leave starter system" milestone
But otherwise assuming we can leave the system and make use of the anomaly, the space stations are normal in all respects so we can sell any tech we bring for nanites?
Anything else in particular that’s helpful to bring?
Aside from the usual stuff
joined the expedition... my ship is totally stuck under a crashed freighter
😦
can I rejoin? Do I lose my items from my main save that I xferred across?
yes, exp14 doesn't have exp13 adrift scenario
can't interact with it at all? can't fix launch thruster+pulse engine via inventory UI, and then summon it off?
Ahhhh good plan, forgot about inven UI
not played since exp1 😄
If it is repaired you can use the quick menu to summon it elsewhere (assuming like bk said you can fix it)
Is there a way to fix the very low FPS issues I'm having? I assume it's my internet
since it's fine in single player
but the moment I join either the exp or go into the anomoly it drops to like 10 FPS
You should do expeditions solo anyway
i do agree
Yeah hopefully when I get off this planet all will be better...
fat of the land - check the hint - optical drill makes it super easy

to view info below, enable embeds
LOL I was exploring a crashed freighter underwater and Biological Horrors came out and ran around on the ocean floor
Makes it easier to kill them from above.
Woo a Nexus mission to exterminate a Broodmother
I love how this lines up with doing the community objectives
Is there anything super useful to bring back from this expo? I’m thinking the S class Minotaur cannon upgrades.but anything specific?
What system has an apex predator in it?
Rdv2 system
I always bring the inventory expansions
Rdv1, the other planet. There's some base called "apex predator and sentinel off switch", which is just that:)
You can use those 3 MT tier upgrades
You can decline those?
Yes
No
At least not that I know
I copied my A class mts, claimed rewards and copied back
Planet is called onorisc datey
!tier
@digital oriole Please use this command in #bot-spam.
Christ, part 3 isn't done yet
when you get presented with the mt inventory upgrade UI, after claiming the relevant milestone's reward, you can back out e.g. right mouse click, and it will drop those inventory upgrades in items (in MT's case, multitool expansion slot)
How?
I am talking about the class upgrade
Yes, but I meant tier upgrades
@remote thunder is talking about inventory expansion upgrades
