[ocean garnet]

So far I've been surprised by how easy the combat is

[naive crypt]

Biological horrors don't have the smartest AI

Also Brood Mothers are just a big hitbox for Scatter Blasters

My only worry is the 2 Walkers

[ocean garnet]

I've been using the atlas staff neutron cannon and they went down easy

Actually one of them I used the minotaur

[naive crypt]

I have been using the same lmao

[wraith junco]

Paralisis mortar is underrated

[bitter anchor]

I hate it because mine has a glitch where the cockpit glass doesn't generate, causing me to see straight though the ship

[naive crypt]

Paralysis Mortar + The stun upgrade= Massacre

Its not just you m8

[bitter anchor]

Minotaur is so fun to fight with

[naive crypt]

That's intended at this point, sort of an anomaly

[naive crypt]

Unless a stray shot breaks the arm that has your weapon

[ocean garnet]

Aiming is tough though because sometimes it just doesn't want to lock on, and of it doesn't then it shoots to the side of the crosshair

[bitter anchor]

Then you get out and unleash the pulse spitter

[naive crypt]

When I was new, I used minotaur to fight the sentinel mech, I was wondering why tf was I not firing anything,only to realise my arm was broken. Got down, ran to my ship and glassed that whole area

My controller back then was so bad that I just couldn't find ground combat fun

[woven shadow]

All right I got the beginnings of a decent base going on my freighter.

I still need that teleportation thing so I can just use stuff from freighter storage if I’m on a planet on the same system or something

[remote thunder]

yeah, matter beam is so awesome 🤩

[storm fiber]

does the freighter save/load system still work?

[remote thunder]

you mean for the warp-in freighter rescue battle event? reload restore point in prev system, warp in again to reroll stats and redo battle yeah

[storm fiber]

thx!

[bitter anchor]

One of the best upgrades in the game

[remote thunder]

i always carry a stack of metal plating, mag resonator, quantum computer - my atlas pass v3 too fwiw - etc. in my freighter core cargo inventory. i feel bad not being able to help space encounter npc pilots in distress 😄

[slender sinew]

Hey everyone
Are glyphs available in this expedition

If yes
Is there a place I can get a sentinel ship

[wraith junco]

Yes

There is dissonant planet in starter system i think .

[slender sinew]

Alright got it

Let me check pinned messages for the system name

[remote thunder]

could try to teleport back to its station, worth a shot, maybe its available

[fringe sierra]

What's the status of the liquidation milestones

[long bone]

currently in tier 3

[fringe sierra]

inserts overly exaggerated UUUGGHHH gif

[long bone]

by the way you can go in #bot-spam and use ! tier to check fyi

[fringe sierra]

I knew it was something. But couldn't remember thanks to my tbi

Shhhh I know I could look but I'm also lazy

[long bone]

lol i get that

[slender sinew]

Hey
This my seem strange to ask but is there. Reason I don't have a base computer

I can't create bases on planets I like during the expedition

[remote thunder]

have you completed and claimed phase 1 milestone 3?

[civic kelp]

I've found a base with s tier sentinel ship marked before rdv2

[slender sinew]

Oh yes
Hadn't claimed yet
Cause of inventory
Thankss

[slender sinew]

Alright will check the space station teleporter

[hollow fern]

Happy travels interlopers!

[remote thunder]

and to you!

[civic kelp]

38%? who's not doing his part?

[spiral fossil]

Feel like this expedition's rewards aren't as good as Adrift.

[finite scaffold]

When I realized the optional milestones didnt give any quicksilver or nanites I was very disappointed

[open dagger]

I would be doing these expeditions even without the rewards tbh. I started playing the week before Aquarius so really started with that and have become quite addicted to them. I love problem solving adventure quests that really expose all the aspects of the game for a noob and the expeditions check all the boxes. That said - i do agree - the rewards seemed less compelling on first glance if that is your thing but haven't really looked closely at them

More QS would have been nice - agree.

[finite scaffold]

My totals for the exped so far, wonder how much this is going to balloon to before the end with rewards

[open dagger]

Now it would be fun to be able to post actual kill counts for this one 😉 My most meaningful stat atm. Anyway - can safely say Ty has not been slacking off...

...but have you done your part??

[finite scaffold]

Haven't been focusing hard on the horrors since I realized the optional milestones only gave rewards I already have, but still not a bad number considering

[open dagger]

You rock!!

[finite scaffold]

It's listed under mercenaries guild btw

[modern bronze]

Im having trouble with the Apex Predator milestone, does anyone know a planet with an aggressive creature near one of the rendezvous points (or an adress to one)?

[open dagger]

Thanks - ahh - the cumulative number. That counts your main save as well??

[finite scaffold]

Rendezvous 4 system, Lungleb, planet Erkant

[finite scaffold]

Nope, all the numbers reset for an exped

[civic kelp]

Rdv 1 system, onorisc datey

[open dagger]

Then nice!! Take a bow - you've earned it 😉

[civic kelp]

androiv xiv is the system's name

[civic kelp]

I've been idling in lungleb's space station for all day now :/

missed the exotic ship twice

[finite scaffold]

What a coincidence 😆

[finite scaffold]

I didnt travel for the holidays and had the week of Christmas off, had the spare time so I had some fun

Otherwise I'd probably have nowhere near these totals

[tight skiff]

OK, I have finished the expedition but... The optional ones.... I need to wait for the rest to finish their part, right? Does that means I shouldnt finish the expedition until all the optional tasks are finished?

[open dagger]

Yes; suspect best to wait to fully finish. Meanwhile - keep killing horrors

[finite scaffold]

If you want the liquidators set for the minotaur, yes

[tight skiff]

OK. Thanks!

Any other things I should do that will transfer over my real save?

[quaint urchin]

Check this chart for what you can earn: #nms-expedition message

[tight skiff]

Thanks!

[quaint urchin]

You can also do the weekend Nexus missions for 1800 Quicksilver on both your Primary save and in the Expedition. If you started the Expedition off of your primary those transfer back when you complete the Expedition.

I recommend switching back to your Primary save and doing it there first to see what it takes (especially if blueprints and resources are required).

[solemn bane]

Me. It's me. I am not doing my part.

I decided to go live in a bug nest like the one dude.

[rotund nimbus]

Im on the hunt for a purple sentinel planet

[gilded orchid]

Any planet that says dissonant should have corrupted sentinels and purple crystals

[rotund nimbus]

Oh I know i just have a hard time finding them this expedition

[gilded orchid]

Whenever I actually look for things, I never find them either

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.

I FOUND ONE AFTER ALMOST 30 WARPS

[vagrant path]

Does anyone have any tips on finding a water world I want to make a underwater base

[waxen mirage]

Most systems have water planets in my memory.

It's easy to find one.

All planets have water.

[vagrant path]

I'm trying to find one with mostly water

[waxen mirage]

This kind?

[unkempt kraken]

@waxen mirage

No gifs in this channel please

[vital vine]

i did not know you could take over an aggressive sentinel planet, Jesus this planet is a gravitino and storm crystal paradise like a ridiculous amount and sac venom and just make sure you shut them down first.

[waxen mirage]

💯

[stiff frigate]

Hi everyone, im new in expedition, and i want to know if i take an new ship or a Freighter i lost the mine in the main save? sorry for ask

[misty plinth]

You can join the expedition from your main save OR if you have a slot open you can start with a new save. Regardless of which you choose you get a basic starter ship early on that will need minor repairs. You will also get a multitool for your use.

With regard to a freighter - capital ship - you cannot bring one into the expedition. You will have to find and claim one during your adventure if you so desire.

[dreamy solar]

When does Liquidators end?

[misty plinth]

In 8 days

You can check the events channel for current expedition info

[fathom gyro]

Hello can I join someone or a group I'm so bored of playing by myself

#nms-lfg-or-trades

[vital vine]

i am going to make sure the base is on the terminus just make sure to go to the pillar computer to shut the sentinels down because the reset evrey time i log back in. but everyone should get a piece of the action

[red shale]

Well.....I'm returning to my primary save and those who need to do their part are complete.....

[open dagger]

Community Milestones are not complete ergo jump back in after every reset and continue to do your part 😉 (please)

[red shale]

Can I do that if I do the expedition on my main save?

[open dagger]

Yes, i finished the expedition 3 days ago and jumping back and forth continuing to kill the baddies. You can switch back and forth at the terminal on the Anomolay or switch to main save at the log out screen and restart the exp on the Anomolay -

I started building a base on a neat planet at the 5th Rondo and spending some time on that as it will merge back into my main save - cool floating island base 🙂

[red shale]

I switch back and forth at the terminal in the Anomaly, but it doesn't show that I can keep doing my part 🧐

[open dagger]

Pretty sure if you keep killing, you keep contributing - maybe need someone to clarify for us - I usually bug BK but he appears off for the night - maybe one of the other mods

[frozen laurel]

You just have to kill bugs.

[red shale]

I killed aaaaaaaa lot of bugs....

[open dagger]

Do you know if they continue to count toward the community goals after you have personally finished?

[frozen laurel]

Jump back into the expedition save and kill more.

[open dagger]

There is a daily cap per player - 150 i think - but i just keep killing them out of principle

Still it would be nice to confirm that they helped ongoing community milestones. It appears this redux drew less players back so we may not make it LOL

[misty plinth]

When it was first milestone - mine reported 50 and counting - I had killed 700+ before milestone 2 was reached

Then in milestone 2 it said 150 and counting even though I was at 1500 kills

So I dunno

500 sentinels killed so far too - no idea if it's helping or not

[misty plinth]

Seeing a lot of people passing this expedition up because no new rewards and the QS payout is pretty low

[open dagger]

It's the low QS i am sure -

[misty plinth]

I do the nexus missions to pad my QS

[red shale]

I thought black holes warped you closer to the center?

[open dagger]

I need to start doing those. I've not been doing anything in multiplayer after my first week (some troll tried to trap and kill me - so not to excited about turning that back on) but need to do the nexus for sure

[red shale]

Just turn PVP off...

[open dagger]

It was off which is why i was able to escape but it was an unexpected troll move and i never rethought it - will do after this redux and start doing nexus

Overall i have found the community totally the opposite of that behavior - incredibly supportive people playing this game

[long bone]

baaah even if you get pvped and die, not a big deal like at all imo

[open dagger]

I noticed that as well

Not why i started playing this game but i take your point. No, not a big deal - unless it's not your deal. I have other games i play for mayhem 😉

[long bone]

i look at it as another relentless pirate npc or AI Sentinel Interceptor trying to kill me...that's why i barely notice them anymore lol

[naive crypt]

Unless it's Survival or PD

If I start an expedition from my PD save and die, will it erase my save?

[long bone]

hey its part of the journey: theres danger everywhere and anywhere in the galaxy 🤷🏻‍♂️

You have to be a real Joe to face that Danger

[carmine wing]

Is there any trick to using others bases refiners? They all say object in use

[misty plinth]

Probably due to how the network settings are defined for their use

[carmine wing]

I thought as much but these are all bases for the expedition that people seem to setup for others and they're all refiners that are locked

[misty plinth]

Most people that set up the nanite farms seem to leave them unlocked

I don't know if the lock settings can be one way for one base and different for another.

[frozen laurel]

Can only be used if the owner is present and they set refiner permissions to everyone.

[carmine wing]

Oh it's an and?

[iron tendon]

Do some planets lack sentinel walkers? They're not appearing for me even at 5 stars suppression level

Instead they just point me to a dissonance spike location, which is usually a new ship

[low jackal]

corrupted sentinel planet do not spawn walker

they only spawn big purple corrupted quad

if you want to find walker
avoid planet that says corrupted sentinels

[iron tendon]

Ah ok, thanks!

[iron tendon]

Found this guy on a dissonant planet (unfortunately I'm not the original discoverer, so his name will stay unchanged)

[iron tendon]

I destroyed one of those walking robots patrolling a sentinel pillar. Aren't those sentinel walkers?

[low jackal]

most likely just a bipedal mech

walkers are tall

[iron tendon]

OH, right. Ok thanks

[iron tendon]

Local sentinel network got disabled after destroying the sentinel walker!

[vital vine]

i found a guy like that it made me laugh, looked like a lil peni jumpin around. this one was my favorite tho just creepy

hey i cleared another aggressive sentinel planet and put the base right at the pillar so you all can jump on the interface and deactivate them asap. the amount of gravitino balls are ridiculous and both of the planets are also storm crystal farms, and sac venom and larval cores it is insane, one aggressive planet is volcanic and the second one is toxic so if you have upgraded your exosuit there is plenty of ammonia and phosphorous to go around to power the upgrades its better than wasting ion batteries' . and you can hang around all day and get interceptor after interceptor snd sell them for so good credits. but holy heck is this multi tool they gave us op, thnk you hello games!!!! i love this game.

i just want to make sure everyone can get in on this action, also the two dissonant planets i found are insane too those bad boys dont turn off like their normal cousins. but they give plenty of ships out.

[iron tendon]

Cool, what's the name of the base?

[woven shadow]

I am actually not sure if what I got is a dreadnought or just an S-class freighter

I thought they were the same thing but maybe not

[silent knot]

depends, usually "dreadnought" is used to refer to pirate dreadnoughts

but it can also be used for the largest model of sentinel freighter

[woven shadow]

Let me see if I can get a screenshot of it

Gotta fire up the game first

[silent knot]

looks like an imperial venator

[woven shadow]

It looks cool. The freighter in my main save is class

It has a lot more cargo slots and upgrades since I have been working on it for a while.

[woven shadow]

So, if I have already done more than 150 kills, am I still contributing to “Purged by Fire” 3 when I kill more things?

Or have I fulfilled the objective as much as I can already?

[silent knot]

believe that's it, further kills won't count

i think it resets daily?

[woven shadow]

Oh okay

[silent knot]

at least i remember that when liquidators originally ran

[long bone]

daily cap

[woven shadow]

Because I have done like 500-600 kills apparently

All right so I should do some more today and then come back tomorrow

[silent knot]

if i'm not mistaken, yeah

[vital vine]

if you go to the terminus in all the bases my bases are very discritive of what they are i will screen shot it for you

[stiff frigate]

Buenos días, disculpen, se que quizás todos hablan inglés, mi inglés no es muy avanzado como para escribir, por ende, despues agregaré la traducción, mi pregunta es la siguiente, yo tengo una partida guardada en creativo, comencé mi primera expedición (que ha sido genial por cierto) y frente a ello quiero saber, ¿cuando termine la expedición pierdo todo lo que tenga en la expedición?, también si tomo naves o cargueros en la expedición, ¿afecta a mi partida principal? finalmente, ¿que recomendaciones o como juegan ustedes? Esto porque la verdad me generaron muchas dudas, pero unas ganas inmensas de seguir jugando y explorando el universo.

Good morning, sorry, I know maybe everyone speaks English, but my English isn't advanced enough for writing, so I will add the translation later. My question is the following: I have a saved save file in creative mode, I started my first expedition (which has been great, by the way), and I want to know, when the expedition ends, do I lose everything I have in the expedition? Also, if I take ships or freighters during the expedition, does it affect my main save file? Finally, what recommendations or how do you play? This is because, honestly, it raised a lot of questions, but it also gave me a huge desire to keep playing and exploring the universe.

Thanks a lot

[vital vine]

the purple x is the buried ruins on the agro world dont wory about that one untill you shut off the sentinels. the purple circle bases are all right at the pilar all you have to do is shut them down sometimes the destructible parts where you get the glass and such respawn so you can destroy them. and good luck and go at it. you can make mega credits. the red dot ones are the corrupted planets and the one base well they are all pretty self explanitory. i have 3 of you can see my exo suit set up 3 of each hazard it works well i rarely ever have trouble and the agro planets all make storm crystals and the frozen dissonat world make storm crystals to but the agro gravito balls are insane and you will finf sac venom, abandoned buildings and go make som money and spread the word i am doing as many as i can till next expedition.

Happy new year!

[azure glade]

I feel really stupid right now. Its not my first run but I could use some help. Just started the expedition and I cant get to my ship. The ship is located inside a crashed frighter? What am I missing?

Can I summon it if I find NavData?

[long bone]

wait have you claimed it already and it gliched out?

or it spawned crashed in there?

[azure glade]

no, just started the expedition and the first part is to claim it but it looks like it is located inside the crashed frighter and I cant get to it

I guess, I need to start it again?

[raw ruin]

Probably restart it

[long bone]

damn thats crazy lol no you wont be able to summon it

[raw ruin]

Probably report this to HG as well.

I hope this isn't a recurring bug with this expedition like there was in the previous expedition.

[azure glade]

yeah, sounds like a good idea

[hollow shore]

Could you show the situation when even closer to the ship? Still 33u away from it, and maybe you can just reach the interaction regardless?

[raw ruin]

I believe if there is a physical obstruction, it won't let you interact with it.

Such as a wall, another level, or, in this case, a crashed freighter.

[azure glade]

22u is the closest I can get to it, if I move closer the ship icon disapears

[hollow shore]

Is the icon pointing below you perhaps? Any sense of the actual location it may try to point you to?

[raw ruin]

I'm still firm on the ship needing a clear pathway to allow interaction.

[hollow shore]

It would still allow interaction regardless (see examples included)

[dim jay]

Can’t you just summon it elsewhere?

[raw ruin]

Nah, it won't be summoned.

[azure glade]

I tried to go around and dig but I cant because of the crashed firghter. I think 22u is too far away to reach it.

[long bone]

need to interact with it first to repair it

[hollow shore]

Not in this case, as it is requiring repair as initial start for the expedition

[dim jay]

Do you have 1 nav data?

[azure glade]

no, just started the expedition

[dim jay]

Ahh you’re right

[raw ruin]

He needs to repair it first.

[atomic estuary]

You can access ships inventory and repair it if you are just near it

[hollow shore]

Oh well, at least you tried. Did you start it from a fresh save or from existing?

[long bone]

even without interacting?

[azure glade]

I guess, the fastest is to restart 🙂 I dont loose any progress at this point 🙂

[atomic estuary]

Yep, just stand next to it

[raw ruin]

Best to restart

[dim jay]

Yea restart.

[long bone]

how close tho

[atomic estuary]

After repairs you xan resummon

[long bone]

hes at 22u closest lol

[azure glade]

I started the expedition from my main. But this shouldn't be the problem.

[raw ruin]

Yeah, it'll let you access the inventory a certain distance (100u maybe)

[atomic estuary]

Should work

[raw ruin]

That's within the range you can access inventory

[long bone]

good to know for the future, nvr had or heard of a freighter spawn lol

[raw ruin]

I'd be inside a base and still interact if the ship is next to me despite a wall being there.

[long bone]

oh yes ok for that but without any interaction ever with it before?

[azure glade]

22u is the closest I can get. When I move little bit closer the ship icon disapears and I cant see it. The ship seams to be under me, inside the crashed frighter.

[raw ruin]

Yeah, the compass disregards if it is above or below you (that should be something HG should implement.)

[atomic estuary]

Open your inventory, go to the ship tab, fix what needs fixing or refueling and summon the ship somewhere else

[raw ruin]

Even without interaction, you can still access the inventory.

Cause that's the ship that spawns with you, so it is yours by default

[long bone]

youre right, i assumed it was like any other crashed ship but no, you start the game and it IS your ship already

makes sense

[hollow shore]

I do agree with a restart as it is just the easiest way out, although I also agree you could likely make repairs regardless of the iffy situation you are presented. I would certainly suggest reporting this to Hello Games either way, describing the issue and what you have tried, including images if you have made.

[dim jay]

Are we still on the adrift expedition? The website says we should be on Liquidators.

[long bone]

liquidators

[hollow shore]

[unkempt kraken]

You can submit bug reports, suggestions or feedback to Hello Games here: https://hellogames.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

[raw ruin]

Nope, Adrift ended last week

[dim jay]

I’ve restarted and there’s no one in the anomaly and I’m still on adrift completed

[raw ruin]

Did you start from the Expedition Terminal?

Or did you start from a new save?

[dim jay]

When I go to the terminal it shows adrift completed

[raw ruin]

Redeem any awards you have obtained and it'll return you to the save you originally started from

[dim jay]

Same save I’ve been playing on

[raw ruin]

It'll tell you to end the expedition.

[dim jay]

Ahhh I have some mould in there?

[raw ruin]

Yeah, pull that out, and it'll reset it. Had that happen to me between The Cursed and Omega Redux

[dim jay]

That solved it!

[raw ruin]

Glad I could help.

[dim jay]

Thank you!

[azure glade]

To be honest, I think the fastest way would be to restart but now I kind of want to make it work this way 🙂 repairing works. I tried with a metal plate. I guess this expedition will just take longer then expected 🙂 🙂 good for me, I dont need to work the next couple of days 🙂

Thx to everyone who responded to my help request 🙂

[hollow shore]

lol, custom milestone with likely the best reward possible, ... our admiration

[azure glade]

Its not the best ship I ever had but I at least worked hard to get it ...

[raw ruin]

Don't worry. The fun is just starting, honestly. I kind of had fun with this expedition when in FINALLY came out.

[azure glade]

I could't play it the first time because of timing problems but now I have all the time I need for it.

[atomic estuary]

Not really longer, it's the same process you would have to go through whether you restarted or not.

You will need the following to fix launch thrusters and pulse engine:

• 1x metal plating

• 50x pure ferrite

• 1x dihydrogen jelly

• 1x hermetic seal

All can be easily aquired and since you can access ships inventory repairs won't be a problem. After that use quick menu to resummon you ship at some other spot and you should be good to go

[raw ruin]

I'm the Space Student, so I had time do it, but I need crunch time for Expedition 17 when it releases.

[azure glade]

Yeah, thats what I will do. Thx a lot!

[raw ruin]

For the Launch Thrusters, it'll be partially charged upon repair, so you don't have to worry about gathering additional materials.

[waxen mirage]

Happy new year ,guys.

[rotund nimbus]

With this expedition I'm hoping to keep the sentinel ship I found. I've grown attached and named it Fish Tank

[hollow shore]

I assume you started from an existing save. Make sure it's the active ship when you finish up. You can then synthesise it back to main for Nanites

Tier 3 community research is taking forever

Science harder people

[open dagger]

Does anyone know if our continued horrors kills after completing the expedition (but not finishing on terminal) will still count for community goals?

[hollow shore]

As long as you are doing those kills within the expedition, it counts towards the community progress. However, there is a limited amount each player can contribute individually. This means the community as a whole is required to contribute to progress to the next tier

[open dagger]

thank you - do you know what the individual contribution limit is? A daily limit or total for the expedition?

[hollow shore]

I believe the individual limit is 150 kills per day, which I believe resets at midnight GMT. At least this is how it was previously. Doubt it changed

Correct, you can go to the Options Menu and select to return to 'primary' save. Play your main save while waiting on the tiers for community progress. Once all tiers are done, you can return to the expedition and finish up those optional milestones.

[misty kite]

ok thank you so much for the clarification!

[runic summit]

hello. if i finish phase without complete additional stage will i get a diagram of the legs?

[hollow shore]

You should still be able to get the optional milestone rewards after having finished the individual phases and claimed the rewards for them, as long as you do not finish the expedition. I recommend waiting to claim the final reward, but claim and finish everything else you can

You can wait on the optional milestones to finish community research and claim those rewards later

If you started from an existing save, you can also return to primary save through the Options Menu and wait for those tiers to complete, to then return, claim all and finish up

[open dagger]

Meanwhile, be sure to get in your 150 kills each day of play so we have a chance at completing. Current progress is lagging a wee bit...

[runic summit]

how do i know i made 150? i'm tired of killing them

[wraith junco]

U can count bug loot. Or in milestones there is destroyed sentinels count.

[misty kite]

yhe i already killed a whole lot

[fringe sierra]

but we gotta do it every day

[fringe sierra]

it wont be. but i sat down and did the whole thing in under 6 hours so you should have plenty of time

you can also change some difficulty settings if u want to make it easyer if u feel rushed. but i try to avoid that

[runic summit]

What I got won't be counted?

[fringe sierra]

150 per day

[hollow shore]

I am sure it counts for something, if not for persistence alone

[fringe sierra]

touche

[runic summit]

i'm stupid.... 🤯

[ivory wasp]

Thanks, that's reassuring. I'll have at least a couple evenings open over the week

[hollow shore]

No no no, you are not! It was just not clear to you there was a daily limit.

The image shows various things that get rewarded once you finish up, so I bet it counts for something in there

[fringe sierra]

you can also transfer them back if u want them for ur main save. i usually have to make several transfers as i strip everything down to scraps and transfer it all

[runic summit]

I didn't understand how to transfer from expedition to main save. I took only a few things from the main one and I see how to make a copy of the ship from the main one.

[hollow shore]

You can check this pinned info here: #nms-expedition message or you can use !faq-expedition in #bot-spam for general expedition info. It also explains the transfer process for both starting and finishing the expedition. Once you do finish the expedition, just make sure to not completely finish if you intend to do multiple transfers of resources/items/ships/multi-tools. Best to ask again by the time you are ready to finish

[runic summit]

so if i want return to main save i only can finish expedition?

[hollow shore]

This is telling you that the expedition has to end or finish for it to no longer exist together with your main save. I think you misinterpreted what the info you show is trying to tell you. You can however still switch, as both your main save and the expedition you started both exist on the same save, but use a different 'context' you can alter/swap between

[fringe sierra]

no if u go to ur options page ull see a "return to primary" option use that after filling the slots up but u cant do that till the commuity ones are done. or u choose to not get them

[hollow shore]

@runic summit Do not hesitate to ask further questions. We understand that English may not be your native language and we are more than willing to try further explain for you to understand correctly

[runic summit]

the main thing I understood was about 150 a day as a daily limit.
The property abandoned during the expedition will be returned to me in money, as I understand it.

[hollow shore]

Correct about the limit. Yes, you will also get rewarded for resources/items you leave behind in various inventories. You also get rewarded for various other progress and achievements made. I am hoping you now understand you can switch between your regular game and the expedition. If you have further questions about finishing the expedition, feel free to ask at any time

[runic summit]

I am hoping you now understand you can switch between your regular game and the expedition. thanks . i have some time search for a video so as not to accidentally finish the expedition.

[frozen laurel]

Just don't click End expedition at the terminal.

[young warren]

Forgot to make a note of the liquidators redux starting system name. I know I ckecked in at the space station so I could TP back later.
Rather than play guess the TP anyone have the system name?

[heady urchin]

can i get some insight to why there are a dozen bases named russ .3 in the phase 5 solar system..? ;-;

[hollow shore]

Check the pins, it has it listed

[young warren]

Thanks. It also happened to be the last station in my TP list as well.

[hollow shore]

No idea. Bases are uploaded by players and there is a limited amount that can be made visible (newest first). A single player can only upload one base per planet on their account.

[heady urchin]

Gotcha, thanks.

[vital vine]

i love the inteceptors that you can find

[toxic mortar]

Minotaur makes me motion sick AF. Worst goal.

I already completed it. I just hate using the thing.

[solemn bane]

Does 1st person view vs 3rd person view make any difference?

[bitter anchor]

What!?

The minotaur is my favorite way to get around minus the starship

I use it anywhere, anytime

[toxic mortar]

I'm not a fan of 3rd person in general.

[solemn bane]

So... yes? lol

[finite scaffold]

Ugh, I just found an S class pirate dreadnought with much better supercharged slots than the one I have on main save. Wish I could bring it back with me!

[sour anchor]

can the expedition do me

[hollow shore]

Could you rephrase your question?

[bright bear]

No no, they got a point

[sour anchor]

as is said

[hollow shore]

I fail to understand the question as is

[raw ruin]

What?

[gilded orchid]

I usually go out to dinner with an expedition first

After an extensive courting, of course

[hollow shore]

...

[raw ruin]

Ok, this is getting weird now

[gilded orchid]

The expedition must pay a hefty dowry

After passing feats of strength

And a customary waiting period

As well as the witnessing of a white proto gek

[obtuse jungle]

Happy new year everyone! 🥳🎆🎇

[bitter anchor]

Standard procedure

[gilded orchid]

All about procedure

[bitter anchor]

Procedural generation

[gilded orchid]

Exactly

[vital vine]

i just got the stranger in strange land achivement

[runic summit]

ok. now i'm find counters

[open dagger]

Nice numbers! Doing your part!! 🍄

[open dagger]

@atomic estuary Do you know what happens when all the optional milestones are not completed in an expedition redux like Liquidators? Does it become an opportunity missed for those doing it for the first time?

[atomic estuary]

I dont recall something like that ever happening, community managed to always complete milestones without a fail

[open dagger]

Thank you. Digits crossed.

[runic summit]

what does the diamond above the horror mean?

[naive crypt]

Its a marker

It tells you "Yo this shit wants to kill you"

[runic summit]

thnks

[naive crypt]

You will also find it above the jellyfishes in Cursed

[wet spindle]

if i completed the experiditon in the anomaly now will i still be getting optional milestone rewards?

or i really have to wait

[low jackal]

You do have to wait

you can switch back to normal mode for now if you started expedition with an existing save

[stray needle]

what optional odjection is the expedition on?

[frozen laurel]

!tier in #bot-spam

[open dagger]

..And - you can always switch back into the expedition and kill 150 horrors to help complete these community milestones..

150 per day - per player

[wintry void]

I think its per save, you could have 5 expedition saves and do 150 on each

[naive crypt]

You know? Scatter blaster is kinda growing on me

[open dagger]

My go to and has been great for this expedition. Lot of range for a shotgun.

[naive crypt]

Imma put it pn one of my main save rifles and name it THE PIPE

Man, I have already done the cursed exped but I kinda wanna do it again just to get a bunch of Quicksilver elixirs

[iron tendon]

All good. I have found about 4 sentinel pillars already and have collected the multitools from them

Can the same waypoint be charted by everyone? Otherwise, it seems that some people build a base but not chart the waypoint near it

[remote thunder]

yeah; though many people just ignore waypoint windmills

may take up to 24h to replicate

Teir 3 optional completed.

[runic summit]

When a phase is closed, the daily limit is reset?

[misty kite]

does this mean that the limit is 200 kill per person now?

also

how do i know that i meet the limit?

[remote thunder]

afaik that means that you've killed at least 200 in your entire expedition

[remote thunder]

you don't

in exp14's original run, daily kill contribution limit was 150 per player

idk if that's still the same value with exp14 redux

[toxic mortar]

Cool. Caise I found a lot of ships, I had to scrap some

Thank you

[vital vine]

thank you

[misty kite]

i killed so many biological horrors damn

they just wont stop spawning

[copper belfry]

Is this the last of the redux expeditions?

[bitter anchor]

There's two more, Aquarius and cursed

[copper belfry]

Ahh nice one, cheers

[naive crypt]

I have done both so I can just relax at that time

[bitter anchor]

Honestly I liked Aquarius, it was kinda peaceful and I ran into people and none of us talked but we fished together for like an hour and it was just a fun experience

[compact fractal]

How to do the apex predator

[naive crypt]

Look for bases titled similarly and scan creatures nearby

[compact fractal]

Its ok now i accidentally complicated it

[naive crypt]

Lmao

Lucky

Phase 3 complete

Time to beat some rancid meat

[waxen geode]

😂 yesterday after playing for 1 month I finally got all 16 glyph 🤔 why in the expedition I found 8 already 😂. Keep seeing two see through traveler nearly at space station 😂

I do love how dem don't stay still Wen taking a picture 👏🏿👏🏿

[naive crypt]

Every time i fight a broodmother the model doesn't load in, I am literally fighting ghosts

Phase 4(almost) complete. Just need a dissonant world

[toxic mortar]

Use the ai shard you get as a reward

[naive crypt]

Where do we get that as a reward?

[remote thunder]

phase 5 milestone 3

[naive crypt]

Of course its the AT-DP one

Note to self: No dark jokes

[atomic estuary]

Lubricator Alpha? 🤨

[naive crypt]

Yeah, because of the expedition. I am part of the Lubricator Walmart

So my plan is straightforward, get to the last dropzone, do my part and stuff, bring down the force of god on some poor Sentinel, then fight till I kill the Walker, then go to a diss planet and do the same with the corrupt ones

And then, I just log on, kill stuff, log off

Daily until the milestones are met

[toxic mortar]

Sounds like a plan.

[keen orbit]

Is this expedition worth it

[frozen laurel]

It always is if you enjoy it.

Only you can subjectively evaluate the value of your time in the game.

[keen orbit]

Anything cool you get out of it

[fringe sierra]

Have u done the liquidator one yet on its first round?

[main wyvern]

Minotaur upgrades

Those are the optional milestibes though

You also get to become a chitin

[fringe sierra]

And other decoration stuff. Plus all the items and ships and stiff u find

If ur in the Anomaly u can check the qs terminal and look at exp 14 stuff.

The minotaur upgrades aren't there though those are in qs shop itself but they are unlocked account wide

[tame galleon]

Does anyone have tips for “apex predator”? It’s the only one that I’m missing

[main wyvern]

Find a base that someone made for that milestone, and scan creatures at that planet

[eager flume]

how many ships can I have?

was 6 but I did not play in a while

did it change?

[royal tundra]

12

[fringe sierra]

12. The 1 your flying and 11 more to swap through

[ocean gorge]

Hopefully you found one
But in case you didn’t, the first dropzone planet, Torpet Alpha, has a high PaV predator that counts. Unfortunately it might take more patience than some want to give, it’s a rare underground. But here’s the data if you want it

[slender sphinx]

what is the command for me to know how many days left for the expedition?

[wraith junco]

Do !exptime in #bot-spam

[slender sphinx]

ty

[gloomy vector]

what has to happen for the optional events to be complete? we just kill stuff?

do we have our own individual counter or is it a collective kill counter?

[wraith junco]

Collective

[frozen laurel]

No wonder my ship is broken. Whoever parked it before I started the expedition was drunk.

[remote thunder]

have had that happen, with similar shelter poi

[long bone]

dude had his ship spawn inside a crashed freighter the other day lol
great way to start an expedition

[remote thunder]

oh no

hopefully they managed to get it fixed

[solemn bane]

Were you wearing a banana costume when you wrote this?

[frozen laurel]

no monkey, there was no banana.

[long bone]

very start of expedition so i think he restarted, no worries

[night robin]

If I go through the center of a specific galaxy for the first time while I'm in Expedition mode, having never gone through it in regular mode, will it be undone when the expedition ends and I can't return to the Expedition mode anymore?

Is there anything different about the first time you go through a specific galaxy's center?

[cedar depot]

Wait so if I get the blueprints from the community goals, is there anyway to use them in my main account?

[solemn bane]

Some of them are unlocks at the QuickSilver vendor you can claim on any game on your account, others are just things you learn the regular way in the Anomaly.

[cedar depot]

Ok. So i unlock the ability to get these by doing the thing

[solemn bane]

Depends on the thing. If it's a blueprint exclusive to the expedition, it'll be something you can also claim at the QuickSilver vendor after unlocking it on the expedition. If not, it'll just be something you can buy regularly.

[cedar depot]

Ok. thank you for the help

[bleak turret]

why inst this going up?

i have killed already two full sites of them

and still only 34%

even killed a hole wave of sentinels

[runic maple]

It's a community event.

[bleak turret]

so community is stuck at phase 4?

[cedar depot]

Yall think setting up a lot of points where eggs are will be helpful?

[cedar depot]

Its a large amount to kill

[solemn bane]

There is a limit of like 150 kills a day per account, so don't put too much into it unless you're having fun 😆

[cedar depot]

Damn

Maybe after I hit that limit\

[solemn bane]

Remove the cap and add a leader board imo.

[cedar depot]

Ill set up a lotta points

[cedar depot]

Yeah, its a bit wierd that a community goal makes it so you can only help so much

[bleak turret]

this is not a storm?

[cedar depot]

It looks like a storm

[bleak turret]

so why it doesnt count?

i am walking

[cedar depot]

But i think the game says Extreme storm when it is one

[golden trench]

Being a new player (-20 hrs) how good or bad is it to do expeditions?
What advice would you give me

[bleak turret]

"incoming storm"

so extreme weather inst storm

dammm

always learning

[cedar depot]

The eniormental sheild usual says "STORM" when its a storm

Thats what i've noticed

[ripe summit]

expeditions are good as they can give you good equipment and inventory or weapon slots (which should be saved up) you can get many S class upgrades from expeditions, so its best to do expeditions when they become available

[golden trench]

Anything I should know before I start?

[ripe summit]

anything you pack will be at the space anomaly so try to pack stuff you might need for later stages, like condensed carbon as its pretty hard to find without the advanced mining laser

[misty plinth]

@golden trench Why not create a new save and give it a try that way? Plenty of time left to run it on your primary save once you've experienced what the expedition is like.

Personally I feel a first time experience shouldn't be ruined by bringing in a bunch of things to make it super easy/cheesy.

[cunning sandal]

if you dont have a lot of time & been a new player. not been as experienced as some of us . i see nothing bad with bringing things to make it a bit easier for you. Some of us have jobs & real life things to deal with & cant spend 10 to 15 hours on some of the expeditions.

[gilded orchid]

Any way to play that makes it fun is the right way

[fringe sierra]

I think we'll actually make it through the last 2 community goals

[toxic mortar]

I wish all kills counted, between horrors and sentinels I had around 2000 kills in the last 2 days.

[livid drift]

Running through with an oddly specific Q: what system was RDV 2 in for adrift? I think the old rdv post is unpinned (reasonably) but I'm retracing my steps for something

[misty plinth]

You mean Adrift Redux?

[toxic mortar]

#nms-expedition message

[livid drift]

thank you

[cedar depot]

Setting up a few areas to kill things at

[open dagger]

Very cool! Do not want to see all this effort wasted so will log in shortly and work the list. TYVM @cedar depot

[cedar depot]

Oh no, theres gonna be more

Its gonna go to Z

I just have other responsabilities right now

[slender sphinx]

Rendezvouz 2 for this expedition really takes time to reach?

or am I lost?

[cedar depot]

Follow the green lines on your galaxy map, it leads you to the rendezvouz

It shouldn't take that long

Just 1 full charge on hyperdriver

[slender sphinx]

I am following the expedition route, I refueled for 3 times now lol.

the pirates are so annoying

every 3-4 warps i think

[open dagger]

Would suggest docking at the nearest space station, teleporting back to the rondo point 1 and restarting the trip 😉

It was short as DonLuigi said as most of use were still flying the space pinto they give use to start pre upgrades they shower us with as we go

[bleak turret]

now wait for communitie progress?

[slender sphinx]

whats the name of the rendezvous 2 system?

[cedar depot]

Go ahead and help out as well, 150 kills helps us greatly

[bleak turret]

i am trying my best

but the thing is

i kinda rushed cause i am a bit busy

[cedar depot]

Your good, just giving you suggestions if you have more free time

If you dont, dont worry about it

Anyways, imma go make more liquidation points

[frozen laurel]

It's in the pins. with the portal coords too.

[gilded orchid]

Towards community research? Get to sciencing

[cedar depot]

To give for people to kill biological horrors

They are all at abandoned buildings

[gilded orchid]

A true adventurer and scholar!

[golden trench]

OK, Thanks 👍

[golden trench]

If I make a new game, the loot I get, can I use it in my main saved game or not?

[frozen laurel]

Most, yes. Takes a few trips to get it all back. Don't click End Expedition at the Anomaly terminal until you're really done moving stuff back to your primary save.

[golden trench]

🫡 👏

[frozen laurel]

More info in the pins.

[golden trench]

Oh, OK

[frozen laurel]

You can copy back the active multi-tool and ship, but you'll need to pack up the tech from the exosuit to move it back.

[cunning sandal]

i was hopeing so i beat the expedition days ago lol & never left yet so i could get the last 2 parts lol

[cunning sandal]

Good thing to do is make a base at every rendezvous point. So ya can go back to one if ya need it 👍

[slender sphinx]

damn, its a long way to go.

thats my 4th recharge of warp cell.

i tried checking some portals at space stations and anomaly

i cant find rendezvous 2 portals

[golden trench]

Thanks for your help!... @cunning sandal@ripe summit

Well then, let's see what happens...

[cunning sandal]

np i hope that helps 🫡

[fringe sierra]

Lol right I completed it in like 6 hours and just started roaming to bring more stuff back

And help the community total stuff ofc

[cunning sandal]

thats what i been doing lol

[open dagger]

I see that you are new as i was just a few months ago so a few noob tips - when you return to the terminus on the Anomaly you will have to click on "end expedition" bottom to unlock the transfer screen - it's the second "End Expedition" button that will close the transfer ability. Just click first to unlock, load, create a save point by entering/exiting your ship then use your character screen to return to main save. Scoop up the goodies, save, return to terminus to restart expedition then rinse and repeat until you have everything you want. Second - make sure you have an empty ship and/or multitool slot open before copying your ship/tool.

[astral adder]

At space stations and nexus it will be under the space station with rendezvous 2.

#nms-expedition message

[gray mortar]

i'm clearly missing something obvious. how do i get pure ferrite to repair my ship? everything i'm finding is either dust or requires advanced mining laser

[open dagger]

Start with regular ferrite and use your portable refiner to refine the pure out of it

[gray mortar]

don't have a portable

that's the rub

[exotic inlet]

Open your build menu and craft one

[gray mortar]

not available

[exotic inlet]

for my own question, How do I locate a stormy planet

[exotic inlet]

That is not your build menu

that is your exosuit modification menu in your inventory

[open dagger]

Use the Z key and select the portable refiner from the build menu (on PC)

[gray mortar]

oh geez, i'm thinking of the backpack refiner

thanks guys

i've spent way too long trying to sort that out 🤦

[slender sinew]

Hey everyone I'm about to fight the sentinels but the boltcaster isn't working for Me

Is there a suitable upgrade... Something that fires like an automatic rifle

I don't know which module has that

Help

[naive crypt]

Pulse spitter

[solemn bane]

If you want easy mode, go for the Neutron Cannon

[naive crypt]

It's basically an AR

IF you have the minotaur with the cannon upgrades, its gonna be easy and fun

[open dagger]

Agree, the Minotaur with upgraded canon makes it far easier, protects you from damage from environment while fighting sentinels

for my multitool i use scatter blaster with plasma on back bar. Do not have any problems.. also, i will put the minotaur on AI and fight along side of it. super fun

[shy nimbus]

Wait whatxs the current exp?

[open dagger]

starship troopers thing - a lot of fun

[misty plinth]

Liquidators Redux - check events for details

[shy nimbus]

Oh no no. I already got it. I think I mighta missed the previous exp. Oh well lol

[naive crypt]

Lubricators, Exp 13

[naive crypt]

Last one was Adrift

The one with the Siren Culture

[simple mulch]

does anyone know if "rotten meat" counting works for that 150 kill count per day? most likely i kill those green creatures that spawn around every place and landmark mill you hit. thought if i start if "0" in my inventory it fills after a while i have a 100+ of that rotten meat (and that feels like i killed app 30-50 of them).

[toxic mortar]

No some can drop more than one, use "Catalogue & Guide" > "Mercenaries Guild" and look at the numbers for Horrors Killed and Sentinels Killed

[simple mulch]

@toxic mortar ty

[civic kelp]

what kill count per day?

why are we at stage 4 of the milestone still?

who's not killing the monsters here?

[remote thunder]

i'm not sure if it's the same as exp14's original run, but in the original run the kill contribution cap per day was 150 daily kills per player

[civic kelp]

not sure what it means, but each step in my (translated) version said

50, 100, 150 and now- 200 kills

[remote thunder]

that's the personal goal, 50 additional kills per optional milestone

[civic kelp]

milestone selected, bottom right screen

[remote thunder]

last one will read 250, for example

[civic kelp]

yeah. what's the difference? that's the personal requirement to obtain a reward?

[remote thunder]

once community research for a given tier is complete, yes, to be able to complete and claim the related optional

[civic kelp]

so the progress is for a total amount of kills, not number of players who complete their personal goals?

[remote thunder]

what you see in !tier is connected to the global kill count, from all exp14 players combined

[civic kelp]

!tier

[unkempt kraken]

@civic kelp Please use this command in #bot-spam.

[remote thunder]

personal goals or additional kills, both count for global kill count

[civic kelp]

I see, tbh didn't know I can contribute past personal goal cap

[remote thunder]

most players i know will knock out all non-optionals first, then start helping with kills

that said

do remember that this research has already been completed

iow - in exp14's original run

any player can goto anomaly qs shop right now and pay up the quicksilver to get the liquidator techs

[civic kelp]

yeah, but getting the flamethrower here is more fun, right?

do those upgrades look the same?

[remote thunder]

well, it'll be a free unlock, instead of having to pay quicksilver

that's why people wait on the optionals

before ending

[remote thunder]

sorry which ones?

[civic kelp]

same as me, obviously

minotaur ones, from qs and exp

[remote thunder]

they're the exact same

they're in qs shop now because we unlocked them in exp14's original run

[civic kelp]

but they're different than the questline, right?

[remote thunder]

different, yes; but hardframe tech cannot be unlocked in any other way besides a trace of metal secondary quest

[civic kelp]

wait, what's a hardframe?

[remote thunder]

liquidator and hardframe sets are two tech sets for minotaur

hardframe body, right arm, etc

liquidator body, liquidator right arm, etc

[civic kelp]

I see. i've finished the trace of metal chain, my minotaur is blue etc.

[remote thunder]

hardframe makes it that blue

cannot be color customized

[civic kelp]

unfortunately, yes

[remote thunder]

liquidator tech set also overrides appearance, but can be color customized

[civic kelp]

nice

can I have both sets equipped? do bonuses (like legs) stack?

ahuh

liquidator supersedes in terms of external appearance

[civic kelp]

stat wise they're the same?

okay 😉

[remote thunder]

well, not quite - no hardframe tech provides flamethrower weapon

the rest is pretty much the same

[civic kelp]

right

thanks 🙂

btw how mundane the aquarius is?

[remote thunder]

pretty chill

[toxic mortar]

I claimed a settlement in the exp now. :/

[toxic mortar]

But you get a stackable figurine

[remote thunder]

tentacles dude

same buff as artemis

[wintry void]

Lets say its the only redux out of all the expeditions from 1-16 ill be giving a miss

[civic kelp]

I see

[naive crypt]

I wouldn't say Mundane, more relaxing

The community makes it so much better with player made bases

[toxic mortar]

So, Settlements in this exp spawn a lot of horrors.

[iron tendon]

In terms of the "liquidator right arm/ left arm" etc. Will those rewards be transferred over to the primary save once I finish the exp?

[wintry void]

Id say more mind numbing

to the point i can feel the brain cells dying

but thats me, some people find fishing "enteraining"

[naive crypt]

How dare you, those geks are trying their best for their overseer!!

[civic kelp]

not sure about plans, but you can craft them and transfer as technology for sure

wow, finally got that exotic ship!

[iron tendon]

That's a good idea. I was thinking of doing that for the oscillator weapon upgrade

What is the ultimate reward for this exp (as in, the thing that you will claim from the quicksilver vendor after the exp)? I didn't manage to complete it last time.

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.

[indigo falcon]

you'll need to complete the previous expedition fully (i.e. put in stuff for transfer back, make sure any ship/mt you want t ocopy are equipped, click the 'yes please really end" button, watch all the units and nanites get tallied up) before you can start an expedition on that save.

[remote thunder]

@amber mountain ^ see above

[amber mountain]

i did that and copied my multitool from it

[indigo falcon]

you collected the units and nanites on the main save?

[remote thunder]

and loot from exp terminus main save side

[vital vine]

Just remember i have bases at pillars on a few aggressive planets i am working on taking over the one in the poopoopeepee galaxy the amount of loot is amazing from gravitino balls to sac venom and larval cores i have a teleport at a sentinel pillar on each planet i so all you havr to do is interface with the computer and shut them down unless you wanna fight its up to you. bring your minotaur. some of them even produce mega amounts of storm crystals as well i belive the one i have pictured has plenty of living pearls and haldal cores everything a underwater base needs. hope everyone had a beautiful holiday where ever you may be

especially if you are having trouble with credits or want all the credit like my dumb butt

[toxic mortar]

Honestly, if you want credits just drop a base at a Harmonic Camp. Scrapping 1 Sentinel Ship will give you more units and nanites than the entire inventory in your screenshot and each base will let you farm as many as you want in only a few minutes each.

[vital vine]

i have to admit i did not even know about them until i started geting void motes and i aske d today but this is a lovely idea thank you although i wil still have fun messin wiyh them flying garbage cans lol thantks agin for the ideamuch

sorry my dyslexia and inner ear are bad today im not wording well

[mortal nimbus]

Is Liquidators still ongoing?

... nevermind, it's right in here as an event.

My bad

[kind spruce]

Hi, I have issues completing the defeat "2 sentinels walkers". I did beat 2 of them. Is having the minotaur in AI mode an issue to complete the tasks?

Not sure what to so next

Thanks

[mortal nimbus]

Did you defeat the Hardframe-looking one with arms or the really tall ones with no arms?

You need to defeat 2 of the tall ones at Alert level 5

[kind spruce]

I think I was at alert level 4 only.

I will give another try. Thanks for the tips

[mortal nimbus]

What you're looking to defeat is this

I was a bit vague, providing image for clarity

[wintry void]

YOU also need the final shot maybe, not the minotaur

[kind spruce]

Thank you both

[mortal nimbus]

This too

[kind spruce]

I will keep that in mind

[knotty vector]

How do you finish the predator agressiok task

[fringe sierra]

See I went underwater to get the underwater beast milestone. Idr what it's called and I pissed of another giant ass looking sword fish and it was the one who triggered it.

Though I bet the initial beast u have to kill would work too

[slender sphinx]

i cant really seem to find portals for rendezvous 2 😦

can someone help

2nd phase milestone 1

[wraith junco]

Try teleporting from space station

[slender sphinx]

yes im here

been trying several space stations 😦

[wraith junco]

Look for names like RDV2

Or u can check pins for system address and name

[slender sphinx]

its what im doing

but i cant find

travelled to a lot of systems already following the expedition route

[iron sedge]

Can't you just jump there with hyperdrive? I generally find rdv bases in expeditions don't appear in the teleporter menu until I've visited the system

[slender sphinx]

i cant

ive been following the expedition route since this morning

ive been on countless systems

[wraith junco]

Did u jumped into black hole?

[fringe sierra]

@slender sphinx yea I think u got a bug it should take like 3 or 4 jumps at the very most if u don't bring over a ship from the Anomaly through ur main save.

Go back to the first rdv point and try again

It's happened to my wife once before or myself. Idr thanks TBI. But we went back to the beginning one and tried again and it worked properly then

[slender sphinx]

Alright ill try

[slender sphinx]

i cant remember any black hole

found it

it was bugged really

[simple mulch]

450 kills today. next step will be 4k 🙂

[long musk]

Does everyone get a 2x2sc multi tool as their starter ?

[finite scaffold]

It copies the SC layout from the MT you had before you started

[long musk]

Oh, no wonder. I had a 2x2 multi tool from my main save

[pastel bone]

Once I am at "200 and counting" for individual kills on the optional expedition phase, i cant contribute anymore, right?

for the day

[remote thunder]

afaik, that 200 is the accumulated kills, 50 per each phase's optional milestone, that you did so far - the hint doesn't show how many you've got in total, or how many kills are left for the daily cap per player

[pastel bone]

damnnnnnn

[remote thunder]

see that post from gunter

[pastel bone]

okay well since im not sure, ill just start again tomorrow lol

i think im capped

thank you!!

[gray mortar]

If I import a b class mt and get it to s class, is that third rank up reward just wasted?

[misty plinth]

You could use it on the starter MT you get with the expedition but - yeah - pretty much.

[gray mortar]

Dang, I was hoping it would yield an item like what happens if you back out of the Mt slot expansions

[misty plinth]

AFAIK no such item exists 🫤

[gray mortar]

nothing that i can find either. ah well. i can't copy multiple MTs at different stages, either, can i? like i can't copy my 2x2 in, get it to S, then copy it out and copy my a-class staff in for the final one?

[remote thunder]

(only items that existed that could do a class upgrade were memory fragments (afaik, during expedition7 only, so they don't drop in game today), it would apply to ship if player was in ship, and to MT if player was on foot)

[gray mortar]

the walking wiki has spoken 🙏

[remote thunder]

try this: check what MT you can copy. save. pause/options/return to primary. change equipped MT, now update restore point again (aka save). resume expedition. check what MT shows up for copy in exp terminus

you should be able to do this

iow - the exp terminus reads whatever is saved in that "common space" between primary and expedition

[gray mortar]

but i can't copy it OUT of the expedition until completion, so still only 1, no?

[remote thunder]

you can

[gray mortar]

oh snap

this changes everything lol

[remote thunder]

exp terminus ship+MT copy function isn't tied to exp finish/end state

[misty plinth]

Basically upgrading the same MT though isn't it?

[remote thunder]

just remember that if it says that it can't copy - then you must scrap existing gear, ship or MT, first

[gray mortar]

also are the atlas staves given by expedition randomly named/statted or is everyone's identical?

[remote thunder]

yeah; basically, you upgrade it in expedition, save, return to primary, scrap existing, copy from expedition, done

[gray mortar]

thanks for that extra explanation, i would have failed the int roll on that and been confused

[remote thunder]

atlas scepter should read atlas scepter when claimed from qs shop, but it will most likely have diff names when copied

[remote thunder]

always feel free to ask for further explanation; if i don't know, i'll try asking around to friends or figuring it myself if i can

[gray mortar]

(i hadn't even realized i needed extra lol i would have just tried it hours later and failed)

[remote thunder]

and btw

the same thing will be possible with exp terminus stash slots, when you end but before you finish

[gray mortar]

this makes me happy

[gray mortar]

THAT'S super useful, dang

[remote thunder]

yeah, you could abuse the mechanic a bit

this is again because of the shared space between primary and exp

all that said, it's all in the same save file

[lucid python]

Are all systems on the same optional milestones progress?

Switch, PlayStation, Xbox

[remote thunder]

yep

[lucid python]

Ok so last I checked we were about 80 percent done with stage 4.

[ivory wasp]

Is it just me or is it absurdly hard to find a sentinel to fight in this expedition?

'High sentinel activity' planets seem to have literally 0 wandering sentinels

[remote thunder]

• look for aggressive sentinel planets and loot a gravitino ball
• locate secure buildings, always guarded by sentinels (use secure planetary charts or minotaur's radar array)

[cedar depot]

I have made 26 locations all at abondoned buildings

Have at em'

[remote thunder]

woah

thank you!

[cedar depot]

Decided to mess around with a idea

Tell me if any issues occur at these points

[ocean gorge]

Just remember only one base of yours is uploaded, per planet I think.

Now I don’t know if it is the same base that subsequently loads for each player who looks at a teleporter list in that system Or, if you uploaded multiple bases on the same planet for example, does the game just select one at random to display when someone accesses the network (meaning the game makes the choice at that time which one to display). Someone like bk might know more about this sort of thing

[remote thunder]

ahhhh dang i forgot this

lolll

[bitter anchor]

Afaik you can only upload one base per planet

[remote thunder]

i didn't even consider the fact that they're all on the same planet

[cedar depot]

Well that cuts the number down to about 13

[remote thunder]

oh they're not 😅

[cedar depot]

i did a 2 per planet thing

[remote thunder]

yeah, only 1 uploaded base per planet per account

[ocean gorge]

It lets me upload more than one base per planet, like the game doesn’t say NO YOU CANT UPLOAD, but I just think it doesn’t show them to others

[cedar depot]

Wait

[remote thunder]

only the last uploaded one on any given planet is visible

[cedar depot]

I might have forgotten to upload them

Whoops

[remote thunder]

i just went like - "dang look at all the work they went through, i gotta say something"

i didn't even look at it from the support pov

lmao

that's funny to me, sorry

[cedar depot]

Ill note that for next time

[ocean gorge]

I tend to look at things in a very abstract way, which some people find too abstract, and cold even, but I never mean it to be cold or mean. I am just looking at it logistically
Because I know people are just trying to help, and if I were doing it, I would want to know so I didn’t keep doing something that might not be as effective as doing it another way

[cedar depot]

Very helpful, makes it so I wont waste time when I go at it again

[ocean gorge]

Look at it this way…
You’ll never hurt for larval cores ever again😅

[cedar depot]

Lol

Ill just have to figure out transfering it to my main account

[ocean gorge]

You keep the bases

[cedar depot]

*save

[solemn bane]

Moral of the story: never do your part.

[ocean gorge]

Oh, it’s not using an existing save?

[cedar depot]

No

[ocean gorge]

Aww, damn

[cedar depot]

I didnt realize that was possible

I messed up

[ocean gorge]

Well you could keep the glyphs for the systems

Those are in the pins too

[cedar depot]

Ahh

Ight

Ill figure out using em

[remote thunder]

tbf - you'll just farm nav data - eventually you'll just have stacks of it - and find plenty of other abandoned buildings for larval cores in your main save. if these were locations you really liked, then that's a diff story, and i'd suggest also grabbing latitude+longitude (<#bot-spam message>) in addition to glyphs

[cedar depot]

Not really - I just did this to help others.

[remote thunder]

you're so nice 🙂

or iow, that's so nice of you 🙂

[cedar depot]

Ok- 15 points should be uploaded to kill things at

Go get em'

[lucid python]

Hey guys. Quick question. I was crashing after 15 seconds of logging in. Over and over. I went airplane mode and was able to get to the space station.

Now I logged back in and am having no issues.

Anyone have any clue why that happened?

[remote thunder]

weird - maybe some problem caused by another player that was in the instance the game was trying to connect you to at first

[lucid python]

Never going back to that planet that's all I know.

[woven shadow]

I think I met my quota of green gooblies and Sentinels to kill today

So I’m just gonna get a couple salvaged frigate modules and log off

[grim hornet]

what expedition are we in? my game says it's Cursed and i'm updated. PS4

[bitter anchor]

We should be in liquidators

[grim hornet]

thanks. for some reason my game had it wrong but the Space Anomally was correct 🙂

[chilly torrent]

What's the next expedition?

[finite scaffold]

Aquarius

[slender sphinx]

where to find creatures with viciousness over 9?

[finite scaffold]

Rendezvous 4 system, Lungleb, planet Erkant

[frozen laurel]

tier 4 complete!

[slender sphinx]

somewhere in phase 3 systems?

i am currently at phase 3 milestones havent reach phase 4 yet

[waxen mirage]

The game is stuck on loading. What do I do? Over 80 sec.

[finite scaffold]

You can select the rendezvous 4 milestone and just go to the system and then the planet

You don't have to do the rendezvous to get it

[slender sphinx]

will try

[finite scaffold]

Planet Erkant, non rare on the surface

EZPZ

[slender sphinx]

thanks a lot 😄

[waxen mirage]

Is there a website that displays the total number of kills for all community players?

[unkempt kraken]

@tight cipher

No gifs in this channel please

[opal glade]

"I DIDN'T DO F****** S***"

XD

im assuming thats the correct response to "I did my part"

[slender sphinx]

how to lure deep sea monsters

[frozen laurel]

Look for Alluring Specimen icon underwater.

[slender sphinx]

i tried but i cant seem to find one

did i miss something

[finite scaffold]

Maybe deeper water?

[frozen laurel]

Try a different body of water.

[finite scaffold]

Has to be pretty dang deep

[slender sphinx]

will try, thanks guys.

[cedar depot]

Not even go deeper

Just go underwater and use analysis visor

[finite scaffold]

When I found mine I had to use my nautilus in deeper water to find, thats pretty lucky being so shallow

Guess it depends on the planet

[cedar depot]

I will say, the fact I get grayscaled in the planet is fun

[hollow osprey]

Is this expedition faster than the last few have been?

[proper girder]

...why the hell do these expeditions always make us fly these shitty cargo ships at the start?

[finite scaffold]

I think it's kind of funny tbh. Give us one of the worst ships and toss us out in the middle of nowhere.

[proper girder]

I need to get my hands on a proper ship soon...

[quaint urchin]

Once you get to a Space Station, check the Teleporter. Someone marked a crashed A-Class ship you could scrap, then use those funds to buy from a NPC in the space station. Else, do like I did... I had ships I've earned in other Expeditions, so I just bought the Starborne Runner from the Quicksilver Vendor in the Anomaly after my first warp.

[proper girder]

True

Ah, I gotta warp first?

[quaint urchin]

I did enjoy the experience of flying a box of crackers with fruit fly wings...

[finite scaffold]

I like to find a dissonant planet and get an echo locator to find a sentinel ship if I'm not using my copied ship from main save. Perhaps more work, but much more aesthetic for the eyes

[proper girder]

That's what I want, an interceptor. I'm hoping there's a portal to one nearby...

[quaint urchin]

Yep, there's a base at an A-Class if I recall. Just check the teleporters for that too.

I'm just not sure how far you have to go to get it to show up. Like it might show up in the starter system or it might not show until RDV 2.

[proper girder]

Yeah I saw that one but I want to find an actual interceptor, if I can avoid doing space combat.

Because players can get an interceptor from the same spot I've seen. It's how I got one in the previous expedition, I got a beacon to a spot with other players around it so I knew it was a common one.

I just need to find one...

[finite scaffold]

Dissonance resonators can be really fickle giving out the echo locators sometimes

[proper girder]

I always just fought the capital ship.

[finite scaffold]

Oh for the AI carrier* fragment?

That works too. Echo locators will always take you to a camp where you can find a signal to a ship though, so both work

The camps are beneficial that you can ping more than one ship with it, but if you're only looking for a first it's not much better

[proper girder]

I don't know where to get one other than fighting the capital.

Also I see no A class at this base, it's empty :/

[finite scaffold]

You can get the fragments also from random nexus missions or really rarely from frigate expeditions

The echo locators are a random drop from the dissonance resonators that also drop the inverted mirrors. Usually surrounded by corrupted sentinels

[proper girder]

I mean I need one now, rather than when I have a freighter.

[proper girder]

...uh, when do we unlock our ability to go to the anomaly? I really wanna get rid of this pile of shit...

[finite scaffold]

After first warp from hyperdrive

[gray mortar]

(this is always the case, in every expedition, and i think main saves)

[proper girder]

I did warp

It's not here

[gray mortar]

you have to summon it.

[proper girder]

...wait

(No I know that)

I swear this wasn't on my list a moment ago... did the game need to catch up?

[gray mortar]

(i'm willing to blame the game if you are)

[proper girder]

😛

[gray mortar]

idk if i'm doing something wrong, but i can't seem to abuse this for loot, only mt and ship

[proper girder]

Ah balls... is my quicksilver separate per save?

[gray mortar]

afaik yes?

[proper girder]

Bah

Also damn it, Special Rewards are unavailable in expedition so I can't get the that special golden ship. I do have the special cargo ship though, but I need more quicksilver first.

[gray mortar]

honestly i don't think it's worth the nanites to bring in a ship

[finite scaffold]

Idk, I could care less about 2800 nanites for my 2x2 infraknife ship that melts other ships in a second or two

Nanites are fairly easy to come by, not a huge loss. I've already accumulated almost half a mill nanites in my exped file

[gray mortar]

for me it's a matter of trivializing an already easy mission

personal preference tho

[proper girder]

Couldn't* care less ;P

I desperately wish I could find an interceptor so I don't have to find a capital ship...

[placid dew]

I'm back from my vacation trip! And apparently the expedition community objective is still in phase 5 at 7%

I can still do my part!

[knotty vector]

is it possible to finish the optinal parts rn or do I have to wait for people to do there part, because the optional parts are not progressing for me no matter how many enemys I kill.

[misty plinth]

We're in the final optional so we're just working to complete it.

[dawn nimbus]

Man the other day I went to town on some sentinels and this guy showed up and we beat them down together, and it was great

And then they just froze in place like that with a bunch of sentinels also just frozen like they were posing for a photo lol

Actually we whupped two walkers but I didn’t get any achievements for that 😦

I wonder if that user is on here lol if they are, 👋 that was fun!

[proper girder]

I'm having trouble getting the Metamorphosis objective to work... I'm in space scanning but it's not making anything show up. I need to crush a grub.

Anyone know why?

[misty plinth]

You crush the grub while on planet to trigger an event.

Any planet with Vile Brood should work

[iron tendon]

I crushed it in a space station to prevent the bugs spawning and it still registered for me

[misty plinth]

Oh - I thought the point was to trigger the event. Good to know this is an option.

[mellow badge]

how many Expeditions has there been so far?

I googled

if Aquarius is ran again, I can at least do it this time, forgot all about it first time around and missed it

[civic kelp]

unfortunately coop is buggy here

it's fun, but buggy

[hollow fern]

Thats so cool, running into someone else

[peak creek]

[topaz apex]

If I already did liquidators, are there any extra rewards if I do the redux too?

nope, no new unique rewards

Each person can only contribute 150 kills per day. Anything extra is not counted.

[strong saffron]

Any suggestions for a good storm planet ?

There are a bunch. Many of the RDVs have storms. The starting planet had storms.

Most have them.
