nms-expedition

[ashen shore]

Thank you! Got it 😄

[rugged bobcat]

Gotcha, when I get on tmrw if I still need it I will certainly try looking, glad you found it!

[misty plinth]

Alternatively you can harvest di-hydrogen and carbon - make di-hydrogen jelly THEN make Life Support Gels. It's enough to get you to a place where you can get oxygen.

[ashen shore]

Cool, I never knew that - thanks!

Is there any way to mine copper deposits a bit faster? I've got almost no time until dinner haha

It's taking a while 👀

[misty plinth]

If you are mining by hand - not really - I don't know that putting the terrain manipulator in a SC slot helps.

If you are mining it to turn into chromatic metal consider going to a planet with activated copper so the return for effort is better.

[ashen shore]

Oh ok...I can't travel very far. But anyways, got a lot of copper now should be fine hopefully!

[misty plinth]

Another idea - find a way to make monetary units then buy the chromatic metal or copper as needed.

Sometimes earning units is quicker than finding deposits and mining them out.

[ashen shore]

Thanks, um my ship doesn't have a hyperdrive?

And I can't install it?

Very confused

[misty plinth]

@ashen shore Check your first phase milestones

[ashen shore]

LOL 🤣 it was silliness all along

Thx for the patience

[misty plinth]

My pleasure

[steady spire]

Is there anything special about the Celeste or is it just another ship?

[misty plinth]

Just another shuttle with a name. Something to add flavor to the lore of the expedition.

[steady spire]

Thanks, then I'm gonna get a better ship first chance

[ashen shore]

I'm pretty sure it's just another normal ship. Nothing special

Oh sorry Tojamn whoops 😬

[misty plinth]

@ashen shore It's OK - nothing to be sorry about.

[storm fiber]

how do you fish using a lishing line?

[misty plinth]

Phase 1 - milestone 3 - unlock and collect the fishing rig - install it on your multi-tool. Select fishing rig and then cast your line - wait for it to go taught and reel it in.

[storm fiber]

weird question, where do I go to catch an item that is not a fish?

[low jackal]

just fish without bait

you will eventually catch random items

[misty plinth]

Also a good idea to keep that particular milestone selected while you fish.

[obtuse bronze]

Hello everyone I'm on phase 2 milestone 8, I've traveled to several systems with water and none of the water ones are irradiated the plants that are is just a desert not a single drop of water to be found

[civic kelp]

hi, do we have a list of items and materials to bring for this expedition?

[lament pawn]

new expedition?

[ashen shore]

An expedition that was brought back

[lament pawn]

which one?

[ashen shore]

Aquarius

[lament pawn]

ohhh, what are some of the major rewards?

is there a ship?

[ashen shore]

I don't think there's a ship for this one?

The next one should have

Someone else here will know for sure

[lament pawn]

aw dang it i really want a ship

[obtuse bronze]

It's a set of armor and the next should be a ship

[steady spire]

I take it you just leave the skiff? I don't see a way to store it..

[lyric fiber]

If you find an answer to this, let me know please. I have tried over 30 water planets, followed the rendezvous lines yet nothing..

[steady spire]

I'm on that task right now as well, I will keep you posted

[hollow shore]

Works like an exocraft, just spawn it whenever you need it. Can leave it behind without issue. No requirements for spawning

[steady spire]

👍 thanks

[hollow shore]

It also has its own specific inventory, in case you had not noticed. You just aim and interact with it to for access

[iron sedge]

@lyric fiber @obtuse bronze
Assuming it's the same setup as the original aquarius exp, the rendezvous systems have all the planets you need for the biome-specific milestones, but not in the obvious order (so phase 4 might require a biome you can find in the rendezvous 1 system, etc).

[civic kelp]

there's a guide by aiming4gaming on youtube

I believe the guy researched the planets and systems

[iron sedge]

Recommend moving through the rendezvous systems in order but check all the phases and milestones to see if there's something in your current system that will suit, rather than trying to work through the phases in order.

[steady spire]

There is a GREEN system called: Skoylanesk , that is about one jump from the third checkpoint in the expedition. The planet titled: yoyoyo , this is where I completed the irradiated fish task. Didn't use any bait and it took about 15 minutes.

[crimson sundial]

is there an easy way to find an ocean on a planet in a water system?

[unreal gale]

Do we get a fish tank to display the fishes?

Too bad

[naive crypt]

We get A tank that displays fishes

Not the ones you get tho

I like to think that's because whatever you fish out just dies instantly

And when you release it, you get nanites because of the rotting corpse coming into contact with the water

That is why, do NOT drink the water

[heady basin]

absolutely nonconsentual RNG

[naive crypt]

Tip: You need to be affected by the storm to catch storm fishes, fishing from shelter doesn't count

[shrewd pelican]

A cool set of armour at that

It's icon looks meh.. but in practice it looks damn goos

Good*

[naive crypt]

Next exped has the Boundary Herald, an S class explorer

[lament pawn]

sounds epik

[finite rover]

any qs out of this one?

[naive crypt]

It's based off of the Millenial Falcon

I regularly use it in expeds since it basically takes care of all my warp needs

And Launch needs

[peak kernel]

That was not the case with the first time the expedition was around. That time I found water in a cave and was able to fish during a storm in safety and I think I got the special storm fish in there.

[naive crypt]

As long as it says "storm" or "extreme storm" on your hazard prot its valid

[toxic mortar]

Finally finished my base, now on to exp!

[heady basin]

i'm surprised exo-skiff doesn't offer enviro resistance of some kind, even if it's just a few %

[quaint urchin]

It used to if you stood in the perfect spot in the middle of it.

I haven't used it yet this time.

[wraith junco]

The design is to open imo. It works more as wind catcher imo counting how much times it fliped during storms on me xd

[civic kelp]

is it fun?

btw does photonix core from starborn runner stack with other upgrades? it's unique, right?

[wraith junco]

Thats why pepole copied it from exp save over and over.

[tough sluice]

Am I missing something with Scales of Fire? Not sure if I'm in the right spot. I'm on the right planet anyway.

Is there a right spot? Or just fish anywhere?

Ah nm, I got it 🙂

[atomic estuary]

Just on the right planet, fish anywhere and you will eventually get it

[tough sluice]

Yeah just took a while!

Now I just need one more large fish and I'm done!

[civic kelp]

ok, gotta do the same

[blazing fossil]

Damn they reduced the storm fish requirement to 1

Probably for the better

I spent 6 hours looking for the storm fish last run

[wraith junco]

I got the storm fish at last second of storm

[naive crypt]

It is

[naive crypt]

Large fish only appear in deep waters

50u

[tough sluice]

Ah thanks

[wraith junco]

Rdv 5 planet has big water animals.

[wise meteor]

Just spent ages getting enough stuff to make some bionic lures to catch the 2 "Colossal" fish. Only to notice you only get +2% size with this bait. Using some of the other fish you catch as bait can give e.g. +24%. I fairly quickly caught my two large fish in 88 M water using other fish as bait. Just FYI

[bitter anchor]

I use cooked meat for bait. It gives like a +40 to size and +20 to rarity so yet cheap and good

[craggy arch]

Bionic lures are for legendary, not specifically for large.

[silver vessel]

I saw a utopia speed in the nexus yesterday and took pictures. I have all the expedition ships except that one, and I'm pissed. Please let us replay an expedition of our choice hello games.

[naive crypt]

They did give us Exped 2 last year so that's not out of the realm of possibility

[bitter anchor]

I could trade you one

[supple oyster]

Hey guys, first expedition ever here. Question about the skiff. Does it retain its inventory if I were to leave planet?

My exosuit is crammed and need to build a base or hit up a space station to sell. Also is it more lucrative to sell raw fish or cook them up?

[remote thunder]

just sell raw for the milestone and also in general

[heady basin]

What happens when you do an expedition on a main account? I've only ever done them on new accounts

[woven shadow]

Okay, gotta find a radioactive planet for this milestone. But I believe there I one on the expedition route

Oops I accidentally did a piracy

[remote thunder]

gentle reminder: any planet with water with gamma root on resource list; fish has to be uncommon or rarer, and description has to say "only caught in irradiated biome"

[pure sedge]

Y’all recommend I should bring my ship to expedition?

[silver vessel]

I'm trying to dredge up a message in a bottle at rendezvous 3. But it's not happening. Just non stop trash fish. The mission is equipped

[weary badge]

Take off land on water a bit away and cast from ship.

[silver vessel]

will do

[surreal mantle]

Do I have to be outside for storm fish?

[weak trench]

where to find irradiated fish?

[surreal mantle]

Look for systems with water

[crystal matrix]

Not in the system where the milestone first shows up. If you go to further systems on the path, you'll find people have built bases for irradiated fishing.

[crystal matrix]

This was my last and most painful milestone. I just hopped non-expedition systems until I found a good stormy planet with water. The ones in the expedition path had storms so short and far between it was a PITA.

[weak trench]

cannot find

[surreal mantle]

Keep looking! You got this :D

[weak trench]

lol

i mean there are so many

water systems

[surreal mantle]

Yea I'm on an extreme weather planet, so I got storms pretty often, I just can't figure out if I am allowed to fish from inside my base

[crystal matrix]

I think I hopped six non-expedition systems before I got this to trigger.

[weary badge]

try Extreme Weather planets

[crystal matrix]

People are compaining on Reddit. (surprise!)

[weak trench]

i cannot even find any bases for it yet i found bases for later expeditions

[remote thunder]

you are

[surreal mantle]

I'm not sure if we all share the same planets for Rendevous location, but for me the fourth Rendevous had irradiated fish :D

[surreal mantle]

Neat, thanks! :D

[ruby chasm]

So i'm trying to find a scorched planet for this exp and no where i go has one. I went to a station to look at other bases and not even those have what i need.

[sick niche]

this expedition is very chill

I like it

my current ship doesn't seem to show the outside temp...

[remote thunder]

any planet with water with solanium on resource list; have you gone through all rendezvous systems, and none had a scorched biome planet with water? then, remember that if you obtain at least 1 solanium, you can use catalog&guide to locate such a planet

for example, could refine it, or buy it from some random pilot that landed on <anywhere but a space station or the middle of nowhere i.e. black market pilots>

[sick niche]

second rendezvous for me

[remote thunder]

always look to rendezvous systems first for possible targets

[sick niche]

good thing you mentioned it now I'll plop a base here, I'm only on phase 2

[remote thunder]

remember that we don't have to complete all milestones from any given phase before switching to the next, unless told so

[wraith junco]

Usualy rdv systems have the things needed

[remote thunder]

@ruby chasm ^ see above

[remote thunder]

ftr, yep, same rdv planets for all players (further down, what POI gets selected for each player, depends on what kind of POI is being used e.g. there's only 1 portal per planet, but there's many trade outposts)

[weak trench]

bk when will next expedition start?

[remote thunder]

see <#nms-expedition message>

[weak trench]

also is there a way to get special ship from last month

[remote thunder]

iron vulture?

[weak trench]

yes

one which was available for 1 week

[remote thunder]

sure; could get parts from another player or service bot and build it, or get it gifted by another player, or save edit/mod

[sick niche]

I hate doing it but I think I'm going to have save edit for that D:

the ship looks so nice

[remote thunder]

it does, i love it

maneuverability? pfft - i'm an immortal vulture, i don't need to dodge bullets

😂

[weary badge]

or suped-up Rad, too small and agile for bullets 😂

[weak trench]

so if i deploy a rigg and store fish then will the rigg store them forever?

even if i despawn them

[woven shadow]

Oh! I was looking for cadmium and happened to find a system with an irradiated planet

[remote thunder]

yes

[woven shadow]

One with water on it I mean

[silver vessel]

trapping 6 fish with an automated trap is irritating

[remote thunder]

be in the system, remember that you can build more than 1 trap

[silver vessel]

I have to hang around in the same systems as the traps?

[remote thunder]

yeah, if you want to get 1 fish per hour, or leave them and come back tomorrow

leaving and coming back tomorrow wont have lots of fish though

but should be enough for the milestone

[weak trench]

wow such huge beasts can i tame it

[remote thunder]

yep; bugs are tameable

[weak trench]

it's huge

lol

how to catch frozen fish?

[remote thunder]

goto any planet with water with frost crystal on resource list, fish until you catch a fish that says that can only be caught in frozen, icy waters in the description

[weak trench]

yeah just caught one

[remote thunder]

no special bait required, unless rarity is required ofc

[weak trench]

uncommon?

[remote thunder]

yep, that's rarity; common, uncommon, rare, legendary

can use some rarity bait to improve chances e.g. mealworms, bionic lure

[rocky kernel]

I think at least one handy thing to bring if starting from a save, at least from watching and recalling watching others in the last time it was run, is a Trade Rocket for selling all the fish you catch while out. Or you could go to the anomaly and get plans and make one.

[weak trench]

is irradiated planet nuclear planet?

[remote thunder]

yes; (remember, "does it have gamma root on resource list"?)

[rocky kernel]

I usually keep the inventory upgrades and don't use them during a run so having a Trade Rocket would be key for me. LOL Though I think I need to see if I even need to keep anymore inventory ones for my own inventory. I think I might have saved enough from past runs to fully fill out my storage. Would be nice to use them during exhibitions as I often have to do the inventory management mini game a bit more than I would like. 😂

[remote thunder]

(side note, can also use nutrient processor to store fish)

[finite scaffold]

I'm a fan of dropping a little fishing shack and buying the plans for the trade terminal for inside bases

[woven shadow]

I caught a singing sea-snail!

Just randomly caught this legendary fish

[rocky kernel]

Ah yes, great idea, that one surprised me and I forget about it.

[tough sluice]

Man that was the fastest expedition I’ve ever done. Finished in less than a day.

[civic kelp]

@remote thunder photonic core is the SR mod you once mentioned, right?

[civic kelp]

is it faster than the original?

[remote thunder]

should be

[remote thunder]

yeah, autocorrect there (photonix core), SR as in starborn runner, yep

[civic kelp]

yes:)

so I figured I could multiply it with other expeditions... the thing is, my sentinel ship is nowhere near as manouverable as starborn runner; why? is SR different? am I doing something wrong?

SR just feels different, you know?

[remote thunder]

SR is an exotic underneath, exotics are well known to also be highly maneuverable; quite the opposite from sentinel ships, which only get their full maneuver buff when pulse boosting, which in practice means that they're not great at dogfighting or flying at non-boost speed

[civic kelp]

exotic? as in squiddy-bally-thingy? so they could behave similarly?

[remote thunder]

yep

[tough sluice]

I would sincerely hope so given that it’s only two weeks long.

[civic kelp]

got my first one few days ago, might equip it accordingly and check out then

[civic kelp]

this sentinel behaviour isn't obvious looking at "base stat charts" online. I always "mained" my sentinel ship tbh.

[remote thunder]

exp15 redux milestone objective requirements should be less time consuming

[remote thunder]

yeah, but there's definitely a difference and it was known 🙂 that said, they still pull their own weight just fine

[civic kelp]

where can I read up more on that or* discuss it?

[sullen fulcrum]

I recently had the opportunity to compare a sentinel ship hat I upgraded from A to S class with one from the same planet that was generated at S class. There was a pretty significant difference in feel as well as reported stats with the natural S class being the better of the two.

[remote thunder]

this isn't always the case btw - upgrading ship ties its bonus innate ranges to seed - a different seed could have upgraded to max stats for example

[civic kelp]

seed?

[remote thunder]

i've only seen it mentioned on this discord, i don't really do other media tbh. not many are aware, but i guess that stems from the fact that many still prefer fighters or exotics 🙂

[remote thunder]

the unique value identifier of a whole ship

[ocean gorge]

One thing, sort of getting away from expedition here though, is that interceptors can hover midair (which is nice for some scenarios, like if you’re trying to choose a nice place to build a base, looking for curious deposits as you can fly much slower, etc).

[remote thunder]

very true

[civic kelp]

that's curious, as most ships I see in anomaly (other players' ships, that is) are sentinels

[ocean gorge]

I mean you can always use photo mode to sort of arrive at the same sort of use

[civic kelp]

or you're a newbie, like me

[civic kelp]

so two S tier sentinel ships may have different stats?

[civic kelp]

well, hovering makes flying just easier, at least to me

[ocean gorge]

Sentinel ships also have a lot of inventory cargo space (by default)

[remote thunder]

sure; even if those two ships were both obtained already at s-class - and most often the case when upgrading 2 different sentinel ships to s-class

and undamaged! which is great for scrapping.

[ocean gorge]

That’s true of any wild ships, if you hunt them. You can find different stats (although probably not a huge variation) but the tech and cargo slots can vary a bit

I spend a lot of time at trade posts, in 3 tier systems and outlaw, mostly looking for exotics but I also buy S solars and scrap them

[copper belfry]

I really enjoyed this expedition so much that I'm sad it's complete 😢 💜

[civic kelp]

how different their stats can be? I thought it's about their looks tbh

[civic kelp]

why solars?

[ocean gorge]

Mostly because they have low inventory and so they’re cheaper than the other types

[ruby chasm]

If i have a question for a milestone that's unlocked by a previous one does it need to be marked as spoiler?

[remote thunder]

the difference is only going to be meaningful to players who want to max out their stats; plus, we can't really see most of those innate bonus stats in game, would need the help of a save editor. finally, tech inventory builds basically compensate it for 99% of the gameplay situations players will encounter

[solemn bane]

Too busy watching fires rip through my neighboring cities to list every milestone name, but here's an idea of how much the milestones were reduced for this redux

[ocean gorge]

You don’t need to list any expedition related stuff here as spoilers

[ruby chasm]

oh okay

so for scales of fire do i just throw my line into any water or do i need to use a specific place/bait

[remote thunder]

thank you! stay safe please!

[remote thunder]

just fish with the milestone selected

[ruby chasm]

ok

[remote thunder]

no need to use bait

[ruby chasm]

i just got it 😭

[remote thunder]

hehe works everytime

[ruby chasm]

it took 3 tries

[remote thunder]

@civic kelp that said, !faq-shipspawns has a table that shows those ranges (run it in #bot-spam please)

[ruby chasm]

and it knocked out the legendary milestone too

now i js gotta sell fish and i'm done

||"it wants to be free. You want to be free...|| js let me enjoy my squid 😭

[supple oyster]

any sure fire ways to find a cave?

Cannot for the life of me find one for this last fauna scan

[ruby chasm]

someone told me use photo mode to zoom out and look around the area

[woven shadow]

Hahaha I love the giant hovering pierogi animals on R4

[remote thunder]

near many buildings, can find cave entrances (fly around spamming quick scan with ship); on foot, look for humming sac and/or subterranean relic icons, then dig to them

[supple oyster]

sweet thanks got it, sweet 3,500 nanites ❤️

[ruby chasm]

FINISHED THE EXPEDITION

[cedar depot]

Made a base at a hot planet to fish at, will add portal later

[civic kelp]

thanks, hope you're fine!

[civic kelp]

giant what? 😄

[woven shadow]

A pierogi is a kind of flat dumpling

Or a round ravioli

[gilded orchid]

And delicious

[civic kelp]

well, I'm polish, so I'm pretty sure I know what a pieróg is (singular of pierogi) 😉

I just can't imagine an animal shaped like that... can't wait to reach R4 lol

[gilded orchid]

An aristocrat I see 👑

[woven shadow]

I adopted one as a pet

[civic kelp]

so if base stats are in range of 40-50 and all gear bonuses are % based, it means I could potentially find a ship that's 25% more agile than mine?

[gilded orchid]

Imma eat your pet

[civic kelp]

I'm getting hungry rn

[cedar depot]

There we go

[gilded orchid]

Advanced fishing hut

[woven shadow]

Ooh time to catch night fish

Then I will have high-temperature fish and stormy fish left, I think

[cedar depot]

Im not fishing outside in extreme weather

Have to put in the extra effort

[woven shadow]

I am!

[gilded orchid]

Agreed… I dig a hole

[woven shadow]

I’m an Autophage. Not a bag of carbon, water, calcium, and trace elements like the rest of you

I’m kidding last time I did this I found a base someone had built for storm fishing and I’m going to do that again

[gilded orchid]

I’m definitely an opportunist

[sullen fulcrum]

I just stood on top of my ship for the storms. Jump back in for a sec when hazard protection gets low. Or else stand on the skiff and pop an ion battery. I think it gives you some to start.

[woven shadow]

I could do that too

[gilded orchid]

I definitely do this

[woven shadow]

I have supreme upgrades against all conditions and plenty of ion batteries

[gilded orchid]

Boooooo
😄

[woven shadow]

But I like fishing in a protected base, it’s so decadent LOL

[sullen fulcrum]

I wish the awning on the skiff made it count as an interior. It'd be so much more useful

[surreal mantle]

Yippee! I finished the expedition! :D

Does amount of fish caught go towards any of the statistics when finishing the expedition? I remember last expedition Horrors killed got me rich in Nanites

[uneven dagger]

Any gear recommendations for the fishing expedition?

[peak creek]

need help with sailor's legacy

what is it?!

[sullen fulcrum]

aqua jets, or else enough nanite-able items to instantly bring in your main ship. This is a pretty breezy one you shouldn't need much.

[uneven dagger]

Bet

Ill do aqua jets and metal, I have 3 derelict freighters on standby lol

[woven shadow]

Where’s a good planet to get high-temperature fish?

[peak creek]

find the angler's legacy

guys help??

[sullen fulcrum]

isn't rdv2 a high temp planet? one of the rendezvous planets is anyway

[sullen fulcrum]

if that's the milestone I think it is, you just make it your active mission and fish wherever until you find it

[woven shadow]

Finished the Expedition!

[vapid mulch]

Where can I catch the unusually contaminated fish?

[gilded orchid]

System recommendation for In Hot Water?

[waxen geode]

Wen fishing try closer 2 the shore line

[magic pumice]

Wait I’m stuck trying to find irradiated fish cuz every system I warp to is unsui

Unsuitable

[sullen fulcrum]

I only warped to rendezvous systems to complete the whole expedition. Rendezvous planets 2-4 are all the types of planets you need to fish on, hot, irradiated, and ice. I don't remember if they're in that order or not

[magic pumice]

Damn I checked rendezvous 1 and 2 and both have a radio planet

But they don’t have water

[sullen fulcrum]

I had trouble finding water on the irradiated rendezvous world, there was a suitable one in the next rendezvous system

[magic pumice]

Bet I guess I gotta keep rendezvous-ing

[sullen fulcrum]

Though I'm pretty sure every planet has at least some water and I just didn't look hard enough

[surreal mantle]

Does amount of fish caught go towards any of the statistics when finishing the expedition? I remember last expedition Horrors killed got me rich in Nanites

[remote thunder]

for units

[sullen fulcrum]

You wouldn't happen to know what the most valuable activities are during an expedition, would you? I recall seeing someone during beachhead earn something like 2 million nanites. I remember they had bought like 60+ frigates. I've only ever gotten around 200k for a full fleet. They must have been doing something else too

@sullen fulcrum ^ finishing an expedition (for your convenience, <#nms-questions message>) has an external image with all the rewards and correspondent values (the one i'm attaching here as well)

[sullen fulcrum]

Awesome thanks! Looks like frigates are the most valuable single thing, but I suspect adopting creatures might be fast enough to be worth it. And it looks like expeditions are a decent way to turn extra salvaged technology into nanites, too by buying furniture blueprints.

[wraith junco]

Was one 68ly from rdv1. Red uncharted system

[rocky kernel]

If I'm reading that right I don't have to sell tech I don't bring with me to get nanite rewards? RE the * in the lower right, though it seems to be associated with the units section so not sure. I'll likely keep being paranoid and selling them just in case though. LOL

yep, that would be it

[solemn bane]

Have you tested this recently? I had been habitually selling my tech but decided to test not doing it one expedition, and I didn't seem to get a line-item that I got nanites for stuff in my inventory, only units. Spose I could test again with this expedition.

[surreal mantle]

This is super neat! Thank you

[magic pumice]

Lmao I found a radiated planet for fishing but I can’t find water 😭

[remote thunder]

i think Pixy tested it, yeah

[finite steeple]

try flying around to the other side? you can usually see oceans from just out of the atmosphere. i like to fly around upside down. easier to track everything

[surreal mantle]

@remote thunder Do you know if there's any way to track how many fish I've caught?

[remote thunder]

not that i know of, sorry

[surreal mantle]

Are the Angler's diaries portal codes important?

[short patio]

not for the expedition itself as far as i know

at least i didnt use them and im finished

[remote thunder]

they're the glyph addresses of each rendezvous system iirc

[surreal mantle]

Ah okay, so no need to keep them

[waxen slate]

I'm struggling to find a planet to catch irradiated fish. Anyone have any advice?

[peak creek]

OMG i have fishing into 10+ storms and ive never catch a milestone fish... OMG

[slender sphinx]

#nms-expedition

[waxen slate]

Ignore my message. I've found a system that has an irradiated planet. Now to get some fish 🐟

[peak creek]

this is so frustating... doing 10+ storms and ive never find just one storm fish

[rare furnace]

I've gotten to the first destination planet but the landing beacon takes me to the middle of a mountain range. Anywhere I can land is more than 1000 units from the destination when I use the scanner. Is there a hidden valley somewhere in there, or do I need to hump it?

[fathom gyro]

Yo who wants to play with me

I'm bored let's to the expo co-op

[remote thunder]

note that there's bait for attracting storm fish

[remote thunder]

what i do in these situations is i land as close as i can without wasting too much time, then exit ship and use visor/target sweep to give me a direction; if still too far away to go on foot, i'll use visor to set a custom marker, and sometimes even re-summon my ship on the ground, with its cockpit already facing in the right direction, lined up with target sweep's instruction, so it's just taking off. then i'll often "cheat a little" and make use of photo mode/0% fog/moving sun and look around from above, see if i can find nearest POI (sometimes there's more than one). you may also want to look for comm balls

[rare furnace]

Didn’t think of photo mode, that’ll help because I hit the planet at night and then a storm blew in and I wasn’t seeing nothing. Thanks!

[rocky kernel]

There's also a trick I learned while watching a couple of folks do speed runs of the last exhibition. If you hit the left or right dpad button on a controller, not sure what it is for mouse/keyboard, and you are in first person in your ship you can see the distance to the target on the lower right hand side which can help.

[open dagger]

Typically i scan while approaching the site in the ship, and look for the building icon - it is it 99% of th etime

[rocky kernel]

Yeah, and scanning for buildings helps as well if there aren't too many nearby.

[remote thunder]

i've seen this on exocrafts - but i don't think i've seen it on ships, and i do always fly 1st person (and know about force cycling/force HUD to pop, in fact do it often)

[open dagger]

I am not a fan of those super mountainous planets - especially in weather. Another flight ends in a wall of cumulo-granite 🤣

[open dagger]

ON the PC, you just hit the default C key and do the scan in third person - is that not what you are thinking?

[rocky kernel]

Yeah, I had no idea it worked on ships until I saw it done in a speed run. JasonPlays also explains it a bit more in his newer NMS beginner series for 2025.

[remote thunder]

nope, talking about H or dpad left; initially this only brought up the HUD again, but not too long ago HG added the ability for it to force cycle hints lower right of the screen, and it can be spammed

[unkempt kraken]

-# to view info below, enable embeds

Hints lower right of the screen can be force cycled by just spam pressing H or D-pad Left as needed.

Shared by: bkay201 Contributor(s): Atlas Emissaries

[rocky kernel]

Ah, not that. Let me see if I can find info on it. I may be recalling the wrong button to press. It'll show up in the lower left.

[remote thunder]

but on the ship cockpit itself?

or on the HUD?

[rocky kernel]

Good question. I'm not recalling and it may not have been first person. Let me get the facts right before saying anymore. 😂

I'll find the info.

[remote thunder]

that's okay, no rush

feel free to ping me whenever

[open dagger]

Well this is good to know - thanks bk

[remote thunder]

anytime 🙇‍♂️

[naive prism]

gg!

[remote thunder]

congrats!

[naive prism]

one of my faster times too btw:

[rocky kernel]

Ok, yes, on the reagular HUD UI, lower left, it shows the temp, any hazerdous numbers, and then "Target: ###.#u". And it shows up when you hit left or right on the dpad to show the hud. This is when you are tracking to a POI as part of the game. It only shows the distance though so not the direction.

If you go to JasonPlays video "The Starting Base | No Man's Sky Beginners Guide 2025 Part 2" you can hear him explain and show it about 7 minutes into the video.

[gilded orchid]

Thank you

[rocky kernel]

Had no idea that was there when in the ship, still a bit of a hassle since it doesn't tell you a direction but nice as you can at least get much closer than the large distance it normally sets you down at.

[remote thunder]

ah yeah, this is new to me- this was probably added at the same time as the thing in the exocrafts i was telling you about, it's the exact same thing, same UI for both

so it's new to me on ships 😅

[rocky kernel]

Yeah same, I'd seen it elsewhere but never noticed it on this ship until someone pointed it out to me. I think it was Jason but might have been one of the other speed runners I've been watching as well that I first noticed them using it.

[remote thunder]

quite the neat addition all around for sure, good to have been here at this hour 🙂

[rare furnace]

Huh, that’s handy!

I’ll try it out when I’m back at my desk.

[tough sluice]

This seemed like an appropriate end

[storm fiber]

where is the planet that I am supposed to return to in the 2nd act? I am in the system (I think) but cannot find it

[remote thunder]

fitting yeah

[signal lion]

Is that the distance to something you have tagged? Or is it driven by the selected mission?

[remote thunder]

the latter

[rocky kernel]

It is to the active mission or poi the mission is sending you to. In the case of that specific image it's to one of the locations during the starter tutorial for NMS

Tldr listen to bk. LOL

[remote thunder]

i forgot to reply 😅

perfectly fine answer, couldn't have explained it better myself

[atomic estuary]

I think that I still have the angler from the original Aquarius

[remote thunder]

same actually lol

[main wyvern]

What does the lost angler's rig do?

[atomic estuary]

Looks cool 😎

That's it

That's all

[main wyvern]

That's it?

Alr

[serene nacelle]

where the heck can I find the radioactive fish

im in the system where the second location is but my thing keeps yelling at me to warp to a water system to find one even though there is a radioactive planet here, and I can't even warp to water systems cause I need a better hyperdrive 😭

ah hah someone made a base nevermind

whoever made that you are a legend

[main wyvern]

Water systems ≠ blue systems

Blue systems are indium systems, water systems have water planets, and you don't need to have/not have the star be blue for that

[serene nacelle]

ya i meant cause they were out of range, i should have specified my bad

[main wyvern]

Then get more fuel?

[thin pewter]

I've completed the expedition and decided that the progression I made with this save file I created from an existing game is much further, will the save file be eventually converted back to normal like new expedition files would?

[main wyvern]

I doubt you were able to fully stand yourself from the galaxy map

[main wyvern]

Yes, but go back to the anomaly

[serene nacelle]

also how rare is a legendary fish cause my second cast on the first world was a legendary and I haven't seen once since

I got a Glass Angel

[thin pewter]

I am there. I could bring a fraction of my inventory back to the original file, but my problem is that I've got storage upgrades and S class ships and freighter. I don't suppose those upgrades could go back to the Primary save, right?

[young warren]

Well, this is an annoying quirk. had 5/7 pearls collected then it reset to 0/7.

unused upgrades if you have them stored

and you can replicate your current ship

[thin pewter]

Bringing it back to the primary file, yeah?
Also, I've never figured out a way to use exosuit upgrade modules without expeditions opening up that screen to actually apply them. How would I use those upgrades if I brought them with me?

[young warren]

?I seem to recall the ship you replicate back will have all installed tech, so load it up.

[young warren]

At any suit upgrade place if you have the upgrade modules in inventory you can use them for free.

[thin pewter]

All right, thanks.

[young warren]

Once you are back same console in anomoly lets you buy the ship and your multitool with nanites. no ship inventory will come over but the ship and it's installed tech does.

sadly no freighter

[thin pewter]

aw

Holy

Why has nobody told me about using save file to start expedition before

[blissful gust]

Well, this is not cool. I just started the expedition, and my ship is inside a crashed freighter

so... I can fix it, then find a navigation token, and call it to the pad...

[bitter anchor]

Oof

[uneven dagger]

Expedition over, kinda rushed through it but

[ashen shore]

Woah, just started! Not enough time 😅

[blissful gust]

oh duh, I can call it to a place

[bitter anchor]

I haven't even started yet, planning to this weekend

[uneven dagger]

Good luck!!

It's pretty chill, though I got mad at RNG a couple times

15 fish straight in a storm with maglure without a storm fish spawn

[bitter anchor]

SAME

The storm fish thing took me almost two hours the first time

[uneven dagger]

Oooof

[bitter anchor]

It is a nice chill expedition though

[ashen shore]

Rewards are those cosmetics right?

[bitter anchor]

Yes

And the fishing pole

[ashen shore]

Ah ok. Maybe a silly question but is it possible to not complete the expedition and still get a good number of the rewards? Or you gotta complete it 100%? Next 2 weeks are gonna be busy

[serene nacelle]

i don't understand how to complete the establish a base underwater thing..

cause I have a underwater base..

[ashen shore]

You probably got to place a base computer underwater then maybe build some base parts?

Oh...

[serene nacelle]

i put a computer and made rooms and everythin'

[ashen shore]

I haven't done this expedition but; what are the prompts asking you to do? Like if you go into your mission log

Sometimes in the mission log it tells you more extra info about what to do

[serene nacelle]

it says establish an underwater base

i'

will give it a little bit idk

see if it catches up

[ashen shore]

Did you try clicking on the mission in the expedition tab?

Sometimes it takes a click for it to acknowledge for me. Dunno why 🫤

[lethal spruce]

The underwater base has to be at a depth of at least 30u or greater, so maybe it's not in deep enough water?

[ashen shore]

That must be it!

[young warren]

Computer must be 30u or more down. base can be higher, but for it to register complete once you build all the stuff you need to swim back down to the base computer and it then marks you complete.
At least thats how it worked for me.

[serene nacelle]

Thank you all, i did figure it out. I was 50 U down but someone elses base was there and it just wasn't telling me that. i had to delete my base that I ALREADY had down, and swim super far away and rebuild, then it worked. unsure why it happened in the first place but at least its done now

[young warren]

Fins of thunder, is that any storm or do I need a specific type of storm?

[low jackal]

any storm

use Magpulse Lure during storm to increase your chance

[pliant ridge]

.😲

Wow, folks are finishing fast!

Question: I stopped doing that last expedition without completing and last save was on a planet. Now I went in thinking that I could still transfer my stuff in the anomaly and end but I am only back in the main save with no stuff. Is that the normal way - I needed to transfer before then end of the expedition? I see this too:

[low jackal]

you missed the window

no more transfer for you

[ashen shore]

Ikr, I haven't had time yet today lol

[long bone]

is the title "Child of Aquarius" obtainable? can't find a definitive answer

[young warren]

Lost anglers rig, if I want it I need to bring back the tech package yeah, or is it available for quicksilver?

[pliant ridge]

Okay. Thanks for response.

[cedar depot]

What is considered a "large" fish? I have caught 3 fish that say they are large, but none of them counted

[young warren]

I was using the round meatball bait and in an area of "deep" water. deep being more than 30u deep.

[solemn kiln]

Guys...any tips on findind irradiated planet with water? 😦

[open dagger]

I would first check at the space station you are near for player bases that say irradiated somehow in the name - and then you can jump back on or two stations until you hit one

[solemn kiln]

oh that's good idea... to check bases. Thanks!

[blazing fossil]

Colossal I believe is what you need

At 50u or deeper water they’re really common

[feral scaffold]

Go to Secret Fishing Spot IV (Rendezvous 4)

[worthy hatch]

Why did the very first fishing spot have to be on an extreme sentinel planet…? -.-

[pliant ridge]

Oh, good at least that I did get units/nanites/quicksilver although no items/materials/upgrades...🤷‍♀️

[rotund nimbus]

I have never finished an expedition so quickly before

[feral scaffold]

If you started the expedition via your main save (using the terminal on the anomoly) you need to transfer your items back to your main save using the terminal.

[pliant ridge]

I did start that way but didn't try to transfer until today and was already placed back in the main save without any items. But the terminus did say to end the old expedition to get started on the new one then it did the calculations shown above.

[solemn bane]

I remember finding a teeny tiny island to land on so the sentinels wouldn't harass me, but one spawned so I killed it and the others didn't show up because there wasn't enough space on the island

[feral scaffold]

Yes. The Liquidators expedition ended a few days ago

[pliant ridge]

Yeah. I had given up about 6 hours before it ended but was too tired to go to the anamoly.

[feral scaffold]

In which case you would lose anything you didn't transfer when the expedition ended.

[pliant ridge]

Right. But it appears that some of it was liquidated into units and nanites. So that's fine. 🙂

[feral scaffold]

"currency" is the only thing that's automatically transferred at the end of a expedition

Everything else you have to do manually

[pliant ridge]

Okay.

[slender sinew]

Anyone got recommendations on what to bring along for this expedition

[naive prism]

experience, i've played a few hours before

[wraith junco]

https://youtu.be/tm0xOeaCqVs?feature=shared

[wise meteor]

I always take a load of Oxygen because you can make so much other stuff from that. Then some ferrite dust and dihydrogen so you dont spend ages shooting rocks. Chromatic metal always comes in handy.... But you dont actually have to take anything

[rocky kernel]

Bringing a trade rocket is very handy

[pliant ridge]

.🙂 👍

[wraith junco]

Imo get some suit slots and trade rocket. So u can sell fish not leaving the fishing spot

[waxen mirage]

FPS drops to 5 when switching to other windows while DLSS is on. Any other solution besides restarting?

[pliant ridge]

Thanks.

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.

Be sure to play the mandatory music when you fish during a storm. It improves your drop chances.

[supple oyster]

Silly question, i've never played with any underwater base building before. For the milestone I need to build the water pool floor or whatever its called, how do I prop up the underwater base structure to do so?

[remote thunder]

the way i normally do it is i'll stack 2 large prefab rooms on top of each other, delete the bottom one, and go outside then snap the moon pool underneath the remaining large prefab

"large prefab" here including underwater parts, like the circular large room one

[supple oyster]

oooo you can do stuff like that huh?

thats awesome! thank you

[heady basin]

Moonwell base, one waterway entry, main underwater base, and then make sure you're 30u underwater

[supple oyster]

🫡 thank you!

Can you leave the planet that has your auto traps on them and they still function?

[wraith junco]

I build more than 1 of them so they would catch more in shorter time.

[remote thunder]

(3 per planet, drop and claim a base comp in their system)

[wraith junco]

3 per planet is kinda wierd limitation imo

[finite rover]

relying on rng to finish the expedition sucks

I think I caught 100-150 fish.

[finite rover]

regulations against overfishing. Big Government is everywhere.

[supple oyster]

Half of these fishers don't even have their licenses! :p

[finite rover]

The sentinels will deal with them.

[young warren]

I usually wedge it off an incline of drop one on the top of a underwater cliff and place one next to it jutting out. I feel dumb for not noticing I can stack like was suggested.

[crimson sundial]

what does the game mean by "large fish"? I caught three colossal sea creatures, and the milestone says 1/2

[young warren]

I've had counters bug out in this one.

[main drift]

hello guys, does the message from the angler need a specific bait or planet (like when the angling destination reached you should fish the message there) ?

or you can fish the message anywhere anybait?

[wraith junco]

It needs no bait

Empty hook

[main drift]

can i fish it on any planet?

[wraith junco]

U will need yo fish it on secret spot planets.

[main drift]

ohhh okay thanks!

thank god i havent left the planet yet

XD

[wraith junco]

Always check tasks before leaving. Maybe u can do few more before jumping to new system

[main drift]

gotcha thank u very much!

[sick niche]

does the skiff not move?

[wraith junco]

No. U can resummon it new spot. When u stand on it while resummoning it drifts very slowly

[crimson sundial]

so I just need to fish more?

[young warren]

Sadly.

[crimson sundial]

thanks

[young warren]

Lots of praying to RNGesus for this one.

[wanton kernel]

starter ship spawned under derelict freighter. help

[young warren]

you can summon it to elsewhere

[wanton kernel]

it says its damaged

[young warren]

yeah, you need to fix the components from your inventory. just the pulse engine and landing/takeoff

[wanton kernel]

nvm, i can fix it without entering it, i forgot. thx

[supple oyster]

do old boots have a propose ?

[wary siren]

Is there a trick to the automated traps? Mine say trap cycle in progress but it’s all empty

I set them up yesterday

[supple oyster]

Awe man! I finished the expedition. Kinda sad its over already lol.

Guess moving forward I should do these on an existing save to make the most out of the rewards huh?

TIL

[ruby chasm]

that's what i need to start doing 😭

the amount of nanites I have on a random save is insane

[remote thunder]

nope

well, immersion

[remote thunder]

auto traps should yield a fish a day at least, but if you stay in the system they're in it should yield more. that said, i do recommend having multiplayer disabled if you don't already and maybe build more traps

[wary siren]

Ya I just hung around them and they eventually caught fish, I really had to hang around them for it to work

[remote thunder]

yeah, something's not quite working as intended imo

if you share that opinion, please raise a bug report when possible

!hg

[unkempt kraken]

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

[wary siren]

When you end this exp will they give you the nanites for the fish? Or is it best to release everything before ending

[weak trench]

which bait to use for leg fish?

[ruby chasm]

one of the milestones gives a bait for legendary fish i think

[weak trench]

bionic lure?

[ruby chasm]

yes

i believe so

[weak trench]

i keep getting rare

[ruby chasm]

so what i did was i did the hidden milestone and it completed both that one and the legendary one

[weak trench]

which one is that?

[remote thunder]

you get bonus units for each fish caught

[ruby chasm]

it's under phase 5

it says you need to complete the milestone before it to see what it is

i forgot the name of it once you unlock it

[weak trench]

ok

[wary siren]

So release first if you would prefer nanites to unites?

[remote thunder]

yeah

[wary siren]

Kk cool

[remote thunder]

in !faq-expedition/"finishing an expedition"

[ruby chasm]

is food a good way to farm nanites bc of that one npc in anomaly?

[remote thunder]

well, it is, but it is also slow, since we need to present 1 food item at a time - it's also been in the game for quite a while. after the introduction of sus packets tech/arms, and them being sold for units or obtained for free, also add sentinel dropped salvaged glass and the large bonus zoology rewards+Helios @ anomaly.. and Cronus (the other npc in the anomaly) probably doesn't see much usage these days.

[weak trench]

u can build a runaway mould farm

[ruby chasm]

oh do the upgrades from salv glass sell for a lot of units?

[solemn kiln]

hey dudes, finding radioactive planet with water (for the two irradiated fishes mission) is killing me. I even tried finding other people bases on teleport terminals but no luck 😦 Any tips?

[remote thunder]

when sold to an upgrade module shop vendor or an exocraft technician (after their quest is complete, only possible in non-expedition) quite a few hundred nanites each, yeah! sus packets tech/arms can drop x-class modules, which can be worth up to 720 nanites each

[ruby chasm]

isn't there one at a rendezvous point?

[solemn kiln]

No 😦

I found two so far, but no water on them.

[ruby chasm]

have you gone to the next one to look?

[solemn kiln]

yes

[ruby chasm]

let me get on my save rq and see if i can find one for you

oh nvm i finished the expedition..

[remote thunder]

look for any planet with water with gamma root on resource list; apparently there's one in rendezvous 3 system

check your discoveries list; rdv3 is "Vunutu-Eami VI"

[solemn kiln]

okay I'll try

[remote thunder]

why gamma on resource list? because only irradiated biome planets, which is what the milestone truly wants, have gamma root on resource list

so regardless of whether a planet is "irradiated", or "nuclear", or any of the other possible synonyms for irradiated biome -- !faq-biomes in #bot-spam for more info... it will work for the milestone, as long as it has water

[solemn kiln]

r/n I am at 2nd randevous point, there's one planet with gamma root but no water on it

[remote thunder]

check rdv3 when you get there - if you have already, teleport back after double checking presence of suitable planet

[solemn kiln]

will do now

nope

gonna continue jumping then...

[remote thunder]

personally, if i don't find what i need in one system, i'll check again in the next rendezvous system, but i make double check sure that i didn't miss any planet on any of them. by the time i get to the last rdv system, if still no suitable targets, then i'll resort to obtain at least 1 <of whatever plant i need to locate e.g. gamma root -- minerals also work to a degree, e.g. uranium in this case), you can use catalog&guide to locate such a planet

[remote thunder]

you could for example get a bit of gamma root/uranium and ^

not guaranteed to find one with water - but at least you're getting hits on every warp

[weak trench]

what's lunker?

[ruby chasm]

lunker?

i don't think i've heard of that

[bitter anchor]

It's one of the legendary fish

[ruby chasm]

ahh

[weak trench]

i already caught one i dont know where

[bitter anchor]

IDK what biome they live in I caught one a long time ago

[solemn kiln]

ah yea, thanks

[ruby chasm]

chat i almost died on my permadeath 😭

[quaint urchin]

Almost = lived = good, right?

[ruby chasm]

i'm hunting sents and one of those small walkers almost killed me with that lock on laser

[ruby chasm]

yes yes

[solemn kiln]

Found one! Was just following exp path. I skipped a few systems and jumped stragiht to next rndv point. THat's why I didnt see this one

Thanks for advices!

[sour anchor]

is the expeditions cool ? i kinda forgot we had to do it

[weak trench]

i am unable to fish the last bottle

[ruby chasm]

that one took me a bit to catch

i js stayed on that planet and kept casting my line out until i finally caught it

[weak trench]

omg i just caught leg fish common bait

but still not got the bottle

[ruby chasm]

😭 🙏

[weak trench]

how to complete scales of fire?

[ruby chasm]

just fish with the milestone active

if that's where you reel in his legacy

[weak trench]

found another leg

lol

free shell fish means

i will need to sell a fish worth 300k?

[ruby chasm]

just multiple that add up

[wraith junco]

300k total.

There is no single fish worth 300k

[weak trench]

where to sell it?

[wraith junco]

At space station

Or gtt

[weak trench]

showing low demand

[toxic mortar]

Sell to ship captains.

[ruby chasm]

sentinel hunting has granted me nanites

[wraith junco]

Releaseing fish to water also gives nanites

[ruby chasm]

hmmm i'll try that once i get traps

[cedar depot]

Got it!

I believe not. I do believe standing in expeditions are seperate, based on the fact all words are reset during a expedition, I'd assume the same goes for standing

[slender sinew]

Alright thank you

[weary badge]

automated trap telling me 'must be constructed underwater'. I am underwater? have all resources for it, what am I missing?

no worries, sussed, it's a floater, not for sea bed doh!

[toxic mortar]

It actually needs to be just on the surface. It is a stupid message.

[wary siren]

Hmmm I closed out of the expedition when I finished as I didn’t see any community goals, was there one?

[sonic gate]

Hey where can I catch enormous fish?

[silver vessel]

Expedition complete! Glad I did this one. The gear is amazing. I loved seeing other people fishing with me at all the rendezvous points. Great sense of community

[tough sluice]

That was kinda cool

[long bone]

wait you cant start the artemis quest in an expedition? is it because i started the expedition from my main save?

[tough sluice]

Everyone on their ships landed on the water while they fished together

[silver vessel]

yes

A few skiffs here or there

[main wyvern]

The community milestones aren't for the expedition I think, pretty sure they are nexus missions

[sonic gate]

like I rlly don't know

[wary siren]

Perfect, I thought I’d missed somthing for a minute

[gilded orchid]

More chance and the bait you use than location

[weary badge]

agreed, I've just been Skiffing in the same spot, swapping out the baits and lures for the nocturnal, storm, legendary etc.

[silent knot]

deeper waters, too

[silk rain]

for this expedition does it make sense to wait until the end to quit the expedition?

I don't think there's community goals but not sure

[misty kite]

why do feeshes keep escaping every single time?

[long bone]

worth keeping in case you need quicksilver, can farm daily + weekend bonus @silk rain

[silk rain]

if youre on console

hold the button to reel in

i think on pc is the same

i lost a couple too before i figured

[misty kite]

ty, i am an idiot

[long bone]

anyone in expedition has access to an exotic planet with water? wouldnt mind a lift

[silk rain]

i can keep getting qs once im done with all the missions?

[long bone]

sure, as long as you dont finish the expedition at the terminal

[silk rain]

and how would i do that?

[remote thunder]

(to clarify, unless you meant mega exotic (aka red/green/blue biome planets, exotic aka weird biome planets, i.e. all planets that have gold on resource list, in the current build (and afaik, neither since their introduction) wont ever have water.)

[remote thunder]

simply don't interact with the expedition terminus to end+finish

[long bone]

mmh how do you fish haunted fish then? thought those were exotic exclusive

maybe i read wrong

[serene nacelle]

where do I get firey scales of the angler's legacy?

is it any planet of firey planet

[silk rain]

i believe any planets

but the last one should work fs

[serene nacelle]

okay ty

[silk rain]

use the legendary bait

bionic lure should be called

[silk rain]

no yeah I know I'm confused on how not ending the expedition would get me quicksilver

[remote thunder]

yes, imagined that could be the case; basically, you're looking for any planet with water, that doesn't have a plant resource on the resource list, and has either phosphorus (red star only), ammonia (green star only), or dioxite (blue star only). (note: the specified relation to specific star color systems is valid for norm type galaxies like Euclid, the one this expedition is in)

[remote thunder]

it would let you keep a "2nd save" open (because for that purpose, your expedition run is counted as a 2ndary save) and run the nexus weekend mission twice: one in expedition run, (then pause/options/return to primary) and another in your primary save

[long bone]

as well as daily qs missions

[remote thunder]

after you finish expedition ofc, that quicksilver would be merged back to primary, should you still have it

yeah, ofc

[silk rain]

oh yeah makes sense

so it's like a one time thing

[remote thunder]

that said -- remember that non-consumable quicksilver purchases are also unlocked account wide, so unless the goal is to buy a void egg in primary save, you can for sure use the quicksilver to unlock stuff in the exp run save itself

[silk rain]

no idea what a void egg is ahah

[remote thunder]

if i wanted to -- i could run the weekend mission, and dailies ofc, multiple times on the same account -- we can have up to 15 saves side by side

[long bone]

its good for how long the expedition lasts: just dont forget to complete/click finish at the Expedition Terminal BEFORE it ends or everything including qs wont be transfered to your main save

[silk rain]

so you mean like if i buy a cosmetic change for my jetpack i get it an all saves?

[silk rain]

bet

[remote thunder]

just have to claim it, for free ofc, in whatever other save under the same account (ofc, once that save has anomaly access)

[silk rain]

bet

thanks guys

[long bone]

np, i was happy when i found out you could do that because i have so much more cosmetic stuff to unlock

[silk rain]

and do you happen to know the best bait to catch larg fish?

is it using other fishes?

[remote thunder]

check this pinned post <#nms-expedition message>

[silk rain]

I've seen i get like a 15% bonus with B class and 40 with A class

[remote thunder]

remember to be fishing at at least 50u deep - i'd suggest trying to find a little deeper if possible.

[silk rain]

Fishy Slab: 56% size (certain cooked fish)

this will do the job

thx

[long bone]

by the way @remote thunder can you tell if a planet has water just with the list of ressources on it? (or is it just visually)

[remote thunder]

well, if the planet has gold (or rusted metal) in resource list, or is a moon - it won't ever have water. that said, discoveries main system view, showing the planets on the right side, can sometimes be pretty definitive about whether a planet has water or not. that said, remember to look at galaxy map, \\ Water tag below a system's name when highlighted

[long bone]

yep

[remote thunder]

other than those, just visually - can make use of photo mode+move the sun to quickly find out

[long bone]

true, good point

was hoping there was a way to use the scan from freighter and not have to physically fly there lol

[remote thunder]

discoveries tab in that case yeah

combining all the info

[serene nacelle]

Alright I give up, its not worth me fishing for hours and hours to get this last stupid legendary fish for a lame jetpack customization when I already have a cool one 😭

[long bone]

the jetpack is actually sweet ngl

[serene nacelle]

Not worth me wasting hours fishing

Considering my "Legendary bait" gave me 5 C class fish

I have the suit, Frick the jetpack

My jetpack is cool enough, I'd rather build my lego sets then fish any longer 😭

[bitter anchor]

Hey

I like building Legos

[serene nacelle]

Fellow lego person hello!

[bitter anchor]

Also rate my drip for the expedition

This is what I'm starting with

[serene nacelle]

Looks good!

[bitter anchor]

Hi fellow Lego guy

[serene nacelle]

I build Star Wars sets haha

[bitter anchor]

I have some star wars sets, been collecting some from the late 90's lately

Recently acquired this gem

[steady spire]

Are any of those angler's diaries worth saving from the expedition, the ones with coordinates?

[remote thunder]

nah, just the coordinates for the rdv systems, but i guess they're a memento

[steady spire]

Cool, I just didn't wanna leave behind anything important. I guess I could take screenshots lol

[steady spire]

I logged on today and dropped my pole in the water, and got that last fish on the first try with no bait. Are you sure you're on the right planet?

[serene nacelle]

Fishing spot V

ITs just rigged as hell

My brother got it instantly too

[steady spire]

Wow that's lame man, sorry your efforts are for nothing

[serene nacelle]

I spent an hour just fishing there

Actually an hour and a half

[steady spire]

Maybe log off completely and log back in, RNG reset may help or something I don't know

The backpack option is worth getting because it's the smallest backpack I believe and shows off more of your outfit, that's why I wanted it

[misty kite]

you know... its kind of relaxing just fishing beside fellow explorers

[serene nacelle]

Not when you fished for an hour and a half for nothin'..

[misty kite]

wdym?

[serene nacelle]

I fished for an hour and a half tryna get the last stupid legendary fish and haven't gotten it yet

[misty kite]

oh

[serene nacelle]

So I left the game and I don't think I'm gonna even finish the expedition

Cause I'm not wanting to waste more time fishing for literally nothing

[steady spire]

OK last question for you, did you make sure you were in very deep water? That's when I finally got mine because I had tried last night for 45 minutes went to bed woke up found a deep spot in the ocean and nailed it

[serene nacelle]

I was at 70 Units

[steady spire]

Well that's pretty deep, well I hope if you try again you get it lol you deserve it man

[serene nacelle]

I hope that would be deep enough 😭

[serene nacelle]

Thank you 🥹

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.

[toxic mortar]

This expedition is both the most chill and the most frustrating one I've done, due to the RNG.

[silk rain]

nah fr getting me mad asf

to ge the angles bottle I'm pretty sure you need to have the mission selected or it won't appear. Both me and my friend tried getting one for 45 mins and then had the idea to select that as main mission and we boht got one in seconds

[remote thunder]

well -- yes, you do need the right milestone selected for that one.

[silk rain]

it's not obvious as you're simply able to complete any of the others without having it selected

anyway

can the traps catch legendarys?

like if I'm looking for the last big guy does it makes sense to put traps down?

[finite rover]

Yes they can. Don't think it counts, though.

[remote thunder]

just use rarity bait e.g. <#nms-expedition message>

or mealworms/bionic lure

[muted wave]

For the Tales of Waves mission, I caught the message in a bottle, but My inventory was full so it got deleted and the milestone did not complete, what should i do?

[low jackal]

keep fishing

and make sure to clean your inventory

[muted wave]

So I am able to get the message again simply by fishing for it?

[low jackal]

should be as long as you are on the right planet

[long bone]

if anyone has access to a [REDACTED] /Foaming/Bubbling planets with water, hit me up

[strange edge]

so how rare are the planets that look like they have mechanical mushrooms?

because when i spawned in for the expedition thats what i saw

[low jackal]

mechanical mushrooms?

[strange edge]

let me find an image

[low jackal]

like these?

[strange edge]

no

[low jackal]

or these

[strange edge]

no

got it

[low jackal]

one of the exotic biome type

relative rare

[misty plinth]

These look more organic than mechanical to me, These planets are kind of rare.

[low jackal]

not very rare

[lusty slate]

That looks like a mega exotic

[strange edge]

i have 500+ hours in this game and until today i've only seen this planet type ONCE

[misty plinth]

If I were your scout master you would not be getting your explorers badge

[low jackal]

https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Biome_-_Exotic

[lusty slate]

Mega exotics aren't actually that rare. And they have very specific generated descriptions that alert you before you land.

[low jackal]

theres like a dozen types of exotic planet out there

normal to have a couple you never seen before

[strange edge]

i see

thanks for your help

[finite steeple]

do you mean the Glitch worlds?

like pillared or hexagonal or whatever?

[silver vessel]

I'm surprised I see nobody else using the aquarius jet pack and armor. It's awesome looking

[finite steeple]

personally i cant see them since i play in first person... so theres never really any point for me to use them

[ashen shore]

Once a fish is biting the bait, how do I pull it in? figured it out, but next question...

😕

Ok, it just keeps saying "no fish hooked" even though I followed the instructions...idk why

[low jackal]

you dont pull when it is just having a taste

[silk rain]

you have to wait till it actually pulls

the line goes straight and it becomes red

should stay down for a couple seconds so you'll defintely see it

[ashen shore]

Gotcha, thank you. I pulled when the line went...green? I didn't see it go red but um

Thanks for your help

[silk rain]

it goes kinda yellow when they're just tasting it

[remote thunder]

when we're to press&hold till catch, line is fully stretched and green, correct

hard to tell sometimes

the line being stretched is the deciding factor when color isn't any help

[ashen shore]

Umm, how to make the exoskiff move? Like can you pilot it?

[wary siren]

Can someone playing creative do an expedition

[bitter anchor]

Found this guy the first time in the anomaly

[ashen shore]

Any tips for finding an irradiated planet?

I've warped to a ton of systems and wasted a lot of warp fuel, still haven't found one...

[ocean gorge]

Any trick to getting the huge fish? I’m in water that’s a bit over 40u deep, using bait, and have caught fish labeled “large” but they haven’t counted toward the milestone.
So is there something else I need to do or is it just waiting for some specific weight to trigger?
There aren’t any other tips I can see in the log

[ocean gorge]

The fourth drop point is an irradiated planet

[ashen shore]

Gotcha, thanks

[misty plinth]

I feel this expedition redux is very "on the rails". Like we were meant (sort of felt forced) to stay in small area of space to complete it.

[finite steeple]

are they ever going to redo polestar?

i uhh... need something from it that isnt a reward for some stupid reason.

[misty plinth]

No way for us to know. They don't often share thoughts on things like that until they are ready to do it.

[finite steeple]

it really annoys me that the best thing on that expedition isnt a reward. so you cant get it even if you have completed it.

[lethal spruce]

what non-reward item are you referring to from Polestar?

[finite steeple]

the Singularity Engine.

[lethal spruce]

ahh

[finite steeple]

freighter black hole warp whenever you feel like it.

[main wyvern]

They could bring it back as guaranteed cargo in an exp ship

Just sayin'

(Has never happened)

[ashen shore]

How to get salt? I've tried two methods (both failed)

• Find at space stations
• Finding on planets as a resource

[low jackal]

try looking in the ocean

most underwater rocks has it

[ashen shore]

Thanks, got it...I was searching on land 🤦‍♀️ 😆

[misty plinth]

@ashen shore Some planets do have it as a resource deposit.

[ashen shore]

Umm, how to identify a planet whic is irradiated? The mission log says there is one in the current system but none of them have that status? 😕

[low jackal]

https://imgur.com/BPe30aV

they can have different names

or simply identify them by the resource list

irradiated biome always has gamma weed

[ashen shore]

Oh thanks

I thought they were called "irradiated" lol

[ocean gorge]

Your fourth drop location is an irradiated planet

[ashen shore]

Thanks to you both

[ocean gorge]

This planet will be your fourth drop location, it’s listed in the pins
I was worrying about this one too, but the expedition systems cover the planet types (glad I didn’t hunt for an irradiated system😅)

[main wyvern]

Got more o' these?

[low jackal]

#bot-spam message

click the links

[ashen shore]

Is there something special I need to do to get the uncommon fish? For irradiated?

I've fished on an irradiated planet for a while now

Still nothing

[misty plinth]

Are you using bait (or even better bait?)

Is the milestone selected?

[ashen shore]

Yup, I'm using bait, but am not sure which bait is good

[blissful gust]

I'm confused here. I'm very clearly under water, but I can't build an automated trap. It says it must be built underwater.

[misty plinth]

I pretty much used the mealworms - might have taken a bit longer but I was too lazy to make anything more complicated.

[ashen shore]

Ok phew thanks, I got one. Guess it was just RNG

[misty plinth]

They actually go just on top of the water surface.

You can stand on something ( say your aqua-jet equipped starship) just above the surface of the water and place them.

[blissful gust]

That's annoying

Is the timer on that active-in-game, or real time?

[misty plinth]

FAIK the "time til X happens" messages are real time

[ashen shore]

How do I tell what is a "stormy water" planet? 😕

Is rainy planet considered one?

[misty plinth]

@ashen shore if you have scanned planets you can look at weather traits to check for storm and the type.

I find it easier though to look at the planet overview and check for active stellar metals - those always have extreme storms of some sort.

[ashen shore]

The one I'm on has parrafinium

I'm not sure what you mean by stellar metals...

[low jackal]

Fins of Thunder milestone?

[ashen shore]

That's the one!

[low jackal]

you just have to catch a fish that only appears during storm
Most planet has storm

[ashen shore]

Oh ok

[misty plinth]

Activated Cadmium, Copper, Emeril and Indium.

[ashen shore]

Ahh yep just as you said that thanks

[low jackal]

craft megpulse bait
wait for storm
fish and wish you catch one before storm ends

[ashen shore]

Completely rng right?

My thermal protection ran out :(

[misty plinth]

@ashen shore You have the aqua-jets installed on your ship? Land on deep water with it and fish from off of it. You can hop back in as needed to restore your protection levels.

[ashen shore]

Ok thanks...I did not catch any the first time

Now on the noctural fish one but also no luck there 😆

Ok I got the noctural fish, but is there any specific bait I need to use for the storm one?

[low jackal]

megpulse for increased chance for storm fish

you can also build a shelter to fish safely during storm

[misty plinth]

Or find a storm base someone else built on the teleport to list.

[low jackal]

ye

[ashen shore]

Oh...ok I see

I try not to go to other people's bases 😬

[misty plinth]

Why? People wouldn't upload them if they didn't want you to visit.

[main wyvern]

Unless that's for more difficulty towards yourself- you are welcomed into any you can join!

[ashen shore]

Oh ok fair enough

Btw thank you so much I got that mission done - was very rng-y

[main wyvern]

People make whole bases for specific resources for you to take

[ashen shore]

Thanks!

For the large fish mission, how deep should I fish? I'm going with >40u

[misty plinth]

I tried to exceed 50u when and wherever I could. Just felt like the chances were better to me.

[ashen shore]

Got it, thanks. Whenever I ask a question the mission just completes itself. Just noticed (jk) 🤣

[ocean gorge]

I noticed even though it said “large” fish in the right lower corner for the enormous fish milestone, only “colossal” fish counted
I also didn’t have much luck until I started fishing in around >50u deep water

[indigo falcon]

size-increasing bait can help with that, and it is possible to catch colossal fish even in shallow water, but it is a lot less likely. the skiff can be useful for this, or you can land your ship (if it's got aquatic landing gear) somewhere away from land and fish standing on top of it.

[worthy hatch]

How do I maximize my chances of catching a foreign object?

Aka, how to I maximize my chances of catching something that is "not a fish"?

[wraith junco]

Empty hook

[worthy hatch]

That's it?

This whole freaking time, I could've just taken the bait off?

[low jackal]

bait increase chance of good fish
if you want non-fish just fish without bait

[naive crypt]

There is a 6-10 second timer before your bait is consumed, you can reel in before that for no consequence

Remember: The holo-fish that circle your bobber reflect the size of the fish you will catch, if you see 2 small and 1 medium sized holo-fish, reel out immediately

[neon igloo]

is there a storm only bait?

[wraith junco]

Rise storm fish chance bait yes. Only storm fish bait . No

[neon igloo]

thank you

[weary badge]

Magpulse Lure

[fringe sierra]

Here u go

[neon igloo]

so do is it have to be an extreme storm to work?

[unreal gale]

Anyone can tell me the planet's name for the second secret spot?

[wraith junco]

Any storm will work

[slender sinew]

Are portal glyphs unlocked in this expedition?

[misty plinth]

Doesn't mean you can't find and collect them though.

[lapis valve]

Does this expedition have community goals like the previous one? Or is it safe to conclude it?

[wraith junco]

This exp does not have optional milestones.

[lapis valve]

Ty 🙂 I was unsure because of this homepage: https://community-mission.nmscd.com/

[wraith junco]

List of milestones is in #nms-expedition pins for every exp when it goes live.

[lapis valve]

Sweet, tysm! 🙂

[slender sinew]

That means having to go space stations and finding travellers to interact and get their grave glyphs

Did that during the omega expedition redux thinking it would carry over

Imagine My surprise

Had to finish the Artemis storyline

thx

[keen zephyr]

The irradiated planet in RV2 system, is there no water here at all? or am I just supremely unlucky??

[strange edge]

so is the angler's legacy a fish?

[remote thunder]

remember that you can move the sun in photo mode - might have to wait for a possible storm to end (storms apply a grey cloud overlay on planets, visible from space) - then it should be easy to identify whether it has water or not. could also try to investigate further by looking at your Discoveries tab

[remote thunder]

indeed

just fish, milestone selected, no bait required

[strange edge]

can i put bionic bait to increase my chances of finding it?

[remote thunder]

it's a milestone thing, so afaik rarity bait does not affect it

took me like 5 tries or something

[keen zephyr]

4th one I tried I got it

and always fun to warp to an unexplored system

[strange edge]

i got it

[tidal pollen]

did my starship spawn inside this crashed freighter? 😨

oh and we begin the expedition with it damaged so I can't summon it out

[quaint urchin]

Try to get close enough to repair it and then you can summon it away from there.

Also, this has been happening a lot and HG needs to fix it. Please report it:

!hg

[unkempt kraken]

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

[tidal pollen]

yeah, the first expedition mission triggered when I climbed more so I should be able too

[tidal pollen]

🫡 gonna do it, thanks for the reminder

[blissful gust]

all I'm missing the hot fish. Where do I find a scorched planet that has water?

[tidal pollen]

Rescued it! time to fish 🥹

[half ermine]

where do the anglers diaries take you

[remote thunder]

those have the glyphs of each rendezvous system

[half ermine]

ohhhh

so basically if i go out of my way to get all the glyphs

i can go to somewhere that i already couldve gone to

[remote thunder]

yeah, in this case, yeah, it was only really the rendezvous system addresses

[half ermine]

guess its for lore reassons

[remote thunder]

yeah

[gleaming wind]

If i take on a freighter during the expedition, when it ends does it give me an option to replace my main save freighter, or is it done automatically? Dont wanna replace my main save freighter.

[remote thunder]

when it ends does it give me an option to replace my main save freighter, or is it done automatically?
neither; exp run freighter isn't merged with primary in any circumstance

[gleaming wind]

Ok good. Thx

[sly sedge]

I'm having a hell of a time getting a new "message from the Angler." Is there some trick that I'm missing?

Nevermind, got one.

[signal bear]

Wow, was not expecting that. So what did you all end up doing with ||The Angler||

[half ermine]

why are there two of these now

[finite grove]

some systems even have 3 😛

[half ermine]

what are they

[finite grove]

as far as i know and seen, just suns, and can affect the color scheme of the ships that spawn in the system, don't know of any other pros or cons for it

[half ermine]

ah

okay cool

i thought maybe it was some weird physics thing with the centre of the galaxy lol

[finite grove]

it may be lol that or the proximity of other types of stars, haha 😄

[half ermine]

yeah its most likely that i'd guess
