    Finally got my first Diamondback Destroyer

    Posted: 09 May 2020 04:56 AM PDT

    After days of grinding to fully engineer my ship and unlock the guardian fsd booster I'm off to Beagle Point for the first time! My ship 'Queen of Sheba' has 62.55 LY jump range. Wish me luck!

    PSA: 2020 Farming engineering materials, a compiled guide.

    Posted: 09 May 2020 06:29 AM PDT

    I've annotated this video from Hawkes Gaming, in a handy little text format, this is the work of him and others, and I take no credit for the work except as to turn it into text. I've written this as if you're a complete noob, don't think of it as being condescending please. :D

    ​

    Outfit a ship with big cargo, and a collector limpet or two. You only need the cargo space to fill with limpets, nothing else.

    Trading down – means to use the T4 and T5 mats you acquire to get lots of the lower rarity materials you need without having to farm them. If a material isn't listed here, you're to trade down for it using materials listed here from one of the same 3 types, manufactured, encoded or raw. You do this by going to https://inara.cz/galaxy-nearest/25/578/ and looking for the nearest Material Trader of the type you are currently farming.

    ​

    Manufactured

    ​

    • Fly to each system type you're farming.
    • Goto nav beacon, drop out of supercruise
    • Scan nav beacon
    • Re enter supercruise, head to the high grade emission signal source. You want at least 25 minutes remaining on the source.
    • Exit supercruise at the source. There will be between 3-6 targets, each providing 3 of a particular material.
    • Open cargo bay.
    • Release collector limpets.
    • When complete, EXIT game completely, not log off to main menu.
    • Re-enter game, and back into same mode you just left (open, private, solo).
    • Enter supercruise and stop immediately (speed 0 as soon as you see the countdown to enter supercruise, do not exit supercruise)
    • Open nav panel, there will be an undiscovered signal source right behind you.
    • Head to signal source, it's the same one you left, but restocked with targets to collect.
    • Rinse and repeat until the timer runs out on the signal source, or you have hit the limit of the amount you can carry.

    To find the system type:

    https://eddb.io/system

    Core Dynamics Composites and Proprietary Composites – Federation, high population, state none.

    Military Grade Alloys – Any system, high population, state war/civil war.

    Imperial Shielding - Empire, high pop, state none/election.

    Proto Heat Radiators – Independant, high pop, state boom.

    Pharmaceutical Isolators – Any system, any population, state outbreak.

    Improvised Components - Independant, any population, state civil unrest.

    Proto Light Alloys and Proto Radiolic Alloys – Independant or Alliance, high population, state boom.

    ​

    Encoded

    You will need a SRV hangar and a SRV for this.

    Trade down the following first!!!: Modified consumer firmware, cracked industrial firmware, atypical encryption archives, adaptive encryptors capture (as you will get lots during this)

    HIP 12099 – 1B

    Surface scan using DSS.

    Goto Jameson Crash site.

    Put SRV between all 4 comms beacons.

    Scan all 4, begin log farming by logging off to main menu then back on, scanning again, log off, back on etc.

    If you take a small ship, you can land at the trading station nearby first, then blow yourself up when full of the T4 and T5 mats to end up back at the station to trade down quickly.

    Modified Embedded Firmware – passenger mission reward

    ​

    Raw

    Method 1:

    Koli Discii – C6A

    DSS the planet.

    Goto Crashed Ship.

    Farm mats at the crashed anaconda, Antimony, Ruthenium, Tellurium, Tungsten, Zirconium. Shoot the cargo racks to get up to 2 different items.

    Relog farm.

    Method 2:

    Goto HIP 36601 (1500ly from the bubble)

    Planet C1A

    DSS, land at biological site 5.

    All crystalline clusters will be Polonium.

    ​

    Planet C1D

    DSS, land at biological site 3.

    All crystalline clusters will be Ruthenium.

    ​

    Planet C3D

    DSS, land at biological site 5.

    All crystalline clusters will be Tellurium.

    ​

    Planet C5A

    DSS, land at biological site 10.

    All crystalline clusters will be Technetium.

    ​

    Goto Outotz LS-K D8-3

    Planet B5A

    DSS, land at biological site 15.

    All crystalline clusters will be Yttrium.

    ​

    Planet B5C

    DSS, land at biological site 3.

    All crystalline clusters will be Antimony.

    ​

    Goto LHS 417

    Planet 9EA

    DSS, land at geological site

    All clusters will be Selenium.

    Amazes me how even on a random insignificant planet there can still be something going on.

    On a lark I decided to engineer my Vulture. This may be my new favorite combat ship. The FDL and Mamba are great, but I feel like I can actually dogfight in a Vulture.

    HELP WANTED : Terrorism on the shores of Colonia (interview video)

    Posted: 09 May 2020 09:26 AM PDT

    After FDEV community manager Ed Lewis abandoned the Elite Galaxy, the Dubbuennel system in Colonia was left to rot by the Ed Lewis fan group ED's 38. In the interview linked below, they confess to prioritizing their greed and to working with their allies Hutton Trucker trade federation to spread their consumer merchandise (mugs) to every station in the bubble while their Dubbuennel citizens suffered in Civil Unrest.

    Luckily Nu Simbad (Colonia's only Prison Colony faction) moved into the Dubbuennel system to restore order to the now defunct biscuit factory of Dunker's Rest. Nu Simbad pilots patrol the now Hazardous Extraction sites around Dubbuennel everyday to ensure any rebel scum are brought to justice and detained in Far Tauri's neighboring Chaydar Correctional Facility.

    However, i'm sad to report that both the tea-sipping, biscuit dunking terrorists of ED's 38 AND Hutton Truckers are back and will stop at nothing to reclaim their dominance over the citizens they once left for dead months ago and are using mass murder to accomplish this goal. (See Evidence below)

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Help restore order to Colonia by :

    • Trading profitably to/from Dunker's Rest in Dubbuennel
    • Completing Nu Simbad INF+ missions out of Dubbuennel
    • Selling Exploration data at Dunker's Rest in Dubbuennel
    • Killing WANTED ships in the Hazardous Resources Extraction sites of Dubbuennel and redeeming bounties as Dunker's Rest

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Evidence (Level of bounty only attainable by mass murder) : https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/280113383284670465/708710532965990440/unknown.png
