Guide / Tutorial How to fill all of your Raw Materials bins using Crystalline Shards.

Ok, filled up Polonium on C1 and for the Heck of it went to the next Geo Site to have a look, very very rich site with Niobium, Chromium and basics like sulphur, manganese etc... richest site I saw so far, just drive and mostly I do not even need the turret, the stuff is plenty there. NICE! :)
 
All,
So I put this spreadsheet together for everyone. It's editable by everyone, if you put something new it, make it obvious so I can update my own 'offline' list.
Enjoy and Fly Safe o7.

Most of the data is available elsewhere, but the one thing that wasn't available was the materials at each site, this is here.

You can put the co-ordinates of the system you are in, in cell D2 (From EDSM), and then you can sort the list on Cell J4(a-z). You will then see the closest ones to your location.

Couldn't edit the sheet - so here's my (somewhat off the beaten path) entries.
https://forums.frontier.co.uk/threa...ng-project-expedition-hub.116450/post-8183210 for the first couple - Polonium and Yttrium shards in the same system, mapping data should be available on EDSM
and
Thuechoo OZ-M d8-53 B 3 b, didn't land, EDD log lists Cadmium/Niobium/Ruthenium as high grade mats, so it's probably Ruthenium

Would you mind trying again please, I've updated the link in post #104, thanks
 
Visted HIP 36601 to stock up and I have encountered an issue where approximately 1/4 of the targets produce trilobal black crystals that can only be collected by catching them in flight before they hit the ground and disappear below the surface.

https://issues.frontierstore.net/issue-detail/2367 has been marked invalid and a duplicate of https://issues.frontierstore.net/issue-detail/2139 (updated and voted)

To my mind 2367 better describes my experience but FD hunh.

Again?
This was happening on XBox and it appeared initially after the 2019 April Patch.
It was corrected in 2019 September Patch, broken again in one of the corrective updates, then fixed again in (iirc) 2019 September Patch Update 3
 
Smh, not skilled enough to catch every single one in flight? Basically deserve the time wasted tbh, come back when you're a real epic gamer.

I did well enough thank you.

Anyway what differentiates a "real epic gamer" from a run of the mill one and why should I care ?
 
Guys, how do you mention a person here for him to get a ping?

Fancher Enterprise | 12 G. Canis Minoris
Thats the closest RAW material trader to Outotz LS-K d8-3
The one that's mentioned in the guide is in Repair state and doesn't have Material Trader atm.
Don't thank me, pls tell the OP to add this to the guide.

Well... one more jump after you just jumped 1500ly, it doesn't really matter.

More annoying for me was the bug i had on my alt: think 4 out of those 6 materials were first discoveries on the Crystalline Shards bodies.
And first discovery for a top tier raw material will give you a bin of 100 maxim (bug). You have to relog to get the normal 150 bin capacity.
I had to get back to the first Planed to fill up from 100 to 150 when i did my first trip there on alt account
 
Fastest "round trip" is to self-destruct. If you have bad memory, you will forget the episode and save 30 mins or more, by which time you could have visited the material trader and back to the site. Unfortunately, once you engineered your ships, it's only for synthesis. Wish more things could be built with material, like crafting rare gear or more experimental things, even if largely cosmetic.
