guardian

So I play ED a fair amount, and I'm trying to do so without "cheating" (e.g. without resorting to the various online utilities) I'm currently exploring Guardian sites - which I can do via the Galaxy Map filtering for Guardian locations. But I confess I had to google what I was supposed to do...

Yet again i went out to my favourite, no longer existant (😭) race of people (or rather their ruins and beacons) and noticed something. On the Beacons you find some kind of Pictures running in an endless cycle. They change when you activate the Beacon. Knowing the Devs, they usually dont put...

I played “Elite” for over 600 hours and I recognized some small "problems" or not completely covered things. They are small but still annoying. That is why I did make a list of these things. Together with some CMDRs: (I don’t hate the game or Frontier , I really like the game, but I just wanted...

Has something changed recently with this and the Guardian Module Reinforcement where you can no longer change their power priority? I know I'm a little late to party on all of the guardian modules but is there a reason why the FSD Booster can be powered on/off and have a priority set but the...

Apologies, this might be a long one. Adv. Multicannons After a fight in an AX conflict zone to test out four of the new multicannons (2x overcharged, 2x sturdy mount - great against scouts, barely registered against an interceptor), and taking a caustic missile in the process, I did what any...

Greetings Commanders! I just fully A-rated my Conda and, as the title suggests, I am wondering what I should go into first - engineering or Guardian technology? I don't mind some grinding. Which should I do first? Which requires more time? Which is most effective? Sorry if this was posted...

So I finally decided to try my hand at Thargoid combat. I've built the biggest tank I could, watched every tutorial video and went for it. After a while I realized I was killing Cyclops quickier than most videos. I was pretty proud of myself, so I tried to find which is the speedrun record for...

... to be able to figure this kind'a stuff out. Now, I've been aware of Technology Brokers since the day of their creation when they all magically appeared (can you say witchspace and parallel universe in one breath). I even visited one on day 1 of their creation; a human tech one. After...

Just boarded my ship from synuefe NL-N C23-4 B 3 and I have everything I need for a guardian fsd booster. It was great. The only thing I didn’t like about it was that the sentinenels weren’t that challenging. This was probably the second or third time I’ve ever driven an srv, the only time I’ve...

Just got back from gnosis and upgraded from a DBX to an AspX and started engineering my fsd. I want to go get a guardian fsd booster but when it comes to all that stuff I’m lost. I have the wikia app for elite dangerous but that doesn’t tell me what materials I need or how to get them. So what...

Ship "review" HERE! So what do you guys think of these things?

Please, please, please....??? With a cherry on top! I've currently got about 150 "Alpha" data obolisk thingies, and 12 Epsilon. But I need what 26 * 3 for all the guardian fighter IIRC. It's taking ages to collect, so a guardian data broker would be lovely Cheers, NSR2

We are told by Fdev, that these areas are reserved for future content, however in the history of the game, I am unaware of a single permit locked region becoming unlocked for any reason. Fdev delivered the all the Guardian and Thargoid content we have seen thus far into regions that were not...

Something I have enjoyed since I first picked up the game about a year ago, is driving around in the SRV. Just navigating the surface of a planet-or I'm the process of looking for something specific. Personally, I would like to see some customization to the SRV, these being small upgrades...

I'm sleep deprived and at work, so feel free to take what I say and change it. But, we all know the thargoids are moving into human territory pretty fast. They are less than 100 light years from sol. And unless the federal capital ships undergo a MAJOR refit, theres not much the federal navy is...

Idk about y’all, but I smell guardian hybrid ships. Don’t know the link to the galnet news website but I just read it in the galnet.

Note: I've written a guide for Guardian Module Blueprints here; Guardian Weapon blueprints here. Greetings, Commander! Let's talk about the Guardian Vessel Blueprints (now called Guardian Vessel Blueprint Segments). Perhaps you're interested in the XG7 Trident, with its plasma repeaters, or...

One issue that has come up with the advent of Guardian weapons is that they easily outclass all human AX weapons, making these quite redundant. With this in mind, I would like to suggest the following 4 easy changes to make human AX weapons more viable as an alternative to Guardian weapons:-...

Just a small thing that could help explorers as well as make the Galaxy feel more alive to everyone. As you enter a human inhabited system COVAS will tell you what state the system is in (eg. Economic boom detected, civil war in progress). For mysterious things like thargoid sites, guardian...

I'm asking this because guardian tech is damn interesting and looks really fancy, but totally fails in any way against human ships. Let's take the gauss cannon for example: Judging by the lore about thargoid hull and how meta-alloys work, it's supposed to deal therman damage to it, because...

Here is my quick all in one Guide to Guardian-Fighters: Step 1: Take an Exploration Ship, put a Beam-Weapon on it. (Other Weapons might also work, personally I used my Ship-Launched-Fighter to charge) - I recommend you also put as many Point-Defense-Turrets on it as you can fit. Step 2: Fly to...

So even with leaving, changing groups, etc, the pillars that you need to shoot no longer pop up. I was only able to "solve" it 4 times. Is this normal? Because the thought of going to a different site for 4 goes is....scary. On a side note, does each scan give a random blueprint?

GUARDIAN SENTINEL WRECKAGE COMPONENTS They simply do not drop. It's a G1 material. [where is it] I'm wondering why this has not been amended. It's ruining the experience of trying to experiment with Guardian technology and move my game play toward the Thargoid story line. Surely this could get...

I thay done multiple thousand light year trips across multiple new sites. I have spent hours driving around and hours flying around (yes you can detect the guardian items flying low and slow in a fighter) and found any number of caskets, urns and relics but no orbs. I read in these forums that...

I was trying some build with Guardian FSD Booster on Coriolis and realized that it makes a heavy combat Corvette with 26.21 LY jump range and 105.19 LY total range. Is it really possible? I mean, is it possible to remove vette's only drawback and make a dream ship with only one module? :O Build...

Here's a Guardian fitted Krait Mk. II. Thinking to hunt some bugs. No problem so far with scouts. Plasma are large but Coriolis still don't heve them in the list. Also power distributor is the hightest guardian one but do not save it.. Any suggestion or constructive criticism is welcome...

I unlocked a whole bunch of Guardian stuff and went fighting a Thargoid for the first time, solo, in a krait, with shard cannons... one rebuy and one retreat later, i finally managed to crack a Cyclops by myself!!! ...but at 3% hull, it definitely could have gone better. Engineered...

Great stepping stones between base module and engineered. Also, sometimes they are great for veteran CMDRs who just want to fly a new ship (for a testdrive and such) and have some benefits with their unlocked modules without going through the whole Engineering process or just did not bother...

The biggest problem with the guardian weapons is that outside of the gauss cannon, they are all pretty meh in both normal and AX combat. In AX combat, these weapons really fail to perform because, due to the other weapons' lack of uniqueness and issues with them, the gauss cannon is just plain...

I'm thinking about unlocking these, for xeno combat. I don't want to bother unlocking multiple engineers, to get normal hull reinforcement, although I know they're superior and more versatile. Are the guardian ones any good? Are there stats available for them? Cheers.

I did some research into the Guardian obelisks online, but could not find what I was looking for. So I did my own investigation. For those who are wondering: All Ancient Ruins-sites and Guardian Structure-sites have active obelisks. These require the one, or two objects the obelisk depicts to...

I would like to see the option to make part payment to a chosen technology broker to unlock modules rather than having to wait until all materials are gathered. The system used to unlock engineers would be ideal. The only issue I would see would be having to record the data for one particular...

Hi guys, returning starside after a break and in need of guardian data for the impending Q2 update. Can anyone confirm the current situation with data obelisks? Does one require the correct combination of artifacts to retrieve pattern data, or are you still able to get it just by scanning? Any...

Tech Broker modules and weapons are borderline useless, often even compared to their stock normal equivalents. Let's look at some examples:- 1. Plasma Charger: only come in one size (medium), do less damage than a similarly sized plasma accelerator and needs to be charged up 2. Gauss cannons...
