INFO and THANKS
Thanks : Cmdr masCh KisieL & ALL at CANONN ( Maps, live Obelisk locations & Combination for each live Obelisk)
Guide(Scan combinations)/Overlay by me.
Mission Reward : 201 Million Credits
Scans : 101
Time : From 5.5 Hours upwards
Guide(Scan combinations)/Overlay by me.
Mission Reward : 201 Million Credits

Time : From 5.5 Hours upwards
DESCRIPTION
The idea of this mission is to go to different Ancient Ruin sites and scan the obelisks, to gain knowledge of the Guardians (culture,language,technology etc).
Scanning is done using your SRV, whilst carrying one or 2 Ancient Artifacts . These Artifacts can also be found in the Ruins.
(6 Artifacts : Casket, Orb, Relic which has to be shot off its pedestal,Tablet, Totem & Urn)
The hardest part of this mission was to find the Ruins, see which Obelisks were "Live" and figure out which combinations of Artifacts will unlock the secrets of the Guardians,hence giving you a successful scan. The credit for finding and figuring out the above goes to CANONN and their brilliant player base !!!
The Guide itself was just hugely time consuming, and believe it or not, I did for myself(as I have repeated this mission many times)

NOTES & TIPS
- Bonus : Trade Rank increases on handing this mission in.
- Use any ship that makes you happy, my advice ? DBX(cheap,everyone can afford it,fits snugly everywhere)
- Make Bookmarks on Galaxy map if repeating this mission
- Some planets have more than one Ruin,use Bearing Finder(LINKS section) to make life easier
- Sometimes after a scan you are given a connection error and thrown in to the main menu(being fixed for 2.3.10)
- Follow my route, or use the database links and pave your own way
- Tip : Route 1 : Do the 1st 3 maps then hand mission in, that's 44M Cr in just over 2 hours(you don't have to do all 101 scans)
[*]WARNING : ANCIENT ARTIFACTS are CARGO, you can be INTERDICTED on the way back to the bubble !!!
[*]Tip : Dump your Artifacts before leaving last Ruin,not only you increase your range on the way home, you won't get interdicted!
- Clear your DATA,as it gets filled up with "Pattern....." Data after every scan
By "Clear your DATA" I only mean the ones starting with "PATTERN......" , not any other precious data !!!!!! - If you die, your progress is SAFE. You will however lose your artifacts !
- Always compare your current REWARD in the TRANSACTIONS tab to how many scans you have done(in case you make a mistake)
- If you do ALL 101 scans, you get a 100 Million Credit bonus
- I mostly use an Asp Explorer, but I now think I prefer using my DBX for this mission (smaller means turret activates closer to ship,also less hassle if landing on a bump)
- Tip : Landing positions on maps are for medium and small ships,mainly optimised for the DBX,bigger ships might not fit, or be too close to Obelisks to activate turret
[*]Tip : Do NOT dismiss ship !!!!!! Ever !!!!!! If you do,when you want it back, you have to go at least 2km from Ruin to be able to recall it. - Tip : Do the first 3 sites(all on same planet) then take a break. You have now done nearly half the mission(43.5%) !
- Tip : Don't save notifications if you don't want to. I have a link to the full lore in the LINKS spoiler
- Tip : If you decide to do this mission more than once, print out the maps and make your own notes on each,trust me it makes life easier
[*]Tip : When counting Obelisks in a group to get to the correct one for scanning, the broken ones also count,as they have same symbol in maps as the whole ones
PREPARATION
1) Get a Medium sized ship with good range, above 30 LYs(to lessen the tedium,lesser range is still ok)
Note : Large ships are OK too, just they are too big for parts of the Ruins (but OK to take)
2) Put on it a Fuel Scoop, SRV, 12t Cargo space needed(11 really , as you only need one relic), Adv. Discovery Scanner(Detailed scanner optional)
3) Get 3 Sulphur & 3 Phosphorus (SRV refueling) , even 1 of each should do as I usually get away without refueling,only just mind.
4) Head over to MEENE , FELICE DOCK
5) When you dock there, you should automatically get the mission. Check TRANSACTIONS tab.
6) Head over to SYNUEFE TP-F B44-0 CD1 and open the ANCIENT ARTIFACT LOCATIONS map(in MAPS/GUIDE section) and pick up 2 of EACH Artifact. You should have 2 Caskets, 2 Orbs, 2 Relics which has to be shot off its pedestal,2 Tablets, 2 Totems & 2 Urns.
NOTE : ONLY 1 RELIC NEEDED(but they are so easy to find), and 11t cargo space
p.s. Each of the 15 sites I will be sending you to also has all these Artifacts.
7) Now we're ready to Scan this 1st site

7) Now we're ready to Scan this 1st site
GUIDE VERSION 1.1
(Specific examples/map references/# of pages, in this section, refer to ROUTE 1)
1) Print or open Page 1 map on a spare screen(also print the blank missions sheet, if you wish to tick off each item as you scan it)
2) Go to the System, Planet & location on that map.(We are there already )
3) Optional : park up on the arrow,this gives a point of reference(or go to your own area that you are more comfy with)
4) Leave ship LIGHTS ON(again gives you a good reference,especially when under your ship to quickly figure out front/back)
5) Exit in SRV
6) Load SRV with the required Artifact(s). If we take Page 1 as an example, 1st item is C15(ToTo on the map). That means put 2 Totems in your SRV and head to the location of the Obelisk.
6a) If you're having trouble locating the Obelisk, go up in the air with your SRV. You'll be surprised how much more you can see !
7) When at the correct Obelisk, face it(not too close), select it, then Scan. If you're successful you'll get notification(if no notification which sometimes happens when it's delayed, then check Transactions tab to see how much your current reward is : each scan=1 Million Cr)
8) If the item you just did had an asterix * after it, it means you already have the correct items in your SRV for the next scan, hence saving time by not having to go back to your ship.
9) Go back to ship, look at item 2 (in our case 2 C16, ToCa* on map) means put a Totem and a Casket in your SRV before you go to the Obelisk to scan it. Also notice it had a * after it,means you have the right items in your SRV for the next scan too.
10) Repeat until all items have been done
11) Do NOT delete any NOTIFICATIONS until you have finished the page you're on, and checked that your Reward(In Transactions tab) is the same as GRAND TOTAL on the page. (after Page 1 you should have 18 Million)
12) If you get a mismatch, go through notifications and my map to work out which one you messed up
13) If all is good, and before going to Page 2, clear notifications, clear DATA from all "Pattern....." data, get next map ready, and go !
14) Do all 15 pages
15) Once all 101 scans are done, go back to FELICE DOCK and hand mission in.
16) To do this mission again, undock from FELICE DOCK, then go back and redock(you will be given the mission again). Sometimes if that doesn't work, go in to SC then come back and dock.
1) Print or open Page 1 map on a spare screen(also print the blank missions sheet, if you wish to tick off each item as you scan it)

BLANK CHECK SHEET
Use this if you intend to do this mission in several sessions. This keeps track of your progress. e.g. If you do a T7 then tick off TECH 7.
