Can we complete the mission at the end of the CG anywhere in the bubble ?
Generally what Graphite wrote.
And the Musashi is planned to jump to T Tauri on Apr 22. So if she arrives there you could complete the CG also if the auto timer didn't trigger yet.

Edit: Musashi will jump already on Apr 7, right after this CG ends. On Apr 22 the Heart of Taurus will follow.

Beta site Version 2 ruins 1 Item pattern... Yes its different than version 1..

Even at Synuefe XR-H d11-102 this spot increased my collection rate significantly.

Running with 4 x 5B Collectors (for the 2 click range) but I think the 5A Collectors would have been fine as well. Generally shooting 12 limpets a relog.

The half run from my original spot (upside down other side over the dais) in HORIZONS saw:
216 limpets spent with 73 returns
(3 limpets per unit)

@GraphiteGB 's spot in HORIZON saw:
290 limpets spent with 190 returns
(1.5 limpets per unit)

From the Canonn list these were the only BETA sites with low gravity (only checked moons):

In addition to the BETA sites the following alpha/gamma sites were noted:

Re-did the run in ODYSSEY from GraphiteGB's spot in over the ruins in Synuefe XR-H d11-102:

512 limpets spend with 287 returns
(1.8 limpets per unit)

Honestly more runs in both HOR and ODY would be needed to find the rate of limpets over time. (lost my time log, it was late and session was broken into chucks)

In HOR I was waiting until every limpet expired which amounted to nearly a half hour longer in collections. In ODY I was relogging even if there were two or three limpets trying to get to last few difficult collections.

HOWEVER,

Wow, the Guardian ruins site was much more beautiful in ODY. I know many CMDRs still talk about preferring HOR but I never want to go back again. Except for the Crystal Forests, I guess I'm making one more trip there yet.

If we're keeping score:

In Odyssey, I used the site at Synuefe CE-R c21-6 (the mining CG location) C1, launched 490 limpets with 393 returns: 1.25 limpets per unit.

I parked my Cutter upside down 30m over the site (rising to 300+m before relog to avoid the 15 sec threat delay and descending beck to 30m afterwards), firing off twelve limpets at a time and waiting till they all expired.

I attribute the low limpet/unit ratio to my firing off so many limpets at once: this meant they would spread themselves across the site whereas fewer limpets at a time might mean a higher percentage of limpets repeatedly being attracted to close but "suicidal" Guardian item locations.

Or it could just have been dumb luck! 🤷‍♂️ :)

That's actually awesome.

Synuefe CE-R c21-6 C 1 is a 0.19 G planet. Honestly hadn't expected the limpets to perform so well over 0.15G so good to know that.

More I was curious about the debate about "should one farm in HOR or ODY".
I'm just happy to see ODY is competitive or exceeding HOR. I don't think the returns on limpet collections were that good immediately after ODY dropped.
 
In opposition to limpets:

They are efficient but boring! I believe I have secured the decal quite comfortably using just my Viper. I'm in the top 25% right now.
I'd agree that the limpet method is dull and grindy so I don't do it myself but for those that view relogski as "quality content" I suppose it's their choice.
Driving round in the SRV feels like enough desecration of ancient archaeological sites...🤪

Positioning
I am seeking a position where limpets will work well.
By the way, my limpets only eject once a second, what should I do to make them as hardworking as yours?
I would appreciate it if you could share your technique with me.
Especially with regard to CG, your comments at this forum has always helped me. Thank you.

So.... I'm a noob at Guardian stuff and I reckon I'm missing something crucial.

I just arrived at Synuefe ZL-J d10-119 9 b and without even having to scan the body, I saw "Ancient Ruins (1)" in my nav panel. I went there and was able to use the Comp Scanner to get a Codex entry, but my contacts panel is totally empty - no totems/relics/etc lying around on the ground as I had sort-of been expecting based on the posts above.
What am I failing to do? :)
(This is an Alpha ruin, according to http://elitedangerous.hozbase.co.uk)
