From Inara:
This engineer may be upgraded to build higher grades of blueprints over time. Please report any changes.
Be aware that although he is capable to engineer grade 5 Shield cell banks, no such blueprints exists!
Has anyone gone to Colonia, just for the shield cell upgrade?

Yep. Only G1-G4. I pinned it just in case.
I completely endorse optimism - fingers crossed the day does arrive!

Not even that. You respawn at the nearest station now.
Still one grade higher than in the bubble.
yeah I just did it.
72 jumps in a stripped anaconda using spanish plotter. did it in 1 evening. took a sidewinder back.
took longer to unlock the engineers than to get there.

The alt I made for DW2 just took permanent residence in Colonia. I already miss my nan's stew. And any Class A core module bigger than size 3.
Rat on first read of this I was regretting my decision to fly to Colonia a little less and then noted you self describe as a compulsive liar! SO Colonia is in fact a barren gankfest wasteland serving dodgy sausage rolls! Help me JesusHmmm...
Perhaps we should paint Colonia in a worse light... Don't want folk thinking that they can just come out here to millions of pristine rings to mine, easy access to most unexplored space, or a bunch of 'really nice folk' who only gank their friends (nice to strangers - and as no-one is stranger than I)...
As soon as Phisto had posted about 'growing' their engineers I had a 'good' reason to return. shame I now have to wait for a new HOTAS to arrive
At least not long (maybe half a year) ago the free Sidewinder still used to send you back to the bubble, regardless of where you die (used to be one of the starter systems, e.g. LHS3447, don't know how it's now with the new playpen).
If there's one with a suitable landing pad in the system you die in, yes.
If you die in the middle of deep space it's still "last docked station" (or that was what it was supposed to be according to the documentation)
No, the sausage rolls are fine, honestly... ask PhistoRat on first read of this I was regretting my decision to fly to Colonia a little less and then noted you self describe as a compulsive liar! SO Colonia is in fact a barren gankfest wasteland serving dodgy sausage rolls! Help me Jesus
I was just in the area, so I figured why not.
There’s some other little convenience items out there that are nice to pin, too.
You’d be fine with standard mods available in the bubble, though, the trip isn’t necessary to remain competitive in PvP.

You've got 70Ly and you'll be on the neutron highway? That puts Colonia in the 'popping round the corner' category. You'll wonder why you've never done it before.
Would it have been cheaper to strip it bare, sell the ship and ship the modules back ?

OK It's not something I have ever done, but it was how I understood it worked now. That does explain how I ended up back at Jamesons after my crash at The View though.....
Well, I made it. I am now landed in Colonia! Yay.
