Hello how do I find P-type Anomaly and Q-type Anomaly?

[adventurer8612]

I'm currently departing on a long pilgrimage with a teammate to Colonia and doing exploration along the way there. I see this as a great opportunity to fill up my codex as we hop there. As I was thumbing through the codex, I noticed it mention P-type and Q-type spawns in rings and asteroid belts. So I got a list of questions as to how to find them:

1) Does this mean you won't see a concentrated signals like with a Lagrange Cloud?
2) Would this mean I have to drop into every ring and belt and hope the anomaly spawns in?
3) Are there any known factors or odds to increase my chances of encountering them?

Thanks for any help

Welcome! First off, I'd like to recommend my guide on NSPs. To answer your specific questions though:
1) Only with NSPs that spawn inside asteroid belts, because the FSS is bugged for those. Use the navigation (left) panel to notice them.
2) Nope. Anomalies (and all the other NSP content) only appear inside the NSP signals, they won't spawn elsewhere.
3) If the system you're in meets all the spawn criteria, then the NSP(s) will spawn: if it doesn't, they won't.
However, with a lot of them you are looking for specific planet types too (like "system has to contain a WW / ELW"), in which case you'll have to look at increasing your chances of finding those bodies. It depends on which Anomalies exactly you are looking for.

Good luck with your search!

Many thanks for the help! Hope to find one of these sights soon
