How to complete the Guardians Ruins mission, and find others to help get the final 7 codex.

Here is the data sheet we are currently using https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1uVmIjZMYC0DOjHYgWsuvJefdocLK-7iZl1Q81JlQ3es/edit#gid=0 It has all the (so far) known 2.3 combinations. CMDR Zach did an outstanding job on the original and OP laying down the route for pre 2.3 but it needs re-evaluating.
We are right now in the phase of not knowing if and what changed (there are definitely new sites being found and old combo's not working anymore) You would have to either wait (booooh), or go figure out new combo's yourself (yay :)) So, feel free to find your own and add them to the sheet, or use it as reference for things found (that work past 2.3).

Thanks for the info Snooch, do you know if there is (or if there are plans to have) a spreadsheet that says "Site GSnn has Codexes History 1, History 4 , Biology 3...")? I am willing to contribute information, but find it a complicated process. Is there a tutorial for newbies somewhere on how to contribute to the research? I already have my biscuits.

I cannot get the relic to spawn :?

Is there a trick to it? Scoured Synuefe XR-H D11-102 1 B and it never spawns where it is supposed to. I have yet to even see one :(

Yes, I found at least one relic (tower) there. When I get home later today (~6 pm CT) I will double check my notes, but I think there is one near C Cluster (near C12 obelisk).

I am using this guide, no amount of mode switching makes anything appear in these locations.

I have 4 of everything else tho and have moved onto the 1st set of oblelisk at the other Synuefe, if anyone is stuck.

That is a pre 2.3 map. It has changed.

It sounded like they were after Relics, which haven't changed. Maybe kdjac hasn't realised they need to be shot from the towers, though most ppl shoot everything on sight :)

As ever, you can check the front page for newer layouts (the first link, says it's to a Form, which is a bit misleading).

umm shot from what now? :eek::eek::eek::eek:

There was towers in those exact locations :S
 
I've been out here since the launch of 2.3. I've managed to crack 46 of these so far, and have been making extensive notes.
A special thanks to the folks at Canonn for providing me access to some of their resources (maps and diagrams), as these are not only a great help, but make my own notebook much easier to work with!

I am not planning to explore every known sight and every known obelisk - just enough to find all the data entries. Pre 2.3 this could be done across 5 planets with a bit of luck, a load of commanders and a lot of relogging.

I'm hoping for a better experience this time around.

I'm also working entirely in PG, and unless I absolutely cannot find certain data entries to complete the collection, I plan to keep it that way.
 
Hi, I'm not going to check the combinations here, but I checked the layout of the site I found a few weeks ago, along with which obelisks are now lit since 2.3:

IC 2391 Sector YE-A d103 B1:

But I thought someone in the know might check it against known Gamma layouts. I expect it's one already known, but hey.

BTW: The relics (and other artefact) locations HAVE indeed changed (at least at this site - Site 1).
 
I only need one more scan to complete this mission: Bio 19 from planet CD1 in SYNUEFE TP-F B44-0. If anyone is available to come by and help out with the scan I would be very grateful!

Edit: Complete! Thanks very much to CMDRs Gasperini, Ebbrell, Dr. Box, and others. o7

Hi, It seems everything is known (post 2.3) except Technology 6 (i am at 100/101).

I narrowed it down to a possible 8 known alpha sites:
COL 173 SECTOR KY-Q D5-47 | 9 A | -15.0842, -102.9397
COL 173 SECTOR LY-Q D5-13 | AB 9 A | 65.9181, -128.5455
COL 173 SECTOR OG-Z C15-35 | B 1 | -49.99, -129.99
COL 173 SECTOR OZ-U B33-6 | A 1 | 34.738, 17.818
COL 173 SECTOR KY-Q D5-47 8C 46,-171
SYNUEFE CE-R C21-6 | C 1 | -18.23, 0.27
COL 173 SECTOR OE-P D6-11 | C 2 | -18.9, 105.07 (B3?)
COL 173 SECTOR OT-Q D5-18 | D 2 | -31.64, 150.76
COL 173 SECTOR FC-L D8-28 | 14 C | -41.8041, -43.9197???
COL 173 SECTOR WZ-O B22-4 | C 5 | -13.15, 146.26???

Anyone else has these results up to now?
 
Currently at 100/101, needing Bio 11 to complete.

This is so badly broken however... I spent several hours yesterday at Col 173 [all that stuff] trying to get the Bio 11 obelisk to light, with about 8 other commanders.
The game tends to crash regularly when other commanders are hanging around like this. I think I submitted around 30 crash reports yesterday, many happened while doing nothing more than sitting still in my ship.

I just have a hard time understanding how a mission like this could have made it through alpha testing (I understand why it would make it through paida testing, since folks don't want to actually test, they just pay to figure out what the next best exploit/min-max benefit is) in the first place. It's such a great mission, but to have to resort to this sort of nonsense and then to be this unstable when in Open (in PG/Solo no crashing at all), is just mind-boggling.

Hi, I found Bio 11 on SYNUEFE ZL-J D10-109 E 3 (solo).
Actually i found 100 on solo.

Do you have a hint on Tech 6? That is the only one i am missing.
 
I'm stuck at 100/101. I followed a guide from here and the very last one Bio 05 isn't scanning for me, the same way tech 06 was before the latest patch.

Any ideas?
 
Hmmm, space treasure hunt grind! Guess I missed it while there was a bigger payout. Might just pass on this unless someone can convince me it's really interesting and not purely a slog after the first few.

If you like to drive an SRV, it's probably still worth doing once. It does get to be a bit grindy, like so much of this game. The silver lining is that if you stop having fun, you can call it quits and cash in. There no huge bonus to entice you to continue, if you aren't having fun anymore.

Here's a tip: Try to explore the ruins in daylight; they are much harder to navigate at night.
