Hunting Guardian Stuff

I use Google Drive because I want to maintain ownership of the images. Other online storage places want me to agree to allow them to use my images.

Don't need an "App" to view images in Google Drive unless you are on an I-Something or a Steve Jobs (No one will ever use a phone bigger than 3 inches wide.) size limited android device. My 7.7 and larger Samsung International tablet/Phones have and still are able to access my Google Drive via the website using a browser.

When I said "clean up my google drive" I mean that I am going to use one of the several programs I have that will allow me to get the size down.. I have also seen the results of things that have been made very compressed. They look great as thumbnails. They are almost unrecognizable as full screen.

"Clean up" also means that I am going to look at the dates and if I know that an UPDATE to the game has made the PIC/Video irrelevant, I will remove it.

YMMV

Ok, I have 3 MODULE FRAGMENTS.
I have enough Guardian Tech to make the Booster.
Going to check out the Ancient Ruins here on Synuefe NL-N C23-4
Then spend time restocking the Planetary Mats I used since they are all available in this system.

When you save a JPEG image at 100% quality, only lossless compression is used but the files are very much smaller.

I play the game for fun so I don't post stuff to YouTube for my profit or Google's.

I also have a real world sharpening (beauty, barber, grooming, veterinarian, livestock, knives, lawn & garden tools) business and I make and sell instructional videos to teach PROFESSIONAL sharpeners how to do those things so I have the tools to do the editing and such. I have twice been published in an international publication for Professional Sharpeners and twice did live presentations at international conventions.
.
I don't post them to YouTube so google makes a profit and besides, because I only want PROFESSIONAL sharpeners to see them because some of the techniques in the minds/hands of amateurs WILL result in destruction of very expensive ( I am a licensed cosmetologist in Texas and get 30$/haircut, my personal beauty shears, have about a $2000.00 original value, likely 5000$ replacement, and a 10$ a pair sharpener simply won't have the money to replace them when they screw them up) beauty or barber or grooming tools giving " professional sharpeners" a bad name.

Since my target audience is very very small, the best I can hope for is to break even. But somethings, like professional reputation, are more important than money.

As I said. I am going to do spring cleaning which will entail image size reduction and outdated image deletions.

That said.. These discussions about image size and such should be in the tech forums..

Ancient Ruin 2 SYNEFE NL-N C23-4 does NOT appear to be the Ruin mentioned in one of the walk through since even though there are two sets of obelisks that are side by side, they always produce random data.

On a separate note. When I did the DSS of the planet it listed 1 Guardian Structure and 4 Ancient Ruins.
The nav panel only lists the GS and 3 AR's.

OK. Ancient Ruin 1 SYNEFE NL-N C23-4
This is the one Referenced in the SYNEFE NL-N C23-4 walk through as being a place to find two obelisks side by side that repeatedly produce Pattern Epsilon. Maybe they did in the past, but they are random now.

That said, with 9 active obelisks, I have had more luck getting the Epsilon here.

AR1 SYNEFE NL-N C23-4 Small – Google Drive

drive.google.com drive.google.com

I decided that since I am here, I am going back to the Structure when I have the Epsilon I think I might need and get some more GTC's.

Might as well have enough stuff to do the FSD and at least one Fighter later if I decide I need one.

Then replenish planetary mats in this system before I go on with the quest for the Guardian FSD Booster.

YMMV Enjoy

I think you may have gotten this wrong.
The guide does not say the Obelisks repeatedly produce Epsilon Patterns. Obelisk are always producing random Pattern.
The guide is only saying that there are 2 Obelisks very close to each other and you can place the SRV between them and scan them both without moving the SRV, then relog.
The entire operation (hop in turret, scan, rotate, scan, exit) can be completed in less than a minute - making the process of farming Patterns a quite fast one.

I faced the second one. Open the turret, target, scan. I then swiveled the turret left, targeted the second one, scanned. Log off, log on. A cycle took me approximately 40 seconds. It took me (including breaks because my attention span is terrible) an average of 15 minutes to get enough Pattern Epsilon for one vessel blueprint (26 patterns/9 drops). I liked this method because I spent minimal time actually driving (0 seconds), which was time not spent either relogging or scanning (37 seconds).

The video shows him getting Epsilon from BOTH Obelisks in the same session.

In 4 trips now to those two Obelisks I have yet to get even 1 Epsilon.

Between the three AR's I now have 5 locations where there are 2 obelisks side by side and none of them have ever produced more than 1 Epsilon in one session. more like 1 Epsilon in 3 sessions. As noted,, MIND NUMBINGLY BORING. I would rather drive around.
One set are so nicely placed that I could get both SRV's in position and scan with both in each session and still didn't get more than 1 Epsilon in a session.

the idea is to set the SRV between the two obelisks and scan & relog.
Indeed it is mind numbing boring, but you only have to do it once
Since scan and relog it is really fast on PC, in 40 minutes one can get quite an amount of epsilon patterns while filling up on alpha beta and gamma patterns. Delta patterns are even rarer - but fortunately they have little use.
