My Elite Dangerous RANT OF THE DAY

[Lightspeed]

I plot the 2 neutrons otw to THARGOID BUBBLE (Witch Head Nebula), Route plotter malfunctions. Apparently there is a small tube of unlocked systems angled from the bubble, NOT the Neutrons... So I have an epiphany, and realize Ive been there before (Visited Systems filter). FINALLY GET THERE!!! Whats in this little bubble? THARGOIDS! Whats needed to kill THARGOIDS? WEAPONS!!! WHATS NOT IN THE WITCH HEAD BUBBLE??? GUARDIN TECH BROKER!!! Are you FLIPPIN' SERIOUS!?!?!?!? No Guardian tech broker... in the only THARGOID location??? OMFGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok, Im done... who has the coffee?

OP has a point - the Technology Broker is at

Bray Landing

Witch Head Sector LC-V c2-9

and is human !

I don't know if the Technology Broker is working at the moment (haven't tried), but the Materials Trader at

Ratchet Hub

Witch Head Sector EB-X c1-7

is Encoded and has not been working since the "update."

As far as I am aware, not even the Pleiades Sector, which is also full of Thargoids, has a Guardian Technology Broker.

EDIT - It is as if FD are trying to establish the Witch Head Colony, regardless of the Thargoid USSs (they declared the systems to be rid of Thargoids at the end of the II, which is true as far as CZs are concerned), and therefore is not in need of a Guardian broker. Going forward, it may get one, but the priority appears to be on establishing the colony itself, similar to Colonia, which has no Guardian Tech Broker (or does it?). but there is a Guardian Tech Broker at

You forgot the 6 P's of life...

Prior Preparation and Planning Prevent Poor Performance

not at all... using the In-Game features and tools, I checked for all these things. But, since the update... according to the galaxy map filters, there are no: Raw Material Traders, Manufactured Material Traders, Encoded Material Traders, Human Technology Brokers, Guardian Technology Brokers, Interstellar Factors, nor Black Markets in the WHOLE GALAXY!!!

Oh yeah, I almost forgot about that “against personal beliefs” scam he pushed on them awhile back. So terribly weak...

have a gander at HD 56167... seems to have been discovered... and claimed...

'in the only Thargoid location'.

Something changed with the Thargoids?
Have I missed something?

yes

They have all succumbed to the Thargoid blight!
