My quest to find Raxxla.. (FDev take note?)
- Thread starter electro
- Start date
I have started go to the brow of casspoeia in super cruise in the bubble but it takes to much time.(but which of all the pictures should be used? Thats a problem)
If Raxxla is small this going to be tricky since Its just on pixel to miss it. If its large(like an undocumented star) it needs to be visible in parallax.
The as I said above its most lilkely in the void between the stars in the bubble but which star is the place of origin.(First I thought founders world since it is excluded from powerplay and the dark wheel faction is there) But I have gone for 2ly from example Shinrarta dezhra in supercruise (aka 12hours) and found nothing.
Running in supercruise for days is not ... fun. I wonder if I will stop this now...the void is simple to large to find anything if Raxxla is too small.

Your thesis makes the assumption that Raxxla was found in 2296 by humans. This may not be a safe assumption. The myth could have been born from 3rd hand knowledge. For instance, it's existence was communicated to mankind by finding an alien object or receiving communications from aliens without having set eyes on Raxxla itself.
I hope you have availed yourself of the extensive research on this subject on the Quest for Raxxla forum thread and other discords etc. Alot of work has been done over the last 6 years. There are some summaries to save tedious thread disgesting. Search for Xaintly's summary of theforum thread or look at #what we know and the publications thread on Independent Raxxla Hunter's Discord.
When working with the idea that the dark wheel is known with another name I looked up anything on their symbol and notices that there is only for factions with stars. Then I selected the one that was a theocracy since its most likely if you read the story . TDW behaves as cult. I got allied with "stars of lofi" and nothing happend 
Ok.. now I have crunshed the numbers. I have 745 system with three suns(no special main sun type) or four suns with the largest being an yellow-white star all within 100ly from Shinrarta Dehzra. (Also considered all the possible number combinations of 1,3,6,18 in bodies in system and system closer to milkyway(thinking of this jewel on brow)). Am I supposed to go in supercruise against Lemon slice nebula for how many ly? That will take days for one star.... Thinks I need another clue before I can solve this.
( I hade more than 11000 systems with three or more stars so this had made a little more handble)

If you think it's been undiscovered for 7 years but there is a clue that nobody previously figured out.., you should check out this bridge i have for sale.
for every person who thinks they're in divinci code... there are hundreds of others doing the same thing times 7 years.
there are no clues to raxxla. i highly doubt raxxla is even user accessible.

I've heard people say they think Raxxla is in that cluster of permit locked systems which I guess is a possibility. As you pointed out, many groups of people have tried to find anything about it and have failed in their attempts.
We know for sure it does exist in the game though as both David Braben and Michael Brookes said it is: https://elite-dangerous.fandom.com/wiki/Raxxla
it could also be a ship rather than a stellar object ..just sitting around in a asteroid cluster. There are tons of those and they're almost universally ignored because they're good for nothing. You'd have to dive into each one to see what's there.
In terms of the rogue planets listed in the wiki article provided, I've only been able to pinpoint a couple in ED that I could check within a reasonable amount of time, and both were normal systems.
Not exactly conclusive, I know, but given the procedural nature of ED's Milky Way, I have my doubts that rogues would look any different from any other system.

What symbol are you looking at? If it is the one here: https://elite-dangerous.fandom.com/wiki/The_Dark_Wheel then you have been mislead as this is fan art and not official. The only official icon is given in the codex.When working with the idea that the dark wheel is known with another name I looked up anything on their symbol and notices that there is only for factions with stars.

If I had a penny, etc.
The novella "The dark wheel" that was included for free with the orginal elite. You can also read about the darkwheel on Ian Bells pages. The stars in my interpretetion of the green symbol that is the symbol with raxxla. I thought that it was a four stars system with the major was an sun like our sun. Or a three system there all i like our sun. Or a star like our sun and three planets (and then six gas gigants)
There was a few hundreds in the first 200ly. But that not the hard part. It is between which stars to go.
Has this raxxla been found.??? I recently experienced a longer than normal jump. But took no notice of it at the time. I also found 2 types of crystals molluscs and spheres in system Swoiwns ih-b c1-1. I will retrace my old routes.
Longer than normal, as in time? Or longer as in exceeded your typical jump range?
Because one is likely due to the horrendous connectivity issues with ED. The other, without having used FSD injections or neutron boost...well, that could be something interesting.
The time in witch space was longer seemed like twice as long to make the jump.
Does the witch space time vary? Seems always the same time apart from that one jump. Maybe the lucky codex finds I had was on route.
For a beginner like me to find 4 codex finds near the start system seems unlikely coincidence?
Witch space time can vary, yes. Has nothing to do with distance. It's simply a loading screen. Playing with wingmates and entering busy systems can cause witch space times get into the 30 second mark, especially if you have questionable internet reliability like I do.
As for the codex finds...they're kind of all over the place. That isn't to say don't go back and give it a more detailed look if you feel you should.
Finding Raxxla will focus on one of (at least) two ideas:
I still lurk on the Quest to Find Raxxla thread, though my time there is over mainly because everything we tried in our small group yielded nothing - and it got demoralising to us, and we agreed to do other things instead. Glad others aren't as despondent as us!
Keep up the good work, CMDRs!
- Raxxla is a hidden place that, once found, anyone will be able to visit (respecting game-related data such as permits, rank etc.);
- Raxxla has to be unlocked on a per-player basis via some kind of trail
