Prismatic Shield

MrJohnDC · Dec 10, 2019

Visited around 20 stations shown in an Inary list looking for a 7A prismatic shield generator, but none to be found.
Have done my stint with Duval and have already purchased a prismatic for my Python.
But cannot find one for the Corvette I've just purchased.
Is it possible to buy more than one? If so where can I find one?
I'm currently docked in Ogunda.

If you leave duval you can no longer buy them.

This. When doing PP for modules it's best to have enough cash on hand so you can buy at least one of each class so you don't have to do it again.

Yep. Best to stock up on shields, then ditch her for good.
Module storage shouldn't be much of an issue.

Depending on your fleet makeup, you might want more than one of each to cover everything. I think a lot of ships use 3 or 5? Anyway, what I did was to look at my fleet and get one for each and then a few more of the popular ones just to try to cover for any future additions.

One of many reasons to make modules accesible via tech brokers too...

Big time.
Unlock via normal way and then purchasable at the tech broker after that.

I also believe this should happen for engineered parts... Engineer a blueprint once, then unlocked for good at tech broker. that would be the biggest QoL ever to come to this game.

Thanks for the replies.
Didn't realise that once I left Duval I wouldn't be able to buy more Prismatic.
At the time I wasn't going to buy more ships, but I suppose it's 'never say never'.

Yes to the first part and no to the second. If you want to have all PP modules and store engineered versions of them and maybe you have more then one ship, it is already tight. But then you maybe you want to have regular modules stored too.
