Looks like taranis Week 1 as far as I saw - I didn't do much in there though, so could be wrong
Quick Tip for finding Titan Drive Components; don't relog!
- Thread starter Jmanis
- Start date
So, looks like the salvage at Taranis (due to the lack of cloud and any real threat) is greatly reduced.
On the upside, no cloud meant i could get a nice shot of a cyst pearl... although based on it's appearance... cyst (being abnormal) seems to not quite describe it, given how it's "held"
- Abrasion points are still there and still dump the usual stuff.
- Loose salvage (including Titan Drive Components) seems to spawn at a drastically lower rate

I hope one day we get a use for those mineables. Maybe next week - as Leigong will still be caustic. If not soon they'll be waiting for Oya to explode and be farmable which is weeks away.
Yeah look... i know this is Jmanis QQing more, but the fact the current, massive suite of Thargoid materials amount to nothing more than glorified AX synthing (like, who would actually need to synththe nanite torps???) is just a big waste... then on the cargo front, the fact there's even two different bits you can get from a Scythe... that just seems excessive if it's nothing more than just loot.
It’s just getting the stuff in game early for when we can start base building on landable ammonia gas giants after update…
Just been to Taranis.
Indeed, caustic cloud is gone and much easier to get cargo, though TDC's are still not spawning very often.
Hunters and others seem to be circling and not a threat for cold ship.
Also killed a hunter and got damaged, but there is also NPC rescue ships which send Repair Limpets to you, but also NPC Pirates after your cargo!

My impression of the caustic ranges was ~50 km > 30km > 0(nothing). Because week 2 has no sensor distortion and there was a distance of 30 kilometers to the center of the wreck when the caustic started/stopped when I went out.
Did the mass lock range change with week 3 now? It was at around ~35-37 on week 2, possibly also week 1(as mass lock cleared even while still stuck in the caustic remnant).
… and if there are NPC pirates at the Taranis wreck now, I might have to go do some ‘business’ with them. The kind that involves hardpoints.
As for the use of the ‘mineable’ items, will Palin say anything for them now? He didn’t when the Taranis wreck became first accessible and I brought stuff over. Or maybe Aegis is going to start looking that way now.
The first two drives I collected spawned as I flew around.
The last 5 only spawned after I waited for, and destroyed one heart of an interceptor.
Yes, just took my second trip out to the Taranis wreckage since the tick, can confirm TDCs are still spawning, I saw 2 on the trip, but as you say there are human NPC pirates out there now, and was chased off before I could collect the 2nd TDC.
Is the drive initive over?
The CG is over but if you don't want to do 'Killing Oya' or sampling, etc, etc, just go and collect everything if you have a FC.
I am sure all the collected goods are worth something in the future, and if not, they are good to sell.
Also it is a great change to the usual game loops.

I figure it out, thanks. I decided to replenish my mats, filled the Core Dynamic Composites up, got quite a bit of a few other grade 5 mats in the process.
