So i went out to the guardian sites and wasted a lot time

Really Frontier i dont know what to say. A hint would have been nice get a ship with storage and you need to search for different locations to get the needed items to solve.

So i went to Ram Tah for some engineer stuff and got this new mission. Fine. Ok i have a few weeks to get this ready so i went to the first site and try to get something out of that scanable objects but well nothing.
I tryed to pick up different items but no result. Ok maybe not that simple to solve ? Nah its simple but the needed item (orb) is not found at that site.
How should someone figure out if the needed items are not there? Ok then if you have a ship without cargo bay how can i get the needed items to that site ? Also where are the sites with that item ?

Really maybe someone might have fun with this but not me. I dont like waste hours to finally see that needed items are not there to solve or even scan and get data out.

Then i looked more here in forums and found you might need thargoid items aswell ?
Why cant i get this info in game before i went out and start this mission ? Why do i relay on out of game sources ?

Finally commanders even report the mission magicly dissaperas from the tab even with weeks of time left.

I went straight to the Guardian site based on the GalNet info. Then I learned you needed to get the mission first, so I few off to Meene.

I've probably invested at least 6 hours traveling and upgrading my FSD to make the travel bearable and I have nothing yet to show for my effort.

Am I wrong in believing I go to the Guardian sites do some scans and I'm done?

I think I'm ready to take my FSD upgrades and give up.
 
Ok.. the orbs are often lost, they are round and they roll away.

I found one at the bottom of a hill quite far away from the site walst battleing a gardian drone.

It will take you QUITE some time to do all the sites and decode them all.

I havent done all of them yet, i mainly went there to harvest the materials for gardian tech brokers, i havent gotten around to doing the actual mission but i have decoded some of the sites.

You dont NEED to use out of game info, people worked it out in game before they posted it online, how do you think they did it? It sounds like you may not have the patience for this type of activity thogh. I mean is it worth the 30mill to you?

Or just take a deep breath and have another stab at it, if you realy want to do it you just have to keep trying and you will eventually.

i'm unclear about what you have to do to get the 30 mil. Based on YouTube videos I thought it was as simple as going to one of the mission sites, energizing some pillars and activating a central rotating thingy.

The description on GalNet made it seem rather simple.
 
This has been my biggest issue with ED from day one. The missions are poor, the instructions are mostly missing, the rewards are poor. The objectives or reasoning generally make no sense. For these reasons I avoid missions as much as possible.

Step 1:
You need to unlock the human broker 16t corrosive resistant cargo rack. I was chased by pirates and even hyperdicted by the Thargoids carrying all the required materials. Luckily I had a field neutraliser on my ship :D

Step 2
Set-up your Guardian mission ship before you do anything(make sure to equip 16t corrosive resistant cargo rack). If you don't have enough cargo space, you can't switch ships later. Ships with small landing profiles are best as some Guardian site are difficult to land on. For the next FDev live stream I challenge Ed to try and land a ASPx on the Guardian structure site in SYNUEFE TP-F B44-0 CD 1 :p.

Step 3
Start the Ram Tah mission

Step 4
Take you ship equipped for Thargoids(make sure you have a research limpet and 16t corrosive resistant rack), and head to the Pleiades and gather a Thargoid probe, sensor, link and three tissue samples from the different flower ships without dying.

Step 5
Sneak into the station and swap to your Guardian mission ship.(Thargoid items are illegal)

Step 6
Head out to the Guardian sites and gather x2 orbs, x1 casket, x1 relic, x1 urn, x1 totem and x1 tablet.

Now you are ready for your mission, the canonn research website is very useful to find the 28 audio logs. You will be rewarded 58,000,000 credits.

I finally completed the mission yesterday, I was kind of hoping it would of unlocked new Guardian tech at the broker, but nothing new yet.

if you need that much hand-holding wait for the rest of the year, it is going to be fantastic!!!
 
I had 14 data logs discovered before the Ram Tah mission vanished from my transactions list. Super frustrating. I won't bother starting over, I'm doing other things in the game now.


Good luck Andi.

So ideally to unlock the new tech you need to have already unlocked the new tech to get a 16t CRCR?
The 16t corrosive resistant cargo rack was available from the get go from human brokers. Maybe it can't be seen if you have not unlock engineer Palin for the 2t corrosive resistant cargo rack.

Ahh ok, my bad. I didn't know they were human tech. Makes sense that they are though. :)

I have Palin's CRCR's unlocked, but not dabbled in or really followed the guardgoid story since 3.0 dropped.

Is this for real?
 
Thank the gods I read this thread! Was about to start the long haul out there last night but the new Punishment overhaul caught me out and I ended up having to deal with that (all modules stuck with a legal warning and a tiny 200C fine that I finally found, buried in a sub sub menu on the right hand panel), maybe overhaul the crime part next, eh?

This sounds as convoluted as the getting the Thargoid mother ship to light up, which I also couldn't be ... with (watched Obsidiant Ant do it). At this point I really think Fdev are just trolling their customers - it really reminds me of the adventure games of yore, where an almost invisible nail (miss that and it was game over five hours thence), stick of gum bought from the old shopkeeper, some soot and well water had to be mixed together to get thru the loose board in the fence.

Would it have broken the bank to record Ram Tah saying, 'Not sure what is out there, you might need to do some prep for this mission commander'.

Very thorough. Best so far. I like the two ship setup. I hate the need for it but it might help a bit. Also wasn't even aware of 16t cargo rack...

Thanks for the detailled description. Sounds like something I totally don't want to do ever.
