I know that I could do it with my ASPX.
But I've been wanting to add an Orca to my modest collection.
I have the credits to get it, outfit it, and for insurance in case of emergency.
There's nothing to stop you just taking one group of passengers in an Orca, if the mission gets you what you need.
Qwent's MTs were a real pain, as I recall... There are some systems that have multiple missions handing them out though - try Chakpa and Oochosi and see if they are running right now.
I never found any missions for MTs from Patterson Enterprise at the time, which did not help!![]()
Don't forget that Marco Qwent's system (Alioth) is permit locked. You'll need to unlock it by getting allied with Sirius Corporation.
Then go find your MTs...
Ok, so I've decided I want to take my Thrusters mod to G5.
To do that, I need to unlock Professor Palin.
To unlock him, I need to unlock Marco Qwent.
To unlock Marco, I need 25 Modular Terminals.
According to Inara and EDDB, there is not one single station in the Galaxy that's selling them.
I went to Qwent Research Base to see if there was any help there. Perhaps he wanted them from a specific location. But, no such luck.
How do I unlock Marco then?
Some help would be greatly appreciated.
Are there any other data bases that might tell me where I need to go get those Modular Terminals?
I'm currently sitting at Qwent Research Base scratching my head.
How can I find Mega Ship Wrecks then?
I have paid attention to mission rewards since I started and after 814+ completed Missions, I have no recollection of seeing Modular Terminals offered as any mission reward.
I won't shy from a challenge.
The easiest way to get MT is to do Evac passenger missions from damaged stations from Thargoid attacks (as previously mentioned by other CMDR's). These stations are shown on the galaxy map. You will get the required 25 MT's after about 30 mins...or less. So get any decent sized ship and fill with Eco cabins, 25T of cargo space and at least 1 heat sink (inside the stations are a firestorm and you WILL take heat damage on landing and exit). Also be aware that there are explosions happening inside the docking area that could push your ship into the wall/ground.
