Sothis Community Goal Guide

If you fly about 3000-4000 ls away from the star and then turn and fly roughly towards the star, you'll be able to see the planets moving against the star field. This is the parallax method used by explorers before they can afford an ADS.

(The ADS should never have had infinite range in my opinion, so this should still have been required to locate very distant companions).


Ah man.... I am failing at this... In the spirit of the CG...
if anyone is currently in system... if HIP 11879 1 is at 12 o'clock (from "above?") what o'clock is HIP 11879 2?

I'm on my way there, just cashing in the millions from the other CG beforehand. I'll also be mining in a Python, so anyone who has questions or other shenanigans to do with me, feel free to add me as CMDR Chaodiurn in-game.

I just had a text from my Brother telling me the CG has been re-balanced again and we are now past Tier 1! :)

If you go to your Galaxy Map & then view the System data for HIP 11879 you can select the purple planet with a ring....1st one from the sun....that should set your target to HIP 11879 1...
select the tan one with the tan and silver rings...that will get you to HIP 11879 2

(I was mining in HIP11879 2, tks to Ben's post & helpful guide at the beginning of this post...but now hauling to try get CG to at least tier 1 lol )

...sorry for the delay(was rerouting on my way to Sothis System lol...gotta scoop that fuel lol)
 
Do confirm! T1 breached!

Just checked...Yea!!! Tier 1!!! :) :)

Just got killed along the way in a decent Python full of gold!!!

If you see Adam Gregory, kill him for me.

Kill him good.

Do you remember what system you were in when he killed you? (Concerned Python owner with gold in the hold lol)

...updated to include the reward tier in the same post as wisely mention by Chaodirum :)

Indeed, tier 1 reached, and at the rate large haulers have been coming in today, I'm starting to believe tier 2 is actually reachable.

^ this

is almost exactly what I am doing. I tend to pick up from Morrina or Qawasing but there are enough placed to grab gold.

or if you're feeling brave, don't go with a shield at all. Just hope you don't bump into Code or some of the NPC pirates lurking on the way there.
 
Instead of just editing the first post... :p

lol wasn't thinking about that, just manually finding a scoop able star for fuel, screen shooting, uploading screen shot...then thinking about the other python owner with gold in the hold that died on the way to Sothis....lol ;)

but you are right, it makes more sense to have the CG info in the same post lol :) ..I have updated the above post to have both screen shots in it :)

So great to see we made it to tear 1! Need to haul some more, motivation is going through the roof :D

Heck yea, & since it was announce that the Sothis CG hit Tier 1...8 more contributors have been added ...Yea!! more contributors :)

Hopefully FD will take the step to extend this goal over the weekend. Week day players do not have the time for the relatively huge journey and missed out last weekend because of all unbalanced stuff and bugs like 'Hutton Mug Created', Demand for Gold 0, gold being delivered and not registering, Gold price below galactic average, Tier 1 approximately 2.5 million units and so on. Fingers crossed.

As much as I'd love that I'm afraid the compensation for that lies in the rate they lowered the tier requirements already.
