Tactical Core Chips

- Start date
how do you guys manage to pick up the chips with collectors? In my case every time a collector flies out to pick up somethink (can you even see the core chips under the contact menu?) it crashes into the ground and gets destroyed.
Ive found you need to be over the target and pretty high up, its still hit and miss
O7
I just needed another 3 (single pickup) and after exploding a few times in military settlements, I decided to just brute force it by using a small ship at a spire site and bomb every revenant I come across while ignoring the banshee. After destroying 1 I fly as close to the ground as possible to see if a core chip appears in my contacts tab.
After a few revenant kills, finally saw 1 and landed my ship while the banshee launches it mines. Boom, shields down.
Disembarked in my scarab and quickly select the core chip in my contacts and rushed over there while scouts keep hammering my ship.
Picked it up (FINALLY), turn around and saw my ship blew up. Oh well, got what I came for. My fragile scarab fell to revenant beams shortly.
And that's how I spent 3 hrs of my weekend getting the %^$&@#%!! core chips.

Those banshees are impossible in a ship. I've put 20-30 missiles into them and full guns the whole way in my krait. Takes minutes to take it out. Yet I've seen people take them out with rifles easily.
Im trying to land and get the parts in the gazebos. Might not be worth it but I just want to say I atleast did a few rescue ship missions. Haven't tried the spires yet though.

Not impossible but yeah, it does take some time. I took a conda with 6xAXMRs and I ran out of ammo on 4 of them just to take out all the banshees at the spire site, that's about 100 missiles per banshee
the remaining 2 axmrs were enough to farm like 60 tactical chips though

Banshees are easier to knock down if you shoot your missiles in front of them, so that the explosion occurs below the Banshee. Their hull is weaker on the underside. I am using a Conda vith four AX missiles, in six shot they're done.
I've even done this the "traditional" way with friends in two tanks. Great fun.
Perhaps the sneaky Thargoids themselves finally put that very thought into their heads --> https://forums.frontier.co.uk/threads/elite-dangerous-update-19-02-28-november-2024.630817/
re: "Ram Tah has made further technical advances and the Tactical Core Chip is no longer required as part of the recipe for Anti-Guardian Zone Resistance "
