Greetings, commanders!
I am on my first exploration trip and was wondering how rare stars are explored and what is the best strategy to find specific undiscovered star.
For example, I am currently searching for DBZ type white dwarf. The questions that I have are:
1. How do I find a sector of the region of the galaxy where chances to find one are maximal?
2. When in such region, how do I search for the target?
I am sure there is a star of this type in a region I'm in, as the codes says so and some of them are registered in EDSM.
Edit 1: the galaxy is huge, and when filtering by star type, stars are not displayed or targetable when you zoom out.
Additionally, I can filter only by star class, which is white dwarf in this case. There are multiple types of white dwarfs, one of which is DBZ. Each of those filtered systems may contain DB, DA, DC, DAB, etc. If I am searching gal map manually, how do I approach this search efficiently to maximize my chances?
Edit 2: use EDAstro to check distribution - https://forums.frontier.co.uk/threads/what-is-your-exploration-strategy.554473/post-8698197.
Any tips would be appreciated!
