Where do I find Meta alloys?

Just bought my imperial clipper so now going to start with the engineer upgrades. First one I want is the extended fsd range, but is need I unit of meta alloys, yesterday when I checked the trade tool there was a station selling them but today there are none for sale.
 
there is only one place to buy meta-alloys: surface port darnielles progress in the maia system. fit exploration scanners and fuelscoop - it is a bit out of the bubble.

you can alternatively harvest them from barnacles - here is a very good thread on how-to: https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php/275874-Known-Barnacle-Sites-a-Short-guide

barnacles are in the same direction of maia - at least most of those we found.


such a beauty, the clipper!

Ye thats the station that was selling them yesterday, I guess they don't sell them all the time
Thanks for the help, and yes the clipper is fantastic.
 
wait to it refresh and here just look for the commodity and type in the nearest station https://eddb.io/trade/commodity
also use planet on the tab. So far maia has ten

I'm heading to Maia system as thats the only system that seems to sell them but both the link you sent and the trading app I have on my mobile are coming up blank

thanks, I had planetary landings unticked

Send me a message on xbox live and I'll drop one for you, I bought 4 to give my friends 1 each but I can always get more later on ☺

I also can not find meta-alloys at Darnielle's Progress. It's not even listed as not having any left. It's simply missing from the commodities market.
 
If anyone NEEDS a meta alloy to unlock Felicity Farseer then please message me as I have 4 left and am willing to give away 3 of those 4 to 3 lucky individuals 😊
I may even travel to Deciat later on too so message me on Xbox Live with the gamertag

Thanks for the offer but I just noticed this thread is in the Xbox section (I'm on PC). Found it via search and never noticed the forum section it was in.
 
I've been in Darnell's Progress a couple of days and no luck on the Meta Alloy...so what is going on?! Can anyone provide some decent Intel as to whether it is better to just dig in and wait or go and try to harvest one from a Barnacle??!
I'm not a noon, but have been out of the loop until I bought Horizons the other day and it all seems like no one can really give anyone a clear answer!
Help!

😂
 
I'm not in game at the moment, but purchasing them at Darnielle's Progress was supposed to be a temporary fix because the Barnacles had stopped dropping them and needed to be patched from Frontier. Perhaps they have finally fixed the Barnacles? If so, perhaps it's time to go find one on a planet surface and harvest Meta-Alloys the old fashioned way.
 
No longer for sale at darnielle's, not dropping from nodes. Frontier needs to fix. At the very least make supply at darnielle's unlimited until they're harvestable.

Just got a Meta Alloy from this location. There are two Barnacles and both were "active" for me.

I know this isn't a perfect solution... But upon some research, Farseer is actually not a particularly important engineer, unless you want lvl 5 shield mods.

For me, that's only a tertiary mod, so I'm not too fussed right now. Everything else the Farseer tree offers, is available elsewhere.
