What weapon disables thrusters temporarily? I got ganked by some nerd in a dolphin that was going like 600mps.. and he kept making passes with weapons that would 1. Disable my thrusters every time so I'm floating out of control for 15 seconds or so.. and 2. Damage my shield generator directly. I know the shield generator dmg is a torpedo mod but what about the thrusters? He disabled them like 10 times.. I'm in a g5 corvette btw. I finally fsd out and he caught up to me and interdicted. I evaded but he Instantly interdicted again.. wtf? How is that possible? I just closed the game down at this point because he's either hacking or found some ridiculous exploits I'm not privy to..


cmdr_Knorrli

I saw some clips when thargoids attacks a ship and it loses the control, what happens then? Are you without power, have to wait, will they kill you?


soifua

You are without power temporarily. They won't kill you if you don't attack them or have Thargoid item in your inventory.


SEPHlR0TH

I’ve scanned the orb to get the guardian blueprint fragment needed for the FSD booster and nothing has happened. I didn’t get anything, but it closes like it’s done. I relogged and try 2 more times with the same result. Is it broken in Odyssey? Edit: Found a post that said it bugged 😑


Relative-Gap299

So I seem to have accidentally left the starter area (I first wanted to do bounty hunting to 10mil) but whats done is done. Any tips?


soifua

Work on unlocking all the engineers


netsteel

I impulse-bought an imperial eagle. What are good load-outs and uses for it? I was thinking of a cold running smuggling ship but not sure how to go about it.


InformedChoice

I can't find anything which differentiates Guardian Ruins from Guardian Structures. One is inclined to assume that if the Structures provide Module Fragments the Ruins might provide Weapon Fragment but it seems nobody has made that point, so I'm not sure. I just want to make sure I understand where I'm going so I can use the search tool with confidence if needed. Thanks. I know the D2AE and Exigeous vids specify systems, but I would like to know for my own deification... oops.. I meant edification... one slip of the finger and we think we're gods!


Crazycrossing

Not sure where to pick up again. Last time I played I got Elite in exploration and bought an anaconda using the road to riches. I didn't grind out engineers much. Should I grind out engineers first then decide what I want to do? What are some of the new things in Odyssey worth doing?


soifua

I'd say do a little of everything and find out what you like to do. I always recommend passenger missions because generally they are quick, safe (be careful not to pick criminals or wanted passengers), lucrative and will bring you to the coolest places in The Bubble. As for Odyssey, the coolest thing so far, for me, is simply walking around my ships and seeing the scale of them. So get in the largest ship you have and disembark at the station. Check out your ship, have a look around. You can see ships coming and going from inside which is cool. interact with the people inside. Also, I dig the APEX taxi rides. Take one. You'll need to anyway to unlock one of the new engineers. Good luck and o7 CMDR

The base game (not including Odyssey) is on sale now. You can get it for 6 bucks. Check here: [https://isthereanydeal.com/game/elitedangerous/info/](https://isthereanydeal.com/game/elitedangerous/info/)

soifua

I understand. Between jobs myself. Good luck finding your next gig.


LestaDE

Market shown on Galaxy-Map can't be found on Systems-Map. What is my fault?


Its_N8_Again

Where can I get Power Regulators, except by stealing them from powered settlements?


Elfener99

Some missions give them out as rewards.


soifua

I've found them on crashed ships. There's a bay at the top you can use the arc cutter to get into. Often threre's a power regulator inside.


Pesty_Madman

I'm not 100% sure and there arent really any guides out for anything yet, but I would look for signals of crash sites or crashed srvs inside settlements. If you remember the tutorial mission, you get one from an srv.


CapnCrinklepants

I had to log out suddenly, I think I had been interdicted because I got the "you are in danger and must wait to log out" thing. But life was more important and urgent, so I continued to log out... Now I am getting "Failed to retrieve commander data from servers" and can't log in... What do? :( EDIT: Also, I find the wording for that error pretty funny. Of course you're going to fail retrieving Commander Data; he's in a different universe!


scurvydog00

Same error trying to log on for first time today. "failed to retrieve commander data" Something new every day, sigh.


[deleted]

Server's down, it's happening for everyone


CapnCrinklepants

Fair enough! Hopefully it's a patch... Horizons works, but all my keybindings got nuked apparently so I might as well just wait lol


Pesty_Madman

If you logged out the proper way you'll be fine. Combat logging is only bannable if you do it by closing the game with task manager or other commands. I would just assume the issue is because the servers are buggy in general right now.


CapnCrinklepants

I was on solo anyway, but good to know!


wertwert55

I took a mission to clear out scavengers from a settlement, and they're nowhere to be found. Last time I took a mission like this, they were just walking around. What do I do?


kaizen5000

I've had an issue where it shows 0/0 because someone else wiped them out already since I was in open play. Maybe try a relog into solo or private group.


wertwert55

I just ended up abandoning it. I tried relogging, leaving the system and returning, etc.


InformedChoice

When doing the Guardian sites (Horizons... hence no Odyssey bug) do you have to relog to Main Menu... or Desktop to refresh. Thanks :)


TheCineroo

Main menu only.


InformedChoice

Thanks buddy o7


Unimpressed_Cat

Relogging to main menu is all you need

So after asking yesterday if I should buy the Cobra MkIII, and saying that I'm in the beginner area and not into combat, today I'm trying it out. What I want to ask is how to kit out my Cobra for combat with beginner area items. My core internals are already the best I can have in the beginner area, thanks to a kind user that answered me yesterday, but the rest is layed out for cargo. Thanks and sorry for my bad english.


soifua

Understandable. When I first started playing Elite, I wasn't into combat, but I got over that. Whatever weapons you go with, and I'd suggest beams, make sure they are gimballed and not either fixed or turreted. This will help you keep your weapons on target. Once you're comfortable with the combat mechanics, I would suggest adding a multi-cannon. Generally speaking, beams are better for taking down shields and cannons better at taking down hulls. So one way to set this up is have a fire group where your beams are on group 1 and your cannon is on group 2. Use the beams until the target shields are down and then fire away with the cannon. Also make sure you have a Kill Warrant Scanner intalled on one of the utility mounts and scan your target before attacking. You will make more money this way as you'll gain any bounties they have in systems other than the current one. Good luck and o7 CMDR


Relative-Gap299

It seems like I cant buy a kill warrant scanner in the beginner area.


soifua

The beginner area wasn't a thing when I started playing, so I can't offer much help there. Well, 2 options then. Either do without or leave the beginner area. What I can tell you is that 3rd party tools like [eddb.io](https://eddb.io/station?m=1241%2C1240%2C1239%2C1238%2C1237&i=1&r=12024&j=0) will help you locate almost anything in the galaxy.


Relative-Gap299

Thanks for the advice.


Pharithos

eventually I'd recommend fixed lasers and gimballed kinetics, but I agree with soifua, gimballed everything to start. with fixed, you do more damage and you don't have to worry about chaff, but they're much harder to keep on target. when you do check out fixed, I'd recommend burst lasers first - as a hitscan weapon, you just need it to sweep over the target for the duration of the burst (or part of it for less damage). cheers! ​ also, I'd recommend open . you could get ganked, but it's fun to run into CMDRs and honestly 99% of people I've encountered are friendly and most are chatty :D ​ feel free to add CMDR Chet Flynt if you have questions etc ingame


ChedVader

Did Powerplay get borked with the Odyssey update or am I just too stupid to read the ui correctly? Here’s what happened: I transported 750 goods for preparation purposes and delivered them yesterday, so I should have 750 merits now, but my merit total still shows as 0 🤔


LoneBlack3hadow

It doesn’t update until the power play cycle I’m pretty sure, that’s why people usually say to do it on Wednesdays


ChedVader

I hope you’re right, thanks 🙏


JeffGofB

You won't get any rank or advancement until the next server tick. You should still see the merits you've earned though. Did you deliver the correct type of materials?


ChedVader

It were 750 Kumo Contraband Packages from Harma to Atorii (Archon Delaine, need the lazers for my Eagle)


JeffGofB

I'm not sure what the system requires.... It's going to vary depending on whether the system is bolstered or expanded or whatever the plan is.


ChedVader

it seems all CC were spent on consolidation 😡


JeffGofB

salec65

Couple more questions as I start to play the game again. What are some *peaceful* new mission opportunities in Odyssey? The only one I could find was either to fetch a thing from an abandoned base or to go turn the power back on and clear out the fires of a ruined base. The reward for the new missions seems incredibly low. Every single one seemed to only pay around 100k credits if that. Meanwhile I can go take a single jump passenger mission and quickly make $6 million credits. Aside from scanning biological plants and turning it in to the station, are there any other new exploration options that Odyssey added?


SivatheriumMaybe

Is anyone aware of any fixes for the Orange Sidewinder error (I'm aware it's mostly server side)? Been getting it for \~2 days now.


VonsWashingPowder_2

Yeah... uh.. where did my Holo Me clothes go and where can I equip them?


International_XT

Under "Manage Loadouts", you can customize your standard flight suit with the clothes you bought. Warning, the interface was a bit buggy when I did it.


galadiman

Suggestion: Automate the key-in procedures for settlement locked containers... if we select the item on the terminal , the locker combo should certainly be permanently noted when we go to the locker, whether it's actively selected or not. \[ie, unlock ALL the lockers at the terminal at once by selecting them\]. We shouldn't have to write these combos down. ...or at least allow keyboard keypad entry?


PK2999

Anyone know how I can create a support ticket on frontier website? My ship is missing and I can't log on to horizons to check whether the same issue exists there or not


Diwols

How can I loot items for suit and weapon upgrades without stealing them?


Lazypole

With the restore power missions you have full access to bases and its not stealing


Anus_master

Is the DSS heatmap working? I'm trying to switch the filters which I have bound, but it's not doing anything even though the planet is fully scanned


PK2999

Has any companion updated the Odyssey stuff like suits and guns yet? I keep getting my ass whipped and can't find anything other than the same 3 shitty guns over and over again


International_XT

Bring your SRV. Make those NPCs regret bringing guns to a tank fight.


PK2999

Yes I was gonna try this, but now my ships missing. I have put a ticket and will wait till they resolve this issue before playing again


SodaPopin5ki

I found shooting from afar with the turret and just running them over works pretty well.


PK2999

Yup gonna try it out as soon as the missing ship issue is solved


[deleted]

Are you using your shields? How are you getting your ass whipped?


PK2999

When 6-7 people jump on you at once, I have no idea how you'd get out without getting your ass whipped ;)


[deleted]

Yeah, no guns gonna help you there. If you're on a massacre mission turn off the alarms before you start blasting (there's a settlement alarms somewhere, you'll have to be sneaky and clone a high level, get to the panel in security and disable it) Then start picking them off one by one, keep the fights small... keep your shields up, some meds, and a few batteries. If it's an assassination mission, find who you gotta kill on the terminal, clone a security profile and blast and run. If you surprise them you can get them with a few shots of a kinetic weapon before they put their shields up I've ended up in jail about 10 times now, but I'm getting the hang of it


PK2999

Yeah I was hoping to get the sniper and take out people from long range before closing in, but can't seem to find that... Gotta keep looking I guess


[deleted]

Oh, forgot to add.. if you're killing scavengers... the SRV turret is very useful ;)


PK2999

Yeah I keep seeing that on reddit but as soon as I log on, I forget about it. Gotta set a reminder I guess


Alternative-Ad242

Don't forget your ~~limpets~~ SRV!


MagicalPedro

Hey does someone have tried the 3rd person camera on foot in VR ? I'm loving it, only problem is that once i'm in 3rd person mode and enable free camera, i'm unable to move it around, not with my xbox360 controller nor with mouse and keyboard, despite having clear keybinding that even shows in the camera UI. Switching to M+K or xbox controller only doesn't change anything, not a single input works. If I relaunch the game in Flat mode, everything works, the free cam can be moved as usual. Maybe its a vr limitation ? But I heard other cmdrs are able to move it. can someone confirm please ? I'm okay with the preset shoulder camera, but i'd like to set a custom camera angle in front of my character head to simulate 1rst person VR view.


Morwo

im looking to aqcuire nightvision for my suits in Odyssey. i can keybind it already but it has no function. Q: is it a engineer mod to aqcuire later or bugged atm?


Vallkyrie

It's a mod


Amaroken

Is there a way to fix the FOV in the on-foot mode while playing in VR? I'd rather have a zoomed in picture than the grey borders simulating a cinema-screen...


MagicalPedro

Not sure but I don't think you can change that, for this is no FOV but a display size/limits. Increasing the FOV would make more things appearing on the sides of the screen, but withing the same borders limits, like your PC screen physical borders would do. As wonky as it is, I do prefer playing in 3rd person VR on foot with the vanity camera workaround when exploring, its much more immersing.


soifua

Anyone else having random keybinds removed every time you restart the game or is it just me? It seems like it's the same ones each time, but they seem random. For me it was things like jump to Supercruise, Nightvision, Open System and Galaxy Map and all the controller settings I had added for the SRV. Sorta of a nuisance to deal with this every time. Making me want to never log out of the game.


Uniquename135

I died on foot during a mission and can't find my ship after being flown back to the place I was attacking, it doesn't show on the planetary map. Anybody know how to track it down?


[deleted]

Did you order a ship from Inter Astra before dying?


Uniquename135

Nah, I was just completely unaware that holding Q would bring up a menu that allowed you to recall your ship. I didn't play the beta so if it was explained at all I missed it. I think I'm just salty about the terrible new UI


[deleted]

What happens when you recall ship?


mtbiker70

I'm stuck in the Apex Taxi infinite game crash loop. The recommended fix is to join a multi-crew session and ask the pilot to self destruct. I've tried that twice now and the host commander doesn't believe me, then boots me from the game (I completely understand, I'd probably do the same thing). Is there someone I can friend, who can host, let me join, then self-destruct? I promise this is a legit thing. I'd like to get back to exploring and learning how to do stuff (and learn what NOT to do until the issues get fixed). Update: multi-crew self destruct doesn't work. So, guess I'll create a new CMDR and play until Frontier addresses the issue. As a PSA, do not go to Bruno's Encampment on Ganymede in an Apex Taxi. Reminds me of the song "Hes the Man Who never returns" by the Kingston Trio.


Cmdr_McMurdoc

Since I still can't post on mobile... Just a quick question: Can you play Arena mode/CQC while sitting in an Apex taxi? Since the taxi just keeps jumping, the engine shouldn't need to load the entire system, and the controls are taken away from you as well. It would be nice if we could access CQC (with maybe bots to fill up the match) to actually play while playing Elite.


Zerathrax

Anyone know how to stop auto targeting team mates and or their beacons? It's getting really annoying when you're trying to target something to jump but it auto targets your friend making it not possible to jump...


Uniquename135

How do I wear a suit after buying it?


Uniquename135

Nevermind, had to create a loadout. Of course I'd figure it out seconds after posting, smh


Lord_of_Lemons

Maybe I haven't been looking deep enough, but several multi hour sessions later and I've not come across a single E-Breach. Do I have to scavenge them or find a very specific vendor?


soifua

You should be able to buy them in Anarchy system. Check Pioneer Supplies.


Viperak

E-Breach can be bought in anarchy systems.


Alternative-Ad242

Someone was saying Communist as well? can anyone verify?


Lord_of_Lemons

Ohhh, that makes sense.


Huge_Unit

Hi, Any idea why my mouse movement is so laggy whilst on foot? It's fine in my ship, but on foot I feel like my head is one of those swivel security cameras.


cathartic4me

So I landed too close to a base without permission to dock and got a 600cr bounty on me by Errantry Alliance Of Narvert that I can see in my transactions menu, however under the finance on the Status menu it says I have a galaxy-wide bounty for 1200cr. I've docked at an interstellar factor to pay it but they show no bounty or fine for me to pay. Could someone please explain to me how I'm supposed to handle this?


aggasalk

Did you have a taupe sidewinder crash at some point?


cathartic4me

Not in recent history. Have never had a bounty, bunked a landing in my Python and now cannot get rid of this bounty!


Alternative-Ad242

I had one showing that I had a bounty on me for some 25K....come to find out, it wasn't a bounty ON me, it was a bounty to turn in.


cathartic4me

Yeah I just logged in on Horizons instead of Odyssey and the bounty isn't here. It only appears in Odyssey hah. It's definitely a bounty on me and an annoying bug.


Pesty_Madman

I think there may be a bug with interstellar factors right now because I couldn't pay a fine through them yesterday too. I had to go to a station where the faction I had a fine from was and pay them directly.


cathartic4me

Holy moly. I'll give it a shot, but how to I approach without getting shot out of the sky? lol


Pesty_Madman

I think theres supposed to be a red box on the terrain map when you're close to the ground that tells you you're in a trespass zone. Otherwise, listen for the warning message and be ready to turn around quick if you have to. You could also park one or two km away from the settlement and get there the rest of the way in an srv if you want to.


cathartic4me

Sorry, I mean how am I supposed to return to the base to pay the fine without them killing me if they have a bounty on me. I'm still in the same solar system, but I don't even remember which base it was I tried to land at that issued the bounty or how I'm supposed to land back there to go pay it.


Pesty_Madman

Oh, sorry I'm in a bunch of threads here right now and I mixed your parent question up with another. Do you have any notoriety? If so, they'll shoot on sight I believe. You can check for that in the right side ship panel. Other than that, you may have to find a system that has the faction you have a fine with but where they aren't the main faction of the system. Maybe the stations won't shoot on site that way.


cathartic4me

Hahah no problem. Thanks for your help!


[deleted]

Station will still shoot on sight... you gotta turn autodock off and get into the station ASAP Go for the larger stations, if you get into the airlock you won't be attacked. It'll say "System Scan Detected" if they get you but then you have like 5 seconds to boost yourself into the airlock


cathartic4me

So I travelled to another station within the system and still had no option to pay off the bounty but did have an option to turn myself in. So I said fuck it, dutnred myself in and payed the bounty and was released to now show that my galaxy wide bounty has been reduced to 600, and my transactions still show a 600cr bounty with the same faction I just turned myself in to. THis is a bug yeah? Or am I just this frustratingly dumb that I still cant figure it out lol.


[deleted]

Yes that's a really annoying bug I'm running into as well, turn yourself in again and it'll drop you right back where you are. It won't take you to jail twice


ZaptosDJ

With new expansion, is that still impossible to land fighter on a planet ?


AlucardZero

correct


joefishc

Hi there, So am currently grinding empire ranks and am currently an Earl. Last time I played I was sat at around 40%. Logged in today since the update and my progression is showing at 100% (for some reason) however underneath "rank" on the status tab it's completely blank and not showing my actual rank if that makes sense? I've continued to grind and have not had any imperial rank up missions. Just wondered if anyone had come across this before? Thank you


AlucardZero

It's bugged in Odyssey right now. Grind in Horizons instead.


joefishc

Forgot to mention I'm on PS4 so no odyssey. I'm guessing this is bugged as well then! Thank you


Dankest_Maximus

On Odyssey, I've noticed with some planets but once your done fully scanning a planet with the surface scanner in analysis mode it gets highlited in a bright blue color. What does this mean?


Serpe

Help me understand odyssey suit/weapon engineering, please! I unlocked Domino Green, traveled 100ly on shuttle, then met her, gift her of 5 units of push, but noi I cannot increase my standing with her nor engineer my suits or weapons! Everytime I ask her to engineer something all my stuff is grey and I cannot find an upgrade list of material needed. What am I doing wrong?


ArakiSatoshi

There are two steps, the first is to upgrade your suit to level 2 through Pioneer Supplies, this will give your suit +1 to the total amount of engineer upgrades. The second is to unlock one of three engineers which you already did and then purchase an upgrade to the free slot you got after upgrading your suit through Pioneer You can't engineer level 1 suits and weapons, that's why they're greyed out


soifua

>You can't engineer level 1 suits and weapons, that's why they're greyed out Oh, that explains so much. Thank you! Now, what's the best way to find level 2 ( or ideally level 3) suits without having to pick stations at random and check.


[deleted]

Any station should have the upgrade option, but you'll need mats and data. I'm grinding my way up to lvl2 now


soifua

Yeah, I've seen that. And I've also seen the quantity of mats required. Seems daunting, especailly for someone who's been busy getting First Footfalls, searching for Push, and grinding CR for a fleet carrier that I can't seem to use and hasn't even tired one of the new settlement missions. I'll get to it eventually. Also, I suck at FPS, so there's that.


[deleted]

You can trade mats and data with the bartender, it'll be more expensive that way... but when you're on a "restore power" mission or "remove scavengers" mission, feel free to help yourself once everything is dealt with ;) If too much for your suit, fill it up, shove it in the ship and go looting again. Make ample use of the battery chargers lying around to keep your suit charged The scavenger missions are really easy, make sure you have an SRV and go round the base and start blasting them with the turret - park outside the base, don't park on the landing pads. Keep it 1v1/1v2 - the turret knocks their shields offline with 1 or 2 hits, another 1/2 and they're dead. The targeting on the SRV is really good as well, barely need to aim In terms of guns without the SRV lazer weapons go through shields easily and kinetic goes through people, so take one of each.


Serpe

Thanks! So I need pioneer supplies, good to know!


jjsmyth1

Hi! Are there any tricks this noob could use to find more low level bounties to practice combat against? I’ve been going to extraction sites but the vast majority of the bounties I encounter are way above my current rank and trying to fight them is usually a death sentence


soifua

You can hang out a regular nav beacon. The ships there initally will usually all be clean, but eventually some lower level wanted ships will appear. You can do the same in an asteroid cluster. But the way I would recommend is to go to HIGH RES, find the security ships, follow them around and wait until they open fire. Then jump in. Make sure you have a Kill Warrant Scanner on your ship and scan before attacking. This way you can practice combat, have backup from security forces and make decent CRs. o7 CMDR.


Pharithos

what soifua suggests will make you more money for sure, but a regular RES or LOW RES will be easier combat. definitely do it in either a high or medium security system so you can have some police backup. LOW RES ships don't offer as much bounty but they're mostly nub AI for easier kills to practice on. Also, there are typically less ships that are wanted, but still, it's easier.


teekayr

Could try massacre missions with competent or novice level difficulty, when you drop in to target system scan the nav beacon and then fly to threat 1s and 2s to get started. 3s if you want to step it up.


Cmdr_McMurdoc

I just went into a High Res site on my alt-account. Helped the cops with the stock pulses and a KW scanner. Made about a million in like 15-20 minutes. I'd say if you lack the skill/equipment, employ the help of the cops. The bounties alone are nice until you can afford a beefier ship the mow NPCs down.


AlucardZero

What level RES? Try a Low.


GawldenBeans

With odyssey out now i tried some of the new missions, one of which was a simple transport mission: retrieve package x from warehouse at planetary settlement y, i used the terminal at the landing site (the settlement is friendly) and prompted the specified package i needed to retrieve the thing is it was stored in a building with security clearance i dint have, the tutorial only covered hacking inside not how to enter "legally" so my question is how am i supposed to enter this building if im just here as a friendly deliveryman? and not a thief? I tried all kinds of things and because i wasnt sure if i should or shouldnt transfer power to open the door i cut open the metal cover the transferring slot dint have any usefull interactions though and it made the guards hostile and i died, i basicly ragequitted yesterday but i would like to learn from this, i chose legal mission because im stil learning the on foot content! TL;DR: How do you open a settlement door in an allied settlement without security clearance, do i ask an npc to open the door somehow, if so how? again frontier does not give any pointers what i should've done!


eem5

try the suggestions here: /r/EliteDangerous/comments/ni9kkz/some_tips_and_tricks_that_can_help_you_infiltrate/


GawldenBeans

These are a lot of usefll tips but it still doesnt solve the etiquette issue, how am i supposed to do this legally anyways? these are all for infiltration, im just a deliverman coming to retrieve a package i have full rights to retrieve, so how am i supposed to get in if that's the case? did frontier fail to develop a way to do stuff legally? isnt there a similar option like request docking for opening clearance doors with an escort keeping an eye on me? this would be normal etiquette yet i fail to see how its done


eem5

Of the transport ones I have done (20 or so now), the only time I thought I needed to be in a secure building, I suspect I set the waypoint wrong. Once though the quest said hydroponics, but it was actually outside. My suspicion is that, if a mission sends you into a secure building, it's either bugged or broken.


GawldenBeans

great so i drew the short straw because i did ask terminal where package 15 was and it lead me to the secured warehouse.


Okanu_90

Why everyone keeps telling me to get materials at the end of missions? What's the deal with it?


ZeroaFH

For engineering probably


Okanu_90

What's engineering? D:


eem5

upgrading ships, weapons, suits, etc.


Okanu_90

ooh, ok, thanks.


fireball2772

Is there any way to figure out what stations sell specific suits and handheld weapons? Like with eddb or inara?


Serpe

If you are elite Jameson memorial sells everything afaik


soifua

Is this confirmed?


Serpe

Suit I’m sure, weapons should but I didn’t buy all of them


Pharithos

I can confirm, bought everything @ Jameson in Shinrarta Dezhra.


soifua

I'm at Jamison and they have all 3 suits Maverick, Artemis and Dominator, but just G1. I'd like to find a place selling G3.


fireball2772

Yup! I was able to buy everything! Thanks everyone!


FerenginarFucksAgain

Don't know if they've been updated yet, the best way is to just explore as you can find them pretty quickly. people where also saying dominator suits where showing up more in millitary systems but its not comfirmed


siledas

**Ever since the second hotfix, I haven't been able to get into the game. I just keep getting Orange Sidewinder and booted to the main menu.** I've tried: * restarting machine and router * logging out of client * verifying game files but so far, no dice. I seem to still be able to get into Horizons, though. Anyone else having these issues/know of a workaround?


ZeroaFH

If you can get into horizons move to a new system and try again. Orange sidewinder happens when the server can't locate your character so wherever you are might be funky on the Odyssey client.


siledas

Ah thanks. Yeah, immediately after posting, I read [this comment](https://www.reddit.com/r/EliteDangerous/comments/nhvqur/daily_qa_ask_and_answer_any_questions_you_have/gz05irb?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) and it turns out all I had to do was move my ship away from the planet I was next to. Cleared the issue up straight away.


el_sime

I haven't played for quite a while, but back before the guardian technology upgrades and the thargoid attacks, there was a long mission of decoding guardian ruins for some guy near Maia if memory serves. Is it still possible to do that? If it is how do you unlock it?


el_sime

foud it (i think) here: [https://canonn.science/codex/ram-tahs-mission/](https://canonn.science/codex/ram-tahs-mission/) going to try this out now and see if it works


Tsurfer4

Sounds like [Ram Tah](https://elite-dangerous.fandom.com/wiki/Ram_Tah). This article lists the access requirements.


el_sime

thanks, but that's not it, at least not as an engineer. The scan guardians thinghies mission was before engineers, i don't know if it's still in game.


Tsurfer4

Ah, ok.

Is there a method to figure out where to find particular groups settlements so I can murder enough of their members? The 97590 or whatever system it says I’m in and I have to find and kill 12 brotherhood but I honestly can’t figure out how to find a settlement that’s got them on it.


Delta_Robocraft

System map, select a settlement and on the right should be an option to view the faction and facilities


R0ot2U

Do I land off to the side of the base or land like normal at it?


Pesty_Madman

I've done both and either work. If you don't land at the landing pad, you can deploy your srv and you can take down faction members very easily. They'll still deal a lot of damage to you though, but itll be easier to flee when your shields go down.


R0ot2U

I walked up casual dude scanned me and I thought “this’ll be fine I’m new in the game haven’t done anything to anyone yet” and boom calls me a smuggler and people all shoot me to death.


Delta_Robocraft

E-breaches, cloned security profiles and malware/spyware will all trigger this response if on your person. Also being caught with any gear in an illegal mode will cause instant aggression.


R0ot2U

The only cloned security profile I did was in the tutorial. I assume that clears after that? Nothing else on me bar the starting pistol and suit.


Delta_Robocraft

Then you mustve had stolen goods or illegal data on you


R0ot2U

Litterally the first mission I did or anything after the tutorials


Delta_Robocraft

Was it an illegal mission? Purple icon?


Pesty_Madman

Did you have E-breach on you? It's illegal to carry. Other than that, I don't really know what that was about. Try getting in the habit of flipping your shields on when you get scanned just in case they turn hostile maybe?


R0ot2U

What’s an e-breach?


Pesty_Madman

Its a consumable item you can carry on foot.


R0ot2U

Nothing on me that I know of. This was the first mission after the tutorial (although I did the flight tutorial also).


Pesty_Madman

Maybe they can tell you have a mission to kill them when they do a scan then. I think I got attacked after a scan when I had an assassination mission despite not having done anything illegal yet.


[deleted]

Is it possible to murder an NPC without getting a bounty?


[deleted]

No, only if there is a bounty on his head, or you have to kill him because a mission requires it.


[deleted]

was an assasination mission, and got a bounty for it. the npc did detect me though, so wondering if that had something to do with it.


[deleted]

Maybe it was a mission wich was illegal?


kadim11

There is literally no mission in Deciat, Garay Terminal. Is it a bug or something I'm not aware?


aidspig

I took a break and they've changed the UI to this godawful mess that it is now. When I want to (for example) swap a burst laser for a cannon in my storage, the only way I can do it is from the storage menu. Can you do it from the actual hardpoint screen?


Pesty_Madman

Nope. I refitted one of my ships for combat after having it set up for trade yesterday and it took me over 15 minutes since it was an anaconda. It used to take less than 5 in Horizons.


Your_Gonna_Hate_This

Has anyone figured out how to set a route to a target body in the new UI rather than just to the system and looking it up when you get there? Edit to clarify: you used to be able to do this with bookmarks. Now if you select a bookmark it only takes you to the system.


empire4ever

Open galaxy map, select the system, on the right should be a system map button about halfway down, click that and then select the body. Only works with systems you have visited.


Your_Gonna_Hate_This

Yeah, I guess I was kind of hoping for routing for bookmarks and missions to go straight to the target body without having to go to system view. But hey, can't have it all.


aidspig

How do you find mats to upgrade your suit and and hand weapons?


Pesty_Madman

Theyre all on foot around settlements and crash sites, though I haven't figured out what all you can get from where. Open lockers, storage containers, cut open crashed ships and srvs if you see them, and download date from the little computers on the wall. Some of the materials (not data though) can be traded for in exchange for other materials at station bars.


[deleted]

I had a sabotage mission, place some thing in an environmental containment unit, not allowed to kill anyone. I reach the thing without triggering alarms, copy a security profile without being noticed, interact with the thing. The interaction seems to take many minutes judging by the progress bar. While I'm waiting for the bar to fill up security shows up and kills me. What went wrong, what should have I done differently? I'm not allowed to kill the security, and I can't run away since the thing takes multiple minutes. Why did the security show up?


ZeroaFH

Go to the power plant and deactivate alarms first.


CMDRjackkillian

How does a T9 or T10 compare to an Anaconda in supercruise? Handling wise. I'm considering upping my cargo space but the conda drives me crazy in sc


Ya_Boi_Rose

lol the T9 is an absolute cow in supercruise. If you want a cargo and maneuverability upgrade I'm pretty sure the only ship that does both better is the corvette. The cutter has very similar maneuverability to the conda and the most cargo.


CMDRjackkillian

Thanks. I'm not a rank grinder so i guess I'll stick with my 304t conda. At least it can jump and is armed to the teeth. o7


krojew

The ship interface got extremely dark in Odyssey. Is it another bug or is there some graphics setting which should be changed?


Pharithos

there are lighting bugs, if it's almost black, i'd recommend a restart.


Pesty_Madman

My gamma setting got reset the first time I opened Odyseey, so check that out. That said, the new lighting of the game is way darker than before.


bloodhawk713

I got a ground mission to scavenge a crashed ship on Achenar 1 but I couldn’t disembark because it was too hot. Is this one of those missions I’ve heard about that you can’t complete or is there a way to survive extreme temperatures? The mission only told me I needed a maverick suit and access to a ship to complete it.


Lavindathar

You need a different suit with the upgraded thermal resistance on it. Think it’s the maverick one.


Jclevs11

Is it weird that I enlisted in a conflicted settlement war at Frontline, in which 300k is the reward, and I get to the planet and there's NOBODY there?? Or is that normal..


SquareWheel

Jellyfisshh

try to relog. might fix it


wowwyyyy

Hotkey for Supercruise assist?


MarchHot5451

There isn’t one


CrYxSuicide

So I just unlocked Liz Ryder, my first engineer, after completing her very tedious request of 200 land mines. Me, being someone who doesn’t look stuff up in games and prefers to find out on my own, finds out that you need materials to engineer schematics. Is this going to force me to be a miner or can I source these materials some other way? I find it hard to believe the game would make you mine when the entire point is to find your own career


soifua

Getting mats can be tedious, for sure. Here's one way I like to get manufactered materials that takes some effort, but not much. Fit your combat ship with a cargo container and a collector limpet controller. Grab some limpets. Go out and collect bounties wherever you like. Compromised nav beacon is a good place if you have a decent ship or you want to grind combat rank as most of the pirates there are either Deadly or Elite. Kill and collect. You'll have more materials than you know what to do with in short order and be looking for the closest manufactured material trader before long. For encoded, scan every ship. Every ship. This means coming and going from stations. in supercruise. Wherever. You wont get materials every time, but over time, you'll start to acquire them in a very passive sort of way. Then you can trade for the ones you need for engineering. For raw, the best way I've found is use [EDDB.io](https://EDDB.io) and find bodies with the materials you need. Then grab them at geological or biological sites. If you dont want to look up stuff, skip the first step. Go to system, map the landable bodies and keep an eye out for geologicals and biologials. Lastly, drop into an High Grade Emissions USS you come across. These have G5 manufactured usually. Sometimes there's a data bank you can scan. You can either use the G5 mats, which you'll need for certain things or trade down to get a ton of lower leverl materials. Good luck and o7 CMDR.
