Trying to find dungeons...... or I am just lame!

[ziguezigue]

Evening folks, really loving the game and am just over lvl 10 with pilot and soldier and around 4 with explorer.
I have tried to find dungeons on a few planets and come up zip. I go to the pits, lairs and salvage yards but not a bad guy in sight. I have found some baddies near a few of those but nothing in them. Do you have to be on a mission to get mobs there or am I missing something very basic?

The different areas that I have tried have been a range of levels to just below mine or equal certainly a few above (yes even WAYYYYYY above LOL)

Tips? Hints? Or am I missing something very basic?
Thanks in advance,
cheers :-)

Try Merc missions. you will get plenty of FPS style encounters.

I had a "pit" (not quite sure, sorry) area with only one and really unremarkable door, leading to a multilevel (8+) dungeon with several bosses and lootboxes at many level transisitions. On the surface nobody hinders me to get inside so you might just overlooked the door.

perhaps more are planned. this is early alpha.

Pits are just mines - there's nothing there but ore deposits. Lairs I don't know - I've only done 2 of those, and my pockets were full of rare ore before I got to Lv3 both times.

Salvage Yards... Can't imagine how you have NO enemies - they're always occupied for me. Not many, granted, but somewhere around 1-2 dozen between the first 2 levels. Some of them have 3 levels - the third has a boss. My first had a flame thrower, teleportation, and a cloning ability - I barely survived that one, but he was Lv40 and I was at about 7 at the time. ;) Loot for those is both drops, and (usually) 2 red chests with a light beam coming off them. Depending on dungeon level, you should net somewhere north of a million bucks selling it off.

BTW - for me enemies only appear out of ship, don´t know if that´s clear

To be honest I haven't tried many of the Warp to locations so I don't know if you will find the content I mention here at Planet warp to villages, yards etc.

Land on a Planet, activate your Hoverbike from your ship via "H" and selecting you ship.

Jump on the Hoverbike and go in any direction. Eventually you will see objects in the distance, some quite small - those can be traders which can be VERY worthwhile. For the dungeons you want the larger objects which are tin buildings usually on fire, sometimes with a crane.

Each building will have 4 enemy NPCs to kill. Inside you'll find a loot box and an NPC which will give you a mission.
1) Rescue my child which is usually a village rescue.
2) Messenger who want revenge - this mission will have a dungeon which starts at a small location of buildings. Kill the overground NPCs that spawn - 10 or so - then enter the main open fronted building. On the ground floor on the Left hand side by the stairs you'll see a door. Enter the door and you exit a lift underground. Loot the level killing the enemy NPC's and find the next lift down. Keep going down each level, eventually you will exit into a level which is low light or smokey atmosphere. Follow the only route around and stairs if any - you will enter a room that is not smokey. This will be a boss fight. This boss fight may not be the end goal of the mission. You can keep going down level after level meeting many bosses. I think I got upto Level 15 having killed 5 bosses on the way and decided not to risk any further. You will not be able to save whilst in the Dungeon and hence risk all the loot you gather.

everything besides cities, villages and salvage sites are dungeons, though there might not be door at every one, and also what was said above, the burning 4 man homes while flying near the ground have an npc that adds one(stopped trying these altogether, as my last run with an elite on F3-4 gave me perma dilation)

[ziguezigue]

Thanks for all the help, found the 4 baddies and little hut with NPC inside for quest but still lucking out on door in salvage yards. Will keep looking so probably unlucky but only done a small number.

Anyone know which dungeons are the legend ones or what they look like? Got the 4 stellar keys needed to open one but no idea if they are just called legend dungeon or outposts like the standard ones are. Can’t seem to find anything about it using search engine.
