Nickel

[0sa74]

Hello, please let me know where to get nickel apart from containers and old bases. Are there any asteroid fields containing nickel?

[kane]

There is a ton of them a few in the broken domes and a lot behind the silver asteroids just go up over the rock.

[Mrs-D]

There is a mass amount of nickel asteroids behind the place on the very far left and behind the big asteroid mine.

The spot people are trying to point you to is on the other side of the Theta-9 base where the crew quarters are. You'll need either a vehicle or a lot of O2 cannisters to make that trip if you're in very early game. Once you have a vehicle though, it's quick and easy to get there and there's more nickle than you could possibly need.

Yeah, someone else posted about this as well as provided the coordinates (which are visible when you hit esc). There is a substantial amount of nickel there.

Could you provide these coordinates because either something is wrong with me or I'm not flying in this direction beyond the Theta Base. I fly 2-3 minutes to the left behind the tela base and I don't see anything.

Go past Theta-9 base and hug the asteroid to the right - you'll come out over the Theta-9 Depot dome

There's a metric buttload of nickel asteroids right there that can be harvested manually or with a corridor miner, and a giant quartz deposit asteroid for deposit mining just off to the side

Note: They don't look the same as others such as silver or gold. They just look kind of like copper coloured rocks.

You know where the deadly red cave is at, so fly up from there and over the ridge that would be behind the red cave and you will find and entire field of nickle.

red cave I am already going even creature attack also me explore have not niket even use scan have nothing wrong know well have bugs in games like games enticiper

Go to the Red Cave, but don't go in. Go up over the top and then further up over the string of mottled blue rock. BEHIND that is where the Nickel Cloud is located. This Nickel respawns when the game is reloaded. I placed a Corridor and Corridor Miner there and just have to visit the Site to restock my Nickel if/when my base runs low.

Now if only I could find enough Iridium to build the Toxic Suit. Then I could hit up additional Iridium in the Toxic Green Clouds and locate the Base hidden in there... I've seen an external image of it from a "distance" in a You Tube video, but never yet seen the inside of it.

me test portal jump 1 not u problem 2 not u problem wanted to return base crash

[ossied]

Their is plenty of nickel if you continue over the top of red stuff tunnel , their is a hole with loot in it then a dome behind it above that dome is silver, if you go to left and over the ridge in between the 2 large riods with blue goo on top you will find another dome with nickel above it.

is there a nickel deposit for the asteroid miner?

Not currently that I'm aware of. However, if you warp there appears to be a couple of potential future deposits that appear like they might be nickel in an update.
