Liquidators Expedition, Optional Mileestone Rewards

[NoPain]

Hello everyone! Could somebody please confirm if i can buy Liquidators Minotaurs Parts from Liquidator Expedition for mercury after i complete it? Cause it seems we're not gonna reach phase 5 (or just in case community do not finish it) Thanks in advance, and Merry christmas!

[Mr. Wiggles]

The community may still reach phase 5 -- Liquidators has only been up for a day or so, and we're already at ~36%. We have until January 8th to get to 100%.

As far as I can see if reading it right we are up to about 35% on phase one of five, we would then have another four phases to work through in that time, there again it could be just me reading it wrong.

You're reading it right, but it is now up to 43%, and the expedition has been active for less than 2 days, with one of those days being Christmas Day (which is not a very active day for gaming).

I'd say that is on pace to get them all completed by the end of the expedition, especially when you consider that the final week is likely to have more people playing it.

It's also worth pointing out that Hello Games tends to rig the deck in our favor. i.e. they tweak it if we aren't making progress quickly enough.

I'm sure HG will make any adjustment necessary to ensure we can finish the expedition successfully. They've made subtle changes previously to help us along.

I don't think you get them of you cut out of the Expedition early, also as others have said, it's only been 2 days, one being Christmas.

Also factor in the Sale price the game just went on & all the new players who either gifted it, got it AS A gift & I'd say just find something to do & chill.

I went & Made A weird base because I found another Gravity Planet while looking for Dissident Systems.

The Last one I made in the last expedition is still A Blast & alot of people seemed to get A kick out of Making A Colossus Fly, so I thought if I gotta stick around, may as well have A Game to play.

So Skeeball On A Gravity Storm Planet, or A Driving Range? not sure what to call it, except fun to build, fun to play in & functional for the Expedition & I can do my part blowing up Sentinels on my own Island base.

So go do what you wouldn't normally do, Blow up freighters left & right & make every race hate your guts & take the opportunity to go full Pirate, it doesn't effect the normal game & sit can be OH SO satisfying to blow some of those rude jerks to Dust & Ashes because they warped right next to me in open Freakin space & that warping THUMP goes of like 6-7 times right in my earholes!

Now the penalty for rudeness is DEATH!

The game is what you make of it friend, you paid the ticket price, enjoy the show & all it has to offer.

I gotta say that even though I love the expeditions, the Liquidator Expedition felt extremly unrewarding to go through. Felt like one big rinse and repeat, and just way to easy.

That's fair, I hadn't considered that.

Does anyone know if there's any benefit to the community to killing more than 50 horrors/sentinels/vile brood per phase?

These things always jump up over the weekend, you know, when most people have time to play.

yes. By continuing to kill horrors you are contributing to the overall progression. That 50 per phase is a personal requirement so that you still have to do something to get it even when it's complete.

It's at about 60% now, and on my screen it shows targets 4 and 5 as "achieved" somehow.

[PsyChrósResist0R]

The "Optional Milestone" isn't even showing up for me. Is there an NPC I'm supposed to visit? I don't recall ever having to do that.

NM. I found it. I have a back log of missions and quests that it got buried under. I do wish they'd fix mission focusing so it didn't deviate from the one selected until manually prompted to do so.

[Shadow Strider]

Just a reminder that the original liquidators expo had a daily contribution limit of 150 kills. I would imagine there is something similar in place this time too.
I would also imagine they have made the overall requirements smaller given the shorter expo duration.
(the figures weren't visible in game, but they were found within the code)

If I remember correctly, it takes a total of 250 kills to meet the minimum requirement to get the tier 5 reward once the community goal is met.

Although killing more than 150 horrors/sentinels/bugs per day doesn't help with the community goal, it will net you a nice haul of nanites upon ending the expo (I think it was 50 per kill last time, which is double the usual 25 you get in other expos)

Thanks for all replies guys! We are about %80 to reach phase 1 so hopefully we reach phase 5 at this increasing rate

It's running for 2 weeks, so it's a bit early to be concerned. I'm sure we'll make it.

New player here during the steam black week/november sale and i found my alternative to skyrim. But man...."go full pirate" is such a crazy and fun idea, since it will not effect your main save...

Thank you for the tip!
