Guardian sites

[Kamiyama]

I'm only interested in vessel and module blueprints. I don't care about the guardian weapons.

From what I understand, the blueprints are the hard ones to get. You have to go to specific planets to get a blueprint. The other guardian materials are general drops you can find at any guardian site?

From what I've read:

Guardian Vessel Blueprints:
Synuefe KU-F B44-4
Synuefe XR-H D11-102

Guardian Module Blueprints:
Synuefe GT-H B43-1 C 4
Synuefe NL-N C23-4 B3

Any other sites I should go? It looks like the Synuefe sector is the place to be.

I'm going to Shinrarta to buy an AspX and get it fitted for my guardian trip. Shield, cargo, SRV, point defense for shooting sentinels.

If there's anything else I should know, let me know.

Module blueprint: HD 63154

Weapon blueprint: COL 173 SECTOR HR-M B23-3

Ancient Key: SYNUEFE KU-F B44-4

Guardian Structure for the key: SYNUEFE EU-Q C21-15

Use the scans filters to zero in on specific sites:

I didn't know the guardian beacons were in space and you need lasers to charge them. I'm going to have to go back and get a laser now.

Once you're in system, how do you actually locate a beacon or planetary guardian site? I'm in Synuefe KU-F B44-4 now and I have a detailed scan on every landable planet and don't see anything.

I tried for an FSD booster but the drones kept knocking my SRV around and I exploded befor ei could finish the puzzle... I don't drive SRVs often lol.

[Kamiyama]

My AspX has 4 point defense on it. I'm hoping I can land on top of or right next to the site and have it nail anything that tries to fight me.

Are the sites detectable from space? It would be lame if you have to drive around the planet until you find ruins.

The planets are life-sized right? Couldn't you explore a planet in a SRV for years and not find everything?

The Beacons are in orbit. You should be able to see the POI in your nav panel within 1000 Ls. Ditto with the Structures (and Ruins) but they're on the surface. You don't need to do a detailed scan.

Knock yourself out with that grind.

Thanks! I'll have to pay attention to the nav panel when I get back.

I want the XG7 and the internal modules. I've already decided I'm going to skip all the weapons.

I'm not a fan of grind at all but I think the modules and fighter will be nice to have.

[Boots of Doom]

The fighters are pretty useless to be honest, I can see a use for them if you're thinking building medium-class anti-Thargoid builds, but not for much else. Some of the modules are OK, the FSD boost is a must have. Tip: the vessel Structure is considerably harder than the others with many more sentinels, I recommend doing the modules first to get the practice in.

[Felony Ferret]

The fighters are like the Guardian weapons, only good vs Thargoids. The modules are seemly more useful for every day pilots.

Put pips into shields and weapons, then go into turret mode and just shoot them while holding still. You can tank 1, usually 2 without losing shields. They are only are mild annoyance if you kill them as they spawn.

The sites can be detected from space at the same range as megaships (10 kls? I forgot), so finding them in system shouldn't be a problem.

You might have issues finding a place to land around the structures, but there is usually a sweet spot somewhere.

1K ls from the planet. The only problem is knowing which sites are which. Because one site gives weapon blueprints and another gives Module blueprints, and there's no real way to tell the difference at a glance as far as I'm aware.

Point defense turrets don’t shoot at enemies. They only protect your ship from missiles(dumbfire/seeker)

I’ve never had any luck with PDTs protecting me from hatch breakers before.
Maybe RNGeezus just hates me

Then you set the PDTs on the wrong positions.


and


They work also against Torpedos, Thargoid Swarm (if they start their kamikaze flight) and Guardian Sentinel Missiles .

For the Thargoid and Torpedos you need more PDTs, because they´ve got much more hitpoints than the others.
