[SOLVED] Problem with Core Dynamics Composites
Is there a spot where they drop very often from High Grade Emissions?
As often as Imperial Shielding in Pandemonium.

Cause i've been checking few suggested spots but i get nothing except Proto Heat Radiators every time. Core Dynamics Composites are almost non existent i maybe get like 1-2 per 10 signals if i'm lucky.

EDIT: Not really "solved" per se but i don't think i need anything from this thread anymore.

You can't find as much core dinamics as Imperial Shielding.
However to maximise your chances to find Core Dinamics you need to find Federal systems with no active status on every minor faction (!!!).

I keep getting Proto Heat Radiators on these now. Extremely rarely i get Core Dynamic Composites

Like i said i tried the suggested spots (some which i had already bookmarked). It seems the information is no longer valid and these specific mats are much rarer than before.

You also have to focus on killing core dynamics ships... All the Fed ships, Vultures etc... You can sometimes find them in high grade signal sources. I've always found them to be quite rare though...

Just trade for them.

Too expensive and time consuming to trade them in i need quite a lot for Hull Reinforcements engineering.

Yes getting Core Dynamics Composites seems extremely rare now.
They feel like chances for them have been severely nerfed.

I still find them, usually along with proprietary composites.

I find them in corporate federal systems where the economy is high tech+extraction.

(High grade emmissions) :steamthumbsup:


Note:
I don't know if the sys state is a factor but the latest was civil liberty

I was forced to trade cause they are legit non existant drops for me.
Took a hit from my available mats because of this.

I didn't have issues finding them, took a few tries sometimes, but just Fed system, high population, state None. horizons for me, not sure Odyssey should be different.

Edit: whenever in doubt this guy is my go-to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iHl-SsKQfe4&list=PLzVp83mMeIpWaC3I5BXIOcpzPuxzqC5NZ&index=6&t=438s

Yea i know that guide i followed for most of my mat needs.
Except the Composites. I don't feel comfortable constatnly restarting the game for one HGE to reappear.

Cause sadly just exiting to menu isn't enough.

Compare the time required to get other materials to trade vs the time you spend trying to find what you want directly.

Do what I do. Go looking for Military Supercaps and you'll get nothing except Military Grade Alloy and Core Dynamics Composites.
I feel you on HRPs, setting up a pretty standard Gunship or Chieftain takes quite a lot of Core composites. A size 2 HRP and a Size 5 is the same amount of materials after all. I always try to have a lot of those.

You are missing the point.
I am farming highest tier mats for downtrading in same mats category cause its cheaper and more efficient way to stock up on all mats for future engineering and most of them have spots where they drop like candy. Except Composites.

I had to use up supply of 2 of my high tier mats to have a full supply of one high tier mat.

So even more grind if i ever need those aswell. That's anything but cheap or efficient.

I wouldn't mind it so much if not for the mat storage capacity limit that you cannot expand in any way.

So reason why i wanted a alternative source but no suggested spots that i tried are reliable anymore for the Composites so was hoping someone here would know of a decent spot to farm those.

Core Dynamics composites used to drop more often.

high grade emissions in federal Systems. State doesnt matter, population doesnt matter. They are one of the easiest to get, usually. The hard ones are pharmaceutical isolators, improvised components and, most of all military supercapacitors (those are the ones i usually need to trade for).

That being said the high grade drops do have some randomness to them. Just keep on trying. (playing Odyssey btw. its exactly the same as Horizons)

I am on Horizons.
Guess i have ♥♥♥♥ luck.

As for pharmaceutical isolators i heard destroying cruise ships in anarchy systems is best way to get them. Or was that for a different mat?
