EXO Request platform description

[mazrados]

Is there anywhere documented what does it mean what is in this platform's console?

There are 2 pages with only text about some errors (for now?), one page about points requirements for rewards - it's pretty obvious. There is one more page with some symbols that I totally don't understand.

Only the brain items are available for now. The rest will presumably become available as the event progresses; see the various printers for hints.

Thank you for this information. I was actually asking for something else but it's good to know this too. Less wasted time for searching something that does not exist XD

I think that's part of the quest. There's been a breakdown and everything is messed up.

Ah, thanks for the reminder about the staged event. Have been racking our brains trying to figure out how to make Resinpound. Maybe it will show up in the Chemistry lab during another stage or something (I'm guessing it will be made from resin and compound).

We found that the Burrito can be made in the Large Printer and other items can be crafted in the Small and Medium Printers using the common items we're finding in the triangle-shaped containers underground (forgot their name).

We've been commonly finding the Cosmic Baubles, unknown Biofuel, Noxathane, and Automatons (looks like little toy robots).

i've already completed the event, atm you can get resipound and leeks from the exo request platform and craft the rest.

Is it safe to assume that the higher the amount you put on the platform, the higher the chance of getting leek/resipound?

Hi, I am playing this game for the first time, and hence trying to figure out how this event goes with the EXO request platform.

So to get the loot for this event, I have to go find/dig for the mats, then combine it based on a recipe and then send that through the EXO request platform? I'm guessing this is a heavily grinding event?
Also is there any specific things to look out while digging for these mats? Any good combination of items to maximize the points to achieve the loot faster?

Any help would be appreciated! :)

The "loot" for this event, at least this first stage, is in containers you will find underground in caves. You need to figure out how to open them. The only digging necessary would be to get down into the caves. The materials are used to craft items that you then send on the EXO rocket.

In this first phase it is extremely grindy. Personally, I've only sent enough to get the first reward level. The material you collect now will also be used in later phases, where the point value of crafted items will be much greater. So, what I'm doing is stockpiling these basic materials for use later

I'm stockpiling too, but I really want to experiment with sending off a full canister of cosmic squash (or whatever it is) that gives you 14k in points to see if it gives you leek or resipound. RazorX has mentioned getting these items as rewards from the Exo rocket and I think it's possible when you send off a good amount of points.

Maybe I'm missing something but what I see is that we need Leek or Resipound for any of the higher value times, like Cosmic Squash. The only things we can craft with the starting materials are worth 88 points each. So, with a full canister, and the 8 slots, that's a maximum of 3520 points per load on the rocket. Let's say I'm curious how you can get more.

Edit: Ok, forgot the gas thing held 160 squashothane, so that would be 14784 for a full load. But that is many hours of grinding to make one load.

So, I tested this and either things are buggy, or I'm sceptical.

I sent off a single item to check the servers and got my 88 points. Then I sent a full load of squashothane, payload of 14784. And got nothing. No rewards, and no reduction to next goal. It said I delivered 14784 points, but my amount to next goal did not change (or maybe a small amount, see below).

I typically duplicate my save before every session, so I loaded up a save prior to sending the rocket (after duplicating again) and sent another full rocket. This time It said I delivered just 704 points, and those were reflected in the next goal figure. It's possible the previous shipment reduced this by 704 points too. I was looking for a 14k change so just really looked at the thousands.

I went back to the save before sending any rockets and will continue with that one. I think I'll wait for phase 2 though before trying anymore.

I think the devs said at one point that other items would become available in stages 2 and 3, and after doing a ton of work for basically nothing, I decided that the first stage was pointless. I'm waiting to see if Stage 2 is also pointless, and if I should instead wait for 3.

I'm pretty disappointed in this event, especially the staging. It's needlessly confusing and boring.

[Macaronis]

I still scratching my head on if we have to make it or find it. This morning I logged in to find my shuttle platform telling me I have some gifts. I got 1 resipound. Outside of that there are large leveled snow men now underground. after two hours and looking I still have not seen anything that gives or makes Leek or resipound. If its really locked away somewhere I will be damned if I can find it. Otherwise this is the dumbest event I have seen. All the crap I have laying around even with automation its like teaching people tis better to pollute after a while than bother to recycle. If they would up the dam speed of the large recycler to eat those box tops it would be so bad but even pulling a train of three Large Shredders its ridiculous. Just not sure this even is even worth the time.

There is a pretty clear hint saying to go look in the mantle.

I feel dumb now. I usually have zero reason to read those hints of even goto the mantle any more on any planet. I just drove down and was like DUH!!!!!!! Thanks!
