Explorer's Guild Tokens/Epic Rewards

[Deacon Fahrley]

Has anyone started a discussion regarding the various requirements for obtaining the full list of Explorer's Guild Tokens? I have searched everywhere but no one seems to be pooling wisdom. If there is a broader thread that I should be looking at, please point me in the right direction.

In the mean time, I am having difficulty finding the final 4 items.

I got the following already:

- 17 ore types
- 10 Sun types
- 21 of 22 Planet/Moon types.
- 3 of 6 Home Planets.

I've spent a lot of time on this now and have figured out a lot of the quirks of this guild. I'd be happy to share info - not sure if that is spoilerish to post but can definitely send private messages.

Ideally, it would be great to share my list of planets/Moons so that someone could check theirs to see what' missing. If you have the full list of 22, please feel free to provide that in private.

Also, What are the 6 specific factions that have home planets. I know 3 that definitely count toward the total. I know one that does NOT. Is the planet name consistent across all games, or is it randomized? Its like looking for a needle in a haystack IF the name of the system doesn't include the word "home" in the system name, as the 3 I have found did. Not sure what I am looking for and I've been at it a while now.

Heck - I am not really clear on exactly what a No CPU Core is, other than maybe an upgrade to a base or ship to allow you to exceed the normal limits?

One final thing - Are some of these epic items brand new? Is there other ways to obtain, for example, the epic teleporter upgrade? I mean, who doesn't want TWO of those, right?

Thanks!

'No CPU Core' removes CPU requirements on that structure. It's same as turning CPU off just on THAT structure. (base, ship etc.) Yes, Epic stuff is new in vanilla. Seems the dev's have been paying attention to the scenario mods (Reforged Eden for example) and including a few of the things you can find in those into the core game. Nice :)

How did you get these to trigger? I'm playing on the official Eleon vanilla server and while new ores/planets/moons/stars automatically trigger and give me explorer tokens, I can't get this to work with homeworlds.

The encyclopedia description says "triggers on entering orbit around a faction homeworld".

On the official vanilla server the Zirax home system is Malorus and the Kriel home system is Ponti Gamma. In both of these solar systems, I visited every sector. In sectors with planets, I entered the playfield of every planet. No discoveries triggered yet.

Am I doing something wrong?

The biggest limitation of the system is that the game hoards the knowledge of your progress to itself and doesn't share. Nowhere in the UI is there a place to see what discoveries you've already made, so that you might avoid detours that don't advance that progress.
