Explorer Token for Asteroid Field(Rich)
Are you supposed to get one for discovering this playfield? I got a "report" about it and to read up in PDA F1 for more info but no token.

If this is by design that's cool I just want to know.

Thanks very mooch
check the container.
If you are connected to the container controller, when you receive any item...it goes to the container.

I got 57 tokens till now.
No issues... still looking for the last 3 ones.

Game is saying that are 10 "star" systems, but I only got 9.
anyway...
the never ends quest... continues...

Good tip and thanks for the advice, I'll remember that!

Btw I think the Advanced no CPU core for the final Explorer Token prize is insulting useless. Anyone can turn CPU off at anytime, the fact it's the grand prize makes it feel like Eleon is slapping me in the face and laughing at me expecting anything worthwhile.

An advanced core.

I guess if we ask for something better next they'll give us an EPIC BLOCK that lets us ignore weight/volume.
well... it is only one.
To get more advanced cores...only at legacy bases or ships.
and it is not a easy task if you respect the game.

It is great to have options... but some options, sometimes, only makes sense if you were following the game since the first alpha version.
It is an "option" to try to keep and please everybody with your own style.
and keep it...as much as possible.
What define you...is not what you are, but how you do it.

I start to learn about this game when was alpha 4 to 5.
and to me is one of the best games ever made.
It is not perfect...can be a lot more... it can.
But still alive and getting better each time.
and Eleon is not a wallet explorer or scammer.

Sorry... but after 14 years of steam... developers like Eleon are very rare.

I think the Advanced Core is the best prize they could give. I could not otherwise operate my endgame capital vessel without using a cheat.

I can't spawn in an Epic Base teleporter without using a cheat either guys.

But I can earn one in game for free.

The advanced core? The game has vanilla built in options to turn CPU off. Without cheating. That's the point I'm making. (Also, the fact you can find "other" Advanced Core even further cheapens it as the Explorer Grand prize, it's so ununique you can get more in game. Sounds like a Mid tier reward not the finale)

I already mentioned "If you play with" already, I thought I made that clear but here I go repeating myself.

Yes the way YOU play with your own pre set rules and challenges. It works for you. I'm happy. No sarcasm. Clapping right now.

It doesn't work for me. Why am I being scolded or having things "explained" to me, especially since I already acknowledged them. C'mon guys.

Epic Armor mods, Epic HV and CV Detector, Epic Drill, Epic Base Teleporters.

This is a nitpick, I'm not saying this is ruins the game for me. I'm just fussin some. :divemask:

I can just call the Epic Base TP the grand prize and that's suddenly a perfectly fine scenario.

What??

You're not meant to spawn in vessels or bases with epic components in the first place. Ever. You're meant to upgrade said components and you can do that just fine, without cheats, if you get the upgrade kits.

Totally not comparable.

Opinion: People who play with CPU disabled are ruining the game for themselves, or they're just complete simpletons, like RandalMcdaniel. An advanced core is the logical final reward.

*Technically not a cheat but a game setting that, to some people (me included) definitely feels like a cheat.
We said anything about RE? This whole thread is vanilla. What made you even think this was a RE discussion?

Opinion: People that play with W/V turned on for challenge or realism are silly bc they then turn around and byass it with portable constructors and F4 logistics

Opinion: People that play RE for the challenge and difficulty are silly when they live out of a HV early game to avoid base attacks, which makes the point of playing for the difficulty seem silly.

I turn CPU off and that's not a cheat, how is Advanced Core the logical final reward when you can get more than one of them.

Explain these things to me, why you think this is an RE thread, and why you think an item that's so epic you can find dozens of them is the logical final reward?

My post is not about RE. There we go, explanation done.
You explain to me why you suddenly think this is an RE thread, lmao

Ooooh boy. I play on the official vanilla server (weight, volume and CPU all on) and I do not use the factory for this purpose. Assuming that everyone who plays with W/V on actually bypasses W/V restrictions is just silly.

Yes, I already said as much in my previous post.

Now this is a good question. My answer would be: getting it through the Explorers Guild is much, muuuuch easier than raiding the Corruptor, a Matter Converter or that one Legacy CV that also drops them (Decimator?)

You can't upgrade base teleporters or warp drives, you can't upgrade Detectors. In RE, you can upgrade your CV warp drive with progenitor tech and such to go way past 30 LY. In Vanilla you cannot. So what are you talking about? Because you can't upgrade base components to Epic levels. *Shrugging shoulders with vigor*

???

Clarify what you're talking about please so I don't "assume" you were talking about RE. Because what else are you talking about? It isn't Vanilla.

Now this is a good question. My answer would be: getting it through the Explorers Guild is much, muuuuch easier than raiding the Corruptor, a Matter Converter or that one Legacy CV that also drops them (Decimator?)
Or I turn CPU off in the options menu instantly like, just like that. Boom. All cores I make are now advanced cores. No cheating or spawning necssary.

What an Epic Reward. The equivilant of clicking a box in the options menu. So gratifying. Instead of just clicking that box, I jumped through hoops and warped around on a scavenger hunt and earned doggy biscuits and turned them in and then I got the exact same thing as if I had just clicked a box. Once.

"upgrade kits"

There are no upgrade kits in Vanilla other than weapon upgrade kits for sidearms (Pistol/Shotgun/Sniper ect)

THAT is why I thought you were talking about RE. Get real.

Have you ever gotten the rewards for the Explorers Guild level 28, 35, 42 and 49 in vanilla?
J-M v2.5.5 Jul 2, 2022 @ 2:06am 
Since we're double-posting anyway, here goes:

I'm going to help you out a little bit with some all-caps:

IN VANILLA EMPYRION
  • The Explorers Guild level 28 reward is an Epic HV Detector UPGRADE KIT
  • The Explorers Guild level 35 reward is an Epic CV Detector UPGRADE KIT
  • The Explorers Guild level 42 reward is an Epic CV Warp Drive UPGRADE KIT
  • The Explorers Guild level 49 reward is an Epic BA Teleporter UPGRADE KIT

Click here[i.imgur.com] for a screenshot of me receiving an Epic CV Warp Drive UPGRADE KIT in VANILLA EMPYRION.

You must now use the multitool to UPGRADE your CV Warp Drive to an Epic CV Warp Drive. You do this with the Epic CV Warp Drive UPGRADE KIT.
Proof, of course, in another screenshot: click here[i.imgur.com] (see bottom right)

You can even downgrade an Epic CV Warp Drive, again using the multitool. This will give you back your Epic CV Warp Drive UPGRADE KIT.

And this is all in VANILLA EMPYRION.

One more thing: saving a blueprint with at least one epic device will make the blueprint 'illegal'. This is by design. This is why I posted this:
XLjedi: I can't use my endgame CV without a cheat*; I need an advanced core.
dragonbornzyra: I can't spawn in an epic base teleporter without a cheat.

What??

You're not meant to spawn in vessels or bases with epic components in the first place. Ever. You're meant to upgrade said components and you can do that just fine, without cheats, if you get the upgrade kits.

Read this again, preferably ten times, and please don't reply until you understand how the VANILLA GAME actually works.

Do you mean Epic Base TP UPGRADE KIT?
Yes. Yes you do.

I have 57 tokens of 60.

there are Spanj style players... who don't know how to play without the cheat, but are great builders... and spit on the plate they eat.
There are players who only know how to play in specific scenarios... and think they are better than the game developer...
There are a lot of builders who only know how to make bases and ships because the game was very difficult...
there are players who don't know how to build anything, but they are an excellent player.
There are players who believe that a change in some update ruined the game because "he" was used to playing in a certain way...

anyway... there's "crazy" for everything in the world... even to criticize without even playing.

That's why this game is divided into "types" of players with several options for you to play the way you want and what you like best.
After all... what defines you... is how you do it and not what you are.

Truth hurts, sincerity offends for being arrogant...but there is a cure.
The lie only kills and destroys.
If anyone was offended... I apologize in advance.

I'm only offended by people who post blatant misinformation and then insist that what they posted is true. In other words -- not you :)

Also, for the record: some parts of the Empyriopedia are outdated. From the top of my head: 10 sun types are mentioned, which used to be accurate, but now the (unique) green sun that you find in the centre of Legacy space gives a token for the Legacy home system. Result: there are only 9 sun types left that actually grant tokens.
I don't know from the top of my head what the other two discrepancies are, but I'm 99% sure that, as of v1.8.1, you can only get 57 tokens. See list.

To get all rewards, you only need 56 anyway ;)
