Q's about Geometric Owl

[ZeroAffex]

Greetings!

So after doing one of the most ridiculous missions ever "Torus Aeternal" I was left with the Geometic Owl. I am having issues with trying to keep it though and thought I'd come here and see what others do with the damn thing xD

Issue 1: It's illegal to own right? I can't seem to set guidance to shipyards in Argon Prime or other places like that due to I am guessing it's legality. Is there a way around this? Can't I dump a part or something to make it legal?

Issue 2: Just getting it out of Protectorate sectors is proving a challenge. I've reloaded my save 3 times now because of this ship being targeted as I am trying to leave. My most latest attempt, I sent up an Osprey in hopes to tow the damn thing out of there but they shot down my Osprey before it could recover the ship.

I just sold it to Argon's Wharf for 1.3 or 1.4 million and am thinking this is the best solution. I saved beforehand though and have no problem reloading it if I should keep it but after all the headache, I decided to just sell the damn thing and be done with it.

Is selling it a good way to deal with it? Or should I have kept it and done something else to keep it? I know it can navigate through hazardous material but I read somewhere else we can get hull mods to do this for us, so it's really not that special at the end of the day correct?

Thanks for your time! Have a good rest of your weekend :D

The Geometric Owl works like any other ship after the quest is completed. There's no illegal anything about it. The illegal thing is likely the AI it has. It'll work like any other ship after you dock on the Segaris Pioneer's ship and the quest is completed in it's entirety. It cannot navigate hazardous areas, that's only for the mission and only affects the Torus piece.

To escape the protectorate sectors, you can just speed away in travel mode as it is the fastest 4 weapons fighter in the game, or stay docked in the Segaris Pioneers ship, they will make their way back to their territory.

I love it and use it as my personal ship all the time as it is extremely fast, is easy to get early and can easily disable L and XL ships with the weapons it comes with.

If you think you've messed up, you get another Moreya in the terran mission line or can get it from the Yaki themselves, if you're lucky enough to find one and get it to bail.

This thing goes 8000+ m/s easily without engine mods so once you're able to teleport everywhere, you can send it to some remote station and teleport to it as needed, or load it up with satellites/resource probes and have it map a region for you.

Recommend staying docked until both ships reach Getsu Fune where you should be able to undock and go anywhere you want like in any other ship. Might be able to undock in Asteroid Belt but just to be safe I would wait one more sector.

I just stayed docked on the ship until we were out of Terran space.

That's probably the best plan honestly.

I was able to finally make my way out of the area by not using autopilot and manually speeding by the welcoming or should I say, exiting party ;D Love it and started using it as my primary ship.

Glad I came here for advice. I was going to sell it for peanuts lol

Most likely the only thing really illegal is you being in Earth/Moon system. Unless you already have sufficient standing with the Terrans.
