How to get the ship "Shadow of Empire" - English

Anciente Holocrystal

this is a screenshot I made the game.




First this guide teaches how to get the legendary ship Shadow of Empire, present in the game as an "easter egg".

What to do?

first of all you should buy the scientific basis the probes "satellites" to use in research in the uninhabited planets.

you should keep looking and looking for an old crystal, called "ancient holocristal", please note that this criatal is generated randomly on the planets.

after finding it, you should take him to a scientific basis for a search for that you will have to have "NODES - Dominators", will take about a month to complete this research. note (choose well the scientific basis, because it is destroyed you lost research and also the ships.

after restarting before all this, will be presented three different types of ships, each with a price, size and different bonuses.

According to russian wiki the crystal only spawns on 31+ unpopulated planet you visit? Like, you dont even need to explore them, you just need to visit 30 unpopulated planets, then you need to start surveying every planet after that because the crystal spawns the moment you land but you need to explore the planet to actually find it.

That is so expensive for the 1.5k size version. I can’t decide between earning for it and then buy small mission related ship (repair costs and speed), or buy with medium sized one now that will be able to outrun flag ships in combat. I suspect experienced players don’t look for the heaviest ship out there, other then smuggling drugs around during missions. I have the pirate khan reward hull, and it seldom runs out of space although most of my guns and modules take less than 30 weight.

Extra info:
It requires the scientists 500 nodes to research the ship, and takes 30 days.
After the research is done you can buy 3 ships in 3 sizes: 700, 1100, 1500. So you can buy one ship from each size, only from this research base, which means if the base gets destroyed somehow, you can't buy it anymore.
Price of the ships:
700: 1.5m
1100: 2m
1500: 2.5m

I'm just going to put it here are stat.
I found the Holocrystal on the 36th explored planet in the mid year of 3013.
Maybe interesting fact, the description of the crystals says:
"An ancient holocrystal which has lain on an empty planet since time began (maybe longer), which has been encoded with some incomprehensible cipher. Through a microscope you can see a half erased marking that reads: "Property of Kuat Drive Yards". If you find the crystal, please return it to our employees without reading its contents. We recommend additional analysis by cryptographic specialists.

Probably important information: Holocrystal could be found once:
1)You digged more than 20-30 planets
2)Reached digged km's of about 10.000 (or so)
3)Actual cost of holocrystal equial to actual cost of commonly found through digging items.
I found it in 3336 year of my 200% playthrough. Lel.
Hope i helped someone.

the game releases only a scientific basis, which is the basis that you deliver the crystal, once given the crystal to the base you must protect it at all costs, because it is the only one who can sell to you the ship out of series "special", so sorry to have the ship you'll have to start another save!

игра выпускает только научную основу, которая является основой, что вы доставить кристалл, то дали кристалла к основанию необходимо защитить его любой ценой, потому что это единственный, кто может продать вам судно из серии "Специальный", так жаль, что корабль вы будете иметь, чтобы начать другую спасти!

I do not know much Russian, I used the google translator

Thanks for the reply. Guess I gotta keep looking. Thanks for the guide bro.

I have any problem. I found the crystal. Then I gave it to scientific basis. But scientific basis was destroy. I don't buy "Shadow of Empire". What should I do?

Sorry for my english.

the probability analyzer does not work to show where the crystal, the crystal can be found on any planet of any type (low, medium, high and even very high), I for one found the crystal in a low value planet.
