So what happens if you jump in with no Guardian artifacts/weapons/anything else?

QuillmonkeyThe new green relics may indeed be the thargoids giving us materials for anti-guardian weapons. Maybe there are things coming that are a lot worse than thargoids.


I hoped for that… but FD just keeps disappointing me year after year. I wanted to see the Guardians return, take on their old enemy… oh yeah, and us too, which would need Thargoid builds to fight Guardians, get 3 way CZs or certain missions where we team up with either of them to fight the other. In space and on foot.

You mean jumping into hip 22460 with no guardian objects on your ship?

well with only human ax weapons they attack after you drop out of supercruise, with a delay of about a minute.
Immediately after the update, being in system with no ax weapons had the same result.

If you want to experiment the worst you'll get is the rebuy screen. I saw in many times in the hours after the update.

GALDARTthe thargoids were never the enemy, organizations like Inra, Aegis, Azimuth, have always deceived us, aiming their dark goals while profiting by developing weapons for a war they started, don't forget the inra's nefarious experiences, the massacre of millions of thargoids by the mycoid.

stop being deceived, the enemies are not the thargoids, we must seek peace, the knowledge that we could acquire with the thargoids is immeasurable.


You and The Void Kin would get along nicely, for that is exactly our goal. Humans could learn to understand the Thargoids.

Ain't they're officially extinct?

Sigh, looks like Thargoid probes are quite fragile. Tried to scoop two manually and they went boom as soon as touching my cargo hatch I will get a collector after weekly tick.

use class c instead d limpets, more integrity and not so fast boom, had that often too with limpets. u can also thrust a bit in the opponent direction when the limpets arrive at your ship, or just keep the cargo door closed and open it when the limpets are in position under your ship. i have a picture of probe stealing in fleet gallery, at one of my ships, shows exactly that situation
