Looks like I have to do some more bounty hunting to go fund another try (turns out I need to refuel my SRVs manually). I really want that Guardian PP...I’m not planning on Thargoid hunting yet; I’m trying to hold off engineering my stuff.

MAVERICKbirdyMy first excursion into Guardian Ruins has ended before it’s even begun—botched the landing with my brand spanking new DBX and was forced to rebuy. This BITES. All that exploration data I was gathering? Gone. That Guardian cargo I was hauling, hoping to sell? Yeah, I’m not getting those back.

Below is a site I like to use for Guardian Module blueprints. It has flat areas to land close to the site and the layout of the pylons (as in picture) are easy to memorize. May be best done in solo/PG cos it's popular.
Don't forget your Point Defenses. I pack two on my DBX, both on the upper auxiliary points. They take out the Guardian missiles, no problem!

Sounds like you really need to practice your landings!
If you think you're going into a high-risk area or activity, far better to unload &/ turn in all you can prior & minimize any potential losses.

Ya don’t say. (But really, this is all my fault—I’ve never really done any real flight in atmo before, let alone one outside of a settlement, so I should’ve bookmarked the location before I jumped in, jumped back to Ohm, sold my stuff, and then done the ruins; at the very least I wouldn’t have eaten that loss quite as hard)

if one doesn't want a p2p networked game, don't buy it...

Rat CatcherI always read the bleating about p2p as "I want single shard servers free"...

The thing is that I have realized that after 6 months as this is not something that they announce in their marketing materials.
And it is still a good game if you avoid PvP as then p2p is then sufficient. The thing with FPS is that it usually very fast paced and p2p synchronization issues will be even greater than what we have currently.
