RawnuGood hunting!
And should you need a really bad AX pilot on your wing, I happily throw myself in front of the goids.

Thank you. :3
Same here. Feel free to call if you run into any bug-related trouble. I'm somewhat time-restricted but still fighting to keep weekends work-free.

Kasumi GotoOr you could just run exobiology for a week and get several billions to your name, making cost almost a non-factor les.

You're right, will try exo-b now where do I look

EpisparhWhy having thargoids in Shin Dez when we have gankers there

Perhaps the intent is to help the players organize an anti-ganker system.

If only Thargoids would cooperate…

Right now the easiest option in the Bubble is to pay visits to the dead Thargoid Spire sites (search link). Each Spire has four different biologicals to scan (coral trees, coral roots, barnacle matrices, and the spires — for the last one land on one of the spire ‘petals’ and poke around), all of which pay quite well, and due to a bug everyone gets the first discovery bonus for these.

Other than that… well, the FSS will tell you whether a planet/moon has any biological signals. The more, the better. Use the DSS to scan the planet/moon, head where the DSS overlay shows blue, and try to spot those pesky lifeforms from the air. (Some lifeforms are rather notorious for being hard to find, but most are quite easy.)

Oh, and if this is your first foray into exobiology, do not forget you need an Artemis suit
(Also FYI, the bio-sampling tool can do a short-range scan for biologicals and highlight them. Use the “aim down sights” keybinding for that.)
