KurakilI'm having trouble staying within 500m to scan Thargoid Scouts for their data drops. Is it better to just scan the Interceptors or do crashed Thargoid ships provide the same data?

Scan? Why? You should kill them.

Because they have data and I want a full inventory. ;p

500m range is garbage for scanning scouts. I'll just scan the interceptors instead. But clearly the scouts have something to hide in that data or they wouldn't be so shifty... <.<

It's far easier to get a scan off on an Interceptor in an Interceptor ONLY instance. You can scan each other . Alternatively, if you have been flagged as hyperdictable by looting a Probe then you can scan them every time they hyperdict you in or near the 3 nebulae (Pleiades, Witch-Head, and Coalsack). You'll also need a Shutdown Field Neutralizer for the latter.

Are you implying that your scanner will cause a sphincter malfunction?

Depends on which part of the Thargoid you will be hitting with it!

If you have nothing to do and you are bored, you can stuff my carrier with tritium.
