EpisparhHm, I am observing a strange behavior in guardian structures. I went there to collect relics, but it appears that I cannot shoot down relics unless I charge pillions. I do not remember this working like that. Did frontier actually changed that with EDO or was it due to the brain fart event yesterday?

I know before sometimes you could shoot them down with the SRV and sometimes not. But shooting them down while on foot always worked for me.

I need a second pair of eyes to confirm my findings, was heading to show friend a nearby Thargoid site out by HIP 22460 since we were having no luck getting hyperdicted
Got to this system listed above,. Site is now registering as GUARDIAN
Please confirm
I think this is odd as it is in a THARGOID system on the gal map and i am sure it was not a GUARDIAN site before

What do you mean, it's registering as GUARDIAN? Is the thargoid site itself showing up as Guardian in the navigations panel? Gonna need a screenshot of this one.

Yuna SakashiroExactly what I was thinking! I mean, who's ever gonna trust Guardian combat tech again? It's a waste of time to even unlock that stuff now.


Anti-Xeno Initiative still promotes the guardian tech so long as you are fighting thargoids outside of HIP 22460. So far that's the only system where guardian tech is rendered inoperative. Will that change down the road? Maybe.

Thanks! Still work around but at least faster than charging pylons.

I can confirm this. My DSS picked upn a guardian signal from the moon as well. I am going to go down and investigate now but my initial thought is that it may have something to do with this. https://inara.cz/gallery/#lg=1&slide=0

I haven't seen any relic like that but I may just be short on the lore.

I found the same thing happens at HIP 22711 7 a . There is a Thargoid Structure there, but it reads as Guardian on the map/scan.


Was this occurring before the update for you?
10 Aug 2022, 5:31pm
Kegaira OhayaYes. I wonder what will happen if we could get the new corrupted guardian relics to the room there


I agree but I am guessing no one has found a way to open the doors as of yet?

Mac4Like I wrote before, playing Horizons on PC I can't even jump to HIP 22460, I get interdicted by Thargoids if I try, and then they leave you in peace and that's it.

So I'm not even sure how you can be on site, unless you were parked there before the event? Can you explain? Since I was wondering...

I had no trouble jumping in to HIP 22460 yesterday in Horizons. No interdiction, no Thargoids, just a lot of debris fields and some beaten-up megaships.

the 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.

I will have one of those you are smoking.

Then go, you know... make friends with them. dance with them, have a few beers. maybe you will even find yourself a Thargoid partner, and everyone will be happy for you two!

The 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.
