Crystalline Shard: Difference between revisions

Line 8:

Crystalline Shards are organic structures that have recently been discovered in the [[Sanguineous Rim]] region and beyond. They grow on [[planets]] with volcanic activity that are located at least 12,000 LS from the main [[star]]. They produce Crystalline Clusters which, when shot from a [[SRV]], drop high-grade [[materials]] matching the planet's composition. In other words, they drop the same material as Needle Crystals would in a volcanic site, but there are lots and lots of them. No need to hope for metallic meteorites! No RNG! Simply drive around, shooting and picking up the clusters until your material storage is full!<ref name=":0">[https://www.reddit.com/r/EliteDangerous/comments/abg1ub/this_fellow_commanders_is_the_antimony_mother_lode/ This, fellow Commanders, is the Antimony Mother Lode!]</ref>

The catch? The closest known sites are 2,~~800~~ LY from [[Sol]], in the [[Sanguineous Rim]] region. However, it can be worth it if you need to max out on several materials, or for new [[Commander|Commanders]] wanting to unlock [[Professor Palin|Prof. Palin]] and stock up on some materials at the same time. To make this more generally useful we would need to complete the list of materials and hopefully find locations closer to [[the Bubble]].<ref name=":0" />

The catch? The closest known sites are 1,500 LY from [[Sol]], in the [[Sanguineous Rim]] region. However, it can be worth it if you need to max out on several materials, or for new [[Commander|Commanders]] wanting to unlock [[Professor Palin|Prof. Palin]] and stock up on some materials at the same time.
