    BEFORE you head out there, downtrade all the G5 mats you have. THEN, go and refill them all to max. Most efficient that way.
  • I for one appreciate the time and effort you put into this guide, given how much time spend in Elite, gathering materials it is a good return on time investment. Also, I have noticed a big improvement in your production values in your videos, given you are just starting out... well done.
  • @danieltews6631
    It really worked, and it was a lot of fun again. Many thanks for the valuable tips!
  • @Garryck-1
    I wasn't aware that FDev had slightly nerfed the crystal plants.. so thanks very much for this info. I used to use my trusty DBX for raw mats harvesting. Looks like I might need to re-jig one of my Pythons (or maybe a 'Conda like you did) for this. But that will be a while yet. I fully maxxed out all my raw mats (as well as manufactured and encoded) before loading all my ships aboard my carrier and heading out to Colonia to unlock all the Engineers there, so as to upgrade all my ships at the same time.
  • @franader
    I bumped into a lot of brain trees during some of my expeditions (including the one you sent me on in your last video about exobiology) and found selenium and some other cool material (except brains, unfortunately). But i learned 2 new things in this video: Never heard about these crystal tree planets before, and didn't know that i can harvest these trees by bombarding them. Thanks for the info! Great videos!
  • OUTTOZ LS-K D8-3 body B5A has geysers that have crystal clusters which have Selenium on them. I maxed mine out moving between three of them, and relogging. A LOT of relogging. But it worked :D
  • @Ezmarii997
    Thank you so much for this video and please continue to make elite content :D I just returned to the game in the last month or two, having last played right as engineers released in horizons so I'm re-learning things. I never really dove into all the aspects of the game because it all felt too intimidating and i didnt have the time, but i do now. and updated info is getting harder to find these days. so thank you very much!
  • @bubo1
    A little tip about the remote release flak launchers. You may have the free ones FDEV gave out in your outfitting store from when they did that event some time back, I can't remember what it was, but they were basically engineered with different colours so they could be used as "fireworks", so probably Guy Fawkes night here in the UK, or your regional equivalent, 4th of July or whatever. Anyway, these particular remote release flak launchers DO NOT work for farming trees, as I personally found out after travelling the 1500LY trip. This was before I saw this video btw. I believe these free launchers are massively nerfed on there damage output, I guess so people could fire them at each other willy nilly, as you do with fireworks in real life, and as a result they do not have enough DPS to shift a shard from a tree. You can only use the "real" remote release flak launchers which you have to buy. The wiki is the best place to find where to buy these as they are not just available anywhere from what I can see, and I think they have to be unlocked. As for the video, I've never heard anyone else make the connection on what might happen with the hoards of abandoned limpets, that is such a funny idea 😆. And the precedent has already been set with VGER on Star Trek! 🤣, which I believe is actually in the game, pre-sentience.
  • @gizmo104drives7
    Thanks for this iv done 1 round trip vollecting all these but did it in srv and this way seems much quicker. Also thanks for a proper voice over! Great tutorial 👌
  • @zenairzulu1378
    Thanks for this. You went far for this😅. Heard great things about same idea about Brian trees worlds as well. Edit just finished the video should have guessed you talk about Brian 🎄
  • @tonyllinx
    I have a lot to learn in elite. Not exactly sure what ive just watched but it lokked brilliant. Must say the Anaconda looks a fantastic ship. (ps, decided to jump the 200 warps back home so not at darkstar anymore) :D
  • Well done, I never considered collecting like this, very useful thanks o7 :)
  • @user-vc8zo4ql7u
    Great Video, watched a few others and couldn’t quite grasp the procedure but after this I can consistently get the materials 🎉
  • @MetalDragon42
    Awesome Vid one trick I use to use with stuff being moved around from Horizons to Odyssey was to just log into Horizons so stuff is where it's always been and and anything you collect carry's back into Odyssey, this worked well for stuff like this...or use too have not try in a long long time lol... That is Normal Horizons not Legacy that was not around beck then lol
  • @Arazeus23
    This video has been extremely useful over the past several weeks. Thank you so much! o7
  • @Datan0de
    Very useful video! I was aware of surface mining like this, but you included a lot of details I wasn't aware of. Also, is thought the crystal planets were completely useless in the Odyssey era. Glad to know they're still a reliable source, even if it takes more time. I miss driving around them collecting mats, though.
  • @Frenzy80
    Great Video! B-rated collector limpet controllers have the highest range and A-rated collector limpet controllers stay the longest time active.
  • Another awesome video, thank you so much ! I've never been to the Crystalline Shard planets so I'm going to head out there when I've grabbed my elite rank in Exobiology (from your other awesome tutorial video) =D Thank you again for your awesome content !
  • Amazing! i was doing this whit the Rover and it took me ages. i didnt think of this method!
  • @Kafkabinkles
    Thanks! Really helpful step by step video. Using it now-this method is so much faster and more enjoyable than skidding around aimlessly in the SRV. It's dark up above the orbital plane isn't it? -I love the way the skybox changes depending where you are in the galaxy.
