Elios (seasonal event)

Revision as of 21:30, 23 December 2023

Event Summary

The Elios seem uninterested in helping to prevent the resulting damage of their movements, and due to this negligence, ships are asked to intercept them.

During The Farselle Incursion event (25aug to 24sep), the following effects apply to the entire Galaxy:

• Scrapping artifacts for Complex Tech Parts will yield additional parts.
• All tariffs and auction charges have doubled.
• Exotic Matter is more common during mineral acquisition.
• Legion Missions have a higher chance of success
• When scanning for planets, you have a chance of receiving Complex Tech Parts based on your rank, discovering a 'Market Interchange Beacon', or finding Elios infrastructure: Elios Solar Inverter, Elios Orbital Conduit, Elios Core Mine, or Heliosyne.
