Thanks so much for explaining! Love you content on Icarus. Just got back into playing. Wish I found this video sooner. Did a mission and used the vapor condenser on a vapor spout. Got about 100 excotics and left them in my inventory and returned to station. Did not get credit for any of them which sucked.
Thanks, very helpful.. The only bad part is that I don't have any of the things shown in the video, will have to start from scratch, but still.. Attainable
You can obtain any of these items by levelling and getting them via blue prints you will have to craft the items! you can just work on workshop gear when your more settled
Very cool video.. I haven't been able to keep up haha... too much work during the holidays.. but I try to catch your videos when I can my friend.. now can we still take the exotics up with us in our own drop pod or it is required we call down the pod for the exotics?? Love this!! Great to be able to call our pods where ever we are!! thats soooo good..
Hey, you have to call down a special drop pod for exotics now from the orbital exchange interface. I'm trying to get as much content out before the holidays lol
If I'm playing with a friend will it divide exotics between us? Or will it give credit to the person who called the drop pod, or just the person who's game it is? It probably doesn't really matter since you can sit there and farm a map multiple times and help each other with gathering the exotics.
Ok so I tried this strategy but it didn't work. Don't know if something changed after last game updates. But what happened is that the exotic nodes were outside the mission area. I chose the same mission you did, but when I scan the nodes where kinda far away, and I could not reach them, because I got the message saying I was leaving the mission area.
hmm that sounds like a bug if you were getting out of bounds nodes on this mission mate that 100% shouldn't be happening. I know it's a pain but you might want to restart the mission (this video was taken before it got changed to open world mode though)
First of all - very helpful video, thumbs up. Second is a question: Can exotic veins be found on any mission after doing deep vein extraction or are there only some missions that spawn exotic veins? I have played the hunting/farming mission and found veins (but didn't know about the exotic transport ship, so I farmed the vein in vain). In other missions, I can't find any veins - am I just unlucky or are there simply no veins on the map in every mission? Thx for help in advance
Hey thanks for that! First of all Deep vein Extraction only allows you to find exotic ore in caves, it's literally terrible for "farming exotics" I'd highly recommend you checking out this video: th-cam.com/video/ZviGiEniwWo/w-d-xo.html You have to do the PAYDAY mission to find exotic nodes in missions as it unlocks the radar and Extractor, the video I linked provides you with all the info you need, Drop me a message here if you need any more info.
@@Fortizar Sorry, I had done that mission already. Nethertheless, the video described it well. I was just wondering, if I can farm exotics (veins, not the nodes) on any mission after that, because you usually have loads of time after completing the actual mission. Most of the times, you have the benches made anyway, so why not use them to build the extractor and mine exotics besides doing a mission. Really appreciated your quick and nice answer. Keep going like this. Greetz from Germany
@@taylorman7761 yeah once you have done DVE mission you have a very slim chance of finding exotic nodes in caves on missions, honestly for your sanity sake i wouldn't rely on finding these in caves a lot easier to mine them with a extractor. Thanks again mate, i do try!
Have done the mission to unlock exotics but have the extracter researched and cant seem to find any nodes in missions none seem to be spawing at the markers and its driving me crazy
There's a dropship grenade in the regular tech tree also (level 4 I think?) so you don't have to rely on the workshop grenade if you don't have it yet.
the only problem with the tier 4 grenade... it takes a while and a lot of farming to get there. when you could just repeat a few missions and get the workshop one (in the current edition) faster now.
Hey you can't get exotics on open world mode, but this website does tell you where they're located on every mission potentially: www.icarusintel.com/ but you need to do this mission first to unlock the extractor to mine them: th-cam.com/video/ZviGiEniwWo/w-d-xo.html
@@Fortizar ok thank you, I've searched in the open world but haven't found anything yet, but since I now know that the exotic matter is there, I'll keep looking thanks for the quick feedback
You have to do the pay day mission, and you can't get exotics in open world mode - look at my video to explain here th-cam.com/video/ZviGiEniwWo/w-d-xo.html
well, its kinda meh that you can just edit your profile and exchange both Currencys. I dont understand why they gave Players this Option. I dont screw myself by adding it since it breaks the whole Game but just saying ...

I'm so lucky, just exited Icarus and searched TH-cam, as you do, for a Excotics guide. Found your old guide, then this one pops up! Brilliant!
That's awesome, hope you found it helpful 👍
Oh very nice video! Nice to know next time i manage to bring friends over to be able to extract a little faster.
The whole drop ship change is so nice

No problem, don't worry, you're not the only one who's lost exotics recently lol
Great stuff, thanks. Finally ready to try this myself! Leech mode deactivated.
haha Good luck!
hey man very appreciate with your video.. being stop playing like more than 8 months now i'm playing this game again..
No problem, I'm happy it helped 😊
@@Fortizar now i came back to this mission no more exotics.. :(

Wow! Nice! I thought orbital extractor works only on ore veins. Never even try it! ))
Haha no! Hope you found it helpful 👍

If you mine for example 200 exotics yous both get 200 when you send them back to the station 👍
@@Fortizar That's awesome to know that the game rewards everyone in the party equally for their hard work and doesn't cheap out on anyone
Yeah it's good like that!

What to do if you don't have any workshop items other than a suit and move speed modules
If that's all you've got that's all you can use I'd recommend focusing on more important items though.
Have done the mission to unlock exotics but have the extracter researched and cant seem to find any nodes in missions none seem to be spawing at the markers and its driving me crazy
you've done payday? there is 3 exotic nodes on every mission guaranteed you will have to use a radar to find them.
There's a dropship grenade in the regular tech tree also (level 4 I think?) so you don't have to rely on the workshop grenade if you don't have it yet.
That's true 👍
the only problem with the tier 4 grenade... it takes a while and a lot of farming to get there. when you could just repeat a few missions and get the workshop one (in the current edition) faster now.
When you start a Open World can you find there some Exotics or do they only spawn in the Missions who shows you that there is some Exotics ?

I can't find exotics nodes neither in open world and missions. I'm done with deep vein extraction mission. Am I missing something here?
You have to do the pay day mission, and you can't get exotics in open world mode - look at my video to explain here th-cam.com/video/ZviGiEniwWo/w-d-xo.html
@Fortizar ayt, tnx fort. Will watch :)
Ni problem hope it helps
Why the fences around the extracter?
Prevents hostiles getting to your extractors right away, kill them before they destroy your expensive extractor.
I am level 25 and have no currencies at all...why?
Have you been running missions and completing them? Not the dynamic missions from the open world.
@@Fortizar Hey man..no I have only have completed a few missions in open world, but am on EASY so maybe that is it
nono, Have you ran any missions which wasn't in open world mode? open world mode doesn't pay you ren or exotics for doing dynamic missions.
@@Fortizar no not at all....that is why I have nothing I assume?
yeah, check this recent video out it will explain everything you need to know dude! th-cam.com/video/c1hInGjCaNs/w-d-xo.html

I 100% agree with you it one of the massive downfalls of the data decentralisation, not sure why you made this point on this video though?
@@Fortizar since Exotics are the Topic and i got Reminded. Feel Free to wipe it, its Up to anyone anyways. i was just a Bit shocked since i heared about it you know.
No, it's cool. I was just wondering, I'm just hoping the fewer people talk about that method, the less people will be inclined to use it lol.
@@FortizarApologies. not intended to Trigger anything.
Haha, it's absolutely fine, I can handle the comments 🤣
shlurp
can you just keep redoing that same mission? will the exotic deposit be in the same place?
You can re do the same mission, yes, but the exotic nodes will cycle the X amount of possible locations, which is usually 3 or 4
