Damn the reward is underwhelming...I mean it is literally just that you filled your "timeline"...the Boron does NOTHING.
Now if he had at least some cool blueprint as reward (Boron S Fighter *wink wink*) that'd be very cool. You literally have to fly through all of the known systems and even go into the heart of Xenon Space...
And your reward is "Blubb blubb thanks mate". :[
If at least you could have the timeline unlocked permanently...so you'd only do it again on other characters to get the little caches.
Couldn't agree more.
It's a could idea for the intension of the Data Vaults, but due to less of a storyline anyway, it seems a mute point for it not being already in the log.
If it were me designing the Data finds, I'd place them in the various rooms of stations, and each sector having these snippets to discover. When it the timeline refers to a location or part not within current "verse", ie. Goners, etc, then these are to be unlocked when you find an unused Gate location as a reward for discovering this object.
Since they went so far to include on station first person views, there should be other things you can find while on various stations, either in the Manager's Office, Engineering, black market bar, or even from other locations somewhere on a station. There seems to be a lack of variation to each station and nothing is pointing to anything specific on a wharf in a Argon sector or a Teladi Sector, which is sad.
Even though you cannot claim certain ships, and there seems to be no pilots ejecting from these, there should be a small chance of these factions doing so, the reward for you, is a timeline unlock or information on the enemy. Just a thought
