repeatable source for focus crystals
hi,
I found a spitfyre blueprint and decided to make myself one. The only weapon I could get for it was the Prototype Matter/Anti-Matter Launcher, so I made 10 of them. Turns out with 10 Prototype Matter/Anti-Matter Launchers the spitfyre cargo hold has no room for shields or ammunitions. So that was a failure.
I am now thinking of building a kha'ak m6 + lasers, but is there anyway I can get more focus crystals? Mining?

I think their number is deliberately limited, as for quantum computers.
I'm not sure if there is any way of getting more throughout the game other than cheating or using scripts...

Max of 30 Focus Crystals and 30 Quantum Computers in the game, no chance for more unless someone mods them in.

Re: repeatable source for focus crystals
You can follow this thread if you are really determined to get more of them (there is also a German version on the forum if it makes any difference to you):
viewtopic.php?f=199&t=440587&p=5069453& ... e#p5069453
Imo the limitation of focus crystals and quantum computers makes no sense from the gameplay perspective (it may in the lore, I have no idea).
There should be a way of making, finding or buying them from somewhere - this should pose a challenge, but not be outright impossible.
If the game expects you to obtain all blueprints for an achievement, which is a massive amount of work, it should also allow you to fly a carrier full of Spitfyres if you wish to do so...
Using this method doesn't turn your save into a "modified" one so you can still get achievements. It is cheating, but it's a single player game, so do whatever you please with it!

I'm going to need this, I finally got the blueprints for the Beta Kyon Emitters so now I can build and arm that Khaak Corvette that I've had my eye on.Novvak wrote: ↑Thu, 5.

Re: repeatable source for focus crystals
Can you also get Beta Kyons from bailing Khaak fighters?

I'll give the Pinocchio answer from Shrek: It wouldn't be altogether improbable to say that without unforeseeable contradiction from unknown variables while discussing the probability of a non-negative answer to queries related to this particular question point toward the likelihood that encounters of the nature which was before indicated by said question and or questions are entirely not unexpected.

Yes. A Khaak station should appear in a discovered sector a while after you start building TOAs

Good to know, I'm some way from producing them myself!Hwitvlf wrote: ↑Wed, 25.
