Engineering and Materials

Suggested material farming locations listed below.

Review these videos to learn the basics of engineering and materials gathering:

Raw Materials:

Material	System	Body
Polonium	HIP 36601	C 1 a
Ruthenium	HIP 36601	C 1 d
Tellurium	HIP 36601	C 3 b
Technetium	HIP 36601	C 5 a
Antimony	Outotz LS-K d8-3	B 5 c
Yttrium	Outotz LS-K d8-3	B 5 a

You can also use the "Bug Killer" crash site (HIP 16613 1 a), or Koli Discii site (Koli Discii C 6 a):

Material(s)	System	Body
Antimony, Ruthenium, Tellurium, Tungsten, Zirconium	HIP 16613	1 a
Antimony, Ruthenium, Tellurium, Adaptive Encryptors Capture, Atypical Encryption Archives, Cracked Industrial Firmware	Koli Discii	C 6 a

Data:

There are a couple of good options for data materials - Jameson's crashed Cobra (HIP 12099 1 b), and the "Bug Killer" site listed in Raw Materials (HIP 16613 1 a)

Material(s)	System	Body
Adaptive Encryptors Capture, Atypical Encryption Archives, Cracked Industrial Firmware, Modified Consumer Hardware	HIP 12099	1 b
Adaptive Encryptors Capture, Atypical Encryption Archives Cracked Industrial Firmware, Antimony, Ruthenium, Tellurium	HIP 16613	1 a

Manufactured:

One of our "favorites" is the abandoned "Dav's Hope" Facility ( Hyades Sector DR-V c2-23 A 5 ) (Map)

chemical distillery, chemical manipulators, chemical processors, compound shielding, conductive ceramics, conductive components, conductive polymers, configurable components, electrochemical arrays, flawed focus crystals, focus crystal, heat dispertion plate, heat exchangers, heat vanes, high density composites, hybrid capacitors, mechanical components, mechanical, refined focus crystal, salvaged alloys, shield emitters, shielding sensors, worn shield emitters

Biotech Conductors, Exquisite Focus Crystals, and Modified Embedded Firmware can be obtained through "passenger" missions to Sirius Atmospherics.

You can run these missions between Robigo and Sothis, or Sothis and Ceos.
