Welcome to discuss [Fifth Ellydium project](< base_url >/index.php?/topic/31058-fifth-ellydium-project-crystal-plates-research/)!
If this is the refined material for rank 14 destroyers, then I may as well quit now.
Heck, the last blueprint mission I gave up since only 2 members of the team could go over 2500 effectiveness without going past the time limit, making everyone rush objectives.
Can we execute the guy behind this energy converter thingie and the mission? Please please!

There is still a chance that it isn’t for destroyers. After all, we got no weapon for destroyers yet, and this reward is “crystal plate”, not a weapon.
But well, this event looks like a counter to destroyers.
And If live crystal is the material we need x36 to build a destroyer, then those weapons/modules are the worst grind ever. And if we need to refine this material to craft destroyers, then why does these items use the raw material?

I’d say Live Crystals have nothing to do with destroyers r14. simply because destroyers are not alien tech and you don’t have impure xxx/xxx plate thingy.
My speculation that after many complains regarding r11 destroyers devs needed more time to balance some OP modules they planned for r14 and release was delayed (actually they told from start r14 will come late)
If you don’t like alien tech which is kinda situational - you can skip it… We will get another ‘unfindium’ for r14 but stay in touch to grab goodies when they are released

Im sry but you didnt do it right. I was able to finish the mission and all 4 get over 2500 pts. The only important part is doing first round in less than 2 minutes (if you go with cov op you can even destroy a few turrets in the way without slowing down). I did it for the 2nd time in a friend’s account (flying patriarch and sword AE), we were 3 using engi/gunship/command (we had a destroyer pilot for a few rounds in our squad, but he left after the 2nd victory). We took about an hour to do all 5 wins (and we even lost one XD). The mission was really easy…you can ask niripas ”) im sorry you missed it.

6 phases that have been taking a lot of time (like the ones for T3 destroyers), missions saying they are building something big…if its not a destroyer weapon then it has to be R14 destroyers. And i wouldnt find weird that R14 destroyers require live crystals…the whole event is about live crystals and something has to come for destroyers. Also, if you only use live crystals for crafting the content we have so far (+ 2 more items), then i think that currency would lose its use quickly. We know R14s are comming (thx to devs comments and spoilers), question is when and at what crafting cost, and what about the new faction?
“then why does these items use the raw material?”
What do you mean?
It might just be the hull for the alien ship,calm your tits everyone,geez.

now it all makes sense, see the last mission? (kill destroyer): that plate will allow us to craft the spec op destroyer!!

Can you explain how it work? Because from the explanation of a corpmate it suck totally.

To make it short: You need to invest your neodium(in the neodium getting event) in a thing, that has nothing to do with the neoplates, just to finish missions needing them to gain the neodium.

If you are asking about the converter then its just like a Pyro emitter but nothing like it,just point the beam on your enemy and soak up as much damage as you can,you need to deal 20k with it in order to get the Xeno-expert bundle,good luck.
that means i want to kill myself

Well, Destroyer is not a part in Open Space. Unless, if they add it.
this mission is bugged, cant finish it even the ship reach the gate safely.
I tried 3 times and when the cargo reached the gate, nothing happens…

Hmm? So is it for spec ops?

Most probably a new game mechanic,something about regeneration or resistance.
I just want something new for dest, i’m saving up all my life crystal since i make the dag (i got 83 right now) but i hope that gona be a cool weapon or just the r14 dest. Btw i’m pretty sure dev’s will give us a event for it so no need to worry about ressources ”)
It said somewhere that the new project is a passive module I thought… I must have seen something wrong then.
Is it possible to AG yourself in a guard to collect damage for this ‘Pyro’?
The energy converter mission is easiest to do when you find an enemy that also has it and you both unload on each other while you both activate it. The damage will create a feedback loop getting stronger and stronger for 4 seconds.
Also the AG is harder to use on yourself. I suggest EM torpedoes or doomsdays.

The name “crystal plates” and that icon alike many of the passive hull modules would suggest this upcoming new thing to be something for a hull slot.
