Efficient Raw Material Farming in Elite Dangerous
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 окт 2023
- Tired of farming raw materials in your SRV? Try this simple method instead, where you shoot material nodes from your ship and let collector limpets gather materials for you! This works for both brain trees (Selenium) and crystal shards (all other raw materials).

OMG. I am playing since the beginning. Hours of shooting and collecting these raw Materials several times. WOW. Sir, you are absolut my hero today !😀
Glad to be of service! You should be able to completely fill up your G4 raws in just a few hours using this method. The longest amount of time is the jumping to systems and orbital cruise to coordinates.
IIRC a recent update improved on the limpet AI making this a possibility. Props for presenting the method in a concise guide!
Thanks!
Excellent video CMDR. Well done! -Mechan
Thank you, CMDR!
This video needs more spotlight. I've been here since Elite existed and I had no idea about that lil trick with the limpets. Game changer.
Yeah, I have been collecting raw materials for days straight in a SRV, one by one, and just now that I discovered this video
Perfect. No bs no shouting just well paced information. Thank you!
Absolutely brilliant guide! ....thank you so much! o7
I am excited to try this. I hate srv collecting. Thanks!
Me too, friend. Me too.
Whoaaaaa this is awesome! Can't believe I've never heard of this.
It's been fun hanging out at the spires, always fun to fly with you.
Mind literally blown. Never thought of this one.
This is hella useful, thanks for taking the time to make this video. Great work man!
Very nice! I used this approach with flachettes a few weeks ago very effectively but i wasn't aware of the "back-off till you cant see the organics" element. I'll definitely note that for next time.
Hope it helps!
wow 100% thank you for showing this!! about to start the grind (again) and you just saved sooooo much time
The first time I saw a video of this, dude used frag cannons. More ammo than the flak and no need to worry about timing.
Fantastic video, I'll have to try this out! Excited to see what you document next. o7
Great vid, though the edmaterials site appears down. I just used the info displayed in your vid.
One additional suggestion: do this on the night side with night vision turned on. It's way easier spotting the trees, especially the large groups of them.
Wow this video is amazing. I was brought here from Reddit. a commentor left the link when I had issues with the SRV. Amazing.
Same lmao 🤣
I spent 4hrs stocking back up on raw mats when this vid came out, wish I saw it sooner
if you lower terrain quality that effects draw distance. turn it down, and you can use limpets with smaller range. that's what I had to do with my ASP.
plus you can sit closer so limpets wont travel as far
They crashing on the same spot over and over again. Safe height is 700m and you wont loose a limpet.
Thanks man. Came back to ask this exact question. Tried the method last night but couldn’t get the crystal spires to “despawn” even at 1.1km. My graphics settings are maxed out
GOT IT!!! The trick is to "jiggle" the altitude after you send in the collector limpets
Thank you, you, beautiful, wonderful human being for showing me this method
Thank you, thats clear and concise
The same thing work's at the various Guarding site's.
I gave this a go earlier. It's very satisfying.
Thanks. Needing to collect all that stuff bit by bit was one reason that threw me out of the game. I think i will give it a shot.
nicely done!
New ED tutorial-maker? Subbed.
Niice i will try this out. Also this was rly easy to info to absorb. Alot of elite guides are not :)
Fantastic video, yea collecting the raw materials with the SRV was a little tiresome :)
limpets work on planets now? well thats a nice change
Thank you !
Genius!
This built could be improved upon. Why not use a multi limpet controller to get an extra slot for another cargo rack, a 6E cargo rack, a 5A fuel scoop and a 4G SRV module in a size 5 slot in addition to a Detailed Surface Scanner?
Dude, thank you for this.
Thanks for the tutorial! But the material web site is down 😢
Thank you for the video! Doing this right now, i see a small difference which i would like to note:
Tree spawn out (despawn) is for me at 1km or 1,05 km, i think that might depend on hardware specs? Still works for me since 3A limpet controller have 1,25km range :D
o7
Yes, the drop out distance is related to your graphics settings. If you are on ultra settings then you might have to fly out farther (or turn down your settings temporarily).
@@CMDR_E.android i guessed so :D thanks! o7
That's awesome, Thanks! Since you can only synthesize four limpets at a time, I'm wondering if I might try this in a cutter or something with more storage.
I’m guessing this doesn’t work for the console Legacy version of the game.
any idea what settings make those material objects despawn? since I always end up in out of range to make the objects despawn about 1.1-1.3km, and in ur vids it's just 600m somehow
Thanks a lot, very helpful
yes, Turn graphic to low. Take a bit practice getting the distance right thought,
Thanks for the vidja.
You're welcome!
Well, it didn't work for me. Got to the coordinates after at least half an hour, saw the site, fired the flaks, opened the cargo bay, doors, limpets out.....and nothing happened. Ended up doing it the old way with my RSV
Woah dayum! This is a game changer. Thanks heaps o7
Second question: Why Long Range Sensors instead of Lightweight?
always wondered how does edi get there info? is it somehow scraped from the game data? or is it from pilots finding it?
Very helpful!
Amazing, it works beautifully. Does it also work with the crystal forests for the other g4 mats?
Have you tried this yet?
Do you have a similar build that uses the ASP Explorer as a basis instead?
EDMaterials link doesn't work.
this dont work for me xd "plants" despawn when im out of range with limpet controller, for me they despawn at 1,350 km when on ur vid its about 600m how? lowering settings will help?
edit: Yep lowering settings helped XD
very nice!
o7
Im at HIP 36601 C 1 A at the coords (-31.03, 14.85) and there are crystals, which do nto get hit by my flak? How come?
What setting do I turn down to decrease brain tree spawn distance? edit: another comment already said it's terrain quality
Awesome ,👏👏👏👏👏 200 IQ thanks to share this.
You're quite welcome!
It's a brilliant use for something so useless like mines, did you test on empty minner's asteroid field?.
nice, simple, sweet :)!
I tried it once with my Asp Explorer and it didn't work very well. Limpets couldn't get the materials, which were on the ground when I landed and left the ship with the SRV.
I'm wondering if the class of the AspX Sensors 5 versus 6 from Phantom or the blueprint I use, Light Weight, versus Long Range might be the reason.
Well done, liked & subbed! Just out of curiosity, do you get that strange, beautiful surface music with this method? Guessing not. 👍
No, but you can get it for free at my Bandcamp! ianedwardmusic.bandcamp.com/track/mechanism
@@CMDR_E.android Sorry, was referring to actual in-game music, please ignore me.
RIP
Wait.. Mine launchers? Why not Missile launchers? Or is that what you meant and my ears just didn't pick up on it.. But that IS what appeared on-screen (mine launcher). OK, I'm confused.
Missile launchers do work, but they don't have the area of effect needed to break off materials as well as the flak launchers do. Mines are confirmed to work by other CMDRs, but I haven't personally used them.
On the build, why Point Defense and Frame Shift Wake Scanner? I've never used either so I might be out of the loop as to their function, especially in regards to a material collector build.
Because its necessary for engineering. Point defence for guardian stuff.
braintrees start disapering at 700 meters for me. maybe i was lucky but i found two major woods next to each other and just farmed the f out of that. thanks for sharing!
Does it make a difference to the density of the trees/shards between Odyssey and Horizons?
i blasted that place pretty well and got 6 Selenium, mostly Manganese. Definitely not worth the effort!
is this method still working? I shoot the crystals see stuff fly off them but when I reverse thrust out the limpets say "No valid target"
thx for this! i hate srv farming. Flechette works too?
Second try :) I fire the flaks, get on my SRV and all the Tellurium spikes are on the floor, why can't I pick them up with the collector from above? Any ideas?
check the range of your limpets to be 800m or whichever altitude you're flying at +10-20% 1Km should be enough if flying at 750m
Do you have particular opinions of flak vs. missiles? I've been doing it with missiles, but I'm thinking you may know something that I don't know...
I tried missiles first and found the blast radius didn't break off that many materials versus Flak. Flak seems to have a bigger area of effect in this case.
@@CMDR_E.android Nice. I'll try that. Thank you.
@@CMDR_E.android Second to that limpet trick, using the flak was a brilliant idea, I always assumed it didn't effect stuff like that honestly. I am glad I was wrong.
Bro saved us
is this already outdated? trying it right now, trees dont dissapear even at 990m distance, limpets keept crashing into stuff and dying.
o7 cmdr. What about flechette or missiles ?
200 hours of ED and i never saw that remote flak weapon you are using. Where can i get this thing?
I'm a returning ED player who quit before Odyssey. Can anyone tell me where to get selenium in Horizons?

anyone know if this works with the coloured pre-engineered flak launcher? I'm getting no valid collection targets 😞
I'm not having any luck with that one either. I haven't used flak launchers before so thought maybe I'm doing it wrong but I let go when it goes red so 🤷♂
I found out the pre-engineered ones with the colours don’t do any damage 😂. Swap for regular ones and it works.
@@hjwtest7050 Yup, I bought some regular ones and it works great. I did one reset to desktop to get the trees to regen materials and filled up on Selenium before I had collected everything.
EDMaterials is gone apparently.
Hm, I am getting many manganese from these and not so much selenium, how come?
The majority is Manganese in my experience. You can tell your limpets to ignore them, or better yet, trade them down or cross trade them before you go, because you know you'll be loading up on it.
What a legend!
Has anyone attempted this in an anaconda?
Not able to get em to pop with the flak launcher.
Same
@@monstro8171 Sorry to hear that you're having trouble! Are you seeing the target reticle turn red when firing flak?
same problem here and yes reticle changes and still not popping the trees@@CMDR_E.android
So I was trying this at HIP 36601 on the Crystals, and I couldn't seem to get any of the clusters to crack, I had to get in my SRV... which apparently brining the scorpion was a mistake. Neither the flak nor does the Surge Repeater seem to break the crystals, and I have to use the Aculeus Launcher?
Am I missing something here, or is this normal for the crystals? Does the flak method only work on the trees?
EDIT: ... I am a dumbass, I need to actually drive around to see the cluster and shoot it! But I still can't seem to get the flak to do it?
EDIT EDIT: .... ._. okay yeah, its working I was just a dumb dumb, thankie for the guide.
How did you get it to work? When I try the flak it doesn't find any target and flies off into space?
I have the same issue. Im at HIP 36601 shooting flak at the crystals on teh ground but noting happens? How did you fix this?
@@GohanSama you wont actually see the crystals break off the only way you'll know is when the limpets dart off to go retreieve. I usually fire at around 300m a few shots and then back away to around 600m so the limpets wont break as often.
@@dressari3732 You are correct. My mistake was that I expected some sort of feedback from the shot. Also, with the first sets of shots I was very unlucky and I ended up destroying the materials, so my limpets didn't react. After reload I shot only 1 flak and then sent out limpets and it worked.
More videos plsss
Why the fuck are there two different sets of coordinates?
Tried this with meta alloy, aspx, xbox series x…. Failed miserably. Limpets just kept hitting the planet or i was “too far” to trigger them picking up.
ANY SUGGESTIONS??
holy what am i watching..... i see this so late
thats so dumb yet so genious yet so dumb yet so genious
Playing from PS. Does it work on Horizon version too?
edmaterials down making this tut totally obsolote.
PC ONLY
never knew about that cool.
Thanks, this is a great Idea
You're welcome!
OMG, need to try :)
Very helpful!
