Last week u/seriously_rare posted here with some screenshots to find a 5x outpost on Kreet, a moon of Anseln, in the Narion system.
The resources are:
- Helium-3
- Alkanes
- Iron
- Lead
- Silver
Narion is a Level 1 system, so ideal for early game when your character is quite squshy and vulnerable to high level enemies, and at a time when most likely you've not yet unlocked the ability to build outposts in extreme environments or otherwise hostile worlds. In fact, Kreet even has breathable air and relatively ok environmental temperatures at night, so you don't need a burdensome suit on at all times!
NOTE: Narion is a Freestar Collective system, so you may be subject to contraband scans when you enter it - ensure that any illegal, illicit or stolen goods are safely stowed or sold before you head there.
Kreet Itself is the moon of a gas giant with 8 resources, including atmospheric HE-3, meaning you don't need to find a circle of harvestable helium3 on the ground with your scanner, any outpost you build can just have he3 harvesters deployed within the circle.
To start, I'd simply recommend landing literally anywhere, and then scanning all the nearby resources to unlock and better distinguish their colours on the planetary map - this gives you more reference points when you're trying to zone on on the exact spot you need as your landing site.
So, for me anyway, you're looking in the norther hemisphere for this particular shape of nothing, ie no resource element is there:
And, just below it, you'll see some HnCn, Pb and Ag
The imporant thing is that we're not aiming for the deadcenter of the top of the "finger" of light colour, but over to the right. We want these tiny pixles of light colour on the left of our circle
When correctly place, the landing site diamond will look like this
take note of how the left point is above and slightly more left that that edge of light colour
As you see we're aiming our landing zone to the right of that triangle region of lead/Pb, up and to the left of the island of silver / Ar
You'll also note that the right point is just a tiny bit above the highest northerly point of that blotch of silver / Ar thats to the right.
When you'll land, you'll have this hill in front of you with three prominent bumps breaking the skyline.
You will then exit your ship and make your way towards that hill
Head towards the middle of the three downard ridges of that hill, following the Iron/Fe thats on the ground in front of you
You'll come to two large boulders, with a gap between them, thats lined up with the middle vertical ridge in front of you.
Drop your outpost market between those two boulders
Hopefully, you've not got the right spot and have earned yourself a nice early game outpost.
Heres the location on the area map
This is just the second outpost "how to" I've done, so please let me know if theres anything vague in this that I could improve etc!
