Hello it's Ricardo and I'm still playing elite dangerous beyond now the Guardian
sites are getting an awful lot of interest at the moment and I visited one
recently and did a video on that when it was first deployed when the update
dropped a couple of weeks ago but despite that I thought I'd go and head
on over and take a look at one of some of the other bases of which there are
three currently at the moment where you have the information or so I thought I'd
head on over to the Col 173 sector qu - Oh d6 - 25 and I'll put all that in the
comments now as you can probably see or have a look at the architecture
effectively the same though the layout of the base is distinctly different the
positioning of the data pylons that you activate once you put a relic near the
central device are different they're not as symmetrical as what they were in some
of the other systems all that being said though it's not too hard to turn around
and you know find them you just have to drive around with the main structure
activated and once it is activated they'll start to eventually erupt out of
the ground and I think you can add you can have a good look at this sort of
thing as well from using the external camera and having an external camera
vantage point landing close to the Guardian structure is pretty
straightforward there are some spaces in this particular
system on this particular planet as opposed to some of the other locations
very little bit you know difficult to land your ship even though I'm back in
the ASP I was gonna bring the Anaconda over as though some people on my discord
server we're turning around and saying oh don't take your anaconda over there
you'll have to park miles away and drive to and it's just a nightmare so
generally as well you're gonna find the obelisks that going to give you some
sort of data and information but what you're
generally there for right you there for that weapon blueprint on you well that's
what we're all here for we're not here for the benefit of our health and yes
it's a lovely set piece that frontier developments of put in the game for us
but that's what we're after we're after Guardian weapons and this is going to be
a right old bit of a grind to go and make sure you get all the requirements
and all that the blueprint segments for those weapons so you can then go to a
guardian tech broker and get that weapon constructed so you're gonna find dotted
around this area gonna find urns you're gonna find totems I went to one of the
older Guardian sites and picked up two of each anyway as part of the old Ram
tarbush mission so I have a cargo hold full of alien artifacts that I can use
to manipulate the obelisks and gain some data it goes without saying these
Guardian sentinels they're the new pain in the in the commander's proverbial
rear as soon as you drive past the location they're gonna spawn they're
gonna spawn up and they're going to attack you they're gonna keep you the
benefit is some sort of like plasma burst and if you're really unlucky you
haven't shot them quick enough you're gonna get into fire missiles and they'll
take your shields out and knock you about a bit but all this we've seen in
the in the past videos and it goes without saying that you know it's quite
a bleak area you know sometimes it's shrouded in mist sometimes it isn't
depending on the time of day when you have to come to the Guardian site you're
also going to find power conduits as well hidden around in the structures as
we found in some of the other videos also by destroying the Guardian
sentinels you're gonna get Guardian technology as well
which you can then scoop up and as you can see on the screen this is one of the
eruption points for one of the pylons that you have to shoot in order to
charge the system so as you're driving around find one zoom up get your
bearings get your bearings so you know where it is have a look around it as
well see if there's any items around that you can manipulate against some of
the the obelisks that are found nearby
now typically I found the graphics of these Guardian sites be really good I
find it very atmospheric I find it lends itself nice to the
storyline of the game though you know it is like I said a little bit grindy you
know and as you can see going back to decode those obelisks and go and go back
and fall and back and for your ship to do it can be a little bit laborious but
then again nothing should come easy in the game I think if you cast your mind
back to the games of old back in the 80s where it was three lives and that was
the end of it you know now we as gamers I think we expect you know things to run
a little bit more logically a little bit more you know hand to hand the decoding
of those obelisks are pretty straightforward once you've got a good
cargo of all the items in your ship and you just keep popping back and forth
like you did in some of the other rammed our missions and decoding that that data
the pylons that you have to shoot and charge up to activate the device as I've
said a rep from the ground once you activate the two main pylons by the
central structure this central structure will then spew forth an orb which you
can then scan using the datalink scanner on your SRV now once you've shot all the
pylons and you can see the big cross in the middle of the ground there with the
receptacle holder for a relic a relic has got to go in there so be warned you
need to get a relic get it over there and I usually go and collect one and
drop it off near to the area I then go around I shoot all the pylons obviously
once I found them and it'll take you a couple of goals to get the lay of the
land of this map and then shoot the Guardians go back put that into the into
the receptacle that relic into the receptacle and then you're in business
now finding the other pylons and they could potentially erupt from the
ground is pretty straightforward and you can you can deduce that by from an
aerial view using the camera however on this particular map it's not as
symmetrical as what the other Guardian site I went to was which I think was the
6 6 3 5 HD 635 location because one of the pylons is slap-bang right in the
center of the map you've got the two at the top next to the structure then
you've got to either side left and right of the of the area okay and then you've
got one in an annex right down the bottom and then the final one the sixth
one which took me a bit of time there you are is right
slap in the centre so that effectively is something to be a little bit weary of
okay so once you get a bit say more gear shoot it all your pylons will be charged
and then it's time for you to get yourself over to the main structure as
it says everything's charged and drop that relic off in the receptacle now you
are going to be attacked by guardians and Guardian sentinels that goes without
saying I got to say it I mean these Guardian sentinels I mean more
aggressive let's face it more aggressive than their thyroid counterparts I mean
with the thyroids you've seriously got to go over there and and give them a bit
of damage before they're gonna turn around and get all aggressive they just
carry on doing their own little thing don't but these it's attack straightaway
which makes you wonder hmmm the thyroids the bad ones you don't know there could
be a huge twist a huge plot twist coming here now I've activated the central
structure as you can see there the or Bazaar wrapped it from its its its
resting place on that sort of altar like structure
we zoom back as well you get the entire sense and scope of an activated alien
base I mean no matter how many times I do see it I do think it is quite a
spectacular in-game event and set-piece and you can see there you know the
dispersion of the pylons and their location on this particular map yeah
great you've been to see you know a hidden
guardian structure somewhere that's still working and not you know an
ancient ruin like a bastion of Guardian civilization somewhere far off in the
galaxy somewhere that you could eventually get to and see all this stuff
in its prime now that would be something anyway there you go I'm gonna go and
scan that ancient data terminal and get my guardian blueprint and there you go
I've got my segment time to rinse repeat and do it again I've been Ricardo and
this has been the Guardian ruins in the coal won 7-3 sector thanks very much for
watching and check back soon for more videos if you haven't already done so
hit that notification and subscribe link and help me out that way that would be
fantastic see you soon fly safe
you
