Rewards: 50x Strength 150, Level 170 Artifacts, 100 Flux, 100000 Steel, 250000 XP, Ship: The Eliminator.

The Eliminator:

New technologies have been discovered on a recent mission to Homerus, Azuron. This ship has been nicknamed "The Eliminator" by the people who use it because it is so efficient at killing. The Eliminator's shield batteries and health capacitors are so massive that there was little room for regeneration capabilities on board. The ship's engineers created new engines that enabled the attack speed to be increased higher than ever before. New weapons technology was found in the ship's firing arrangements. The hull of the ship us made with a cobalt-iron alloy that can withstand huge amounts of damage. However, all of these perks come with a cost. Corrosive weapons are barely useable on this ship due to it's horrible corrosive stat.

Hope you like the ship and mission!

Available as soon as the player unlocks Arrenius on warpgate.


Captain, we have received a distress signal around the outer reaches of Durian. We cannot pinpoint the exact location of the signal from this distance, we should head there now before the signal is lost.

Land on Durian main-system warpgate.

Rewards: 0 XP


It appears that the signal is emanating from Honarion, the local renegade base of operations. We can deduce this signal as being a hoax to lure the other fleets towards their deaths. If we are sufficiently strong or we have significant support we may as well land there and send an extraction team at your digression, captain.

Land on Honarion.

Reward: 10000 XP



Captain, whilst having underwent planetary surveillance we found the source of the distress signal. It appears to be a Yellow book, 'Creating an Overmind for dummies'. At the first few pages it states that we should 'Gather sufficient amounts of steel to create a chassis for the vessel.' Seems suspicious, how should we go about this sir?

Obtain 5000 small metal scrap.

Rewards: 500 Steel, 1000 XP



...Next, we have to 'Obtain a stable source of hydrogen based fuel.'

Obtain 2000 Hydrogen Spills.

Reward: 500 Hydrogen Crystals, 1000 XP



Captain, you've have to agree that this is getting totally tedious. We finally only need one more thing, 'A mass of brain tissue'. After this we should probably go to Osho's upgrade shop, we have no idea how to assemble these items despite our expertise in upgrading anomalous artifacts.

Gather 10 brain tissue and land on Oshos upgrade shop in Arrenius.

Rewards: 5 flux, 10000 XP



A strange humming sound can be heard a Osho hands over a strange black orb towards your officers hands, at first startled by the results on the making based from the yellow book.
Crew: "Are you sure you did this correctly? It looks nothing from what we have gathered, where did all that steel and hydrogen go?"
Osho: "Why dont you as it yourselves."
Crew: "What the?"

Um captain, we should maybe listen to whatever it is. I have this lingering feeling that it can kill us if we dont comply...

Kill Mandarom.

Rewards: 1000 Steel, 2000 Hydrogen crystals, 500 XP.


As soon as we handed it the warp drive, it left. Immediately we are bombarded with messages in our F-mail accounts and a distress call on our ships data-banks.

Captain, im pretty sure its the Overmind that left us earlier. The warp drive from Mandarom was pretty broken, something must have went wrong. Do you want to pursue the Overmind to its location, after what it just did to us earlier?

Land on Fulzar warpgate

Rewards: 10000 XP.


I have detected the distress signal towards the direction of Ymer. Its quite infamous for its sidius but we have made it too far in this quest to go back. Shall we proceed to our deaths,<playername>?.
