Post subject:  What is exotic matter and how do you get it?

I am trying to fulfill a mission and it will not let me start as I do not have enough exotic matter.

after you get to a certain level (not sure what level... prolly somewhere around 80-ish) you'll start getting exotic matter in your mineral shipments
it doesn't take up space, and you cannot sell it back to the game for credits


alternatively, people will trade you 10 EM (exotic matter) for 1 Ku (kurenite)... or 100 EM for 1 CTP (complex tech part)

If you do not have the money to pay to get em, I may be able to help. Show me a screenshot of your credit count, and if it is low enough, I will give you 1000em free of charge. My way of helping newer people.

I have 6.2B at 532. At least until by 4.8B upkeep hits in a little bit. So yeah, you're doing pretty good...

actually you get it in ALL ranks, you just don't start getting a A LOT of it UNTIL rank 80-ish
so if you want exotic matter, try improving your mining.

I specifically remember getting exotic matter for the prejor mission chain and I was LESS THAN rank 80. just very little though.

you can receive EM as levels as low as level 15. But at that level, you'll rarely come across them. The higher your level the more likely you'll get EM.

I don't know if this is just random, but I've noticed that when I claim large amounts of my shipment after getting online, I seem to get less EM than if I claim the shipment every hour when I'm online.

Post subject:  Re: What is exotic matter and how do you get it?

it depends on the planets you own.
the more rare the planet, the better the EM you get from it.
if you have a bunch of common planets, your EM could be next to zero.
if you have a few rare planets then you should be reciving EM in every mineral shipment.

I can confirm you get EM at less than 80. I've been getting it in my shipments since less than Rank 20 - Usually 1-2 per every pull or every other pull (but then again I only have the cargo open to receive about 200 minerals/pull).

Right now I have 664 EM at a rank less than 30 only from my planets, so it comes in very slowly but it does come in :).

Just did 4 test pulls, 3x 270 MU, 1x48 MU.

1 EM, 1 EM, a Pawlacite and Hydium (both of which are rare at my rank, so I'd take them over the EM), and 1 EM respectively.

show me data that you have collected that proves the rarity of the planets is important...

as far as i can tell, EM is just a part of the mineral distribution tables for your level... rarity of your planets has no effect (in fact, for all practical purposes, the rarity of a planet has no bearing on anything in game... except to tell you your chances of seeing a similar planet on another scan)

Rank 680-ish, and I try to keep 200 billion in the bank. Upkeep of 8.5 billion with builder on.

And I got EM very early in the game as well. Not much at all, and I certainly didn't NEED it very early on, but I did get some.

I thought we answered the question over a month ago.
