Asteroid fields. The quickest is north west in fault logic (the one connected to holy vision)...or you may have luck in trinity sanctum III in the field on the east side of the map. Any field can have them, but these were the most successful for me.

Thank you.

And what do I need to do with the asteriods mine them? Sorry I've literally never done Crystal mining

Ahh nice one.
Yes I can see why peopel do this I have gotten quite a few valuatable crystals pretty quickly.

Found 2 of the ones I need so far so hopefully wont be at this too long.

Yes, even nerfed, in the first few hours it can get you set up real quick. On release you could make about 10 million easy in an hour - you would constantly find the most valuable white crystals. You never see those anymore.
 
I need more help sorry:

Still on the paranid civil war quest. I have given boso all the bits and also provided the station all the wares, then the paranid guy talks you you.

Anyway, the next stage of the quest states collect: Paranid Relegious Tract

The mission waypoint gets me to a station in Sacred Relic, I land there, but then the trail goes cold.

Any ideas?

You need to speak to someone. I think my guy was on the other side of the dock by foot. Had to take the travelator. Have to admit I can’t remember that bit too well sorry. That or I picked it up off the dock.

No wonder I was having problems it was very definitely bugged.

I loaded up today docked there and it was fine, the waypoint was there and the people were there ready to talk to.
 
Do you actually get anything from completing the Paranid civil war quest?

I've done it, but didn't seem to get any reward other than the steam achievement.

I liked the quest up until you needed to supply the fleet and then station etc, just became a ball ache imo.

I'm actually quite disappointed in general with all of the storyline missions, the PHQ, Havitka, then this one. I've just got the split one left to do.

Is it possible to start the game hostile to all the major factions, and then possible to actually progress?

I think it would be fun to try and survive from basically nothing and just using the pirate stations etc.

No reward. You either get a new pirate faction that fight with the rest of the paranid factions or you unite them all leading to a very quiet game. The same plot story outcome is similar. I agree, the outcomes are a little underwhelming.

Not that I know of, but that does sound like fun. The ZYA start is one of the most hostile starts I’ve found.

I guess you could just pick the young blood start, shoot up every major faction to -30, except the scale plate and Havitka.

Thinking about it, I think it would be very difficult to progress without keeping at least one major faction friendly, I guess.... It would be possible to board and capture things like builders, because of course you couldn't buy any ships if hostile to all factions.

I'm trying to think if there is any reason it can't be possible. I think you'd find though if you tried it you'd run into something you just can't do without being friendly to at least one major faction.

I think it would be very very difficult. You wouldn’t be able to dock on any stations other than pirate stations. You would need to capture most ships that you would usually buy. Sounds like fun.
