    Heya,
    I have issues getting kamacite ore. Got some in the first days, but now I got nothing for weeks. Didn't change anything at the subs. It comes from sectors V and Y, doesn't it? Just to be sure.

    Just curious , what is the point of the R50 sites as they don't seem to have anything really worth checking out or am I missing something ?

    It all depends on what you consider worth it. They have some unique housing items, but they're small.

    I've run into this also. I've had ships going to nothing but the 2 sectors known for Kamacite yet they've come back with everything but Kamacite. I've a whopping 13 ore since these areas were added in 4.5.

    Kamacite Ore does indeed exclusively drop from the Rimilala Shelf (V) and Flickering Dip (Y). We've speculated in this thread that the minimum requirement for the item is around 135 Surveillance (at least, it has been the most consistent so far). The drop rate is on the rarer side, but having either a faster boat or a hauling boat to hit the zones usually yields more drops over time. Like I mentioned above, a shiptype that I might suggest looking into would be a CWWC ship due to their tendency to explore two anomalies per zone during their 3 day, 11 hour voyages.

    "Dead Man's Chest" found in the Stone Temple. Also imaged: "Glamour Prisms" and "Wool Top" from The Upwell, and HQ "Darksteel Ore" from Stone Temple.



    Sub parts are CCSyC.

    Thanks! Funny thing is, I got some kamacite. In the meantime, I changed nothing at the subs. And now they don't bring anything. Can't really explain this lol.

    It's a dice roll every time. The ore is just on wheel'o'loot as long as you meet the minimum surveillance, but it doesn't guarantee the drop. I think I've gotten ore two of the dozen-ish times at 135 surv.

    Am I correct in concluding that 135 is the consensus for minimum surveillance for rare loot (kamacite, Otter, etc.)?
