Exotic extraction
Vapor Condenser Exotics
A Vapor Condenser provides an alternative Exotic route that requires defending an extraction event.
WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Vapor Condenser Exotics
Vapor Condenser sites on eligible prospects.
Before you go
- Vapor Condenser and its required fuel or power setup.
- Combat equipment and supplies for the defense.
- Inventory space and a route to return the output for extraction.
Farming steps
- Check that the current prospect supports Vapor Condenser extraction.
- Bring the condenser, its required operating supplies, and defensive equipment to the chosen site.
- Place the condenser where it can be operated and defended.
- Power it using the required setup and begin the extraction event.
- Stay near the site and defend the condenser against the attacks that occur during operation.
- After the event completes, collect the Exotic output from the condenser.
- Return the Exotics to the dropship and complete prospect extraction.
- Bring enough combat supplies to remain at the site throughout the defense instead of starting and leaving.
- Keep this route distinct in your plan from cave nodes and deep deposits; each uses different equipment and steps.
Repeat, collect and use
Repeat only where the prospect offers a usable condenser and you have supplies for another defense. Do not treat it as an unlimited source independent of prospect rules.
Common mistakes
- Starting without the condenser's operating supplies; prepare its power or fuel requirements first.
- Leaving the site during the defense; remain ready to protect the equipment through the event.
- Ending the prospect before securing output; collect it and extract successfully.
When to stop or switch
Stop once the event's output is collected and meets your Exotic target, or if you cannot safely continue the defense.
