keep in mind: once you kill the guardians they will take a LONG time to respawn, more than enough to mine out most if not all of the vexnium (assuming you only have 1 miner turret)
Thanks for the guide, I found one system and I greatly underestimated those creatures. Happily, I used tips and strategy you've told so I managed to deal with them in solo, and got that precious ore without loss (except for the time and probes I've spent to find unvisited anomaly)
Just ran my first VX today solo, it took a few tries to get the bait just one guardian out without taking too much damage and was overall pretty stressful, but in the end it was definitely worth the 34 Vex and 3 shards
Simple You target one guard at a time using a beam frigate/destroyer When you get hulled too low warp away and let your hull and shield recover Use hull booster
I have an idea to include for solo mining with a destroyer, large beams with most if not all small/normal turrets being miner, though impractical as a frigate like phalanx with one miner and all beam otherwise might do better
For some reason, When I found a VX anomaly, There isn't any Vexnium ores, But there is dormant guardians, Its in a system no body traveled in, Is this just a bug or am I not looking close enough?
Nice video, just found out about this its mind blowing there;s so many details and different things. Also how do you aim anywhere and your mouse isnt locked?
@@nrares21 sorry for necroposting, but small ships can't "aim anywhere without the mouse lock", the person in this video is using a phalanx, which I believe is a frigate or corvette class. The controls are different for the 2 classes.
You just Inspect the beacon, it leads you to a cluster of systems based on Star Color. It'll be up to you to find the system it leads you to and warp there.
@@Pathfinding do you think it’s worth the time to look for it or should you just sell the beacon? And what ship do you recommend to use to defeat the ancient ships? (I think there are ancient enemy ships there right?)
Think of a beacon as a lootbox. Sometimes you can get awesome loot, but sometimes you can get garbage. It's completely up to what you want to do. Ancient enemies are pretty weak right now, so that is not your concern.
Hello, I have a question. Since the guardians don't have shields wouldn't it be better to use rail guns? Just asking and am not sure, and thank you for the great content, it helps out a ton, and is actually useful unlike many other roblox youtubers! Edit: Can i do this with a barracuda instead? I don't want to grind the phalanx, I need to repair kodiak and I really want a conciliator
How can I get a hull booster 4? I can only manufacture as high as hull booster 3 and the wiki page has nothing about the different tiers of war mods yet
does the anomaly despawn when all the ore is mined or does it only despawn after the guardians are destroyed, cause I found an anomaly and I can find a lot of guardians but I can't find the ore
I would suggest against using a Kodiak to rush in against these anomalies as it cannot take down the ??? ships. However, if you do use a beam Halo with Hull Booster 3-4 that can also work as long as you are very careful with your distance. Good luck!
you can recover them with insurance but this is not very useful if it’s an expensive ship like a frigate and up. You either pay half the materials or some credits
can i beat these vexnium guards with a team of 1 destroyer (loxodon) with t3 cannons and beams, a frigate (barracuda) with t2 cannons and beams, 1 knifejaw with repeaters and cannons, a radix with cannons and beams, and an edict with repeaters and beams? it's probably overkill i guess, but i can't be too careful. edit: it was overkill
@@Pathfinding lol there were just 2 guardians, i was just very nervous because i just got the barracuda. One of us basically mined a vexnium with an ozark, then warped to a wh to spectate us via discord, then we just camped them real hard and beamed them with just a few shots. Tbh it was very dissapointing, they both focused fire on me at close range and all they could do is do 20% shield when they both shot, and did little to no damage to the loxodon. Hell, even the drones and stuff inside the system were more exciting. Hoping for another VX anomaly, with more guardians because it was kinda boring lol
It functions like normal ore, but I highly doubt staying there is worth the risk and time trying to warp in and out to mine. Safer to get a frigate first and do it according to the guide.
Yo im about to solo this in an Eos with a chaingun and flak, ill report back Edit, i chicked out, 10k hull!? The VX anomoly is in Abromox, there is a WH from Ar'try to Winla-var If you are online, here you go
My fellow ex-faction member found that wormhole 2 weeks ago. It was an incredibly long lasting wormhole. It can last for 2 weeks(it should have dissipated by now)
The spawnrate is fine for the long run, though in short term here there's many people looking for them, making them rarer, but it will fix itself with time, I suppose
Very well made, and high quality, needs more views.

Wouldn’t say the MOST, but you’re right.

definitely easy to solo-
*gets 5 guards*
FUU
Simple
You target one guard at a time using a beam frigate/destroyer
When you get hulled too low warp away and let your hull and shield recover
Use hull booster
@@mrbichr8492 does hull booster recover hull even if your ship doesn’t regenerate by itself?
@deezle
Hull is unable to recover on its own,
But hull booster will allow it to regenerate at a fast pace
Good if you are in a tight situation
@@mrbichr8492 sounds op with echelon lol
Eh, I got a 5 guard vx in a halo
It was my first VX no less.
heres a tip: the coil guns not only out range the guardians, they do extra damage due to their kinetic boost :D
thats great and all but teach me how to find them
All luck mate, there is nothing I can do to boost your luck.

Bruh I saw you in harbor few days ago and didn't know you are a yter (a pretty nice one)
I have an idea to include for solo mining with a destroyer, large beams with most if not all small/normal turrets being miner, though impractical as a frigate like phalanx with one miner and all beam otherwise might do better

Some people can mine out the Vexnium without doing the guards since the Yukon can mine it fast enough. That is probably what happened.
@@Pathfinding Oh ok
Those unknown ships are called Crystalline Guardians
would you recommend doing this anomalie with 2 people, one running a blue tier corvette and one with a luminar or ozark?
I wouldn't risk it. A Luminar will get one shot.
Use at least a frigate class ship to fight the guards
Decent guide. Thanks!
Thanks for the Guide now i have 24 Vexnium (thats the half i did Duo for that)
Nice video, just found out about this its mind blowing there;s so many details and different things.
Also how do you aim anywhere and your mouse isnt locked?
Make sure you aren’t using first person view. Hit v to change it.
@@Pathfinding aight ill check it out thanks!
@@nrares21 sorry for necroposting, but small ships can't "aim anywhere without the mouse lock", the person in this video is using a phalanx, which I believe is a frigate or corvette class.
The controls are different for the 2 classes.
can yukon with full mining turrets and 4 ancient coils tank mine this?
Yes, if you can kite correctly. Otherwise you might not be able to mine all of them in one go without sustaining heavy damage.
@@Pathfinding omg lol you actually replied alright i will keep this in mind thanks
Wait, just a mining turret? Does vexnium not produce loose ore that needs a tractor beam?
It does, but you’re better off flying and manually collect it so you still have the firepower to fight the guards.
gamer guide, just know that you can mulltibox a kodiak too!
Would it be a good idea to have there be a destroyer come in and then after the unknown ships are ded a Yukon warps in?
It definitely works if you have two people or multibox a Yukon.
@@Pathfinding I’m asking because I don’t wanna ruin the mining effectiveness on the venixium with crappy turrets and no mining buff
It doesn't matter, the amount of ore from one vexnium rock is always constant at 12-20 ores per rock.
@@Pathfinding so your saying better quality mining doesn’t get anything better for you?
It only increases the rate of ores being mined, amount of ore in a VX rock is set to 12-20 no matter what ship you use or what monument buff you have.
Are you cowssaymoo1, or was that the other person, cause they destroyed my honey badger a few days ago

If a guard gets close to you I think it starts laughing
Me : ooooo vex
My friend : ooooo OUR vex
Me : *gets into my Paragon-X* MY vex
Lol
what if i use mako mk2 with lightweight and afterburner
Never tried... wouldn’t recommend trying either...
Chances of Dying? 95%
chances of death is more than 98 percent, dont try unless you really want to since you WILL get 1 shotted
We all forgot only mining turrers work on vex ores.
Can you do a ancient beacon guide, how to use it to find the ancient loot?
You just Inspect the beacon, it leads you to a cluster of systems based on Star Color. It'll be up to you to find the system it leads you to and warp there.
@@Pathfinding do you think it’s worth the time to look for it or should you just sell the beacon? And what ship do you recommend to use to defeat the ancient ships? (I think there are ancient enemy ships there right?)

I just went in with with my ozark, mined a few pieces with strip miner then came back later after taking 50% hull to finih
Yes, if you know what you’re doing with a ship, you can mine a small amount and leave like you did,

Edit: Can i do this with a barracuda instead? I don't want to grind the phalanx, I need to repair kodiak and I really want a conciliator
Railguns are better after the Ring Update, yes. Any frigate with a hull booster is fine as long as you’re careful with your hull.
@@Pathfinding Alrighty then, thank you a lot for your response, helps out a ton :D
Is a conciliator good for Vex guards?If so which turrets do i use?Beams or cannons
Both are fine if you’re using a hull booster Conciliator.
How can I get a hull booster 4? I can only manufacture as high as hull booster 3 and the wiki page has nothing about the different tiers of war mods yet
You can purchase them from FOs for a base price of 6750 or purchase them from players for a higher price.
@@Pathfinding thanks! I think I'll just stick with Hull booster 3, I'm confident I won't mess up that badly and I'd rather hold onto resources/credits
Many thanks, very helpfull :)
Glad to have helped! :)
What use does vexnium even have?i i'm just wondering.
Must have Vexnium to build destroyers.
Fun facts: guardian more dmg to shield but less to hull
does the anomaly despawn when all the ore is mined or does it only despawn after the guardians are destroyed, cause I found an anomaly and I can find a lot of guardians but I can't find the ore
They should despawn when ores are gone.
well I couldn't find the ore and I left the anomaly twice to see if it would disapear
I'm unsure then.
@@Pathfinding If it's still there the anomaly is in Epsilon Tayia, it's prob gone now though
Would using coilguns on these be a good idea?
Yes.
How much health do the guardians have and can I face them with a halo
If yes then do I use beams or connons
What warmed is best
The amount of hull a guardian have is around 10k. Please watch the Solo Guide for the recommended meta! ^^
@@Pathfinding what the hell
what do they drop, its been a long time since last played and I barely have a radix
Guardians drop crystal shards.
@@Pathfinding thanks
Is there any chance to rush mine the vexnium with kodiak?
edit: or with halo with hull booster 3-4
I would suggest against using a Kodiak to rush in against these anomalies as it cannot take down the ??? ships. However, if you do use a beam Halo with Hull Booster 3-4 that can also work as long as you are very careful with your distance. Good luck!
do manufactured ships disappear after they get destroyed or do they stay in your inventory forever? Im kinda new to the game
They will be gone once they are destroyed.
you can recover them with insurance but this is not very useful if it’s an expensive ship like a frigate and up. You either pay half the materials or some credits
oh, so that is what it is. i think i accidently found it then got blasted by the guardian.
hi citadel.
Oh dear...
can i solo em with coilguns?
Depends on your ship. Coilguns are perfectly viable though.
can i beat these vexnium guards with a team of 1 destroyer (loxodon) with t3 cannons and beams, a frigate (barracuda) with t2 cannons and beams, 1 knifejaw with repeaters and cannons, a radix with cannons and beams, and an edict with repeaters and beams?
it's probably overkill i guess, but i can't be too careful.
edit: it was overkill
Lol yeah, in that case the Loxodon should warp in first and tank for the rest, but you’re fine anyways lol
@@Pathfinding lol there were just 2 guardians, i was just very nervous because i just got the barracuda.

More edits,
I managed to grab a piece then run!!!
Nice!
Hey Man,is a Judicator good to beat them(i use beams so i won't take all that damage)?
Beam Judicator and Hull Booster should also work.
@@Pathfinding Alright thank you man
i went to a vx anomaly they was no ship or vexinium ore
It has been mined out before you were there, then. For some reason, VX anomalies do not despawn until after 48 hours of first contact with a player.
had to use subtitles because the music is way too loud for me to hear your voice, either way nice video
Thanks for the feedback, I’ll take into account the music for next time. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Couldn’t you just get a tanky ship and equip a bunch of mining turrets and tank most of the shots while mining the vex or is that a terrible idea
You won’t be able to mine everything, but yes, you can use a Yukon to mine one rock and leave.
What lvl beams did you use for the Phalanx?
4, but 3 is enough.
@@Pathfinding okay
I just managed to mine 50 vex with my yukon by just hiding behind rocks and out of their range
Will it be possible to just dodge their shots?
It is very difficult to dodge their shots. One mistake and it’ll be game over.
@@Pathfinding oh is it possible to hide at ores?
Hold up, Do I have to necessarily fight the guardians to mine it, or they spawn after I ended mining? The wiki is confusing me
They spawn and attack you when you start mining the Vexnium.
@@Pathfinding So I can sneak some ores before they will come to beat me up? Btw how hard is it to mine it? Does it take a lot of time?
It functions like normal ore, but I highly doubt staying there is worth the risk and time trying to warp in and out to mine. Safer to get a frigate first and do it according to the guide.
@@Pathfinding And what if I bring kodiak with health regen warmod?
I would still not recommend it, takes too much time. If you want to give it a shot, go for it.
why is it in 5fps just curious
The computer used to record this was a 10 year old MacBook Pro. Hopefully the new computer will run it faster…
@@Pathfinding oh wow, pre-christmas i used a 2013 macbook pro, it ran 60fps
Imagine being in ENVY, cant relate
Id just get my justice tank the ships mine the ores after the ships are down and insatntly get pirated in unsecure
Well uh... warp logging is always an option...
