The best and fastest way to get a good Reactor + Gold + Kuiper + XP.
Best grind.
This guide is only for Hard Mode.
To do this players need to use Valby, Hypothermia Viessa, or Venom Synthesis Freyna for optimized results.
I use the base Valby since it doesn’t require a Transcendent module, and at times I use my Freyna.
A reactor with Skill Cooldown and Skill Duration Up is good but not required. Descendant Modules often are enough for the task.
The Method
The fastest method to get reactors is farming mobs in Outpost. The Outpost mobs spawn fast and once players kill the last anchor a new batch spawns. Faster kills more potential for the best reactors. This includes gold, XP, and Kuiper.
This is an example I’m in Agna Vermillion Waster farming for Frost Mechanics Reactor.
The objective is easy, to run around areas where the mobs spawn without killing the boss. The usual Valby XP runs.
Take note: Some outposts do have melee bosses, like Frozen Valley Outpost but that can be replaced by Command Relay Mission which also rewards players with Polyatomic materials. Also, not all areas have an outpost.
The disadvantage of the farm is that it doesn’t drop code analyzers. Also the schedules might not be in the players favor or location
To further optimize results:
Bring Gold/Firearm proficiency (Gold is the real endgame)
Bring Item Acquisition/Equipment drop rate
Bring Kuiper or module drop rate
Bring Character EXP (Optional of course)
Additional Tips:
If players want to further min-max while checking and clearing inventory. They can kill the boss for Amorphous or Stabilizers and that gives a 1 minute timer for resets. Back then it was 5 minutes so not worth it.
It is also an easy reset-able farm by going in and out and can be aborted by the ESC menu.
Make sure to go Private or in group of 4 players.
Good luck! I got 3 out of 4 best Descendant reactors using this method. With potential Amorphous and Stabilizers I believe this method is the best way in terms of gold, xp, kuiper, and reactors.
