Hello all! Here is my TLDR I put together for new and returning pilots curious about the Thargoids. I tried to stay away from repeating information best gleaned from Galnet, but would like some feedback before I post it on INARA. Thanks, and fly safe out there CMDR!
How Little We Know
Current Thargoid Active Sites:
Pleiades Nebula (~175ly around Merope)Witch Head Nebula (~75ly around Witch Head Sector IR-W C1-9)Coalsack Nebula (~60ly around Musca Dark Region PJ-P B6-1)California Nebula (~100ly around HIP 18390)
Thargoid Relevant Information:
Thargoids are an ancient insectoid race, millions of years old. They have interacted with humanity twice in our history. The first time we repelled them with a Mycoid virus. The second time we attempted the Proteus Wave, which was a failure and led to the “Thargoid Roar” and loss of HIP 22460. They have seeded worlds with Thargoid Barnacles to produce Meta-Alloys.
Thargoids seem to prefer nebulas and Ammonia-based worlds.
They have had an ancient conflict with the Guardians. If utilizing Guardian technology, Thargoids will attack on sight.
Thargoid regular weapons have phasing capabilities.
Thargoid Special Weapons Technology include 3 known methods of destruction:
– [ ] Lightning; heavily damages shields, as well as immobilizing ship
– [ ] Caustic Missile; if hit, eats away at your hull over time
– [ ] EMP Field; renders technology inoperable if within the wave’s radius.
