Sorry guys, I can no longer go back to this guide and update it. If anyone has valid information, feel free to PM me and I'll add to the thread. Updates: -Zinc list is now in order from least awarded to most awarded. -The guide now includes all planets, ships, missions, trade routes and parts! Woo! -Now included are the locations where you can purchase ship building materials! Also, work in progress is the list and ability of special (rare) weapons and parts. The numbers in round brackets indicate respective effectiveness, names in square brackets are placeholders for equipment I haven't been awarded yet. Work in progress - will be finished tomorrow evening. (Make it look much nicer too) (I'm sorry it's taking so long to update, life happened and I need a few days to clear stuff up before getting back to gaming) So, I present to you my guide: ta-dah! It's not complete at this stage, I'm missing four planets, but it will be very soon and it's a lot easier to edit it on this site. Most information is listed in alphabetical order. If I get enough motivation I can rearrange the Materials Awarded from least to most, and just little things like that. Anyways... What's in this guide? Trade Routes Ship locations Equipment (Parts) Weapons Materials (from missions) Trade Routes The number in brackets indicates profit per item. Ship Locations There are usually two versions at each station. To keep size down I only posted the names once. Equip Locations (Parts) Weapon Locations Materials Obtained from missions. Special Parts / Weapons Obtained from missions. Is there anything I missed or anything you guys would like me to add?
What's the best location/quest to get zinc? I'm stuck before the first 3x cruiser 3x destroyer 3x cruiser battle. Is Wistrain the best place to grind zinc from my position? *Edit: nup, don't have Beronerra. I don't want to grind 10 missions just for a new ship!
Typically it's the planets in the last star system you unlocked. The list is in alphabetical order atm, so I can't help you off the top of my head, but let me have a look... Edit: If you have it unlocked, Beronerra is (probably) the best place to grind for it. Edit 2: Anattrin, Ryschin give double of Wistrain. I'll check the others and rearrange the list in the new order. Edit 3: Sorry about the delay, dinnertime. The Zinc list should now be in the least -> most awarded order.
Thank you. This was useful. As for adding to it sure. This may take some time, but locations of rare weapons, and items like the juicy "extinction 14" lol 6k damage. I'm wondering if there is a rare BC shield breaker. Going to go planet hopping now. Again thanx for the work.
I went to Jupiter but I can't find place to buy material. Do you have to be at certain stage of the game to buy material
There's no planet called Jupiter At this stage, I've completed the game so I can't answer that, but I don't see why it would be restricted. They are sold in the Market area, in amongst the normal commodities.
Lol, stupid iPhone auto correct. The planet is called jupity. The guide says I can purchase zinc from jupity. But I can't find it from market-buy
I guess that does mean you can't buy it early. I'd say most likely it shows up after you beat the game... Interesting.
Hi, you will not see the commodities because you must first update your app in itunes. Sunfish issued a new update.
Yeah dude, you haven't updated your game from the iTunes store. Once you do, the materials should become available right away.
Golden Trade Routes I've noticed that the prices for the trade route are diminishing rapidly. Is there a way to reset them?
It's not the prices - it's the amount of stock at the starting space station. It depletes if you go over the route several times. If you want to grind money, the best thing to do is work out a path of several "Golden" routes and go over that instead.
Need a little help here, I keep on getting owned during missions and especially in early storyline. The Archangels is my flagship(as I have no clue how to change it). The Archangels II get owned very early in missions and the virtues doesn't have enough firepower to be much use beyond being a decoy(it also tends to jerk off in the corner until its attacked). Is there a better choice of parts or should I switch the TS for another FG? FYI I'm stuck on the part where you attack the 2nd Galactic Union transport fleet at Tartrin, step 17.

If you stuck at a mission, it means is time to upgrade your ship. What do you guys equip with your ship anyways? I use 2 shield penetrate 4 laser and 1 missle
Echoseven, I know you are still working on the guide and if you aren't already planning on doing this, I have a suggestion. Could you add to the list of ship type/location, the cost/materials required to build them? Stats would be nice too, but not really necessary. I don't know if these figures are consistent or not, but I would tend to think so.
