It's a very elusive beast... You must keep an eye out constantly for it... It has very good hide/sneak skills. There is no set pattern, or anything to really discern its MO. It might just appear silently3km away as you silently tinker about with your orders. Or underneath a starport. Or it could very well be located deep in the caverns of the Nightsisters, jealously guarded by the Elders and Queen.



I have yet to see this wee beast myself.

It's one of those resources that appears about once every 3-6 months or so. When you do find it, mine the crap out if it...'cause you never know when you'll see it again.

On Bloodfin it seems to spawn every couple months, for awhile it never spawned and lately it seems to be every other month.

It's only spawned once in the few months I've been a DE on Starsider, and that spawn was only on one planet and didn't last long enough at all!

As elusive as it is, once you find some, you should never run out. Last time I saw it on my server, I put 2 large harvesters on it and got 60K units of it. Since we use it at a rate of 12 per level 6 Item storage module, that is enough to make 5000 storage modules. (IncidentlyI am just now down to 150 units of the Lidium I mined in December, and that was only 25K of it, so this 60K i got last month should last awhile)


I dont even bother to look for it anymore, and I wont until I fall below 10K of it. At that point I will still have enough to make over 750 storage modules, and Lidium extrusive will certainly reappear before I make that many.


So have hope. All you need to do is find it once, and you should never run out again if you mine enough of it.

If any DE's on Chimaera need some of this, send me a mail in game. Sitting on 350k of it now, seems a waste really.


Only 900cpu.....just kidding


Ask and it shall be tradeable 1:1 for any DE resource. Ionite Intrusive would be nice!

Spawns pretty regularly on Chilastra. We've had 3 in a row now, but it's been crappy- so there's a measure of justice.

I think Ahazi's Lidium has always been....sub-par. I got like 25k of it during a spawn from about 4 months ago. It's lasted me all this time (and I'm not even close to running out).


I just crate a bunch of L6's with it and stick it in my Safety Deposit.

I overmined it for like 200k worth and ive been using it as regular extrusive ore for other things. Go to swgcraft.com and search for it on your server. write down the names, and then go shopping on your bazaar. you'll be amazed at the stuff that will pop up thats ancient. Ive bought stuff that spawned 5 months ago off the bazaar, and it large quantity at a low cpu at that. check once a week. hit up resource vendors if you know of any. you'll find some.

I guessDEs on Tempest arespoiled, all of these so called "rare" resources (Lidium,Tolium,Vertex) are quite common on Tempest. I guess Lidium was rare for a little while but we have have multiple spawns in the last month.
