Paneross Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 How long does 1 Element Shard power a tek generator on the lowest settings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
popwear Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 1 element powers a tek geny for 12.5 hours on 2.0x radius. 1 element is 100 shards so i would believe it would power for 1/100th of 12.5 hours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay89 Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 That ain't right shards get used a lot less than full element its well cheaper to run on shards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monics Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Shards should be used for the Tek turrets, 1 shot from a tek turret is 1 shard, make them into shards so you can keep track of the bullets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NathanAndDaddy Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 I switched to shards on scorched because I would lose element every time the power went out. Can the tek replicator also run on shards? I have not checked this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpCowboy Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 I made a test with stopwatch on hand, on an official server I find out that one shard last 655 sec x 100 shards per elements = 65,500 secs or 18hrs with 12 mins. In my experience one element have the same duration than 100 shards on official: 18hrs and some minutes more, as @NathanAndDaddy mentioned, shards are more convinients to use on SE due the electric storms, or when u have to power for short period of time a teleport pad and dont want to waste a full element on it.

X111 Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 on the subject of element, is it confirmed that element can be harvested in Aberration? I thought I saw it in a Q&A on one of the digests but cant find it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe not, we will see next week I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, you will only be able to bring your character to aberration. No creatures, no items, nothing else than your cold naked survivor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that mean the higher the radius will be multiplied to how much element is used? Like let’s say it’s on the 3x radius. Does that mean 1 element would last 6 hours instead of 18 since the radius is multiiplied by 3? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have 2 gens on 1.0x and it's 18 hours per element. I have a gen on 3.4x and it's way longer than 6 hours. Almost 12 hours. Never timed it, but it's for sure less than 2 element a day.

SpCowboy Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Not sure if its directly proportional, but Wiki say it is, but my experience is far from what they said about, I found that on officials servers the elements on Tek Genny last double of the time: Wiki: "... The Tek Generator uses 0.1 Element / 10 Element Shard per unit of radius per hour" Me: "The Tek Generator uses 0.055 Element / 5.5 Element Shard per unit of radius per hour" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LLOYD0102 Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 you can make element on abberation. it takes a little time only 3 element every 38 min (for every charging station you go to) or so but the mats are easy to get if you know what you are doing. it a great place for a solo tribe member to get element without have to do the boss fights. then you make tek on aberation and just transfer it out and your good.
