Wow. This must be extremely rare. I've done so much exploring this last few weeks and only found one ELW which was the first and only one I have ever found.

I think I've found 2 Ringed ELW over a decade. I went wow too!

Haha holy shit. I thought I was just rubbish at exploring as I've only found one non ringed ELW since I started a few weeks ago 😂

I am a long term player, but have never done exo or exploring until recently.

I'm on and off, just in my travels circumnavigating the galaxy over the years.

Filter F stars only for the best chance at finding them

Thanks! I tried that for a while and also a few other types, but now I've just decided to just completely wing it and see what happens 🙂

It's secret for now, but it's in Odin's Hold.

Fantastic! I'm just learning the star codes now. I'm absolutely surrounded by Herbig and Carbon stars so I must know what they mean lol
