Where is Fuel?

Fuel is ONLY found on Moons in form of Liquid Erchius and Crystalised Erchius.

Dangers on the Moon?

The Moon is quite safe IF you have a EPP crafted at the Anvil.

Just Kidding...

The Moon safe? As if. As soon as you collect fuel the unkillable Erchius Ghosts show up. The more fuel you collect the faster the Ghosts are and the more Ghosts appear. They are incredibly Lethal but only start attacking when you collect fuel. Also the phase through everything.

Tips?

When first arriving on the Moon go for the fuel deposits on the surface and as soon as you see a Ghost RUN. If you think you got enough fuel Teleport away from that Godforsaken rock. After dropping off the fuel in your ship you can repeat this cycle over and over again. The Liquid Fuel is closer too the middle of the Moon not near the surface. Don't be a idiot and try to attack a Ghost or go for the Gold all the time. Being cornored by a bunch of incrdibly lethal Ghosts will make sure you won't do it again. Have fun mining.

I think the Erachus Ghost comes from the Core of the Moon. Maybe it's the Vengful Spirit of the Erachus Horror? You can only get the Tunsten to craft the EPP after you fix the ship. And the file on the Erachus Horror mentions something about a parasitic abberation and worms are commonly known parasites... Oh sorry just ranting, but yeah, The Ghost thing comes from the core of the Moon. The Liquid Erachus Core of the Moon

This may be a bit off topic, but where the fuck do these giant purple death condoms come from?

I just wanna mine my fuel in peace.

Ever try digging around all of the Erchius and then makeing multiple escape routes before mining? I do it from time to time.

I love,'' have fun mining'' after all that.

I used frost weapons to kill the ghosts, does that work with you guys? Or does it have to do with my mods (I don't have killable ghosts mod)

I would like to point out that crystal erchius provides more fuel points than liquid erchius. found that out when I fueled my ship with both
