Cerion Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 So I've been tooling around Belsavis... trying to find the four Rakata power cubes to gain a green matrix shard. But after a few days with several hours of searching per day under my belt, I've yet to see a single one. Has anyone gotten their green matrix shard here lately?

Polebreaker Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 Yeah, it can be kind of a pain, but they are there. Check out the spawn map here: http://www.swtor-spy.com/datacrons/belsavis/643/ There's only one up at a time, so you pretty much just have to drive around and check all the spots listed (a couple of them are the wrong thing but anyways) and just keep doing it. Got mine done in an hour-ish just by driving in a pattern like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafaman Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 Yup. I got them. And the previous post and map is the key. It took me a total of 3 tries to get them all. The key spots are highlighted but I'm not sure if it isn't just random. Let me explain 3 tries. It can get frustrating, so just go in and only devote a little chunk of time per session. Follow the same patter per the map, you are sure to run into them. I found 2 the first time and 1 each following time. It probably took a couple of hours total. Another thing, only once did I spot the cube from a distance as they do tend to glow a little bit. But they are also sometimes masked by other junk and debri and the grass doesn't help. I literally ran over one I found in the starship werckage only because I happened to look down after beating the mobs in that area. It can be done, it just takes patience. BTW you can collect more than 4 too. I now make a quick pass through for guildies. And, it is well worth it. I have the all green Matrix Cube as a result and... wow, what a stats boost!

Stealios Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 Same experience here, spend about 3 or 4 hours in a pattern (had bad luck that 2 got snatched right in front of me) and basically helped about 20 people out of my guild to the matrix shard. If you're doing it at a time when the server population is low it's a lot easier than during early evening, as i found out. lol Main thing is you need to have some luck that other people aren't going for them at same time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cerion Posted April 8, 2012 Author Share Posted April 8, 2012 (edited) Thanks guys for the replies. I had been following a circuit as I've read that's the strategy to use, but I'll use the linked one above and give that a whirl. Edit:: yikes, the link is to the very map I've been using! Well I'm nothing if patient. I'll keep at it. Cheers! Edited April 8, 2012 by Cerion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cerion Posted April 8, 2012 Author Share Posted April 8, 2012 So now I've found two! haha. It's the grass. Thanks for the idea about the grass. Dumb of me not to think of it sooner, but I just turned off all the grass. Spotted two just like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuzzDONTEVENTRIP Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 Yea the grass is one major thing to note. Also, make sure you know of ALL the locations because it wont respawn until you find (or someone else) finds that shard so if youre not finding ANY, you probably dont have all the known locations -fuzz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
