AprilPvd in VR:
No Man’s Sky
Wednesday
I have been neglecting E so I took her out and I have been trying to get her a third sentinel ship for her squadron. She had two sentinel ships and a Wraith living ship.
But then I realized she had some extra living ships and so now she has two sentinels and two living ships. I also worked on her freighter because I had it set up so when she teleported in, she ended up in a corner and that was annoying to me.
Watched a YouTube video that said the new expedition would be starting on February 11, 2026
No Man's Sky New Expedition Start Date Right Now Is The 11th February - This Might Change - NMS News
That’s so exciting. It’s a guy named Captain Steve and he didn’t have an idea on what the expedition will be about, but I’m excited. So that means I need to look at new ships to bring with me.
Thursday
Hunting S Class Frigate using AprilPvd. But first I wanted to get some new S class frigate. And I got another video from Hero2U
The Best 5 Living Frigate S Class in No Man's Sky Adrift
I went to each ship in the video had AprilPvd put in the glyphs and then one by one my three alt joined her and it was a lot of fun. When I did it with Aprillian on the second one, I realized her fleet was full. But I was able to go back into single player mode and extra frigates because unfortunately, she had a whole bunch of C class. Well when I first learned about living frigates, I just took whichever one came my way, but now I’m obsessed with getting the S class ones. it really helped that I realize I could refuel while pulsing. Always learning something new.
Friday
Start out the day living frigate hunting

The more I hear about the upcoming possible expedition the more I want to get a new multitool to take with me as well as a new ship. I came upon this video from HeRo2u and decided to look for these staff for a little bit.
How to Get The Best 3 Staff Multitool S Class in No Man's Sky 2024
It’s funny because I will do some of the work on the flatscreen, especially when I’m following a YouTube channel because the TV is right in front of where am I laptop is. Then I can save my game and transfer over to my VR to be able to get multitool.
I got the multitool I have figuring out how to make it from the blueprint you get when you’ve complete the auto phase quest. It’s amazing how many blueprints you end up with. It’s got a nice layout for the supercharged slot. Because I had gone crazy getting those sleek black sentinel. I think that’s what they’re called multi tools. My multitool slots were full, but the one I got from the expedition, I can purchase again with nsnites so I’d decide to strip it down take out all the technology. I’m so glad I learned about that. And then I made the autophage staff and it is beautiful three supercharged slots vertically and then one sticking out the middle is perfect and I decided to use it for scanning. That will be the one I take with me on the expedition.
I went back to scouting for a cool sentinel ship.

I love that even after two years these ships are still there and it’s fun to look at the way this guy sets them up. He gives you the glitz and the location right across the top and for most of them he gives you the supercharged slot configuration. I can’t decide which one I like best, but I’m gonna go looking at a couple of his videos and trying to figure out which one. what’s really funny is the guy is British and he says three like Jeppy does with an F.
Saturday
Did my VR work out today. Then I went searching for some living frigates originally for April Pvd, because she still has a couple of living frigates that aren’t as class. But when I went to dismiss them, they were so pretty look:
So I decided to keep them and just look for a living frigates on my other three characters. I posted a comment on HeRo2U YouTube that I was following for these particular living forgets and he thanked me, which was nice. I appreciate all the work the community does to make the game more interesting. Although I do know, I have a bunch of other things I need to do like make sure all my settlements are taken care of before the next expedition. I still have a few frigates that I need to debrief on several characters as well. There’s also some building I want to do on the freighters. Well, I’ve made a few land bases for April Pvd, I’m really more into the freighters for the other characters. It just makes more sense. They are talking about upcoming changes that might come and I think it would be interesting if we could build a base in space but I guess that’s basically what a freighter is. i’ve been trying with Sebastian over the last couple of days to get a living frigates and I know he has been successful but the last three or four times nothing. So today I tried destroying the dream aerial and then rebuilding it. I did find out with Aprillian that you can’t still find them even when your fleet is full, and you can go back and find them after you pare down your fleet. it’s really weird that it’s taking Sebastian so long. Sometimes I worry that maybe I took my eyes off the screen for a second but… OK after 15 minutes he finally found the living frigate, but then I hit the wrong key and I went hurling off past it. Let’s see if I can find it again. It can be very frustrating because it takes some time. I do admit it’s one of the only times I like to be on the flat screen because I can do other things while I’m watching the screen like watch TV or something, but I find it very satisfying when I find the one that I saw on the YouTube channel. It’ll be interesting to see if I get this one again. I feel a little silly now that I know that I can add fuel because of all the times I stopped when the fuel ran out and then I had to use another anomaly locator, and this was back when I didn’t know the trick of duplicating them so I had to actually work hard for those anomaly locators.. finally Sebastian got a living frigate.
Sunday
Watched a whole bunch of YouTube videos about what it could mean.
I made several suggestions on some social media post:
Apartments on space station
Being able to build a space station or a base in space
Somebody else suggested trains, which would be cool. I spent most of the day chasing living frigates , but it was worth it.
Two times I got calls from my fleet to join them and it was very exciting. I got to help one of my fleets fight some pirates and then I did some translating for another group
Monday
I am loving all the clues and all the hints about No Man’s Sky’s coming update. It’s almost like a treasure hunt. Somebody said that the game would go on sale right before the update/possible new expedition and they were right. I purchased another copy so that if I want to, I can run three versions at the same time which is just silly. But I don’t mind giving hello games my money.
One of the Youtubers is suggestions save somewhere where it’s simple and not a lot of stuff around in case there’s trouble loading. That’s very interesting.
My goal today is to get a cute ship for each of my characters just in case we can take them into the expedition. I also want to get them all nice multi tools to take as well. I’m also looking into a source of night for each of them.
I went to different places to look at the ship I had gotten that I thought was purple and it just did not look like purple to me, so I decided to go for this ship. And I just realized I don’t have any coordinates for it.
After searching for more purple sentinels ships, I just didn’t like any of them. One had a long pointy thing over top of my head in the cockpit and then the other one had two on the sides, so I decided to make my own purple ship.
It has three connected supercharged slots on the left and then one in the middle. I really like it, and I like the view from the cockpit. This one was for April Pvd. Now I have to find ships for the other three.
I purchased another copy of No Man’s Sky and VRocker for Epril Pvd
Tuesday
Spent the morning getting ships ready for the expedition. I also got rid of some ships because I had too many copies. I stocked up on tainted metal and suspicious packages. One or the other will come in handy going into the expedition to purchase the ship and multitool I bring with me once I get to the anomaly. But we don’t even know what kind of expedition it’s going to be.
Figured out how to use the appearance modifier.

Got a new gaming bridge router that has two
Zenith Cosmetic Craze
Had a really nice turn out and perfect timing going between the Neowear and Sunshine Events.
Grand Nagus:
No Man’s Sky:
I watched the video about the 25 S-Class Sentinel ships, and got myself the last one shown.
In the process of getting the ship, I built a base near the portal I used, so I always have easy access to a portal when I need one.
