    Oratan Miner


    Description:
    The Oratan are believed to be the race warned of in The Signal, intercepted by the Celeste Space Probe.

    It follows that this species inflicted genocide on the Ancient Arkadian people. Accordingly, the Oratan should not be underestimated.

    As a Species, they revel in battle and killing, specifically targeting human colonists on Arkadia.

    They have also shown a tendency to loot and steal, appearing to to crave technology in particular.
    Advanced weapons appear to be within their ability to use, but beyond their capability to develop for themselves.

    This Oratan is much larger than those originally encountered by the IFN,
    Whilst it's physical size is intimidating, it is also noticeable less aggressive than expected, and appears subservient in behaviour to other Oratan.

    The Imperial Fleet Navy (IFN) knows very little information on the origins of the Oratan,
    However, the destruction of the Ancient Arkadians by their hands seems certain, and the threat they pose to humanity is very real and immediate.

    We were wrong, Oratan is the trademark of their weapons manufacturer, not the name of their race :D

    Hmm, why does the one exclude the other?
    Perhaps they were deployed with other species in the distant past and marked their tools. The mark remains, even though the others are not around.

    Can anybody advise me where the different maturities of Oratan Miners are spawned and also what triggers them.

    Miners seem to be where the mines are. If you walk into the mine to where the ore trolley is, there is an explosion.
    When I did that at mine near Valiant base, it triggered several L26 Guardians (a bit 2 strong for me)
    When I visited mine near Steadfast I saw several L16 & 17s when I had killed them I went into mine & set of explosion.
    However, no new miners appeared.

    Is there some other action that triggers them, or do they just appear at different times.

    Any info/advice would be appreciated.

    Below is a survey done quite a while ago, don't think they have changed. Some triggers are known to be bugged, I guess they fell off the backburner since there is enough redundancy anyway.

    Thanks San, will check out all locations in that link.
    But effectively I just found where plenty of Miners hang out - the Underground is the place to be for that
