Phrazz why are you viewing expedition as an autoblock? I can't see how an ore spawn really interferes with anything but maybe i'm missing that it blocks natural mobs or something

Expedition is not ore. Expedition is somewhat useful early on to craft some gear with help of rog - at least used to be. But later it is weak mechanic with pretty much no meaningful rewards and takes time to complete. Some like it, most avoid it. Also it blocks place on map which means less natural mobs.

Ore mechanic is kalguur. In expedition you are placing explosives.

Lmao damnit I always do this, I can never separate expedition and settlers in my head and just put them in the same boat!

The blocking mobs is still true though and I think that is the big issue its easy enough to just run past and ignore but thanks for explaining the obvious to me when I was having a truly noob moment.

I was about to answer your initial Expedition-post when I saw your mix-up. I block Expedition purely from a visual/clutter standpoint in ALL my Atlas trees, the same goes for "New Breach". Breach isn't fun enough for me to invest atlas points into it even if you can have 100% of not spawning hives, but it's too intrusive for me not to block it.

Bring me some coffee and I'll bring you a smile.
