Oh my god! This is so absurdly brilliant! When you find the whispering eggs, build a base computer. Put up walls around an entire nest of eggs. Go to a different nest, outside the walls, grab a core and spawn the terrors. THEN jetpack INSIDE the walls and collect all the cores from that nest of eggs. While the initial spawn of terrors, more won't spawn while you clean up wholesale inside the walled off and protected eggs!

I just cleaned house on 6 cores in less than 30 seconds!

This method works like a dream. I put up walls around two different nests and triggered the terrors by grabbing one unprotected egg. Jetpacked inside the first set of walls, cleared an entire nest in less than 30 seconds, Jetpacked over to the second set of walls, cleared another nest in less than 30 seconds. 13 larval cores collected in less than a minute and never once in danger.

It does take some time setting up, since you have to build a giant box around the nests, and you may need to go collect a bunch of carbon if you don't already have at least 500 carbon on you, but once you have everything set and you're ready to collect, you can wipe out nests and rack up larval cores in seconds. Less than 2 minutes of actual time spent blasting eggs and collecting larval cores, and I already have 20 cores sitting in my inventory.

Edit - Lmao, I just wiped out three nests, another 17 larval cores, in less than two minutes, one a singe spawn of those things. I put one huge box around two nests and a smaller one around a third. Spawned those assholes, Jetpacked into the giant box, wiped out two nests in seconds, Jetpacked into the second box and wiped out the third before the initial spawn wave started disappearing. I've got 37 cores sitting in my inventory with another 13 eggs to blast.

Edit 2 - My total haul at the end of an easy day's work blasting whispering eggs - 47 larval cores worth a grand spanking total of $4,465,000 units.
