Remnant research points

I have a bloody ton of Remnant points, well over 1000. I haven't done Voeld yet, went with the other planet (which has quite a lot).

My problem is Milky Way points, I never have enough, just barely enough to make my Hyperguardian 1 armor. I'm nearly level 20 and want to make rank 2 & 3 but I don't have remotely enough research. I'm playing Combat/Tech so thinking of switching it up with a mixture of Kett Fusion & Angaran Guerilla armors (I play Combat/Tech).

Heleus research is not problem, tons of it about. I have over 3k cos i dont like any of the weapons there.

Remnant i have over 1.5k, rarer than Heleus as its usually only found in vaults and other Remnant areas and Remnant mobs.

Milky way research is the hardest to get imo tho i havent done Kadara yet so maybe theres more there.

Just unlock scientists perk and you'll get 100 points every hour.

Make sure to visit Remnant spawns on the map and all corners in vaults, as mentioned above you'll get a lot from these lamp things.

That perk isn't foolproof though. Mine is bugged and only ever gives MWG points in 40 hours.

I only unlocked the Lab Technicians perk rather late in the game and mostly spend extended amount of time on planets, I am still swimming in Milky Way points. No problem at all. Even though I spend about 1/3 of my total research points spent on Milky Way stuff (spent the other 2/3 on Heleus stuff, I am point starved there).

handduken: The remnant melee weapon is pretty lackluster anyways, try the Kett fire sword. It does not prime enemies, but the damage is so much better (gamebreaking OP if you are playing Vanguard profile because of its interaction with the passive ability). And combo damage is not that great anyways, unless HEAVILY specced for it.

Are we playing the same game? I've finished Havarl (the alternative to Voeld) and I have 850 Remnant research points. I haven't used any yet since the stuff available there doesn't seem particularly powerful, but collecting them was easy - just scan Remnant tech and enemies. I don't think it's possible to farm them though, since there shouldn't be any infinitely repeatable appearances of scannable stuff.

@all:
Is the Remnant stuff any good? Most stats look inferior to me.

Wait, does it the burning dot proc Vanguard's melee shield restore or something?

I'm with others. I have plenty of Remnant and Heleus research points 1000+ in each. It's the Milky Way Galaxy points that are eluding me, I currently have less than 200 points in that.

This.  Visit the remnant sites that are not part of quests but just general exploring, scan the weird remnant torch thingies they give you 100 points each.

I really, really wanted to build a vanguard with the teleporty asari blade, but the scrub in me really wants easy mode godmode.

Also, I agree, I gave a spin to researching all the Remnant weapons with some save-load magic to try them out, I have to agree they are all rather meh. Well, to be fair, meh compared to powerhouse guns like Vanquisher (which has a broken good headshot multiplier that makes it hit as hard as the widow on weak points) or Crusader (headshots for days shotgun) on an Adept with zero points invested in gun related skills.

I can see Inferno working if you could bring it up, damage wise, to one shot mooks with head shots because if you avoid the over heat, the reload time is almost non-existent. The two continuous beam guns would probably also work well if you could get their ridiculous sway under control to keep them trained on something's head.
