Where to Find Resources
When hunting down various resources for crafting and research, know that almost every planet in the game will spawn some resource or material.Yes, even a barren world that appears dead and abandoned may include a bountiful harvest to siphon off.
Inorganic resources are dotting the landscape. To find them, open the scanner and look around the immediate area. More often than not, these resources will appear highlighted on the HUD. Some will appear in small clusters on rocks or along cave walls.But there are extensive deposits to discover, too.For these, players will need to use their scanner to track the source, then use the cutting laser to break away pieces of the deposit itself.
Unfortunately, some resources can only be found in hazardous zones. Players will contend with toxic gasses to track these down, taking environmental damage along the way, but the bounty is usually worthwhile.
