How To Get Stardust Source

Rift Anchors

The first way to acquire Stardust Source is throughactivating Rift Anchorsthroughout the world ofOnce Human. Rift Anchors pave the way for players to access the Monoliths in each region of the game and are highlighted on the map. Navigating over to a Rift Anchor point on the map will provide players with all the necessary information they need, including the rewards they will obtain for activating it. To activate a Rift Anchor point, players can simply interact with it. Doing so will provide them with Stardust Source.

Securement Silos

They can be found in various locations, each marked on the map. To clear a Securement Silo, players will need toeliminate the boss inside. The area is also filled with numerous enemies, meaning players will need tostock up on ammunitionand use the best weapons available to come out on top. Once players have eliminated the boss within the Securement Silo, they will be able toclaim Stardust Source and other rewards from the Treasure Chestat the end of the boss area.

Production Facilities

The next major way for players to get Stardust Source is throughProduction Facilities.

To activate a Production Facility,players will need an Access Card, which can usually be found randomly by looting supply crates in Strongholds. Once done so, players can head on over to the Production Facility and activate it. However, players will need todefend the area against waves of enemiesto get their rewards. On top of Stardust Source, players can also acquire Acid and Mixed Fuel from Production Facilities.

Startrace Ores can be found in higher-tier zones such as the Iron River and will require anElectric Rock Drillor aSteel Pickaxeto mine.
