Best Ways to Craft Units Quickly - Economy - Tutorial | no man's sky (2023)

This page details the different ways to earn lots of units quickly in No Man's Sky. We cover exploration methods like hunting aliens, scanning flora and fauna, discovering ancient bones and collecting storm crystals, profitable methods of crafting and farming that combine oxygen and chlorine, and methods for quest lines or side quests.

How to quickly create units in No Man's Sky¶

exploration¶

hunt wandering aliens¶

This might be the easiest way to earn units early in the game, but given the lack of necessary equipment, it's a surprisingly lucrative way to earn units. All you need is the basics.make miningYou can access it at the beginning of the game. This deals enough damage that you can kill most creatures fairly quickly, allowing you to loot and sell their organic remains. The most valuable of them are namedpiece of meat, each valued at about 1,000 pieces. You can find as many as you want, as each inventory slot accumulates 50 of these items and a stack sells for around 50,000. Of course, there are faster ways to earn units, but this is by far the easiest way and requires the least amount of equipment.

Destroy whisper eggs to sell larvae cores¶

This method is similar to the previous method in that you are essentially stealing from the alien creature. However, the creatures you steal can only be found in certain locations.Abandoned building. These can be found on almost every planet, especially the ones you start with, so you shouldn't have much trouble finding one. When you first arrive at an abandoned building, you will find that it is surrounded by nests, but you will not see any creatures. the nest containsflower eggcan be destroyed withmake miningor any type of ammunition that revealslarval nucleuswithin. These Larval Cores sell for around 69,000, making them one of the most valuable items captured by alien creatures.

The main difference between this method and normal hunting for roaming herbivores is that as soon as you destroy the Whisperer, many hostile creatures called bioterrorists (also known as demons or cave monsters) will emerge from the ground and start chasing you. They can deal a lot of damage in a short amount of time, especially if you're overwhelmed by a large number of them. As such, you'll need to either keep moving or find a safe spot on top of a building while taking them out. Killing them one at a time makes navigating fairly easy, but all of this can take quite a while and if you have access to other methods, they're probably more welcome.

Find natural burial sites and sell ancient bones.¶

This method is more cost-effective than hunting aliens or their eggs, but you'll need two basic pieces of equipment before you begin:analytical viewYterrain handler. You use the first one to identify yourself.NaturfriedhofOn a planet, he dug deep enough to find somethingold bonesrelated to them. The types of bones you can find vary by location. The bones you'll find fall into three main categories: Common, Uncommon, and Rare. The value of each value is listed in the following table.

old bone type	appraised value
Together	50,000 – 110,000 per bone
hardly ever	200,000 – 650,000 per bone
hardly ever	700,000 – 1,700,000 per bone

Sometimes more than one type of ancient bone can be found at the same site, and most sites have rare bones, making any dig potentially extremely profitable. The only limiting factor of this method is that you must first find a planet with ancient bones. The easiest way to determine this is to scan the planet out of orbit. If you don't see Ancient Bones as one of the top resources listed, please continue. When they appear in the list (as shown in the screenshot below), you're ready to go. If your boot system does not have planets with ancient skeletons, you will need to install ithiperdriveAnd head to another system to try your luck. Planets with ancient skeletons aren't particularly rare, so don't look too far.

Also note that the unit values ​​above for each bone type are base values ​​and may vary slightly depending on the local economics of your system. However, in most cases, you should find that the bones sell for a little more than the prices listed above.

Find and sell storm crystals¶

For this approach to work, one must first find a planet with an extreme weather atmosphere that can produce violent storms. These storms can come in various forms, e.g. B. hot, cold, toxic, and radioactive. However, when exploring and scanning planets, the main things to keep in mind are:deadly atmospherenext to the labelmore wet. Surely these planets will create violent storms, which in turn will generate storm crystals. You will have to wait for a violent storm to arrive before venturing inside and use the analysis scope to locateSturmkristall. They also shine brightly in the landscape, making them hard to miss. Each Storm Crystal sells for approximately 129,000 copies. So if you get enough of it, it's worth the trip.

If you wish to collect storm crystals, you will benefit from improving the hazard protection of your cloak. The type of upgrade depends in part on the type of planet you are dealing with in extreme weather. When the planet is associated with extreme heat, protection from heat is needed. If it is related to extreme cold, you will need protection from the cold, etc. Most of the cosmetic improvements can be found in:not normalSome of them offer enhancements to basic all-weather threat protection once you get access to it.

Scan flora and fauna with Analysis Visor¶

You can use this method continuously throughout the game. It is much less profitable than the previous methods, but it can provide a steady stream of income as you explore new planets. The only requirement isanalytical view, which allows you to scan and analyze all the different types of flora and fauna on a given planet. In general, flora spawns fewer units than fauna, but it's a good idea to scan both when exploring a new planet, as it won't take long. Once you have scanned all the flora and fauna on a planet, you will also receive an additional amount of units. If it's a new planet that no one has found before, you can bring up some extra units. Far from being a get-rich-quick scheme, this is a steady stream of income that feeds into other aspects of the game and provides an additional reason to get used to scanning everything you come across.

Crafting and Farming in No Man's Sky¶

Mixture of oxygen and chlorine in a large refinery.¶

This approach is arguably the best in terms of time spent versus units received. However, you may need to spend some time using the above methods to generate enough wealth and resources before this method will work. This is because you need to invest some units to buy it.a lotvonoxygenFirst. We talk about everything you can find. Multistack 9999. The best place to find bulk oxygen for sale is a space station, where you can talk to spaceship pilots and offer to trade them. Almost every pilot he comes in contact with has between 100 and 700 units of oxygen for sale. You need a few thousand units to buy as many batteries as possible.

Once you've acquired thousands of oxygen stacks, it's time to find a second resource:chlorine. This phenomenon is most common in salt deposits, which are found on almost all planets. However, if you can't find salt on your starting planet, you can search for salt by traveling to another system and scanning the planets. Alternatively, any planet with a lot of water on its surface could be assumed to have an adequate supply of salt. You may have to swim below the surface to find salt deposits to minemake miningExtract salt and chlorine. You don't need a lot of chlorine to keep this farm going, but if possible, try to get a stack of around 100 chlorine.

Now you have a lot ofoxygenand a small amountchlorine, all you have to do is mix the two in a refiner, which will generate more chlorine. You can use any refiner for this, even a portable refiner, but withbig refinery. you can buy laterrescue dataexistnot normalOnce you have access to it, the first thing you need to do is get the smallest refiner in the item tree. If you really want to get as much chlorine out of your operation as possible, you should consider purchasing several large refiners so that you can refine multiple batches of oxygen and chlorine at the same time.

You can accumulate as much Chlorine in your inventory as you want, but large Refineries will stop production at around 4000. It takes 3-4 minutes to produce this amount, so you'll need to return to the Refinery quite often. However, since you will never run out of chlorine with this method, you can use those 3-4 minutes to return to the space station (or a nearby trading post) and buy more oxygen from the visiting pilots to continue the refining process. Keep going as long as you want.

Once you are ready to sell your chlorine stacks you should use the cheats suggested above and avoid selling at the Galactic Trading Dock as this will reduce the price over time. Instead, talk to a guest pilot at a space station or trading post to sell it for a single price. You can earn tons of units by selling chlorine as shown in the screenshot above where a stack of 11,130 chlorine was sold for 6,717,944 units.

Complete local and nexus tasks in NMS¶

This is probably the most obvious way to earn units in traditional RPGs, but it's not as lucrative as the previous methods. Completing the quests and the main questline to get the same number of units will take more time than spending some time using the previous exploration or farming methods. However, it's worth noting that completing these quests will reward you with other items along the way, such as:boat of life, received fromA star has been bornunusual task.

You can also find side quests frommissionary agencyexistSpacial station, which sometimes rewards you with valuable items such asSurprise in the esophagus, with an approximate value of 57,000 units. As you complete more quests, you will be able to venture into new parts of the universe that you would not otherwise have visited. Therefore, it is worth taking some time to familiarize yourself with the main and side quests so that you can get the most out of them while playing the game. Earn a reasonable number of units.
