Are you interested in playing Starfield but worried about the leveling-up process? This player has an excellent suggestion for you.
A complete manual on how to maximize your XP has been released by YouTuber Maka91Productions. Although you won’t be able to set it up right away because you’ll need some skill points, the Outpost Engineering skill, and to be fairly familiar with the game’s mechanics, you should make sure to research power generation and resource extractors at a Research Laboratory once you’ve played for a while.
It’s also important to think about how you’ll outfit your ship. As The Loadout points out, you should make sure your ship has 2000-3000 cargo space, and then head to Jemison Mercantile and the ship’s store for Adaptive Frames (18), Aluminum (124), 2Beryllium (24), Copper (30), Fiber (2), Iron (99), and Tungsten (24).
Your next step is to travel to Sumati’s moon Andraphon, which is rich in iron and alumium. Establish an Outpost in the mountains where you can extract both iron and alumium – a precise location is given in the video above – and place six alumium extractors and six iron extractors. 10 solar arrays should then be placed to power everything.
Maka91 guides, “Place three storage bins by the aluminum, and three storage bins by the iron.” “Link the storage bin that contains all of the extractors to the other storage bins in the group. Continue by using both extractors. A bed and an industrial workbench should be placed last. As you sleep, 140 hours will pass in a 24-hour period because, on this moon, one hour of local time is equivalent to six hours of universal time. Your resources will be in storage bins when you awaken.
Maka91 adds that it’s worthwhile to get up after your first sleep and use your new resources to create more storage bins (be sure to link them together until you have about eight to ten). “Start grinding XP and levels” at that point.
“Sleep for a full day. Get up. To create Adaptive Frames, visit the Industrial Workbench. To craft them in chunks of 99, hold right on the d-pad and press RB to fill the bar as quickly as you can. You will receive a base of 99 XP for every 99 Adaptive Frames you craft, and you should be able to gain more than 1,500 XP each time you sleep. You can keep doing this as long as you like, Maka advises.
Once completed, dispose of the adaptive frames. There is a “small chance” that your base will be attacked during this process; if this occurs, “clear the enemies and repair anything that may be broken.”
Remember that sleeping gives you an additional 10% XP buff, or 15% if you can do so with a partner who has reached the maximum level of your relationship.
If you can upgrade this farm on Venus, Maka adds, you can increase this even more. Watch their video for more information.
