How to farm Starchrom in Once Human

Modified Jul 17, 2024 16:35 IST

One of the most essential currencies in Once Human is Starchrom, used in the Wish Machine to obtain Legendary blueprints for weapons and armor. You start earning this currency early in your playthrough via Battle Pass rewards and completing Season Goals and Journey Tasks. However, you won't be able to spend it until you unlock the Wish Machine by following the main story questline in the Iron River region.

This guide covers everything you need to know about Starchrom in Once Human, including how to farm it.

There are several ways to acquire Starchrom in Once Human besides completing Season Goals, Journey Tasks, and leveling up in the Battle Pass. While these methods provide a steady source of Starchrom as you progress through the story, they are limited in quantity. Moreover, the amount you earn is relatively small compared to what is required to obtain high-quality weapon and armor blueprints.

Here are all the ways to farm Starchrom in Once Human:

Territory Purification:

The Stardust Resonant Filter is a facility that lets you purify various levels of Eclipse Cortex — obtained from defeating Elites and bosses in the world — to summon hordes of Deviants. These monsters will attack your base, essentially turning it into a tower defense minigame. After defeating all the waves of enemies, you will earn Starchrom based on the quantity and level of Cortex purified.
Higher levels and quantities of Eclipse Cortex will increase both the level of enemies and the number of Elites, but you will also earn more Starchrom.
The Stardust Resonant Filter has a weekly Purification Limit of 40.

Prime Wars:

Prime Wars is a world event unlocked in Phase 2 of the ongoing Season. While some servers have already reached this phase, others are nearing the end of Phase 1 and will soon be able to participate in this event.
This event is essentially a larger-scale version of the territory defense minigame. However, instead of facing regular enemies and Elites, you will battle Monolith bosses alongside more than 40 other players to defend the Starroid Restrainer, which will spawn on the map.
Successfully completing this event will reward you with large quantities of Starchrom.

Stellar Planula Shop:

You can buy Starchrom Crates from Severin VII-S2041 for 100 Stellar Planula each. This vendor is available in every quest hub Settlement across the different regions of the map.
You can earn the Stellar Planula currency by completing Morphic Hunts and Side Tasks.
