Most rare resources in Starfield can be fetched by looting supply rooms and pirate outposts. Every game that has a loot system categorizes items into various rarities. Common items are found in abundance, while rare ones are quite difficult to come by. Anyway, during your resource-finding endeavor, you will come across a crafting material called Polytextile. So what exactly is a Polytextile? How do you get it in Starfield? Let’s find out.
Polytextile is one of the most important materials if you are thinking of upgrading your spacesuit. Since your spacesuit is your primary armor in the game, you have no choice but to upgrade it for better sustainability in the harshest environments. While upgrade cost isn’t the bigger concern, you may go round and round while looking for this component called polytextile. So, let’s discuss some ways of acquiring this important resource in Starfield.
Starfield Polytextile: How to get & find
A few in-game elements require significant grinding to level up. Character rank, for example, or the ability to sprint longer requires much grinding. But your spacesuit has no system like that. The only way to upgrade is by finding the required components or materials. One of them is polytextile, and fortunately, it’s not quite hard to get. However, you must know where to look for it.
Craft it
Well, getting polytextile is as easy as crafting a certain item in the game. The most common and easiest way to get it is by crafting. Since you will eventually need this resource in huge numbers, it’s better to craft them. To craft it, just follow these steps:
- Complete the first main quest if you haven’t already. This quest is the “One Small Step,” and then you can have access to The Lodge’s basement.
- Now, enter the basement and access the Industrial Workbench. Remember that you can also build a workbench in your outpost if you have the level advantage.
- Well, interact with the Industrial Workbench and locate polytextile from the list of items.
- Now, if you have the required materials, you can craft it.
Remember that you will need 2x Fiber and 1x Cosmetic to craft this item. Fibers are easier to get; just harvest them from the various plants you come across on planets, and you will get yourself some fiber. And cosmetics can be looted from various chests and supply crates/rooms.
Buy it
The alternative way to get polytextile is to simply buy it from various vendors. Head over to Cydonia on Mars. Now, look for a general store that will be run by an NPC called Denis Averin. You can interact with this NPC to buy the resource. However, that doesn’t mean you can buy Polytextile right away. This game has some random elements to it, so if you are lucky, you can buy it right away. Or you may have to reset the inventory of the shop by waiting 24 in-game hours. There are other vendors as well that sell polytextile. These are:
- Zoe Kaminsky- New Atlantis
- Dietrich Sieghart – Neon
Anyway, this was our complete guide on how to find polytextile in Starfield. Crafting the resource is by far the easiest, considering you have the required materials for it. And, if you are loaded with credits, buying it is the fastest method. That said, we hope this guide provided you with all the information you needed. So, make sure to follow Android Gram for more.
