Acquiring

Mining A Resource Node of Rare Compounds

Many resources and materials are found throughout Hellion. You can acquire these resources in a few different ways, each providing benefits and setbacks to them.

Resources

Resources can be gathered in multiple ways.

• They can be mined from resource nodes on certain asteroids.
• They can be found in Raw Resource Canisters.
• They can be taken from an existing cargo storage.
• They can be found in Refined Resource Canisters.

Materials

Materials can be gathered in only two ways.

• They can be found on the outside of derelicts, atop a red/orange sparking section.
• They can be taken from storage racks.

Raw Resources

Raw Resource Canisters

A resource is a gas or certain type of mineral that is useful in Hellion. All resources have certain functions, and most are crucial to survival.

Ice

Ice is refined into Hydrogen, which is used as welder fuel, and Oxygen, a resource that every player needs.

Ferrite

Ferrite is found on most asteroids and is refined into Nickel Iron, an important tier 1 crafting resource, required for most blueprints.

Nitrates

Nitrates are refined into Nitro, an RCS propellant, and Nitrogen, a necessary resource for Air creation.

Dry Ice

Dry Ice is refined into Oxygen, a resource that every player needs.

Regolith

Regolith is refined into Helium-3, a fuel used in fusion reactors.

Mafic Rock

Mafic rock is refined into Silicates, an important tier 2 crafting resource.

Titanite

Titanite is refined into Titanium, an important tier 3 crafting resource.

Rare Compounds

Rare Compounds are refined into Rare Elements, an important tier 4 crafting resource.

Raw Materials

A material is broken piece of a certain fabricated part, that can be recycled and used to craft other things in Hellion.

Shattered Plating

Shattered plating is found in almost all tier zones, and is required to create Carbon Fibers, a basic crafting material.

Broken Armature

Broken armatures are found in tier 2 and higher zones, and are required to create Alloys, a tier 2 crafting material.

Ruptured Insulation

Ruptured insulation is found in tier 2 and higher zones, and yield Alloys and Carbon Fibers, tier 1 and 2 crafting materials.

Fried Electronics

Fried electronics are found in tier 3 and higher zones, and are required to create Circuits, a tier 3 crafting material.

Damaged Transmitter

Damaged Transmitters are found in tier 3 and tier 4 zones, and yield Circuits, and Superconductors.

Burned PDU

Burned PDUs are found in tier 4 zones, and are required to create Superconductors, a tier 4 crafting material.
