No Man's Sky: A Comprehensive Guide to Obtaining Solanium
Solanium, a crucial resource in No Man's Sky, is exclusively found on planets with specific climates. This guide details how to acquire Solanium through gathering, farming, and crafting.
Locating Solanium:
Unlike Frost Crystals, Solanium thrives on hot and arid planets. Before landing, use your starship scanner to identify planets with climates such as Arid, Incandescent, Boiling, or Scorched. The scanner will indicate Solanium as a harvestable resource.
Upon landing, employ your Analysis Visor to locate Solar Vines – tall, rock-like structures with luminous vines. These are abundant in specific areas. Remember, you'll need a Haz-Mat Gauntlet to harvest them. While on these planets, collect Phosphorus deposits; they're essential for crafting Solanium if you lack access to hot planets.
Farming Solanium:
Once you've progressed in the Farmer's Agricultural Research mission, you can cultivate Solar Vines at your base. Utilize Hydroponic Trays or Bio-Domes, planting Solar Vines using 50 Solanium and 50 Phosphorus. If your base is situated on a hot planet, direct ground planting is possible.
Allow approximately 16 real-time hours for the Solar Vines to mature before harvesting.
Crafting Solanium:
Several Refiner recipes yield Solanium, most requiring Phosphorus from hot planets. Alternatively, purchase Phosphorus from traders or Galactic Trade Terminals. Here are the Solanium crafting recipes:
- Solanium + Phosphorus (to create more Solanium)
- Phosphorus + Oxygen
- Phosphorus + Sulphurine
- Di-hydrogen + Sulphurine
Note that all recipes, including those needing Sulphurine, necessitate a visit to a hot planet. To consistently obtain Sulphurine, gather ample Phosphorus and establish a farm at your base.
