Lore
“The trick was never making something hard. Anyone can make a plate hard enough to shatter. The Ironclad Syndicate spent a decade learning how to make armor that bends just enough to survive — and then sold the patent to everyone, because a galaxy full of survivors buys more armor than a galaxy full of corpses.”
Where to Farm
- 1Prioritise upgrading your extraction building over storage — production compounds at each level.
- 2Run your extractors at full capacity by ensuring Energy surplus stays above 15%.
- 3Trade surpluses on the open market rather than letting storage overflow cap your gains.
