Let’s be honest. We all love survival games, and we love them even more when they give us a chance to build cool bases. Once Human delivers both features in a very good way, it allows its players to fight for their lives in a multiplayer open-world survival game set in a post-apocalyptic future, and it gives them a variety of decoration options to make things even more fun. Yet, it does not give these options that easily. Every player needs to locate and get the decoration formulas to decorate their bases. In this guide, we are going to take a look at how to get decoration formulas in Once Human so your base can look better than ever!
Feel free to take a look at the table of contents below to see the sections of this guide.
How To Get Decoration Formulas
There are some single-use items you can find in the game, and surely, you can use those items in your base as well. However, these items probably won’t carry over to the next season, as those items are going to go away. Thus, it is important to find decoration formulas so that you can craft special, more fun, and unique items.
Yet, finding decoration formulas is a little bit difficult in Once Human. The reason for that is that they are actually dependent on spawn rates, we do not know if this rate will be increased in the future. But as of right now, it is not that easy to locate these formulas.
Still, single-use decoration items are very useful as well. So make sure to take a look at our How To Find Furniture Guide (All Methods) to learn more about them too.
How to Locate Formulas
Before we get started, there are a few things to take into account. The first step is to understand what you are looking for. When looking for these formulas, consider what you need and why you prefer it over anything else. Look for high-density locations like cabinets, trash cans, tables, closets, and so on. The more of these items you have in one place, the better your chances of finding what you are looking for. Such as a formula.
Mapped Route
The route we are going to show you has a high concentration of lootable items. Such as garbage cans, closets, tables, and cabinets. However, you need to exercise caution because some sections lack lootable garbage cans and cabinets, making it difficult to locate lootable areas.
It is an RNG (random number generator), so you might not get it. If that happens, we advise you to keep running and keep taking a look around. Since it is randomly generated, that is the best advice we can give.
Additionally, loot respawns every four hours. Once the new loot has spawned, you can repeat the loot run. You may set a timer or something while playing, and when the four-hour timer expires, you can continue the loot run and hopefully have better luck this time.
Blackfell Area
Once you arrive at the Blackfell, you can take a look inside the apartment buildings. Start looting all the dumpsters and going through all the motel rooms for cabinets. Once you are sure that you looked through the entire motel, head to the second location.
The next location is the red government building (coordinates 4531, and -1429). This area is a high pollution zone with a lot of elite enemies, so you should definitely be on the lookout for that. On the way over, there are a few houses you can check for furniture items, and there are a bunch of enemies you can kill as well.
If you have a food item that gives a 50% acid bonus, it would be great to use it while acid farming during this loot run. Each one of these rooms has desks, weapon crates, and all sorts of different things.
To go to the next location, use the exit door to leave the government building and go straight ahead. Make sure to check out each dumpster on your way as well.
You are going to reach a greenhouse. This greenhouse has many cabinets and dumpsters to check for furniture items or formulas. The kitchen area has a lot of cabinets, so make sure you are looting them all. This kitchen is probably the best area you can find in terms of looting; there is just so much here.
After this area, head to the teleporter outside Clifton. Upon arrival, run up the hill; there might be many Rosetta forces there, surprisingly many for a settlement. Run through, kill all enemies, and loot every storage bin and trash can. There is a good chance of finding something, and even if you only get scrap, it is still useful for building.
Clifton Area
Next, we are heading to Breezy Shores Resort near Clifton. It is not far away and is optional if you have already got enough furniture items. There are not many lots there, but you still have a good chance of finding items around the area. Take a look at the houses there, and you might find nice items around.
This concludes our Once Human: How To Get Decoration Formulas Guide. By following this route, you can find a lot of good decoration items and formulas, or even other useful items as well. If you are not satisfied with what you have found, remember to repeat your run every four hours.
