Starfield, like all Bethesda games, can be quite huge and confusing at times. With all the different planets and cities within those planets, it’s easy to get lost in all of it. Collecting materials for crafting and building can also be a bit confusing since you’ll need to know where to find them. One of the things you’ll need is Polymer, and it can get pricey buying them from vendors.
In this guide, we’ll show you where is the best place to find Polymer in the game. Now, let’s see where we can find this resource so we can get to crafting and building!
Best Place To Get Polymer
Collecting resources in Bethesda games can be quite a drag. You’ll either have to buy them, wait and repeat, or go around picking them up. That’s why we’ll want to know where the best places to get these resources are, to ease the grind!
Here are the steps we’ll be taking to get a lot of Polymer in the game:
- Got to the Zeta Ophiuchi system.
- Select the Zeta Opiuchi I planet.
- Land on a Forest Biome.
- Look for Aruna Goldenglow plants.
- Harvest them for Polymer!
This article continues with a detailed walkthrough below!
Detailed Walkthrough
To find Polymer in the game, you’ll first need to go to the Zeta Ophiuchi system. This system can be found just southeast of the Volii system, which is southeast of the Alpha Centauri system. Once you’re there, you’ll need to go to a specific planet.
That planet is the Zeta Opiuchi I planet. There’s a city on that planet but that’s not the place we’re going to. Instead, rotate the planet and look for the forest biome. It should be called “Dedicious Forest” on the right side of your screen. Travel there and land in any area of that biome.
Once you’re there, you’ll need to look for the yellow plants shown on the image below. That plant is called the Aruna Goldenglow.
You can walk up to them and interact with them to harvest the plant. Doing so will get you Polymer! You can then walk around the biome getting as much Polymer as you want!
Botany – Greenhouse
If you put a point into Botany, and then scan the Aruna Goldenglow to 100%, you can proceed to construct a greenhouse within your base. By supplying it with water and directing its output to a storage unit, you’ll effortlessly generate an endless supply of polymer.
That’s how you can get Polymer in Starfield. Now go out there and try to get as much Polymer for yourself! Make sure to go to check out our guide on how to get Abyss Trekker ships if you haven’t already!
