What's the best way of finding new multitools?

visit planet side trade stations and talk to all the vykeen you meet.

[Kashra Fall]

Alternatively, you can scan for outposts or shelters and there is normally a multi-tool on a wall (But it isn't free like the vykeen.)

Dumb ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ luck.... thats the best way

persistence, luck, and like John Wick sheer f***ing will.

YEs... That can play into it... I would say explore... I have found very good MT's at small outposts given out by the NPC not hanging on the wall. You can get some nice MT's free same as finding crashed ships. FYI have 100 carbon in inventory... Just sayin'...

Talk to every NPC you can find. As Squish notes, sometimes it's just luck.

Visited a random outpost on a barren planet and made the usual conversational complements with a Gek about their marvelous scent. They gifted me (no cost) with a 24-slot S-class multitool. Almost all of the slots needed repairing but, even so ...

There's also a multitool in the Space Anomaly.

I haven't tried this yet, but I read that Anomalies are scripted events; which means you can farm them. You have to land in the Anolamy, check out Polo's gun, then reload your previous save if you don't like what you see (I'm pretty sure if you reload current it loads you in the Anomaly and the MT doesn't change on reload). I could easily be very wrong, I've only used this type of farming to find s-class ships at trading posts.

Maybe but you have to buy it... Much better to get them free on planet. Every game I've started I got an upgraded MT free in one of the first three systems.

I tried going to a trade post with vykeens but none of them offered me and mutlitools

Playing the game is the best way to find multitools I suggest!
Praize Jezus!

I've never bothered trying to farm for a better MT, so I didn't really think about price. I was under the assumption that Polo has a higher chance of spawning crazy s-class weapons. That being said, I get most of my farming strats and info from obscure forums posts so again, I could easily be very wrong.

While not really looking for one I'm able to find or even given a A or S class 25 slot+ multitool by exploring but could just be my luck, I'm running a 25 slot S class atm that I got for free worth 5mil+, I'm really hoping I can score another free S class when I start fresh in NEXT!

All multitool interactions work like this, however your limited to a set pool of about 3-5 guns with +/- 1 grade of tool per solar system.

Each encounter can pick from 2-3 of the available tools for that sytem.

Best way is to google multitool locations and go visit someone who found a S grade alien or experimental tool (depending on your preference).

I have a 24 slot MT yet every new one I find has way less slots than that.
