Been playing the Normal for a change but need the Medium or large refiner.
How do I find he Blue Prints please? ANy ideas.

Tried most of the Anomaly and a few little outreach places on a couple of planets and cant find one..

Need it so I can craft Deutrium and get my Plasma thingy working.
It so annoying not knowing..

Thanks in advance.

It is unlocked at the anomaly. Where everything else is unlocked.

The building blueprints station on the anomaly has multiple tabs. Make sure you are looking through all of them, it's in there.

If you want to use a medium refiner without having to unlock it. Use the anomaly teleporter and go to 'star bramble village' where they have one you can use

2 ways to unlock medium refiner -
a) do the base computer building quest - very early on it gives you medium refiner for free

b) buy it with buried salvage items at anomaly

large refiner far as I know can only be unlocked via anomaly purchase, never got it via base quest

Thank you one and all for a great response.
WOZ_ Couldn't find it in there. Which desk do you suggest please?

Astasia_ It could be as its the early stages of the game it is not seen where you and WoZ suggests.

SOMAS_ You were on the money! Great idea!! worked a treat. Got bit bits working for sure. Now other bits need sorting grrrr. Al part of the game init?

Mozzy_ Not seen it in the House thing yet. Been more concerned getting shields to fight. Very slow process. But ill certainly try again.


Cheers dudes :steamhappy:

... also you can gather NipNip Buds while you are refining (you will need Hazmat Gloves), they sell for 500 to 750 thousand units too. Amazingly you can keep coming back to the Nexus/Anomaly and immediately back to 'star bramble village' and all the plants are fully grown again (should take 4 hours normally).. just rinse and repeat for a small but free amount of extra units
... you can even economy crash the cobalt you have using the Galactic Terminal in the same room as the refiner

It is there I promise. So go to the area where there are 4 npcs you can buy the tech from. In-between two of them, on the left side, there is a computer. The refiners are bought from there. Make sure you go through all the pages, there is like 8 different pages.

I do have special hands indeed. I don't like to take advantage of the things I can pick up there but i can see I must to get on quicker.

The amount of Pirates attacking my ship is getting silly. So need to get my Positron in tip top order with the shields etc. Cant deal with some of the other weapons on the ship...


Wiz wiz WOZ WOZ
Ive looked twice right where you said. I shall go in shortly on both formats of games and have a look see. It will save loads of time on the long run.

Tar Muchely Peeps.

Thumbs up!!

WOZ WOZ WOZ!!
the man!
I went back in on the Creative and saw a medium and large as you said.

I then went in there again in Normal mode and saw two huge padlocks covering them.

No wonder I couldn't see them!!

So after unlocks the previous item I then was able to get me a Medium jobby.

Many thanks for that dude!!
