How do you get a replicator on genesis now?

[Masterj]

They changed the tier 1/2/3 loot boxes so the replicators do not drop from them anymore. You can also only farm element shards from the maps and cannot convert them to regular element. Even with the S+ mod you still need to convert the shards into element to make a s+ replicator in the crafting table. The mission terminals cannot craft them either. Am I over looking something?

Fabricator. HLNA store.

Fabricator:
- Can now craft the TEK Replicator (TEK Replicator has been removed from Loot Crates in Genesis)


sometimes it makes me wonder that Wildcard still cares about writing patchnotes just for a few people that are actually willing to read them.

The fabricator can make it but doesn't convert shards to hard element, guess that's boss kill only.

Its not a few. The majority of the player base do not make these sorts of threads that garner our derision. That makes for compelling evidence that the majority actually do read patch notes, are informed by others of the change, or roll with changes otherwise.

HLNA sells element.......read, pls and thx.

missions also have a chance of granting element

HLNA costs 2000 for 1 element? 100 element to craft one replicator comes to 200,000 hexagons. I've done many missions and have never recieved element as a reward. This does seem pretty broken.

Just another way to favor already established mega tribes. The only viable way i see is to have like 4 guys farming hexagon. Play bog race on beta, takes about 2.5 minutes per race and give a little more than 1000 hexagons. Buy element that you need for those points, once back in the base. Solo it will take a little more than 8 hours, but with 4 guys doing it will obviously take little more than 2 hours. Its a real pain in the @ss but i guess its the only way if you need it fast.

Or uhh... maybe harvest Element Dust and convert to Unstable Element? Also idr if you can grind element shards to dust.

or you know. not playing genesis with a fresh character because genesis isn't made to play as a fresh character.

Exctinction-learn unstable element engram
Farm element shards and tek dinos in lunar biome
Craft the starting element out of the dust to make the replicator- convert shards to element with replicator

Profit

You could do that, but killing 40 rex to get enough dust to turn into 1 element would take more than 5 minutes. smh
