Some of the resources you’ll find inStarfieldare mostly there in case you intend to go deep into the game’s optional base-building mechanics. You won’t need 500 pieces of iron, for example, if your goal is as simple as to fasten some neat mods on to a preexisting spacesuit. Well, we assume you won’t, at least.

And then there are the ever-present resources, the ones that seem to pop up as part of a crafting equation every turn you blink. Sealant is undoubtedly one of them, and we bet you’ll be running out of it faster than you may keep a good stock. Thankfully, there are ways around that.
Strange New Worlds
First, we’ll tell you how to get sealantas a secondary objective while you’re out exploring planets. How much you get out of this will vary tremendously, assome worlds lack any type of flora or fauna with harvestable bits acting as a sealant substitute, whilst others are teeming with a species guaranteed to drop sealant.
Since sealant, in its organic form, is common among certain types of animals, our recommendation is tovisit planets and moons that appear lush with life. Odds are good at least a couple of things here, be they dinosaur-like aliens or flowers with poisonous branches, will have some sealant.
Gather as you go, or if you find a world that’s got alotof the stuff,consider leaving, advancing time a few days, and returningto harvest more.
Typical Old Shops
While sealant is an uncommon - but free! - commodity across the cosmos, it’s pretty muchguaranteed to be in stock at certain vendors in settlements. Warehouse-esque places, likeJemison Mercantile and UC Distribution on New Atlantis, as well as their equals in Akila City and Neon? Good calls.Trade Authority shops?Also good calls.
You can also find sealant lying around near workbenches and suchin the many bases, civilian structures, and abandoned labs you’ll bump into. But, while you’ll surely pay less for one, you’ll have a better chance obtaining sealant in bulk if you clear out a store’s stock. Much like finding sealant in the wild,you can advance timea while until the merchants restock their wares, too, should you be in need of a serious sealant spree.
