Farming Tips
Here are some basic tips to keep in mind while farming for the resource.
Use your Ghost perks
The Ghost has a variety of perk options you can use. If you Masterwork your Ghost Shell you will unlock a certain perk that can highlight chests and resource drops for you. Both chests and resources nodes can show you where to find drops. You can get some Glacial Starwort per chest, so it’s a better idea to hit up the chests over the nodes. The nodes can give you a few more items as well, just to speed up farming. You can also boost the resources dropped from nodes up to two. And finally, if you combine this with Combo mods you can get both chests and resource nodes highlighted.
Combine the methods
Patrols are good for a few of these items as well. You get a few planetary resources, and there’s a chance to get this item each time you complete one.
Patrols and other public events in the region will also have Glacial Starwort sometimes, so be sure to grab those when you’re out doing bounties. Speeding up farming by combining each of the mission types together can easily gather dozens of the items per run, vastly reducing the time needed to farm.
