Weapon mods can be crafted by spending Platinum in Starfield, a valuable resource that you can farm best on planets close to your character’s location as you travel through the galaxy. A Rare Tier 2 material, Platinum, may also be bought from New Atlantis, Neon, and Akila City vendors. However, knowing which systems hold this resource might be better if you would rather harvest this item without spending money.
Materials do not have to be farmed by your character manually if you build a Resource Extractor at an Outpost on a world with the item(s) you want. Buying Outpost upgrades in Starfield for this Extractor will allow you to get more Platinum or other items quickly, even as you travel. Make sure to also create a Transfer Container so you can transport goods from your Outpost to your ship whenever you want.
All Planets For Farming Platinum in Starfield
A combination of 67 planets and moons holds all the Platinum you will ever need in Starfield to have every ingredient for the High Velocity, Bullet Hose, and Hair Trigger weapon mods. High Velocity enhances a gun’s accuracy and speed, while Hair Trigger increases the overall rate of fire on a weapon. On the other hand, a Bullet Hose significantly boosts accuracy, rate of fire, ranger, and tracer frequency of an attached weapon.
In order to get the three mods available through this resource for your best weapons in Starfield, you will need at least 3 Platinum for High Velocity and Hair Trigger, while only 2 Platinum is needed for Bullet Hose alongside other materials.
