Territory Purification

1. Obtain Eclipse or Chaotic Cortex
2. Set Up The Base Defensively
3. Survive the Territory Purification

The main way to get Starchrom is by performing Territory Purification using Eclipse or Chaotic Cortex items. Players will also need to build a Stardust Resonant Filter, as this is the facility that enables the purification process.

Obtain Eclipse or Chaotic Cortex

To start the process, players need to interact with and place a Cortex in the Stardust Resonant Filter. Up to 40 Cortexes can be purified each week, so plan accordingly to maximize the Starchrom gained from the process.

Note that carrying and using the Chaotic Cortex items in this manner will place the player and their Territory in the Chaos State, opening them up to Player versus Player combat.

The amount of Starchrom you earn depends on the Level of your Cortexes. For example, a Level 3 Eclipse Cortex yields 100 Starchrom each. If you purify 40, you can accumulate up to 4,000 Starchrom.

Set Up The Base Defensively

It is recommended to utilize Defensive Facilities in the base to assist with surviving the Purification process. Building turrets, traps, and fortifications to hamper enemy attacks are a good way to increase the odds of success.

For optimal defense, prioritize constructing Level 3 Turrets—they offer significantly better protection and firepower compared to lower-level options.

Survive the Territory Purification

The length of the Purification and strength of enemies depends on the level of the Cortex used, as well as how many are put inside. Players can press and hold F to start the process from the Resonant Filter's interface.

Once started, enemies will spawn and attempt to destroy the Filter, taking down obstacles such as walls and fortifications in the way. Players will have to protect the Filter over the duration to successfully claim the Starchrom.

Earn Starchrom from Season Goals

Season Goals are your ticket to racking up Mitsuko's Marks, the currency you can spend at the Seasons Shop. By knocking out these weekly objectives, you will unlock phase rewards that include Starchrom. Depending on how far you get, you can earn anywhere from 400 to 2,200 Starchrom, with the amounts climbing as the season heats up.

To get started, head to the Menu, click on Manibus (or the current season's name), and then hit Season Goals to track your progress and see what objectives you can complete.
