In the challenging early access survival game, StarRupture, players are thrust onto an unforgiving alien planet teeming with hostile creatures and environmental hazards. The game's minimalist tutorial leaves much to the player's own discovery, making essential item acquisition a significant hurdle. Among these vital components is the Stator blueprint, a crucial early-game production item that is indispensable for advancing in the game.
Acquiring the Stator blueprint, while initially daunting, is fortunately not located far from your initial spawn point. Players might have even glimpsed its vicinity upon exiting their landing pod. However, reaching it necessitates navigating a treacherous landscape and confronting numerous insect-like adversaries. Prior to embarking on this mission, it is highly recommended to craft at least a pistol and some ammunition to ensure adequate self-defense. No additional weaponry or advanced gear beyond this basic setup will be required for the journey.
To locate the Stator blueprint, orient yourself by looking directly north from your starting position. In the distance, perched atop a ridge, you will discern a dilapidated structure. While it may be faint, observing the massive metal turbine dominating the horizon and then shifting your gaze to the left will help pinpoint the ruined edifice. This structure is known as Griffith's Research Outpost. Prepare for combat, as the area around the outpost is infested with multiple swarms of aggressive insects.
As you approach the outpost, slightly veer to the left to circle around the ridge, allowing you to ascend the hill with the research outpost situated to your right. The outpost consists of two main habitats: a two-story building prominently labeled 'GRIFFITS BLUECORP' and a single-story structure elevated on stilts. To claim the blueprint, you must first enter the two-story habitat. From there, make your way into the elevated single-story habitat. The blueprint itself is safeguarded within a blue chest, conveniently positioned on the floor behind a desk inside this elevated building. Upon securing the blueprint, resist the urge to immediately depart. The outpost offers additional opportunities for resource gathering. Numerous bodies can be scavenged, and other containers hold valuable supplies. Furthermore, don't overlook small piles of rubble, which often conceal useful items. Maintain vigilance for further insect swarms, as they tend to appear when valuable discoveries are made.
Once you have successfully returned to your base with the Stator blueprint, you can utilize it within your fabricator. Crafting a Stator requires two titanium housings and one wolfram wire. The fabricated Stator is a versatile component, essential for the construction of more sophisticated items or for fulfilling various contracts within the game. This vital component will significantly enhance your progression and capabilities on this alien world.
