Open world indoors Outcast – A New Beginning is a sprawling adventure where players can tackle activities and side quests in any order. Right from the start, the game dumps a lot of information on the player and pushes them into a brand new world. This guide compiles the most useful tips to help players get oriented quickly, maximize their experience, and enjoy the action that defines this ambitious title.
How to Make Money (Zorkins)
To buy important upgrades, a steady supply of local currency, called zorkins, is essential. The simplest and most dependable method to earn them is to locate valuable items scattered throughout the world. These artifacts can be sold to merchants marked by a bag of coins. Here are some valuables found during play and their approximate values:
- Statuette of ancient Sai – 100 zorkins;
- Blue Helidium Flower – 100 zorkins;
- Precious ore – 60 zorkins;
- Golden Mushroom – 20 zorkins;
- Talan figurine – 15 zorkins.
Focusing on early discoveries and selling them at appropriate outposts yields a steady trickle of income. Players should keep an eye out for hidden caches and decorative relics in abandoned areas, ruins, and underwater zones. These treasures not only boost wealth but often unlock doors or vendors that accelerate progress.
How to pass the eruption slide
Defeat the designated number of monsters, then head to the center and press the action key (default is E). To pierce a hole, strike it three times in melee. After each strike, several monsters emerge, but careful timing lets you land three hits before they retaliate. Rewards include materials that improve the character’s capabilities and survivability in upcoming encounters.
Enable Teleport (daoku).
Teleportation is activated to enable fast travel using the daoki core. The core can be found at the outpost near the activation site. As the story progresses, energy shields shield many outposts, but they open in sequence, so locating nuclei first is not always necessary for traversal early on.
How do you pass the Altar of Essence?
After powering the portal, follow the guiding light through the obstacle course. Time limits are in place, and checkpoints must be visited in order. Use dashes and jumps to move quickly. Carry multiple batteries to sustain several jumps. Completing this challenge permanently increases the character’s maximum health, providing a substantial advantage as the game unfolds.
How to assemble a bugot
The game hides resources in unusual ways. To pick up a bugot mushroom, approach slowly until the interact prompt appears. If the player gets too close, the mushroom will explode, so timing matters.
How to choose morag
Within the treetop settlement of Emea, morag fruit can be collected. Jump close, then press the action button. A short delay during flight means timing is key, but gathering is straightforward with a little practice.
How to complete additional tasks with parkour
Locate the glowing flower and activate it. Some tasks require specific skills, and you will be shown which abilities are needed to complete the job. Touch blue orbs to restore energy and unlock more jumps. Red orbs slow movement. The tests usually take place at higher elevations and may not be finished quickly. If needed, restarting the test can help you regain momentum. In the end, break Orim’s chest with a melee attack to obtain blue chelidium and push forward.
Where are the rare items?
Many diaries, weapon parts, and story items lie underwater. To dive, press the kick button. Clues aren’t always on the surface, so dive deeper and explore submerged areas to uncover all secrets hidden in the murky water.
How to improve skills
Upgrading the jetpack requires blue chelidium earned through trials. Enhancing fighting techniques relies on nano batteries that drop from defeated enemies and from supply chests. Collecting these resources steadily increases combat effectiveness and mobility.
How to upgrade weapons
After acquiring the Upgrade Modules skill, the character can upgrade body kits via the menu using nano batteries. Weapon upgrades become available later in the story and can be completed at a hermit located in the map’s southwest region.
How to help a settlement
Each village hosts a warehouse where certain resources can be transferred. Residents rely on these materials to complete secondary missions. Filling these racks when possible helps avoid delays later on and keeps progress smooth.
How to complete side quests
Talk to locals with an exclamation mark overhead to start new quest chains. To track progress, open the map menu, select a settlement, and view the quest window. The window shows forks, progress, and required goals. Choose a quest icon and click the left mouse button on the task text to place a marker on the map, making it easier to navigate. Many quests require playing time, and progress is reflected in the quest log as a blue bar.
