Another tip! At some point you will be offered money to sell info on planets you've scanned 100%. And yes you can go fully scan planets and will make good money. BUT for quick money, whenever you go into a new system. Fly around and you can 100% scan gas giants from space. All systems have 1-3 of them. Free XP/credits!

You should add that when you sell "stolen" items (red tag) to trade authority you can use the vendors buyback tab to get the item back without the red stolen tag for the same price you sold it to the vendor (as long as you dont exit vendor UI) so if you "stolen" an OP weapon you can still keep it even if you are caught by the fuzz

Early on, when you go back to the initial moon to get Beret, grab Heller's cutter in one of the buildings. It has a disassembler mod which does 20% more damage to robots.

Dont clog your ship hold with crafting resources. The lodge workshop in the basement has a storage box right in the middle of the room on a table. Put all research mats in the box. When you want to craft, grab them all and craft. The workbench will take what it needs from your inventory automatically for the recipe. When done, put everything back into the box. The box has unlimited space.😊

Another tip: with the first rank of ship piloting you unlock the ability to use thrusters. This is not the same as the passive turning bonus. There is a button (RB on controller) that puts you in thruster mode. While in thruster mode you keep going the same direction you where when you pressed the button but you can freely spin your ship around while keeping the original momentum. Someone behind you? Boost away, hold the thruster button, spin 180 and take them out while still speeding away from them.

Additional tips: When looting, just pick up Space suits & $ guns. They can sell as much as a quest. Equip your ship with shielded cargo and scan jammer to hide contraband. Some great tips though! Thanks!

DO NOT fast travel everywhere. FT to your ship then take off, once in space THEN FT. And if going to a planet without a city, FT to the planet orbit THEN FT to where your going. Alot of random encounter happen when arriving to and leaving a planet (some are on planet). So FT everywhere EXCEPT taking off and landing. There are some GREAT encounters

TIP: When you reach Constellation and they give you your own personal room, go in and store EVERYTHNG you dont need in the safe because the safe ... has UNLIMITED INVENTORY SPACE. (This made things so much easier when i found this out.

For the digipicks, start inside and work your way out. Less chance you get a false positive. Since I’ve started doing this, I’ve actually had no wasted picks and spend less time doing the locks

Great video! Slightly disagree with the second tip of stop picking up junk. If you plan on perking into commerce,(i feel like every build should as early as possibly) you need 250 unique items, which is easy when you pick up one of each item. A black stylus and blue stylus weigh next to nothing and both count as a separate "unique item". Had all 4 ranks before level 10. Very rich very early 😊

Hey Dom! Thrilled for your Starfield content. One tip I will add, for any Fallout 4&76 veterans: Legendary explosive weapons in Starfield only switch to explosive projectiles about 25-30% of the time, unlike fallout where every shot was explosive - but the explosions in Starfield are WAY more powerful, and they can be buffed by demolition perks. Each time the explosion happens it doubles the damage of the shot, and it can cause you severe injury so make sure you’re not too close. Automatic and semi automatic weapons are best for the Explosive legendary effect, the more you can shoot the more explosions you get!

1) Before giving things to your companion, make sure you are not in range to your ship, you might be able to transfer things, even inside an instance, if you are 250 mts or closer to ship. (If you are pc player, H is the key for ship cargo). 2) Idk why but all the other companions works fine, but VASCO will constantly dissappear. Sometimes he'd be with me, sometimes he wont. So actually he's one of the "worst" companions, but he's good at combat (if he's there and not in the ether). he won't talk or have an opinion on things you did, where all the other companions actually do and they even speak to your from time to time. BUT i think it's good to have him out because something that happens later in the game. 3) BE CAREFUL when building your base. I've encountered a pretty much game breaking bug where your ship will partially dissappear (no floors, no walls, etc). This can happen if the ship meshes with the big landing pad that you can build. Landing pad will adjust it's height depending on the terrain, an there's some interaction there that can F up your ship. Don't know how to avoid it, but I do know how to solve it. If parts of your ship are missing, just go and modify your ship, erase that part, and put it back again. That will fix any glitch/bug with the spaceship. 4)If you are playing as a "good" character, avoid getting into the quest where you need to infiltrate as a bad guy (its kinda at the beginning of the game actually). 5)IF you are playing on normal difficulty, don't waste your skillpoints with weapon or damage skills at first. You'll be fine and there's a lot more gampeplay and cool stuff if you focus on base and /or ship building.

At the circular menu screen, you can highlight your active quest at the bottom of the circle and hit set course to travel to your next objective. Saved me soo much time so far.

Great starter video. 👌 The Vasco trick leaving him outside your ship works with all companions, they will jump into combat. In regards to needing a companion for their storage space, really not required as you literally can walk around with 1000s of KGs of junk and never die even if you run, loose oxygen and your health meter! The only downside is you can not fast jump, but even this can be borked using the Space born ability to create an atmosphere around you allowing you to run indefinitely. In the Den, don't forget the trade terminal by the seats where you can sell an additional 5k worth of goods.

I became overwhelmed with ALL the side quests. I could be walking by someone while they are talking to a group of friends, and BANG, I have another side quest without even interacting with them.

Best guide so far. Most others talk in circles and it's unorganized. Your guide is way more lucid.

I find working the locks from the inside ring first and work to the outside ring is best.

A better tip for leveling weightlifting, get super overencumbered at one of your outposts and build a bed. Just run a 4 step circle to completely drain your O2 then rest in the bed. Resting instantly fills ur 02 back up, just rinse and repeat. Got level 4 weightlifting in less than 10min this way

Great tips Dom! Awesome to hear you love Starfield! 🙌 I just started playing today (just a level 9, almost 10 😅), learning everything on the "fly", it's safe to say/type that this is my GOTY. As a huge fan of TES and Fallout I'm glad Bethesda is staying close to the roots! 😁🚀🪐 Great content and please oh please...more of these Starfield related ones! 🎮🤟 Have an amazing weekend dude!

I'd say picking up junk is worth it only at the beginning of the game, and only to level up commerce (where you have to sell 200+ unique items)... once you have commerce maxed by level 5... then stop picking up junk. Also, and I am knitpicking - they are called digipicks 😜. Great video !

Yessss so glad you’re making Starfield content! Love your stuff dude🔥!

Most tips videos around Starfield are like: "This is your mouse, if you click a button on it you screen makes flashy things" But you had actually some useful things to say, thanks. 😃👍

Cheers Dom! Great vid and helped me out no end. Keep it up Buddy!!

Pro tip (from my endless hours of Fallout 4 and Skyrim): quicksave before every lockpicking. Some containers are sucker plays - they contain really crappy loot and aren't worth wasting lockpicks. Great vid Dom, thanks.

Really good guide. One of the best I have watched for starfield. Subscribed. Cheers

Some great tips! Thank you!

Super helpful tips! Thank you. 😊

Glad to see some new videos from your channel. I watched a lot while i played eldern ring. Great content

Yesss my favorite Elden Ring content creator is doing Starfield vids now!!!

excited for more starfield stuff Dom!

Great tips! Thank you.

Dendrobiolgist? Got that one at bar trivia the other day. :D I knew it because of tree ring dating.

Thanks for the tips! I don't play a lot of video games, but this one has me hooked!

You made me excited to play this, thank you!

Tip: if you give your companions a gun, any gun, and 1 bullet for that gun they will use it. Includes grenades. Give them 1 grenade. Same with armor, helmets, clothing.

Another tip about loot, if you are close to your ship (I think it was within 250m, but it could be further) you can access the freight storage remotely like with the vendors. So no need to load up yourself and a companion, run back and empty.

This was actually fun to watch! cool for a "Tips" video

Great guide thanks for the tips.

I think it's digi-pick.

Tip #2: Very early game collecting all that junk can serve a purpose as leveling fodder for the merchant skill. You can power level that skill super fast that way, with needing more skill points to unlock the next level being the biggest hurdle.

Great stuff. Cheers.

I never knew most of those tips. Thanks!

Oh YEAHH yuh know i’d love to see more videos of StarField!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wondered when you were going to get on to Starfield, good lad.

I just started playing a week or two ago and after all the videos I’ve watched to help me out, this is the most helpful one. Thanks for helping me out in Elden Ring and beyond!

I enjoyed your video very much on your tips etc, am looking for some help trying find places or people.. The first one is MANTIS :READ THE SECRET OUTPOST SLATE, just can' t remember how to get into that room, another one which l've tried Speak to agent plato, .Am not good at figuring out things out, l am a eldery player finding the game pretty hard, any help would be greatful..

Loving the game ..thanks for this guide 🎉

I love how the the final tip is just "kill every witness without mercy"

Thank you 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

You don’t need to go to your ship. Just access the menu, go to ship and press cargo. You can move things to and from your ship while exploring.

I think you are the first person who likes to fast travel. I have seen so many complaints that wish you can fly from planet to planet or manually take off and land. Same for on land travelling. I myself love fast travel. Yeah it maybe fun to manually fly a ship once when landing or taking off or going between places but that crap get old very quickly. I think teleporting would look cool.

Great video man i watched a few tips video's already amd yours is by farr the best and easy to understand ad a new rpg player!

Great vid

I think the Casino with the Vault and the contraband respawns every 24h? I haven't tested it myself since I havent gone there to try, but I think it was mentioned in another tips and tricks video.

Good man dom, playing through this myself I’m delighted your covering it, you done very well by me with your elden ring content 👏❤️

Those are great tips man thanks for the advice

I just always save before persuasion, then i hit the highest 1 until it works 😂. Works great for me lol

Good tips 😊

There is some aurora you can get very early game in an abandoned hangar very close to the Kreet research lab, if you're able to take on 40 pirates with Vesco. The location may be part of a later mission bc there's a spaceship there that disappears. The contraband scan jumping to Jemison definitely caught me off guard, bc you're not *supposed* to have found contraband yet the 1st time you encounter the scanners lol. I had to backup a save & build a transfer container with an outpost on Kreet to put it in.

Actually, if you are in the early game and you need to level commerce. Collecting all the junk and then selling it to level the Commerce perk makes it super easy to max it out and get those sweet buy discounts and sell bonuses right from the get go. Really easy to meet your unique item sale requirements that way.

Ive learned that you use a say, industrial table where ya make stuff, and TAG everything. I mean everything. Same with the medical, i mean anything. Eventually ill have the resources memorized like i did in fallout 4 but..for now this is a great way to tell whats not junk.

One last TIP: F5 no game has any power stronger than freely saving and loading, from time travelling to teleporting, even the killall command, nothing in no game is more overpowered than the ability to save at any time and as many saves as you want and then just load back. F5 quicksaves, F9 quickloads (not F7, lol) get used to it and you can roll with 1 hp and be just fine. Even if you saved at a bad spot you can still load the autosaves in the game and never bother with dieing or wasting digipicks or losing persuasion minigames, or even getting 3 ship parts of every ship destroied if you really want (I'm usually fine with at least 1) Anyways, F5 FTW

Shoot big animals for easy xp, combined with well rested an tranquilitea.

Regarding digilocks if you see a button to remove inapplicable lock tools, it will cost a digitool but may be helpful to reduce the confusion of too many combinations.

Pro beginner's tip, give your companion the ashta tamer, with unlimited ammo they're extremely op early on with that one

Thanks so much for the video on the best ship The Stronghold to get in the game. I swear I'm an idiot and can't wrap my head around constructing a ship from scratch. I guess I am not very creative and the whole process is very confusing so when I can get enough credits to buy that ship I have your video saved so I can go back and upgrade it by following your video. I didn't read all the comments here so my apologies if someone already mentioned this tip but theres a glitch for getting credits that is so easy (5000 credits each time) You go to Akila (sp?) and on the road right outside of I think it's Shepards? You crouch down by a puddle of water and his stash will pop up for you to grab. And boy what a stash it is. Everything from books to food, to digipicks, those 5000 credits, and ammo (which of course has no mass) and some weapons and resources (iron, beryllium, etc). Then you just sit at the chair on his porch, wait for 48 hours, and then (if you want the credits to propagate again) you MUST go inside and ask him to show you what he has. You just have to wait for his wares to show up, then back out, and go back outside to the puddle and grab everything you want. Remember you must crouch down for the stash to pop up or you won't find it

Question for you I wanna be a game tester and since this is sponsored by Bethesda do u know any ways I could make this happen?

Does the Almagest reset for contraband every 24 hours or is it longer?

First tip: focus on main story is the best tutorial, after u have time enough to explore and had all the tips basic from the game + better ships, loot, weapons, crew etc

Omg I didn’t know about the cargo hold!!! Whattt!? You just blew my mind! I was just dropping everything in the kitchen area to make room lmao I was pissed my captain locker was so small.

Do it Dom 😀. You got me thru Elden ring ........ I Need you to get me thru this 👍

Question, does the storage spaces from your home act the same as your cargo from the ship. Can I access those from anywhere like with the ship?

This is a really informative vid for newbs.

The VASCO tips are gamechanging...

I was actually thinking about how and if i could upgrade the cutter for future use if i run out of ammo. I also kinda like the lockpicking in this game. I have never came close to enjoying any lock picking in any game ever. Not sure why this one tickles my fancy lol

One tip about companions they have infinite ammo so I always load one up with N67 smart gun or other very high fire rate weapon as there is no danger of them running out of ammo

When you go into the cargo hold what happens when you click the B key??? It says jettison. Like where does the stuff go??? Please help!

Do space encounters like the Almagest ever reset?

There are two chests down there there is one under the Jemerson building on the left hand side before the ship vendor

I have not seen any videos saying that if you are over encumbered to use the personal atmosphere power.

Another tip I just realized the other day. I had the cutter set to my favorites bar but if you pull up your scanner and hold the fire button he pulls it out automatically. Just incase someone didn't know this one!

Vasco is very nice as well.

Its funny, every tip video mentions mouse 2 with the cutter. First thing I tried with the thing. Funny.

For more ammo, pick up all weapons too; enemies leave ammunition in attached magazines.

10:23 - *Sees vasco moonwalking* peak bethesda game

Marika was my very first crew member just by chance. I got her for half price and just thought that was how you did it. I then went and sat her in the ship and left her there. I'm now 99.8 hours in, and I have never used her. Until this video I didn't really pay too much attention to her at all.

Not so much a tip, but just a little thing to make a few extra bucks. If you go to the security office in neon, if you can sneak into their evidence room, there are about ten caches of contraband in there. Just steal them, run down the promenade to the trade authority, and sell those puppies for a decent amount of credits.

Maybe get them to make it so you can open doors with the scanner up? I is hard to break away from grabbing junk. Ever since Fallout 3 the game teaches the players that it is a good idea to pickup junk. Mostly because you can build stuff out of it. Now all the sudden this is no longer a thing. It's going to take awhile... No, you don't burn though your O2 when you are walking, only when jogging and sprinting. Cap locks key binding for PC to toggle between walking and jogging. Might want to point out that you can always expand your ships cargo space by a lot. ;) Biologist

The one and most important tip u miss is how the unity keeps track of u each time u go in or out of it

Threat Scan: non-combatant “Respect”

Another tip you missed is the cutter is better then you think. Simply level your laser skill as high as you can and the cutter will blow through enemies stupidly fast.

I accidentally lost or sold my cutter early on lol found a artifact and had to shoot it with a laser gun to get it out. I suggest yall keep a eye on that, you can buy another cutter it was just a pain figuring out were to get one and etc.

Oh! I had no idea the game had procedurally generated quests! That is awesome. Has any game done that before? I mean any big game like AAA quality.

Funfact, i was so interested in the crafting system that i endet the main story when you go to constilation for the first time. Then i played the crafting part of the game and started with the main story again when i was lv 87 :D

2 vs 1? Laughs in Stealth Archer Build I go solo my friend.

Hold on... did I hear that right and you said that you were level 8 at the time you set foot onto Atlantis for the first time?? I thought I already stretched following the main quest line out more than I'd usually have done, but I'm only level 3 (I think) and I just arrived in Atlantis 😅 looks like I'm flying right back and start manually visiting all the planets and moons of that first solar system... OH! And I loved this video 😁

Fast travel does not work on local map. Hovering over districts just says fast travel to ship. You have to use your scanner to find the district you want and then hold the button prompt to fast travel.

Can’t wait for the mod people to start pumping out stuff for the game

Dude I got lost in the almgast for almost half an hour, and I still never found those safes lol
