Neuropolymers are an important in-game resource in Atomic Heart. You can never have enough of it, so it’s essential to set up a reliable farming method for this particular resource. Although there is no straight way to only farm Neuropolymers, the tips mentioned in this guide will increase your chances of getting some in every situation. Let’s begin!
How to farm Neuropolymer in Atomic Heart (Normal Techniques)
Flying Repair Bots
- A flying drone appears whenever you kill a robot to try to repair it.
- These drones always drop a single neuropolymer upon being destroyed.
- Once you destroy it, there won’t be a second drone to repair the robot, so you can’t farm neuropolymer endlessly.
White Human Robots With Mustache
- Mustache robots are tough enemies that can give you a decent amount, 10 neuropolymers when defeated.
- Taking them down can be challenging, so be prepared with enough resources for a prolonged fight.
White Human Robots Without Mustahce
The average robot will only give you 3 neuropolymers.
Looting
One way to find Neuropolymer is to search through every available interactive objects. Although not the most efficient method, it can yield a decent amount of loot.
Endless Drone Farming
- In the mission “In Hot Pursuit,” when you reach the Seed Bank, take the elevator and find an active flying drone dispenser.
- Use the shock attack to disable the dispenser, causing drones to spawn one by one.
- Eliminate each drone using a melee weapon.
- Each drone drops one neuropolymer, so the method is not very efficient, but it can provide a decent haul over time.
Infinite Resource Farming
To farm for neuropolymer, you’ll need to have Mass Telekinesis and Forced Fall Acceleration skills. You can also acquire other modifiers to increase the damage and efficiency of the process. However, the two aforementioned skills are sufficient for beginners.
To begin, position yourself under the surveillance camera in Testing Ground 1 and wait for enemies to appear. Use Mass Telekinesis to instantly kill them, and then finish off any remaining enemies with melee attacks. Make sure to stay within the camera’s range, as leaving its field of view will turn off the robots’ aggression and reset the alert level. If you find yourself overwhelmed, move out of the camera’s range to kill the remaining robots and reset the alert level.
This is a reliable method for farming neuropolymer, as well as other crafting materials. Note that this strategy was effective at the time of writing but may be patched in future updates.
