In Once Human, the economy plays a vital role in your chances of survival amidst monsters and abandoned landscapes. Combo Chipsets are a valuable source of wealth, and they can provide you with numerous Energy Links. Here are some ways to get them.
Unlock Combo Chipset Blueprint
In Once Human, to start crafting and stockpiling Combo Chipsets, you first need to unlock the corresponding blueprints. These blueprints cannot be found directly in the game world, but are located in your Memetic Specialization nodes. Nodes that provide Combo Chipset blueprints appear at levels 20, 25, and 30, with the final node located at level 35.
However, getting the blueprint for Combo Chipsets is not a simple process. You need to have a certain amount of luck, as the process involves a random number generator (RNG). This means that you may need to try several times to get the right node.
If you don’t succeed the first time, you can use Specialization Cleaners to reset your specialization node and try again until you succeed. Once you’ve unlocked that precious node, you can start crafting Combo Chipsets.
Craft Combo Chipset
After you’ve obtained the blueprint, head to Intermediate Supplies Workbench to start crafting Combo Chipsets. Here are the materials you’ll need to craft one Combo Chipset:
- 10 Automatic Parts or 15 Standard Parts or 15 Rusted Parts or 12 Special Parts or 12 Refined Parts
- 20 Metal Scraps
- 30 Electronic Parts
Most of these materials are scattered around, waiting for you to collect them. You can disassemble items at Disassembly Bench to collect parts and scrap, and look for technological items that contain Electronic Parts. Once you’ve collected all the materials you need, you can start crafting these chipsets. Each combo chipset takes about 60 seconds to craft.
Sell Combo Chipsets
Once you’ve crafted a bunch of quality Combo Chipsets, you can sell them for a profit. Each chip set sells for 12,000 Once Human Energy Links, so it’s an activity that’s worth investing your time and effort into. However, you can’t sell all of your chipsets at once. In Once Human, vendors can only sell goods for a maximum of 50,000 Energy Links per week, so you’ll need to travel between town hubs to visit different vendors to maximize your income.
In Once Human, there are five town hubs, which means you can sell up to 20 Combo Chipsets per week, which can earn you 240,000 Energy Links. For those willing to put in the effort and run around, this is a pretty good income.
You’ll earn a lot of cash, but it’s important to use it wisely to strengthen your character. You should invest in higher-level equipment, more powerful weapons, and upgrades to ensure you survive and thrive in the challenging world of Once Human.
