Starfield: How To Get Cobalt

This article is part of a directory: Starfield: Complete Guide & Walkthrough

Starfield is a cool new game in the science fiction genre with a bunch of stuff to explore. For example, players will have to do a lot of research to develop their outposts, equipment, weapon modifications, and much more. For this, various ores are often used, which are quite difficult to farm in large amounts. So if fans are facing such a problem, they are in the right place. Here they will find a detailed guide that will tell them about the best spots for cobalt farming.

Best Cobalt Farming Spots

In fact, cobalt is not a super rare ore, on the contrary, it is quite common. Players can find this ore on many planets and moons. Due to the large number of planets, it can be concluded that cobalt will be straightforward to find by traveling through space searching for other ores and collecting cobalt as an additional reward.

However, if the goal of users is to collect cobalt in big amounts, for example, for Power Generation 1 or Robots 2 research projects, it is important to know the best planets for farming this resource. So, the best spots for cobalt farming that are found near the start of the game are the following:

Bismark (Cheyenne System)
Hawley (Alpha Centauri System)
Lovell (Alpha Centauri System)
Montara Luna (Cheyenne System)
Triton (Sol System)
Venus (Sol System)
Vos (Alpha Centauri System)
Zamka (Alpha Centauri System)
