No Man's Sky: Earn a lot of money (units) quickly - how it works
In No Man's Sky you have various options to quickly earn a lot of money (called units in the game). We have summarized the best tips for you.
Units by selling valuable items
Keep an eye out for rare items that almost every planet holds.
- Therefore, diligently scan your surroundings with your multi-tool and look for items with a green marking.
- These are rare resources and items. Slightly glowing rock formations also provide valuable materials.
- You will also find green boxes near buildings and storage points. Their content is mostly valuable because it contains amulets or pearls that you can sell for around 20, 000 units.
- However, watch out for the guards you might attack and fly your loot straight to a dealer or to the intergalactic trading terminal to sell them.
Earn money through discovery
After you have repaired the analysis sight of your multi-tool at the beginning of your adventure, you can scan planets and the life forms on them to obtain new information about them.
- Units can also be earned in this way by loading everything into the atlas under Discoveries.
- Analyze each planet as closely as possible to get money by uploading the information.
- You get 500 to 2, 500 units for plants, animals and rocks, 2, 000 units for naming a planet, 5, 000 units for naming an entire system and 1, 000 units for a waypoint.
Trade with materials in No Man's Sky
Buying and selling materials from retailers can also help you achieve wealth. To do this, fly to a space station.
- When buying / selling, pay attention to the colored percentage next to the item. If this is green, you will get a better price than usual.
- The sale of dark green items is particularly worthwhile. So look for interested trading partners who want to put as many units as possible for it.
- If you store a lot of iron and platinum in your inventory, you can craft bridging chips. These can also be sold at good prices.
