Death Stranding2 Guide - How to build structures and farm materials

Table of Contents

There are quite a few survival/manufacturing components in the gameplay Death Stranding 2: On the Beachincluding gathering resource materials and building support structures. With six different resources to collect and several buildings to unlock and build across the open world, it will take a lot of work to solidify your infrastructure.

This guide Death Stranding 2: On the Beach There is everything you need to know about building structures and you can farm quickly and efficiently with the resources you need to build, upgrade and repair them.

PCC level

Buildings available for construction are not only behind the story progression, but also locked by the portable chiral constructor or PCC level. Along with the first two basic structures, you unlock Level 1 of the PCC after first establishing a connection with the Villa Libre facility during main order 003.

By establishing a connection with the dowser on Main Order 021, there are several more PCC LV1 structures in the progress path before finally unlocking the PCC LV2. Furthermore, as the story progresses, more PCC LV2 structures are unlocked.

However, PCC LV3 can only be obtained in post-credit game content. This secret upgrade is locked behind the wheel of achieving a 5-star connection level perfectly at the Mr. Impossible Prepper facility with Tar Twins. Please note that no matter how many times you order here, you won’t be able to fully begin a 5-star connection level until you close the main story.

This sub-order 124, the most difficult task you will be taking on, involves collecting seven or more containers holding chiral sculptures. In addition, there is a time limit of just 50 minutes to collect them from widely spread areas, including mountainous areas. The key to achieving this is to have solid infrastructure for automatically paved roads, zip lines, monorail tracks, support structures, and various vehicles to cover all kinds of terrain. FFFIN board and cargo catapult are very convenient. Given the limited time, you should avoid long-term gun fights during missions. Before you begin, either clear your enemy base completely or take a stealth approach to win the award.

To remove Mech and BTS from the world and to facilitate smooth mission completion, turn on the drawbridge Q‑ PID, which could have some impact on the porter grade. This option will be presented after the credits, but you can also do it via the ring terminal under the “System”.

It cannot be saved while it is running. Start your skill level from where your estimation is most challenging, then move towards an easier goal. This way, if you decide early that you cannot create the assessment you want to achieve in time, you can reset your progress from saving.

PCC LV3 structure

There is no structure specifically for PCC LV3 items. Instead, all new structures built will be upgraded to LV2. Bridges and safe houses are built not only in the basic foundation but also in a completed state without changing material requirements.

How to farm chiral crystals

Chiral crystals have a variety of uses besides manufacturing equipment. Chiral crystals are also required for building, upgrades and repairs of certain structures. For every 1000 chiral crystals, the total weight will be reduced by 1 kg and the cap may be 50 kg.

The simplest sauce for Chiral Crystal is the private shower where Sam washes it off his body.

You can collect even more in the open world using the scanner. Tar pits near the mine are similarly sources of concentration.

BTS is the guaranteed source of chiral crystals in loot drops.

How to farm resin

Just like completing a safe home, it requires the resin needed to manufacture many equipment.

A great source of resin is located in the “mining” near the F3 crater. Repair and upgrade for maximum efficiency. In exchange for 3200 resin, 1000 chiral crystals will be donated at LV1. Another source is located at the “mines” north of F6.
