Where to Get Artificial Biometal in The First Descendant

The Artificial Biometal material drops from the following missions in the Sterile Land:

  • Anticipated Ambush Point
  • Deception Transmitter
  • External Reactor
  • The Barracks
  • The Base’s Power Grid
  • High-powered Jammer
  • Weapon Processing Facility
  • Biological Research Facility

The Artificial Biometal specifically drops from elite commanders who spawn in these missions. Most missions only spawn the commander near the end, so it is best to pick the fastest mission. If you are farming other materials, such as modules or weapons, you can choose to farm those missions as long as they are on the list above.

Best Way to Farm Artificial Biometal

If you want a fast way to farm Artificial Biometal, you can go to the Rockfall battlefield and finish the Anticipated Ambush Point. This is an extermination mission, so you’ll only need to eliminate a few enemies that spawn close to each other.

You can finish the mission in under 30 seconds, and it is a highly farmed mission because it is also one of the best Kuiper Shard farming locations. It is best to use Bunny as she can finish the mission in under 30 seconds without having a designated player to restart it after completion since she can run to the mission beacon fast. You can get an average of four Artificial Biometal in a run, so it’ll be a fast farming strategy.

Here are all the recipes Artificial Biometal is used for:
