The primary sources of Plastoids are Stormtroopers and Star Wars structures.

Head towards the wrecked Star Destroyer ship – you’ll spot plumes of smoke marking its location. As you get closer, you’ll encounter more Stormtrooper patrols. Defeating these hostile forces will make them drop Plastoids, along with Scrap Durasteel.

Another option is to destroy any Star Wars decor or buildings you come across, like banners, boxes, or bases. Many ruined huts near the Star Destroyer crash site contain breakable objects that will yield Plastoids when demolished with your pickaxe.

Finally, keep an eye out for Rebel Icons on your map. These mark Rebel Outposts where you can farm more Star Wars materials by wrecking the place!

The primary use of Plastoids is to craft the Rebel Workbench, which unlocks the ability to build epic Star Wars items.

With this special crafting station, you can create powerful weapons like Bowcasters and Thermal Detonators, or handy tools such as Macrobinoculars for locating Star Destroyers.

For the tough fights ahead, make sure to gear up properly before venturing towards the crash site. The Stormtroopers hit harder than in the movies! Having a vehicle will also help you cover ground faster.
