On the potentially lethal planet of The Alters, mastering the Vertara Drill will significantly aid your exploration endeavors. Initially, it might seem slightly perplexing when you first employ it, but don’t worry, here’s a simple guide:
1. Activate the drill by pressing the designated control on your device.
2. Observe the surrounding environment as the drill scans for valuable resources and potential hazards.
3. Once the scan is complete, the drill will provide you with a detailed report of its findings.
4. Utilize this information to make informed decisions about your exploration path or safety measures.
5. Repeat this process whenever needed during your explorations on The Alters.
How to use the Vertara Drill in The Alters
In your workshop, you can create The Vertara Drill. First, enqueue it and then position yourself at the conveyor belt for interaction. This will make the drill resemble any other item. Once done, proceed outside to the rocks obstructing the path close to where you initially discovered the Rapidium.
As a gamer, I found myself taken aback by the unique way this drill operates; it was a bit puzzling initially. Turns out, the drill’s location isn’t just any random spot, it’s quite particular. Initially, I thought it was a handheld device, which led me to stand too near the rocks. However, I soon realized that wasn’t the case. Instead, give yourself some distance and either press ‘Q’ on your keyboard or hold down the left shoulder button to open your tool radial menu. From there, pick the drill icon, and you’ll see a highlighted zone a few feet ahead of the rocks’ front edge.
Position the drill right here, since it won’t function anywhere else. Then, get yourself positioned behind the drill and engage with it. It will then emit a powerful laser beam that blasts through rocks, clearing your path ahead. Each time you use the drill, it consumes a charge, so remember to replenish them at the workshop.
