Astras are unique and dangerous creatures that players can find running through the wilds of only a specific planet. Those who find and kill one of these creatures will also be able to receive useful materials from the dead creature.
Where To Find An Astra
Astras are native to the planet Akila, and there have been reports of these creatures terrorizing those who leave Akila City’s limits for many years. To find an Astra, head to Akila in the Cheyenne system, but don’t head straight to the city.
Instead, scroll around the planet and select different landing points to check the various biomes. Players will need to find and land at a Coniferous Forest biome and begin searching for an Astra. Astras are dog-like creatures with spiky scales on their back that hunt individually throughout the forest. To find one, players will simply need to run around with their scanners out and wait to identify one. They are also always on the move, making it important to begin chasing them down or attacking them immediately after being seen.
