How to Get Special Parts and Refined Parts in Once Human

You’re going to stumble upon metric tons of junk while playing Once Human. However, one man’s trash is another man’s treasure, as they say. Players will need to gather lots of Refined Parts and Special Part for their mid-high-tier crafting projects, and digging through mounds of seemingly useless garbage is the best way to get them.

Finding Refined Parts and Special Part is going to be confusing at first, especially since they don’t just appear randomly as part of regular loot tables. This guide for new Once Human players aims to alleviate a bit of that confusion in hopes of helping players find these crafting materials as quickly and as easily as possible.

Logging Beavers are extremely useful when it comes to passively gathering resources in Once Human. Here’s where to find one.

Updated November 19, 2024 by Marc Santos: While all Once Human Special Parts and Refined Parts locations on Nalcott remain the same, these materials are found in different areas on Way of Winter’s map. Basic principles like acquisition and level requirements are the same as before, but since players will be visiting new areas, we’ve updated this guide to mention the places where players can find these two resources on the snowy mountains of northern Nalcott.

How To Get Refined Parts In Once Human

Unlike other resources, you can’t get Refined Parts as loose loot. Instead of picking them up, you need to make your own by disassembling the random junk you find while exploring. Specifically, you need to gather junk that spawns around the Iron River region and beyond if you want to get Refined Parts. Here are some items you’ll want to look out for when raiding POIs:

• Riot Shields
• Smart Stereo units
• Scrap Fine Barrel
• Scrap Fine Body
• Scrap Fine Stock

How To Get Special Parts In Once Human

You get Special Part the same way you get Refined Parts — by dismantling junk. The only difference here is that Special Parts can only be obtained from items that drop in higher-level areas. Specifically, you can start getting these items once you start exploring Chalk Peak (Lvl. 32+) and beyond. You’ll want to look for electronics and appliances, which you’ll find plenty of in residential areas, rec rooms, kitchens, and even Securement Silos. Holt Town and Furnace Lair in Chalk Peak are great places to start.

Some items that yield Special Part include:

• CPUs
• Coffee makers
• Ovens
• Bearings
• Scrap Sniper Rifle Body
• Scrap SMG Body
• Welding Machine

Regardless of what kind of parts you need, the only way to get them is to dismantle junk in a Disassembly Bench. Most (if not all) junk items are useless by default, so you can freely disassemble them at home once you get the chance.

Refined and Special Part are key components for crafting higher-tier equipment and vehicle parts. Before you go crafting items, you’ll want to stock up on Energy Links in Once Human, as many high-tier recipes require thousands of them as part of crafting costs.

Special Parts and Refined Parts in Once Human Way of Winter

The Way of Winter scenario in Once Human takes place in the previously-inaccessible northern fringes of Nalcott island, and players are restricted to this zone only. As such, none of the previously mentioned areas are available. However, you can still get Special and Refined Parts the same way you do above: loot level-specific areas and dismantle materials.

To get Refined Parts in Once Human’s Way of Winter scenario, you need to loot level 20-30 areas. The southern Vena Fjord region is a great place to start — follow the road along the snowy mountain and raid every camp and town you see.

To get Special Parts in Once Human Way of Winter, you’ll need to raid level 30+ areas. The best place to get Special Parts is the Ember Strand on the western end of the map, which mainly contains level 40+ enemies. You’ll often find junk here that can be scrapped for both Special and Automatic Parts. You can also try raiding Securement Silo Psi and 08, which are levels 30 and 40 respectively.
