Where to find Automatic Parts in Once Human

Prepare to get thousands of Automatic Parts...

Automatic parts in Once Human are used for a variety of crafting recipes, most notably they’re used for upgrades to the Thermal Tower, a new Wonder in The Way of Winter. I’ve managed to find and hoard thousands, so here’s where to find Automatic Parts in Once Human.

How to get Automatic Parts in Once Human

To get Automatic Parts, you’ll need to go out into higher-level areas and collect scraps from enemies, the environment, storage crates, and containers. You will then have to disassemble these scrapes at the Disassembly Bench to actually get the Automatic parts.

Rarely, you can find Automatic Parts in the wild, but your primary source will be from disassembling scraps.

Where to find Automatic Parts in the Manibus Scenario

If you’re still new to the game, or if you just want to replay an older scenario, I’ve got you covered. You’ll find Automatic Parts in the Manibus Scenario in the higher-level areas around Red Sands and the Blackheart Region.

You can find a variety of storage chests next to the road in these areas that have the chance to drop scraps that can then be turned into automatic parts, but mostly you’ll find them in the following settlements:

Where to find Automatic Parts in The Way of Winter

In the Way of Winter, you can obtain parts from the Ember Strands Area. We’ll handle this region a little differently since there are many smaller settlements that can be worth exploring, while there are only a small handful of larger settlements.

First, here are the large settlements where you can find Automatic Parts in Once Human’s The Way of Winter.

Given that there are so few areas for Automatic Parts, here are smaller settlements you may want to visit for even more Automatic Parts.

And those are all the places you can find Automatic Parts in Once Human, in both the Manibus and Way of Winter scenarios.
