The fastest ways of getting Energy Links hasn't changed much from the previous betas and the current release of Once Human . If you're looking to get thousands of Energy Links per hour, here are two of the best ways to do so.

Despite the potential infinite ammo of a crossbow, the weapon reloads very slowly and isn't ideal when dealing with the bigger enemies found throughout the world. Bullets shot from guns can't be picked up, but still offer a much higher damage per second output than the crossbow and many melee weapons. Playing with friends and using guns can make even the strongest enemies easy fights.

When in the Gear Workbench menu, players can select which gun type and tier they want to craft. Along the bottom of the weapons, menu will be the various parts that need to be crafted to make that weapon. You'll need enough materials to make all three parts at once , as one part can't be made and set aside, all three parts will need to be crafted at the same time, making the gun in the process. While guns are useful tools, players should first secure a steady source of food and water .

Updated August 16, 2024 by Marc Santos: The mid-August patch for Once Human introduced new content, balance changes, and a revamped fishing system meant to reduce the frustrations players have been experiencing with the mechanic. The entire system has been reworked to be much easier, hopefully making fishing-related events more tolerable for those who don't necessarily enjoy this activity.

Like in most games, fishing can be a quick and convenient source of food in Once Human . The game doesn't force this mechanic on anyone, but for those who want to live near bodies of water, snatching up some fish makes for easy meals.

All weapon types and tiers will require different materials to craft. The most common way to obtain materials to craft a gun is by exploring and looting scraps in monster-infested structures found throughout the world . Scraps are random things such as cups, pistons, old gun parts, and any other thing that can be picked up while exploring. While scraps are found randomly, many are found in Storage Chests and Trash Cans. Players will also need to get the Disassembly Techniques upgrade from the Infrastructure Memetic upgrade tree to build the Disassembly Bench .

Fishing in this game isn't terribly complicated, but it can definitely be confusing at first. If you've decided to move your base in Once Human next to a river or lake and want to get some free food, then fishing is the way to go. Here's a short guide covering the basics of fishing.

The second way to replenish Sanity is through consuming Sanity Gummies . Sanity Gummies are perfect for using on the go when exploring Pollution Zones or after encountering hostile monsters. Players will acquire Sanity Gummies through the initial tutorial phase of the game but will have to craft more once their supply runs out.

Crafting and selling equipment is the easiest way to earn Energy Links. However, this method is very expensive, especially in the early game where players don't have many resources to work with. Although, if you find a nice spot full of Iron in Once Human , you can start making and selling iron-tier items for a decent profit. You don't necessarily need to use Iron — if you find a good place for farming Tin and Copper, you can craft Bronze Pickaxes and sell them to NPC vendors for a good chunk of Energy Links in the early game.

To start, you'll need to craft a Fishing Rod. Bring 20 Logs and 10 Copper Ingot to a Supplies Workbench , then select the Fishing Rod from the list of craftable items. Once it's done crafting, place it in a vacant quickbar slot.

Prior to the mid-August patch in Once Human's first season, fishing involved holding the left mouse button while moving your camera away from the fish, simulating a real fishing attempt. After the big patch, it is now much simpler.

Additionally, you can try trading Weapon Calibration Blueprints with other players. The most valuable ones can go for up to hundreds of thousands of Energy Links. You can get these blueprints by farming Securement Silos or bosses and dismantling any weapons you get.

Securement Silos are basically dungeons filled with loot and enemies. Naturally, they can be very dangerous. You'll want to craft new guns in Once Human , preferably the highest tier you can get, before attempting to challenge one.

While some of the buffs experienced by Whims may sound pretty useful, their debuffs are just as important to take into consideration, on top of the player's reduced max health. This is where managing your Sanity comes in. There are two main ways to replenish lost Sanity in once Human not Launching Human .

Take scraps back to the Disassembly bench to break them down into various materials based on what you collected, and take those back to the Gear Workbench to try and craft your gun. Some guns will also require smithing materials such as Tin , Copper, and Iron, which can be obtained through mining and using a Furnace to smelt the materials.
