General Information about Kirite planet in Starlink Battle for Atlas Starlink Guide and Walkthrough

Kirite is the first planet that you will explore in Starlink. This is where the Equinox has crashed after the Legion's attack. Initially, you only have access to a certain part of the planet. You can explore it freely once the Equinox is fully operational again.

The desert landscape of Kirite.

Kirite is a desert type planet. The majority of it is covered in sand and hot springs that are richer in flora. However, the places with hot springs are more dangerous than the deserts - these terrains are filled with rocks which have to be avoided. Also, staying too long under water will overheat your ship. Most of the resources found on the planet are various metals. They are found mostly near hot springs and ruins scattered on the map. Here, you will also encounter heat and frost Novas. You can find them near the Spires that can be activated on the planet.

Tips

1. Activate Spires to get money and additional modifications fast. There are 5 of them in total. To activate each Spire you have to solve a puzzle.
2. Be in good relations with the Observatories. You can offer your help to every encountered Observatory. Complete their mission to receive rewards and the citizens' gratitude. By doing that you get access to their discoveries in the surrounding areas. You can also place beacons to increase an Observatory's reach. Each facility has a specific number of available beacons. Use them to speed up the process of discovering the surrounding areas.

Shaletown Observatory is the first facility of this type that you will encounter in the game.

1. Fire and Frost weapons are your best choice. Thanks to them you will be able to cause thermal shock that deals additional damage. Cyclops, the most common threat on Kirite, are very vulnerable to this type of attack. The only moment when this combination of weapons doesn't work is in The Eye of Kirite - its warden is vulnerable only to kinetic damage.
