Where to Find Blaster Recirculators in Star Wars Outlaws

The most reliable way to get Blaster Recirculators is to buy them from syndicate-affiliated merchants. The merchants who deal in these rare items are choosy about their clientele. You’ll need to have a “Good” or “Excellent” reputation with their respective syndicates to access Armor Shop. Each Recirculator will cost you many Credits, so keep your in-game wallets ready.

Some of the best merchants to visit for this item are:

• Lundra Nyside (Hutt Cartel Merchant) on Myrra, Akiva.
• Belo Roovin (Crimson Dawn Armorer) on Toshara.
• Clava Zeist (Smuggler Merchant) in Jabba’s Palace, Tatooine—but only if you’re on excellent terms with the Hutts.
• Pyke Lookout Vendor on Akiva—if the Pykes like you enough.

These vendors only carry one Blaster Recirculator at a time, but you can easily reset their stock by leaving the planet and heading into orbit. Then, make a quick landing again, and the stock will replenish.

Treasure Hunt: Imperial Compounds and Vaults

If you’re more of an adventurer who loves exploring, the treasure route might appeal to you. Scattered across the galaxy, some chests hidden in Imperial Compounds or vaults hold these valuable materials. A few key locations include:

• Imperial Comm Station, Toshara: You’ll need to lockpick your way through security, but the loot is worth it.
• Shaska’s Hold, Toshara: A well-hidden treasure chest that involves a bit of puzzling and wind-timing to get across a gap.
• Luda’s Stash, Kijimi: The button to unlock the door is revealed in a note nearby, so keep your eyes peeled.
• Excavation Site 12, Akiva: Be prepared to sneak around some black tents in an Imperial area to get the loot.

Remember, some of these areas might require special abilities or mods to access, so you may need to work on other aspects of your toolkit before going to hunt.

Quest Rewards

If you’re already cruising through Star Wars Outlaws and tackling side quests, you’ll be happy to know that some of them reward you with Blaster Recirculators. Two quests to keep on your radar:

• The Scavenger Quest: Complete this and you’ll get your hands on one as a bonus reward.
• The Partners Quest: Surviving the mess in Jabba’s Palace rewards you with a new Blaster Recirculator.
