Farming Titanium
- Dismantle old Epic and Legendary gear: PCGamesN calls this the easiest source.
- Bailey, the vendor at the camp just after Trench Town, sells Titanium and Epic guns you can dismantle for more.
- Elites and bosses: replaying the same missions to kill them is the most effective drop farm.
- Raise your World Tier: Titanium is a reward for certain tiers and for missions at World Tier 9+, and higher tiers mean more gear to dismantle and better odds from ore veins.
Anomaly Shards
Shards only come from dismantling gear, and each attribute uses its own shard type (shown by the icon in the item description). They raise bonus attributes in the crafting menu’s “Raise attributes” tab; dismantling an upgraded item refunds part of the shards you put in.
Habits That Keep You Stocked
Dismantle instead of selling once you have enough Scrap, pick up every ore vein and animal on the way, and keep a farm route on a World Tier you can clear without dying. See the levelling guide for the best tier farms and our Outriders page for sellers.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the fastest way to get Titanium in Outriders?
Dismantle Epic and Legendary gear, buy from Bailey, and farm missions on World Tier 9 or higher.
How do I get Anomaly Shards?
