Starfield

All Outpost Defenses and Building Costs

By
Jessica Dillon

If you want to make a solid outpost, then you will need to have a way to defend it from the hostile creatures that find their way into your space. This can be done by making defenses to wipe away any hostile enemies that want to disrupt your peaceful outpost like. Defenses can be a bit expensive to fully invest in, but you can start building them up from the very moment you establish your outpost. The guide below has every defense you can make and what their building costs are.

You can start placing defenses as soon as you build your first outpost in Starfield.

All Defense Outpost Options and Their Building Cost

If you have an outpost then you will want to set up defenses to keep it safe. These can help deal with bounty hunters that come after you or hostile wildlife that wanders close to your base. Defenses are a must but can be quite costly to make.

Starfield is an action role-playing game from Bethesda Game Studios set in a futuristic interpretation of space exploration and colonization. Earth has long been abandoned, but there are plenty of other planets in different star systems where humans have ventured and settled. You have the freedom to create your own character with a unique background, but the main story will take you through a series of adventures as you uncover more information about mysterious artifacts which create gravitational anomalies. Along the way, you can build and customize your own space ship, establish your own outpost, befriend and romance new companions, and more. As a Bethesda game, you can also expect to see a lot of creative mods which have the potential to change your experience of the base game, or take it in an entirely new direction.
