Palladium electrodeposits are a cybernetic implant that provides compute power to the local lattice, which is a resource that can improve the effectiveness of certain other cybernetics and items.

Acquistion

By nature of being a cybernetic implant, it is not necessarily guaranteed to find palladium electrodeposits in a given playthrough, especially when the relatively limited availability of cybernetics (compared to other items) is taken into consideration. However, despite this scarcity, there are specific places where the user can look in order to maximize their chances of a successful acquisition.

  • Alternatively, if the user would rather guarantee eventual access to a copy of palladium electrodeposits, they can take the following action:
    • Under normal circumstances, the guaranteed gutsmonger present at the Six Day Stilt only provides a restocking inventory of 6-8 implants taken from the cybernetics 1 drop table. However, gutsmongers, unlike most other merchants, adjust the tier of their wares to correspond with whatever zone they are currently standing within. This essentially means, that if the user were to make a gutsmonger a follower, such as by using the Proselytize skill or a love injector, the user could then transport said gutsmonger to a mid-tier location such as Ezra, in order to have access to a permanent and restocking source of mid-tier implants.
    • The newly transported gutsmonger can then be cloned with a rebuked cloneling in order to massively increase the number of cybernetics available each restock. Allowing the user with enough dedicated farms to eventually obtain any implant of any tier.
