Doubles the amount of resources you get from pickups.

—In-game Description

The Resource Booster doubles the amount of resources earned from pickups.

Acquisition

Resource Boosters can be bought from the Market with Platinum. A 3-day booster costs 40 Platinum 40, a 7-day booster costs 80 Platinum 80, and a 30-day booster costs 200 Platinum 200.

Can be obtained randomly from Daily Tribute. The booster's duration depends on the total amount of login days: (3 × [1 + Day ÷ 100]) hours.

A 3-day booster is also offered as a periodic item for sale by Baro Ki'Teer, costing 400  400 and 150,000 Credits 150,000 to purchase. Note that Baro Ki'Teer's stock changes with each appearance, and may not be available on a succeeding appearance.

Effectiveness

A Resource Booster doubles the amount of

•  Kuva and  Cryotic gathered from Kuva Siphon and Excavation missions respectively
•  Steel Essence dropped by Acolytes in The Steel Path missions
•  Void Traces gained in Void Fissure missions
• resources gained in Plains of Eidolon including  Cetus Wisps
• resources gained in Orb Vallis including Toroids, Servofish, and  Diluted Thermia
• resources gained in Cambion Drift including caught Fish and mined ores, gems and orokin matrices
• resources gained in Empyrean(Railjack) including Anomaly Shard
• scanned objects by Codex Scanner and Synthesis Scanner, including plants and  Kavat Genetic Codes
• Vitus Essence dropped by Arbitration Shield Drone

The Resource Booster does not double the amount of

• Eidolon Shards dropped by Sentient Eidolons
• {{{1}}} Endo Endo gained (due to Endo not being considered a resource)
• Crystal fragments used to purchase  Citrine's components from Otak, along with other Rotation rewards.
• Pathos Clamp from killing the Orowyrm

Notes

• A Resource Booster becomes active immediately upon acquisition and runs out in real-time (not time present in game).
  • In other words, the boost is time-cumulative, thus aquiring additional boosters will add up on the duration timer.
• The Resource Booster is possessor-exclusive; only its owner benefits from the boost as the resource is doubled at pickup.
• It synergizes with the Resource Drop Chance Booster resulting in up to 4x effective resources acquired.
• During the Thermia Fractures event, a Resource Booster will not increase the total points from finishing a Canister and obtaining the boosted Diluted Thermia.
