To get Refined Parts in Once Human's Way of Winter scenario , you need to loot level 20-30 areas. The southern Vena Fjord region is a great place to start — follow the road along the snowy mountain and raid every camp and town you see.
The first thing to do is fast-travel back to your base and interact with the Supplies Workbench. It should already be built as part of the starting objectives to expand your territory in Once Human . If not, unlock Essential Tools from the Crafting Memetic upgrade tree and build a Supplies Workbench.
Enter the void and defeat all enemies in it. A portal will soon open, and you'll find yourself in a child's room. There's a chance that either a Chefosaurus or a Pyro Dino (an offensive variant of the Chefosaurus) will appear here. There's also a chance that nothing will appear at all. If a deviant does appear, simply interact with it and hope that it gets captured.
View each Isolated Securement Unit to see what type of conditions your Deviant needs in order to recover faster. Some will require certain colored lights. Others will want music to be playing near them.
There are different types of Deviations that you can encounter on your travels. Each type of Deviant has a special ability, and you can utilize them by capturing the Deviant. Some can be captured by chance when you see them floating in the world. Others can be found by completing quests, defeating Deviant bosses, and performing certain activities.
Combat Deviations can be activated by syncing it to your cradle . This is done by interacting with the facility and pressing 'F' or clicking on the 'Sync To Cradle' button in the lower-right corner of the facility menu.
Whispers work similarly to the Tarnished's Wizened Fingers in Elden Ring , allowing players to leave messages on the ground for others to read. They can contain anything from a simple hello to welcome new players, a warning about a trap or a roaming boss up ahead, a helpful tip to solve a puzzle , or just plain ramblings.
You can build multiple Isolated Securement Units to store all your captured Deviations. Pressing 'F' while in front of it will allow you to access the facility and view all the details of a stored Deviant .
The Chefosaurus Rex is a non-combat Deviant that helps around the player's house in Once Human . They're giant, stuffed, fire-belching dinosaur plushies that breathe a bit more life into the homes of players by cooking food and running around while they aren't doing anything.
Season Goals are often tied to the story or theme of the scenario. Finding them is easy – just access the in-game menu with the Esc key and look for the section dedicated to Seasons . There at the top bar, you'll see a list of the current goals , along with their descriptions, and the rewards you'll get for completing them.
For instance, the first Deviation you get is the Combat Deviant called the Butterfly's Emissary . Pressing 'E' while it is synced to your cradle will allow you to pick whether to have it automatically attack any target or to attack a target of your choice .
nGetting a small crew of Digby Boys to happily dig ores while you're away is great for stockpiling resources. You'll never have to mine again once you get three of these little guys in your base. They'll stay with you even if you move your territory in Once Human , making them useful everywhere you go. Here's where to find these deviants
nCompared to other deviants, Digby Boys are a bit more unique. You don't capture them like you do others. Instead, you have a chance of getting The Digby Boy as you mine Silver Ore . While we currently don't have the exact numbers, the odds of getting a Digby Boy are pretty decent. Simply mine an ore node until there's nothing left to collect. There's also a chance of getting a Digby Boy by mining Tin, but the drop rates here are much lower compared to mining Silver
The Way of Winter scenario in Once Human takes place in the previously-inaccessible northern fringes of Nalcott island, and players are restricted to this zone only. As such, none of the previously mentioned areas are available. However, you can still get Special and Refined Parts the same way you do above: loot level-specific areas and dismantle materials.
nThe Digby Boy will automatically gather assorted minerals for as long as it has any Deviant Power remaining. Once it tires itself out, it'll quietly recharge itself in its containment unit until it reaches a specific Deviant Power level. You can set this level by clicking on the small gear icon on the right side of the screen when inspecting the deviant's containment unit
The option to craft Whispers automatically comes with the Supplies Workbench. There are no other crafting requirements or recipes. Each Whisper item costs 5x Wood , which should not be a problem with the amount of trees available in Once Human .
nOnce you've caught a Digby Boy , go back to your base and build a vacant Isolated Securement Unit. Interact with the Securement Unit, then deposit the Digby Boy in it. A general tip for beginners : you should build as many Securement Units in your home as possible and store your deviants in them
