Mastering Abiotic Factor’s crafting and survival systems can be challenging initially, but the blend of survival elements with Half-Life 2-inspired gameplay has garnered overwhelmingly positive feedback on Steam.

Early progression might hit a roadblock when establishing your base. Imagine securing the Cafeteria entrance, exploring the Facility’s second level, and fending off hostile creatures with makeshift weapons. Eventually, equipment degradation becomes unavoidable, necessitating a Repair Station – but obtaining its essential component, the Anvil, often stumps new players.

Locating the Anvil in Abiotic Factor

Five reliable methods exist to acquire this crucial crafting component:

5) Trading with The Blacksmith

Exchange one Security Bot CPU for an Anvil through this vendor.

4) Cascade Laboratories – Elevated Storage

Near the Adjustment zone entrance, use stacked objects or mobility tools to reach high shelves containing Anvils.

3) Industrial Zone Exploration

Check shipping containers and wooden platforms near the Control Tower or green pipeline areas in Manufacturing West.

2) Upper-Level Storage Facility

Access Level 3 via elevator/teleporter. Two Anvils sit in the Silo 3 storage area – one on crates, another atop shelves.

1) Nighttime Cafeteria Access

After 9 PM, navigate through deactivated ventilation systems (watch for patrols) to reach a hidden storeroom with Anvils on shelving units.
