− | + | Tiles of uranium ore can be found rarely throughout the map, but must be [[mine]]d before they can be used. Small amounts of it can be salvaged from deconstructing [[Ancient shrine#Ancient Cryptosleep Caskets|ancient cryptosleep caskets]], or may randomly arrive in cargo pods. The most reliable method for acquiring it is to [[trade|purchase]] it from [[Trader#Bulk Goods Trader|bulk goods traders]]. Once you've completed the [[Research#Deep drilling|research]] necessary to construct a [[deep drill]], it can also be found in small deposits underground. | |

+ | Uranium's high hit point multiplier make it a useful material for [[walls]]. A wall created from Uranium has 750 hit points which makes it the second strongest constructed wall, stronger than any of the stone blocks and only beaten out by [[plasteel]]. This role was more important while plasteel was still flammable, as uranium was the strongest non-flammable wall, but even now it still has merit when an excess of uranium or dearth of plasteel is experienced. | ||

+ | Uranium is also the best material for crafting [[stuff]]able blunt weapons such as [[club]]s and [[mace]]s, as it applies the highest [[Property:Melee Blunt Damage Factor|multiplier]] on melee blunt damage of any material, tied only with Jade (which can only be used with clubs), and only causes a [[Property:Melee Cooldown Factor|moderate increase]] in attack cooldown times. A high [[quality]] uranium mace is a respectable weapon at any stage of the game. | ||
