Biomutant: How to Craft a 7-Star Weapon (Starstruck Trophy/Achievement)

Biomutant is an ambitious, open-world game developed by a small team. It has reached an impressive concurrent player count on Steam and has a beautiful world and fascinating idea at its core.

One part of Biomutant that players have found interesting is the weapon crafting system. Unlike other systems that involve the abstract fusion of materials into seamless, finished products, Biomutant's crafting is more like building something with Legos. It's this system that must be used to get the Starstruck achievement/trophy, which requires crafting a seven-star weapon. Here's how to get Starstruck, the quick and easy way.

1. Forget everything you know about crafting guns in Biomutant. Only melee weapons are required for this to work. In fact, only one specific melee weapon is required for this Starstruck crafting trick to work.
2. The weapon is called the Pri Murgel Sword, and it's hidden away in a cave. It's an oddly mystical sword for a game focused on science and mutation. In order to find the sword, first, the player must find a way to it through the reactivation of the Lumentower.

1. The Lumentower is in a lake, in an abandoned lighthouse on an island. Getting in requires solving one of Biomutant's rotation puzzles, which isn't very difficult. After that, head to the top of the Lumentower and turn the light around.
2. Follow the marker on the map to some mystical writing on a wall and interact with it to open a cave. This is the resting place of the Pri Murgel Sword. However, there's an enemy in the way, and it's both big and fast.
3. After defeating the Surf Huggel, activate the three mystical writing walls around the cavern. This will allow the Pri Murgel Sword to be drawn from its island in the center of the cave.

1. After this, simply find a nearby shop and buy some weapon add-ons. Slap some of them onto the Sword to raise it up to seven stars and that's it: Starstruck unlocked. In addition, it gives a sword that can measure up to most psi-powers in Biomutant, so that's a plus.

The achievement is nice but far nicer is having the sword itself, which is powerful and fiery. Even nicer, it doesn't require taking Biomutant's light or dark paths, just turning on a lighthouse.

Biomutant is available on PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
