# The Network Unlocker

## <mark style="color:yellow;">Pristine Resources</mark>

When playing, players will rarely earn a Pristine resource that correlates to the faction of the ship they are playing. For Starbright ships, we will revert to the base earned currency where a player could earn 1 Pristine Pallasite. All other ships will earn a Pristine version of their corporation specific resource. These Pristine resources are required to craft a given Faction based Network Unlocker.

### <mark style="color:yellow;">Notes on Pristine Resources:</mark>
