When you enlist a Claim Stake in Faction Claims on Play.StarAtlas.com, you begin generating R4 resources, the essential materials needed to fuel most economic and gameplay loops in Star Atlas.
What Rewards Do I Earn?
Once enlisted, your Claim Stake produces four types of R4 resources:
Fuel
Food
Ammunition
Toolkits
These resources are automatically generated over time and can be claimed directly to your wallet.
What Determines the Amount of Rewards?
The tier of your Claim Stake determines how much R4 you earn:
Higher-tier Claim Stakes (Tier 2–5) generate greater quantities of R4 per hour.
Lower-tier Claim Stakes (Tier 1) produce less but require lower upfront investment.
Each Claim Stake is limited to producing R4 only when actively enlisted in Faction Claims. You can view and manage your enlisted stakes here: https://play.staratlas.com/claims
R4 Emission Rates by Tier
Here's how much R4 each Claim Stake Tier generates per day:
| Tier | Ammo | Food | Fuel | Toolkits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1,426 | 1,454 | 2,160 | 2,102 |
| 2 | 12,384 | 11,923 | 11,002 | 12,485 |
| 3 | 25,546 | 24,883 | 28,682 | 26,496 |
| 4 | 82,296 | 77,889 | 82,296 | 74,952 |
| 5 | 272,808 | 268,344 | 214,675 | 263,894 |
The higher the tier, the greater the daily output of resources
💡 Important: Claim Stakes will stop generating R4 once their storage capacity is full. Be sure to claim your rewards regularly to avoid production halts.
Why Is R4 Important?
R4 (Fuel, Food, Ammunition, and Toolkits) is essential to many gameplay systems in Star Atlas and represents the foundation of the in-game economy.
You’ll need R4 to:
Maintain your fleet in Faction Fleet
Craft items and components in SAGE
Operate and upkeep Starbases
If you don't produce R4 through Claim Stakes, you can still buy or sell it directly on the Star Atlas Marketplace or craft them in Sage
R4 is always in demand and managing it well is key to maximizing your long-term gameplay and earnings
