Bestefar

Bestefar is one of the seven Galastropods in Astroneer.

Source
Bestefar is rewarded by completing Xenobiology missions, beginning with G. glacio: Shells and finishing with G. glacio: Recovery.

Uses
Bestefar provides increased drill width, boost and drilling ability when attached to the terrain tool for 10 minutes when fed a Seed. Feeding Bestefar a Mutant Boomalloon Seed will increase the buff to 30 minutes.

The width, boost, and drilling ability buffs are equivalent to the Wide Mod, Boost Mod, and Drill Mod 1. Bestefar's buff stacks with the wide and boost mods, but not the drill mod, requiring a Drill Mod 2 or Drill Mod 3 to handle harder terrain.

Lore
The following lore may be accessed through the Data Log panel on the Xenobiology Lab.
