There are multiple ways to acquire spaceships in Starfield, whether through theft, purchase, or completing quests. However, one ship stands out from the rest: the Razorleaf. This guide will walk you through the steps to find and claim it.
What’s it about: The Razorleaf is one of the best beginner spaceships in Starfield, and you can grab it early in the game. Unfortunately, you can also quickly overlook it. We’ve taken on the Mantis quest for you, captured the Razorleaf, and now tell you how to do the same.
This is what you can expect in our guide:
- What quest starts the mission to Razorleaf, and what do you have to do for it.
- How to find the note to the secret base and start the Mantis quest.
- How to complete the Mantis quest and the puzzle to get to the Razorleaf.
- Bonus: This is how you find the Mantis armor.
- We’ll also explain what makes the Razorleaf so unique.
“The Old Neighborhood” Mission – How to get the Razorleaf in Starfield
When you start the game, you’ll undergo a tutorial-like mission called “The Old Neighborhood.” This mission takes you from Mars to Venus and teaches basic spaceflight skills. You’ll be prompted to scan a satellite during the mission, leading you to the Nova Galactic Staryard.
Pro Tip: When heading to the Nova Galactic Staryard, prepare for strong enemies, especially robots. Bring ample ammunition and healing items.
Arriving at Nova Galactic Staryard and Getting the Note to the Secret Outpost
Upon your arrival, eliminate all the spacers and look for a note titled “Secret Outpost” on some of the corpses. Reading this note will activate a new mission named “Mantis” in your quest log, directing you to a hidden base.
The secret base you must go to now is located on the moon Denebola I-b in the Denebola star system. The moon orbits the planet Denebola I. The star system is located directly below Kyrx on the left side and down to the right of Cheyenne.
Once you have found the base, you will soon come across a puzzle that wants to be solved by you.
How to Solve the Mantis Puzzle in Starfield
As you navigate through the base, expect high-level enemies; stock up on ammunition. After defeating them, you’ll enter a narrow corridor filled with turrets. Here, you have two options:
- Solve the puzzle: Check the bodies of fallen spacers for a voice log that reveals the password “T-Y-R-A-N-N-I-S” to deactivate the turrets. Walk over the corresponding letters on the floor.
- Bypass the puzzle: Use the “AMP” health item to boost your speed and run through the corridor. Reaching the gate at the end deactivates the turrets.
After bypassing more traps and robots, you’ll find yourself in the Mantis hideout. Right in front of you is the Razorleaf ship. Activate the platform using a switch, and the ship is yours!
In a room further to the left, you’ll find the Mantis armor, which offers multiple perks like increased carrying capacity, self-healing, and the ability to set nearby enemies ablaze.
Ship Customization and Reputation of the Razofleaf
You are welcome to customize the Razorleaf to your heart’s content in Starfield. Despite any alterations, people will still recognize it due to its established in-game reputation. This reputation earns you admiration from friendly ships and instills fear in pirates.
