Ceramics in Death Stranding 2 are an essential crafting resource that helps you make items such as skeletons, back protectors, and more.

The world of Death Stranding 2 is vast and beautiful, with its rendition of Mexico and Australia being some of the most breathtaking locations we’ve ever seen in a video game. The world is beautiful – too beautiful, in fact, and can lure you into a false sense of safety, only to be smacked by the first mob of enemies you find.
To stay safe and capable of handling threats, Death Stranding 2 empowers you with various enhancements and gear accessories, all of which make Sam stronger and more durable. Items like the skeletons improve Sam’s offensive capabilities, overall defense, and mobility. These items aren’t found out in the open, however, and instead need to be crafted, often using Ceramics.
Ceramics are an essential crafting resource in Death Stranding 2 and are used to craft several items in the game. The list of items you can craft with Ceramics includes skeletons, back protectors, vehicle equipment, and more.
If you wish to cruise through the map as effortlessly as possible, you need all the gear that Ceramics crafts. The issue is, however, that Ceramics can be difficult to obtain if you don’t know how to farm them. If you wish to farm Ceramics, keep reading to find out how to do so.
