You will first need to unlock the schematic for the Staking Unit from the research menu. To do that, you will have to spend 10x Intel Points. Also, you need to have already spent 100x or more Intel Points by this time. Otherwise, the research option won’t be available.

Once the research is complete, head to a Survival Fabricator. You should have one in your base by this point in the game. Fabricating the Staking Unit requires the following ingredients. You can either collect or buy these items.
