Getting Components in Guardians of the Galaxy

You can find Components lying around the various worlds and levels as you explore them. They’re long, cylindrical items that are often found in large piles.

You’ll find them tucked away in the corners of rooms or off the beaten path a lot of the time, so be sure to check every nook and cranny of a world before moving on.

Getting Advanced Components

Advanced Components are large yellow and dark silver balls that can also be found just laying about different levels in Guardians of the Galaxy.

Where standard Components can sometimes be found laying about on the main path to your objective, Advanced Components are almost always found in a hidden area that you wouldn’t naturally stumble upon.

The best thing to do is look out for their telltale glow and the button prompt that appears above them when you’re nearby.

What They’re Used For

Both Components and Advanced Components are crafting resources used to unlock new Perks at a workbench. Workbenches can often be found hidden away in levels, but you’ll also be able to use the one in the center area of the Milano (your ship) in between missions.

That’s everything you need to know on getting Components & Advanced Components in Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy. Head over to our wiki for more tips and tricks, or see more of our coverage on the game below.
