Golden Rations are one of many resources players will collect inHyper Light Breakerto progress through the Overgrowth and grow their Breaker. Hyper Light Breaker is a bitlightin terms of explaining in-game mechanics and resource acquisition, which can be a bit frustrating for new players. We have you covered and here is everything you need to know about Golden Rations and how to get them in Hyper Light Breaker.
Acquiring Golden Rations in Hyper Light Breaker
Based on what I have played so far, there are two ways to acquire Golden Rations in Hyper Light Breaker.
At the End of a Cycle
Whether you finish a cycle by beating the bosses including the Abyss King or using up all4of yourREZS, you will be greeted byPherus Bitat theTeleporteronce you respawn atThe Cursed Outpostto start a new cycle.
Pherus Bitwill grade your performance throughout the cycle, and reward you with Golden Rations in the “End of the Cycle” report.
If you’re dying a lot, which you likely will during the early hours, it’s not all bad since you’re actively progressing towards unlocking more Golden Rations.
Golden Rations Farming Strategy
During a regular run through the Overgrowth, you can skip fighting the bosses, and most of the enemies and head straight to theTelepad Exit.
Here, you’ll have to fight a few enemies which aren’t that difficult and can be safely extracted once the extraction process is completed. This way you won’t lose a REZ (since you aren’t dying), and you can continue doing this to add to your overall Golden Ration progress so when you do complete a cycle you can earn more than one Golden Ration.
Overgrowth Exploration
The Golden Ration can also be found in different stashes and treasure chests in the Overgrowth. It’s a very rare resource, but you can get lucky and find it multiple times during the same run. You are likely to find these near Prisms, or inside Underground Labs.

When he isn’t spending an unhealthy amount of time in Slay the Spire, he’s probably trying out yet another retro-shooter or playing Dark Souls for the 50th time.
