How to get Ancient Rampart

Research in Stellaris is drawn: each area offers 3 cards at a time, weighted by each technology's draw weight (here 35) and its weight modifiers. Tier 3 opens after 6 tier 2 technologies of the same area. As a rare technology it is drawn less often, and some rare ones only appear after an event, a relic or a special project.

Conditions (potential)
  • DLC: ancrel
  • Not: Nomadic empire

In the game

Defense platforms are a cost effective way to ensure our safety, but they need to be monitored from an operation center. Fortifying our Starbase to ensure its survivability in the event of an attack, and maximizing our capacity to network independent orbital defenses would give us more time to dispatch reinforcements.

Console command

Typed in the game's console (the ~ key); achievements are off for that game.
