How to get Storm Breaker Coating
Research in Stellaris is drawn: each area offers 3 cards at a time, weighted by each technology's draw weight (here 75) and its weight modifiers. Tier 2 opens after 6 tier 1 technologies of the same area.

In the game
This special coating charges the ship's exterior with a storm dampening field, leading to more efficient protection against storms.
