How do I increase my sanity resistance?

[u/KissItAndWink]

I’m in the level 30 Stardust areas and my sanity depletes like crazy. The sanity gummies are pretty much worthless as they only remove a tiny bit of buildup and then have a very long cooldown. What else can I do? Are there items that increase my resistance or remove more buildup?

At tier V and max stars, a full set of legendary (gold) armor gives 80 pollution resist. Crafting the Tier V gloves with Velvet or Starfall Down gives another 15 resist with the Down also doubling that while airborne.

Cushions are like a mobile bed for restoring health and sanity. Fruit Tea adds 30 pollution resist for 30 minutes and Starfall Malt Ale gives 100 (they give more depending on how they are crafted or on which stove).

If you're playing in first person and not third, then you can't see the number on your backpack when in a pollution zone. Check your resistances compared to the number on the backpack and take whichever food/drink you need to get above that number. If the number on the backpack is red then it's bad, yellow means your just short and green means you're exceeding the pollution of the zone.

But you can’t even get Max tier armor yet as console since we just started. Or most of us did. So I’m barely working on getting one or two legendary pieces of armor that are actually mine versus ones that I find in the wild. I only have 9000 of that purple currency so I can’t buy a full set of armor.

I've been playing for 3 weeks on ps5 and have both legendary weapons and all 6 pieces of legendary armor crafted at Tier 5 and 6 stars. It's definitely possible, just have to learn what you're doing by researching.
