Carbides

are an uncommon Resource dropped by Eximus units found in the Grineer Shipyard tileset, primarily Ceres and Sedna, and can also be found in Empyrean missions as a possible loot drop. They are predominantly used in constructing, upgrading, and maintaining the Railjack.
Carbides are also dropped Earth Proxima missions by Grineer, crates and ships.

Research	 								
==Gathering Tips==
*Carbides are significantly more common in Empyrean than in the Grineer Shipyard tileset.
*Kuva Lich and Arbitrations missions can spawn Eximus units more often as a result of their higher level, allowing for easier farming.
*Any Endless mission types on Ceres is a great source for Eximus units, with higher waves spawning more Eximus units.
**Seimeni, Ceres is a Dark Sector Defense mission that is very good for farming, yielding 100 or more at wave 20 due to high Eximus spawn rate.
*The Mobile Defense node Kiste on Ceres can be good for a quick way to farm due to the high chance of Prosecutors spawning. These Prosecutors are considered as Eximus units and can drop the resource.
*Carbides can be farmed in Sorties on Lua with Eximus Stronghold condition.
==Notes==
*Carbides can be found on Berehynia and Marid, Sedna, which use the Grineer Shipyard tileset.
==Trivia==
*A carbide is a compound of carbon and a metal. As per the resource's description, some real-life carbides are incredibly durable and very heat-resistant compared to other metals.
*This resource is presumably used for riveting.
