Besides having a name similar to a Pokemon from the first-generation era, Ember is a powerful variant of the Solstice. But to acquire one, you’ll need to get a day job. That is, it’s locked behind a lengthy faction quest. It’s not so cut and dry, however. To get Ember in Starfield, you’ll have to join Ryujin and complete a few different quests with side steps involved.
Where to Get Ember in Starfield
To get Ember in Starfield, you’ll need to enlist with Ryujin Industries, a corporation based in Neon that adores stealth and sabotage. As you follow their questline, keep an eye out for “Top Secrets.” It’s a quest involving shaking down a character through persuasion, credits, or by completing a side job. If you want Ember, then choose the side job option.
From there, you’re tasked with tracking down the Datura orbiting Saturn. A character onboard, Malai, is holding on to Ember, and she’ll only hand it over via a persuasion check or upon her death. It’s up to you which option you take.
Ember Stats and Details in Starfield
Personally, the Solstice always felt like one of those toy guns you buy at a dollar store. You know, the type that shoots foam balls. But the Ember variant offers a little more bang for your buck. Its pre-installed mods, especially Ignition Beams, cause additional damage and burn enemies. It’s a bit more exciting than a toy gun.

Ember is an excellent early-game laser weapon for those who would instead opt for a more science-fiction route than, say, the Eon or Urban Eagle. With a few points in Lasers, under the Combat Skill Tree, you can easily turn Ember into a powerhouse that ignites enemies!
