Moonwood Branch Locations

Discover the best locations to find Moonwood Branches in Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora. Learn how to get Superior and Exquisite variants for crafting powerful longbows.

Alright, so you're looking to snag some Moonwood Branches, huh? Think of these like the upgraded version of Night Leaf Branches you might have grabbed earlier. They're a bit trickier to find because they only grow inside these big, dome-shaped bushes called Sheltering Bushpods. You'll mostly find these Bushpods chilling in the Windswept Grasslands biome, which is part of the Upper Plains. Most of these Bushpods have an opening, so you can just waltz right in. Not every single one will have trees inside, though, so whip out your Na’vi Sense to check from the outside before you commit to going in.

These Moonwood Branches are pretty sweet for crafting. They're used in longbows, and because they're a bit stronger than Night Leaf Branches, they let you make some seriously good weapons. Slap a Moonwood Branch into a longbow, and you'll get the Powerful Draw passive. What that does is boost your damage by a solid 20% whenever you fully draw the bow. Plus, if you're doing favors for the Zeswa Clan, the Community Contributions basket at The Circle will ask for one, though any type will do for that.

Now, if you're hunting for the really good stuff – the Superior and Exquisite Moonwood Branches – you'll want to head to the eastern shoreline of the Greatheart Lake. That's in the Mother of Rivers area, pretty much just north of The Circle. If you've unlocked the Beachfront Field Lab, that's a great fast travel point. From there, just hug the shoreline heading northeast, and you'll find more Sheltering Bushpods. Dive into those, and you should find the rarer variants. When you're harvesting, remember to push the left analog stick to the left as you pull off the branch to get that pristine quality. Oh, and for an even higher quality harvest, try to do it at night!
