Resource Nodes & Locations

Mastering resource gathering is paramount to your survival and progression in Enshrouded. Different biomes and areas offer unique materials essential for crafting, building, and upgrading. This section details key resource nodes, their locations, and strategies for efficient harvesting.

Wood & Stone: The Foundation

These are your most basic and frequently used resources, vital for early-game construction and crafting.

  • Wood:
    • Node: Trees (various types).
      • Location: Abundant in most starting areas, particularly the Springlands. Look for dense forests.
      • Strategy: Use an Axe for faster harvesting. Be mindful of your surroundings; some trees can be quite large and may fall in inconvenient directions.
  • Stone:
    • Node: Stone deposits and rocky outcrops.
      • Location: Commonly found near mountains, cliffs, and in rocky terrain. The starting area has plenty of accessible stone.
      • Strategy: Use a Pickaxe. Larger deposits will yield more stone. Keep an eye out for veins of raw stone embedded in larger rock formations.

Metals: Forging Your Future

As you venture further, you'll need metals to craft better tools, weapons, and armor. These are often found in more dangerous or remote locations.

  • Copper:
    • Node: Copper Ore veins.
      • Location: Primarily found in the northern parts of the starting area, often in rocky outcrops and cave entrances. Look for reddish-brown veins. The area around the Nomad Highlands is a good bet.
      • Strategy: Requires a Stone Pickaxe or better. Mine these veins until depleted. You'll need to smelt Copper Ore into Copper Bars at a Smelter.
  • Tin:
    • Node: Tin Ore veins.
      • Location: Often found in similar locations to Copper, but can also appear in underground areas. The Nomad Highlands and surrounding rocky areas are good hunting grounds. Look for grayish-blue veins.
      • Strategy: Requires a Stone Pickaxe or better. Smelt Tin Ore into Tin Bars. Copper and Tin are often found near each other, making for efficient mining runs.
  • Iron:
    • Node: Iron Ore veins.
      • Location: Found in more challenging environments, typically deeper into the Shroud or in mountainous regions. The Kindlewastes and areas further north will have more Iron. Look for dark, almost black veins.
      • Strategy: Requires an Iron Pickaxe. Iron is crucial for mid-game progression. Smelt Iron Ore into Iron Bars. Be prepared for tougher enemies in Iron-rich areas.

Specialty Resources: Enhancing Your Gear

These resources are vital for advanced crafting and unlocking powerful upgrades.

  • Flax:
    • Node: Flax plants.
      • Location: Grows in the Plains of Silence and surrounding areas. Look for fields of tall, slender plants.
      • Strategy: Harvest by hand or with a Scythe. Flax is used to craft Linen, which is essential for armor and other advanced items. You can also farm Flax by finding seeds.
  • Shrouded Wood:
    • Node: Dead, gnarled trees within the Shroud.
      • Location: Only found within the Shroud biome. The intensity of the Shroud increases with distance from safe zones.
      • Strategy: Requires a good Axe and protection from the Shroud's deadly fog. Shrouded Wood is necessary for crafting advanced building components and some high-tier items.
