01

Start with the blocked recipe

A useful farming plan begins with one blocked output. Collect an active first batch, finish the recipe, then automate only the material that keeps returning as a bottleneck.

That keeps base space tied to real demand. It also prevents a long resource run from returning six small piles while the one material needed now is still short.

Refined Ingots
Coal, then level 37 Coal Quarry

The shortest progression order

This order follows dependency, not rarity. Nightstar Sand feeds equipment such as the Metal Detector. Detection makes Chromite practical, and Chromite joins Quartz and Ore in Hexolite. Coralum opens a separate fishing branch. Cores reward a combat loop rather than a gathering loop.

1 · Night
Nightstar Sand route
2 · Detect
Chromite underground
3 · Fish
Coralum unlock and salvage
4 · Raid
Ancient Civilization Cores

Pick today's run with one question

  1. 01

    If you cannot reveal buried Chromite, farm Nightstar Sand and finish the Metal Detector path first.

  2. 02

    If Hexolite production is blocked, count Chromite, Hexolite Quartz and ordinary Ore separately before traveling.

  3. 03

    If fishing is blocked by zero Coralum, target Whalaska rather than offshore salvage.

  4. 04

    If an Ancient recipe is blocked, compare a reliable low-tier Raid with passive Expeditions before spending a harder slab.

Build a route that survives a patch

Exact spawn counts and technology levels can change. A resilient route is based on mechanisms—night glow, buried detection, a Pal drop, a raid reward—not a promise that a fixed number will always sit on one coordinate.

Keep one empty storage group for each production branch and label it by output. When a recipe stalls, the missing branch is obvious and the next run has a clear purpose.
