Field Guide/Crafting
To establish a base of operations, your initial task involves locating crafting materials, with many conveniently found during scavenging across Longdown Valley. In a pinch, you can venture out to harvest basic materials like stone, metal, and wood directly from the sources. Whether through scavenging or harvesting, acquiring resources is essential.
Crafting materials can be acquired through looting, with certain places of interest offering higher yields. The list below serves as a helpful starting point. Keep in mind that build costs are substantial, and gathering a sufficient amount of materials may require a significant investment of time.
- Cloth - Luggage or retail store. (You can also rip apart clothing items for it.)
