Phillyhouse 0 Posted October 15, 2019 First post! Xbox player here, I've been hopping around N12/M12 most of the long weekend with some xbox mates, although another website (Atlas Gamepedia Wiki) lists neither N12/M12 as having gemstones, though we found rubies on both the single islands we chose to make homes on in those regions, yesterday, we've ventured further south into the tundra and are now looking for gems in another area. Are gems considered a primary resource and found on every island or at least guaranteed to be on one island per sector? The actual sector we're in (secret) doesn't seem to have any so far, after finding every other conceivable primary (including salts) resource. We've checked roughly 80-90% of 2 of the 3 islands so far and we'll continue to search, but are gems so scarce??? Thanks for any advice, for gem farming, we're just friendly guys used to getting destroyed like we do in Ark or Conan, except you can't permanently kill a cockroach, so we're best to just let be and help you out, we're the fellow backrubbers in a prison jail shower, instead of the usual soap dropper stalkers.

Vurmis 24 Posted October 15, 2019 Unfortunately in regards to resource locations that particular wiki hasn't been kept up to date as well. There are a handful of fan run tools/websites out there with much more accurate listings of resources. To your question, no resource is guaranteed to be in a server grid. This is largely driven by the biome of the server grid. For instance in your case, Tundra and Polar grids are going to have far less resources available (but can be very rich in metal resources). There are no gems in N13 for example, but there is in N14 and N15. Once you start trying to build blueprints, you'll have to travel all over the places to collect all of the types of resources you'll need to craft them.

Sydhart 163 Posted October 16, 2019 (edited) Gemstones are fairly rare. Not every grid has them. https://exploreatlas.co.uk/explore/ is a good resource and kept up to date. Edited October 16, 2019 by Sydhart Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
