Ferrystones and Portcrystals
Place portable Portcrystals near remote objectives
A placed Portcrystal turns a remote outdoor area into a destination you can revisit by Ferrystone.
WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Place portable Portcrystals near remote objectives
Suitable outdoor ground near a remote objective you expect to revisit.
Before you go
- Acquire a portable Portcrystal, including the Monster Culling reward in the current update if eligible.
- Reach the objective or a nearby open outdoor area.
- Carry a Ferrystone or Eternal Ferrystone for the return trip.
Farming steps
- Identify a remote objective you expect to revisit, such as an exploration area or a resource route.
- Travel there and find open ground outdoors near the destination.
- Use the portable Portcrystal from inventory.
- If placement is rejected, move to another suitable outdoor position and try again.
- Confirm the destination appears on the map before leaving the area.
- Later, use a Ferrystone outdoors and select the placed destination from the map.
- Retrieve the portable crystal by interacting with it if you want to move it to another route.
- You can have up to ten Portcrystals placed at once, so reserve slots for destinations that save meaningful return travel.
- Do not confuse a Riftstone, which is used for pawns, with a Portcrystal travel destination.
Repeat, collect and use
Repeatable as a setup activity while you have portable Portcrystals and open placement capacity. Portable stones can be retrieved and relocated; fixed destinations cannot.
Common mistakes
- Trying to place the stone indoors or in a restricted spot; move to valid outdoor ground.
- Leaving before checking the map for the destination; confirm placement first.
- Using the placement cap on places you will not revisit; reclaim and reposition a portable crystal when priorities change.
When to stop or switch
Stop when the objective appears as a travel destination or when the route is no longer worth a Portcrystal slot.
