WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Gold and Ornate Chests
Ruins and settlements in the Kindlewastes, approached from an activated nearby Ancient Spire.
Before you go
- Access to the Kindlewastes and an activated regional Ancient Spire.
- Combat equipment for settlement enemies.
- Inventory room and a safe route back to base.
Farming steps
- Open your map and choose a Kindlewastes settlement or ruin you have not fully searched.
- Glide from a nearby fast-travel point toward the site, adjusting for terrain and landing safety.
- Clear immediate hostiles that could interfere with searching.
- Check accessible rooms, buildings, and rooftops for gold or ornate chests.
- Collect useful loot and note which structures you have already searched.
- When the site is exhausted, travel to another distinct ruin or return to base to sort equipment.
- Treat chest rewards as randomized; do not plan around a guaranteed weapon or material.
- Search during broader regional exploration so travel also reveals landmarks and routes.
Repeat, collect and use
Repeat across distinct ruins as you discover them. Individual chests are exploration rewards, not a guaranteed renewable farm at one spot.
Common mistakes
- Expecting a specific item from a chest: use the route for general loot and exploration.
- Gliding directly into a hostile landing: scout your approach and be ready to fight.
- Searching only rooftops or only ground floors: check all accessible parts of a structure.
When to stop or switch
Stop when the selected settlement is thoroughly searched or your inventory is full; return to base or move to a different ruin.
