WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Outset Grasslands Starter Resource Route
Outset Grasslands around the starting homestead.
Before you go
- Access to the starter region.
- Sprout Cannon and Spike Saw for restoration and clearing tasks as needed.
- Resource Vacuum for loose drops, if unlocked.
- Storage space for the selected crop or material target.
Farming steps
- Choose one or two targets from the region’s native resources: Wheat, Polyberry, Caroot, Wood, Plant Fiber, Stone, or Aluminum.
- Travel from the homestead to the target patches and check for Noxious Slime.
- Clear slime with the suitable mech tool so the region’s native crops and resources become available.
- Harvest the matching crop or work the resource patch for your chosen target.
- Collect loose drops with the Resource Vacuum if available, and check the ground before leaving each patch.
- Return to the farm and sort seeds, crop goods, and materials into separate stock.
- Read the Resource Delivery Cannon request before loading goods that could also be needed for construction.
- Restoration is part of the gathering route: a slime-covered patch may not yet offer its native resources.
- Prioritize Aluminum and crop seeds when early progression needs them; carry only secondary materials if you have room.
Repeat, collect and use
Repeat the route for accessible patches as your stock is used. Clearing a region is a progression task; the collection trips can continue as targets remain useful.
Common mistakes
- Trying to harvest native resources before clearing slime: restore the patch first.
- Filling cargo with unrelated items: choose a target before leaving the homestead.
- Loading seed reserves into the cannon: keep planting stock aside.
When to stop or switch
Stop once the selected build, planting, or delivery target is satisfied; switch to a different region when its native crops or materials are the missing item.
