WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Where to farm
Base Camp, through Nata the Village Intermediary and available settlement gathering services.
Settlement residents can be tasked with gathering crafting materials as you play. Instead of visiting every provider to retrieve each batch, use Nata at Base Camp as the central collection point. This is a passive support activity rather than a route with a known rate: inspect available service options, continue normal hunts, and return to see what is ready. The in-game display shows which materials and collection choices are currently available. Use the collected supplies for the recipe or stock shortage you identified before assigning a task. No particular quantity or timer should be assumed outside the displayed service information.

Farming tips
Use Nata as a central check-in instead of visiting each provider to retrieve materials.
Verify the current material list in the service menu; options depend on progression.
Repeat, collect and use
Repeat the assign, play, and collect cycle when the service offers more supplies. No fixed rate or timer is established; use the interface’s availability display.
Common mistakes
Expecting a particular item or quantity without checking the service menu; confirm current output.
Forgetting to collect supplies through Nata; check when returning to Base Camp.
Assigning an unrelated material; prioritize the recipe currently blocked.
When to stop or switch
Stop collecting when crafting stock is sufficient or the needed material is no longer offered. Resume when another recipe creates a shortage.
