Atlas and character progression
Azurite for mine upgrades
Azurite purchases improve mine equipment and help make deeper or wider Delve exploration possible.
WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Azurite for mine upgrades
Azurite Mine nodes and Azurite encounters along the Delve chart.
Before you go
- Meet Niko and gather Sulphite from maps.
- Unlock the Azurite Mine interface.
- Choose a mine depth your character can safely complete.
Farming steps
- Collect Sulphite from Niko encounters while mapping.
- Open the mine chart and choose a cleared route leading toward an Azurite node.
- Follow the crawler through the route and defeat its encounter.
- Collect Azurite from the completed node.
- Return to Niko's mine interface and inspect available upgrades.
- Spend Azurite on the crawler or exploration capacity relevant to your next route.
- Resume Delve and use the improved capacity to reach further nodes.
- Prioritize upgrades that solve your current constraint, such as safer exploration or additional capacity.
- Route toward a target biome or reward instead of detouring to every nearby node.
Repeat, collect and use
Azurite nodes can be farmed on new Delve routes; upgrades are cumulative progression purchases rather than a repeatable currency sink in every session.
Common mistakes
- Entering a route without enough Sulphite; check the cost and reserve before starting.
- Spending Azurite without considering your mine bottleneck; compare upgrades first.
- Following every branch and exhausting supplies; choose a target route.
When to stop or switch
Pause Azurite farming when the upgrades needed for your next depth or side exploration are purchased, then return when another mine constraint appears.
