Food and crafting supplies
Scrap
Scrap is used directly in many recipes and can be converted into Nails for raft construction.
WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Scrap
Underwater island reef walls, floating debris and barrels along the raft’s route.
Before you go
- Hook for underwater Scrap nodes and floating items.
- A raft that can anchor near an island.
- Crafting access for making Nails directly from Scrap.
Farming steps
- Anchor beside an island and enter the water with the Hook equipped.
- Follow the reef wall and harvest Scrap nodes with the Hook.
- Collect nearby reef materials during the same dive if doing so is safe.
- Surface before oxygen runs low and return to the raft with the collected Scrap.
- While sailing, use the Hook to collect reachable debris and barrels that pass the raft.
- Open collected barrels and store any Scrap alongside other useful supplies.
- At the crafting menu, use two Scrap to make three Nails when a construction recipe calls for them; keep some Scrap for direct recipe use.
- Check storage before crafting Nails so you do not use Scrap needed for another item.
- A reef visit combines Scrap collection with other underwater materials, reducing the need for separate stops.
Repeat, collect and use
Collect Scrap during later reef trips and while gathering floating debris; craft Nails only as your current building plan requires.
Common mistakes
- Putting Scrap in the Smelter to make Nails: craft Nails directly from Scrap.
- Converting every piece to Nails: many recipes consume Scrap itself, so reserve a supply.
- Ignoring oxygen while collecting reef Scrap: surface and recover before continuing the reef pass.
When to stop or switch
Stop crafting Nails when you have enough for the current build; keep gathering Scrap when a new recipe or construction project needs it.
