Black Metal Scrap

Before you go

• Plains-ready food, armor, weapons, and a shield.
• A Blast Furnace and coal for processing; build or reach one when progression allows.
• A safe physical return route and inventory capacity, unless an applicable portal exception is available.

Farming steps

1. Scout a Fuling camp from outside its immediate danger and note an escape route.
2. Choose an approach that lets you manage a smaller part of the camp at a time.
3. Defeat Fulings and collect black metal scrap from enemies and camp loot.
4. Search the cleared area for remaining threats and containers before moving on.
5. Carry scrap back by a physical route in early progression; standard wooden portals block raw scrap under normal settings.
6. Feed scrap and coal to a Blast Furnace to produce black metal bars. Smelting does not let bars pass through standard wooden portals.
7. Use the bars for the weapons and equipment on your progression plan; haul them physically unless Portal – Stone or world settings permit passage and the departure portal supports the items.

• Avoid unfamiliar night excursions; multiple Plains threats can make a camp fight harder to control.
• Mark cleared camps so later trips can focus on other locations when more scrap is needed.
• Plan for both scrap and bars: standard wooden portals block both under normal settings.
