| Metal |
Ankylosaurus + Argentavis |
The Volcano & Frozen Tooth (The Island) |
Carry the Anky with an Argy. Fly to the Volcano rim, drop the Anky, harvest golden rocks, and fly back. The Argy reduces metal weight by 50%. |
| Obsidian |
Ankylosaurus or Magmasaur |
Volcano Crater |
Found primarily as smooth black rocks inside and around the top of the Volcano. Essential for Polymer crafting. |
| Organic Polymer |
Pelagornis or Wooden Club |
Northwest Snow Biome / Aberration Plants |
Kill Kairuku (Penguins) on the ice floes. Use a Wooden Club on their corpses to yield massive amounts of Organic Polymer, which substitutes standard Polymer. On Aberration, harvest the white bulb plants with a Bear. |
| Crystal |
Ankylosaurus |
Mountain Peaks & Caves |
Almost all high mountains have crystal nodes near the summit. The Frozen Tooth is the safest spot on The Island. |
| Black Pearls |
Tusoteuthis or Anglerfish |
Deep Ocean / Extinction OSDs |
Kill Eurypterids (Sea Scorpions) on the ocean floor or hunt Alpha Mosasaurus and Tusoteuthis. On Extinction, corrupted nodules drop them occasionally. |
| Cementing Paste |
Beelzebufo (Frog) |
Swamp Cave (The Island) |
Take a high-level Beelzebufo into the Swamp Cave. Using its secondary attack to kill Meganeuras (bugs) will instantly convert their corpses into massive amounts of Cementing Paste. |
| Silica Pearls |
Anglerfish |
Snow Biome Ocean Floor |
The Anglerfish harvests Silica Pearls with its bite attack without dismounting. Swim around the icy shores in the Northwest; the pearls look like glowing clams. |
| Oil |
Dung Beetle / Basilosaurus |
Snow Biome Surface / Tame Inventory |
Tame a Dung Beetle and put feces in its inventory; it converts it to Fertilizer and Oil. Alternatively, tame a Basilosaurus, which passively generates Oil in its inventory over time. |
| Element |
N/A (Bosses / Charge Nodes) |
Boss Arenas / Extinction Veins |
On The Island, you must kill Bosses. On Aberration, you can craft it at Charge Nodes using gems and batteries. On Extinction, defend Element Veins with Gigas. |
