Recommended Base Location For Ore
Set Up Base Until You Can Unlock Ore Mining Site
The Ore Mining Site can be unlocked at the Player Lvl 15, and Ore Mining Site II at Lvl 31 which is quite a high level to achieve. Until you get to this level, here are some recommended locations where you can set up your base.
Plains SouthWest Of Small Settlement
| Map Location | Surrounding Enviroment |
|---|---|
 | [Resources] Ore ×8/Wood [Temp] Normal [Enemy Lvl] Lvl 1~15 [Coordinates] 8,-527 |
The first recommended location for farming Ores, is southwest of "Small Settlement". There are 8 Ore Deposits, so it is the perfect place to mine Ore. The surrounding enemies are also weak so this is recommended for the 2nd base in Early game.
High Cliff West Of Fort Ruins
| Map Location | Surrounding Environment |
|---|---|
 | [Resources] Ore ×8/Wood [Temp] Normal [Enemy Lvl] Lvl 1~15 [Coordinates] 155,-393 |
The second location recommended for your Ore Base, is on the cliff west of "Fort Ruins". There are less enemies that will attack you so if you are having trouble with enemies then this place is recommended. Like the Small Settlement, this is another great location for your 2nd base.
Sealed Realm of the Thunder Dragon
| Map Location | Surrounding Environment |
|---|---|
 | [Resources] Ores ×9/Wood [Temp] Normal [Enemy Lvl] Lvl 10~20 [Coordinates] -255,-367 |
The 3rd location recommended as an Ore base is on the cliff, west of "Sealed Realm of the Thunder Dragon". This location has the important aspects for a base, having wide range plains and Relaxaurus spawns, which is important for breeding.The enemy's level is a little high, so if you are planning to make a base here, it is recommended to be prepared with armor and strong Pals.
How To Create An Automated Ore Base
- Build a Palbox and Set up a Base
- Set up a Bed and Hot Spring
- Set up a Berry Plantation
- Set up a Feed Box
- Set up a Chest for Gathering
- Set up a Pickaxe and Helmet
- Assign Pals
| Structure | Unlock & Required Materials |
|---|---|
| Palbox | Unlock Lvl 2 Paldium Fragment ×1 Wood ×8 Stone ×3 |
First to create a Base, set up a Palbox. With the Palbox in the center, the surrounding area will become the base so place the Palbox in the very center.
| Structure | Unlock & Required Materials |
|---|---|
| Fluffy Pal Bed | Unlock Lvl 24 Cloth ×10 Wood ×30 Nails ×5 Fiber ×10 |
| Hot Spring | Unlock Lvl 9 Wood ×30 Stone ×15 Paldium Fragment ×10 Pal Fluids ×10 |
| High Quality Hot Spring | Unlock Lvl 31 Stone ×100 Wood ×100 Paldium Fragment ×30 Cement ×20 |
You will need beds and hot springs for the Pals to rest. Place a bed for each Pal there is at the base, they will all need their own bed.
| Structure | Unlock & Required Materials |
|---|---|
| Berry Plantation | Unlock Lvl 5 Berry Seeds ×3 Wood ×20 Stone ×20 |
To make everything automatic, you will also need to make food for the working Pals at the base. To create food, place 2 to 3 Berry Plantations at the base.
| Structure | Unlock & Required Materials |
|---|---|
| Feed Box | Unlock Lvl 4 Wood ×20 |
By placing Feed Boxes, Pals will automatically eat food from there. Once your automatic base is created, the Pals will place the berries made at the plantation inside the Feed Boxes so placing 1 near the center of the base is recommended.
| Structure | Unlock & Required Materials |
|---|---|
| Wooden Chest | Unlock Lvl 2 Wood ×15 Stone ×5 |
The chests, about 2-3, where the Ore will be stored should be placed near the Ores. If there is only 1 chest, then the Pals have to move around a lot, so setting up more than one is recommended. But if there are too many, collecting them from the chests will take more time so be careful.
| Structures | Unlock & Required Materials |
|---|---|
| Pickaxe and Helmet | Unlock Lvl 30 Wood ×50 Stone ×50 Ingot ×50 |
By setting up the Pickaxe and Helmet, the working speed of the Pals at the mine will increase.They don't need multiple, so setting up just 1 is OK. Place it on the side so it doesn't get in the way.
| Structure | Unlock & Required Materials |
|---|---|
| Flower Bed | Unlock Lvl 24 Wood ×50 Stone ×100 Cement ×40 Beautiful Flower ×20 |
| Water Fountain | Unlock Lvl 23 Ingot ×100 Stone ×200 Pal Fluids ×20 |
| Silo | Unlock Lvl 25 Wood ×300 Stone ×100 Fiber ×100 |
The Flower Bed, Fountain, and Silo increases the work speed on the base. If you have extra space and materials, then set these up as well.
Once your base is all set, assign your Pals. For the Berry Plantation you will need 1 each for "Planting", "Watering", and "Gathering". 2 Pals for "Transporting" ores and berries. For the rest you can assign them to "Mining" to mine Ore.
