Region Details
All RegionsThe starting area — flat terrain with minimal danger. Resources are primarily Wood, Stone, and Copper Ore. Completing the zone's main objectives unlocks the Glider and the Pendant. Large populations of Lamball and Pengullet make this the best spot to stack early XP from catching.
Dense bamboo groves and ancient trees with concentrated Iron Ore and Mushroom nodes throughout. The Forest Guardian field boss patrols this zone. Ancient ruins inside the area contain Ancient Tech Points — a critical mid-game resource for advancing the tech tree.
A high-temperature lava zone with Coal, Sulfur, and Obsidian as its unique resources — none of which can be sourced elsewhere. The environment deals continuous heat damage, so Heat Resistance armor is required before pushing in. Tower Boss 4, Marcus & Faleris, holds this region.
Endless dunes with buried ancient civilization structures beneath them. Gold Ore and Ancient Parts are exclusive to this zone. The labyrinthine ruins make navigation confusing — mark fast travel anchors as you go. Tower Boss 3, Axel & Orserk, is stationed at the desert core.
Permafrost terrain battered by constant blizzards. Titanium Ore and Quartz are exclusive to this region. Frostchant Dragon spawns only inside Frost Hollow. The final Tower Boss, Victor & Shadowbeak, is stationed here, making this the highest-difficulty zone in the game.
A scattered chain of remote islands surrounding the main landmasses, accessible only by flying mount or boat. Azurex patrols these waters, and some unmarked islands hold rare chests and undocumented hidden locations.
