Harvesting Resources from Abandoned Buildings

What to Collect

Abandoned structures contain valuable resources scattered throughout their interiors. Look for building materials like wood, stone variants, and metal blocks that can be reclaimed. Decorative blocks and furniture pieces are also harvestable and useful for building projects.

Efficient Harvesting Strategy

Bring a pickaxe for stone and metal components, and an axe for wooden structures. Many buildings feature multiple rooms and floors—systematically work through each level to maximize collection. Pay special attention to collapsed sections where materials pile up.

Structural Considerations

Be cautious when removing blocks from load-bearing walls, as this may cause additional collapse. Remove decorative elements and loose debris first. Some structures contain trapped items or unstable sections—approach methodically and watch for falling blocks.

Consider the aesthetic value of structures before harvesting everything. Many players prefer leaving some buildings intact as landmarks or bases for renovation projects.
