Lack of Silver?

Hey Dear Boundless Community! im Level 25 so far, Have already Decent tools and went already to 2 Tier 3 Planets, So far i found 4 Blocks of Silver in over 3 hours of digging… its doesnt matter if im digging near the ´´bedrock`` or if i dig more on top, i really cant find Decent amounts of Silver, Do i may have to go on Tier 4 Planets or does someone know an easy way?

You could always make an atlas to locate silver-rich spots

I Already Crafted an Atlas on the old Universe, But i didnt Understood it, Could you explain how it works? ^^

You make an atlas, then activate it on the planet you want to map then you can put any resource you want to track. Simply drag a silver ore or any other resource onto the atlas in the inventory. You should see a heatmap of the resource. Keep in mind, the atlas will only show discovered locations.

Oh WOW! that Opens a tons of new Opportunitys! Thanks a lot for that Quick help! :slight_smile:

No problem! The atlas doesn’t show which altitude the resource is at so that’s something you’ll have to experiment with yourself.

Yeah, But still better to Dig Tunnels over Tunnels :smiley:

In the wrong spot* ^^

Definitely. You may risk digging in spots where there is 0 silver what so ever

Yeah Exactly, Thats what i did the past 3 Hours^^ but hey, I have over 200k Heat in coal and more Iron that i can ever Use :smiley:

Could you tell me if Delta Cancret or Circarpous is Better for finding Silver?

Or doesnt it Really matter since Both planets are Tier 3?

I got no idea but I would guess theres not gonna be a huge difference since they are both the same tier

I was in the same position. I’ve been into tier 2 and tier 3 of AUS servers but literally found none for about 5 hours of mining time.

Eventually, I had to warp to “Lamblis - Rugged Metal World” and pay the upfront cost of 1500c. Result is better as I have 37 silver ores for around 1.5 hours of mining.

As from Omni’s website, it was tagged as “Silver” though I’m a little confused since I believe silver ores aren’t supposed to be tied to planets (like gems)? but to tiers?

Well i crafted the Atlas and seached silver with it, On circarpous im getting quiet a lot, You just need the right Altitude, Its about 20-30 where im finding a lot of silver.

I’ve been to up to bedrocks before also but found none and surface mining caves. I guess I’m just that unlucky :stuck_out_tongue:

Just press F1 and open the Debug Information and Dig around Altitude 25, I did a Tunnel, 50 Blocks Long starting from altitude 50 till bedrock, And the best Result was between Altitude 20 and 30^^

There are precious metal worlds now, where precious metals are :stuck_out_tongue:
it is pretty plentiful there and will be even more plentiful on till.
BTW, shameless advertisement

What are the names of those Precious Metal Worlds? ^^

Lamblis and Till
