Opal, any good biomes?

General

Anyone mind sharing a good biome for farming opals from basic boulders? Been looking around for a while, Kada I has lots of opal according to the resource tab and there are some biomes that are bright blue on atlas (the gleam ones), but it’s not really farm friendly. Lots of big holes, and even after clearing all surface boulders the areas are blue. Digging down reveals big pockets that have one or two boulders in them, but that’s not really efficient either.

I’ve seen some that don’t even have any grass and lots of boulders, just can’t remember where.

I know that in Kol Huroo there are many

There are parts of Cephonex Merika where you’ll find flat areas of glacier and you’ll get opals from the clear boulders there, I think.

Merika was decent, even though I couldn’t find any glaciers :smiley: The flat(ish) ground with minimal grass is the best, you can get some pretty good streaks with those features.

Gellis has a lot of areas that look like there have been rivers there but are dried up, they all have rock at it’s base, full of those boulders!

Thanks! I’ve added that tip to my Where Resources Are page:

Here’s the coordinates for one of those glaciers on Ceph Merika: 2065N 851 E Altitude 128.

I found out you can stick a cobalt fragment in your atlas and it highlights them nicely :slight_smile:
