Range Basics
Gathering Gold & Supplies
Gather at Gold Mines and Hunting Grounds, then improve each activity at the Outfitter.
Gathering runs
Visit a Gold Mine to gather Gold or Hunting Grounds to gather Supplies. Each particular gathering location may be used by your player once during each world cycle.
Using one Gold Mine or Hunting Grounds does not use every other gathering location. Gathered resources go to your On Hand balance. For example, after gathering at one Gold Mine, you can still gather at a different Gold Mine during the same cycle; returning to the first mine requires the next cycle.
Improving your yield
Prospecting Gear improves Gold gathering, while the Supply Wagon improves Supplies gathering. Both progress from level 1 through level 5.
The table shows the base range before Resource Banner or Outlaw Banner effects and before permanent discovery bonuses.
Each Prospector's Journal found in an Abandoned Mine permanently adds 5 to both the minimum and maximum of your ordinary Gold Mine gathering range. Each Frontier Field Guide found in a Thick Forest permanently adds 5 to both the minimum and maximum of your ordinary Hunting Grounds gathering range.
