Rare Resource Node
This article is timeless and should be accurate for any version of the game.
The Rare Resource Node is a harvestable node that randomly spawns across the map, primarily near roads or region borders. Unlike other resource nodes like Coal, Components, Salvage, and Sulfur, these do not spawn in a Resource Field in large amounts, and instead spawn individually.
Harvesting Nodes
They can be harvested using a Hammer or Sledgehammer, yielding Wreckage. One node gives a total of 5 Wreckage, unless the node is "shiny" (up to 13). The Wreckages then need to be sorted in a Refinery to provide either Basic Materials, or Refined Materials in varying amount.
They are useful in the early-game, as they provide resources that are typically in high demand, such as Refined Materials.
