Scavenging
Contents
Description
Scavenging is the resource gathering support skill for many other crafts, as many varied components can be found whilst scavenging. Leathercraft, Bonecraft, Tailoring, Toolcraft, Wainwright, Weaponcraft and Architecture all use many different scavenged items.
The Primary Attribute and Secondary Attribute for Scavenging are Charm and Perception.
Usage
There are two ways to scavenge for items in Xsyon. You can right click on the scavenging action on you Hotbar or Actions Panel anywhere in the world and your character will scavenge for items. You chracter will either find an item or be informed that 'You cannot find anything useful here'. If you are on a junk pile the ratio of finds to fails will be much higher. High scavenging skill increases the ratio of finds and improves the quality of the items you find. It also increases the chance of finding very rare items.
Another way to scavenge for items is to gather bundles and sort them. To gather bundles you must open your Resources Panel when standing on a junk pile and right click the resource you want to gather. There are four types of resource available on a junk pile, Scrap Cloth, Scrap Leather, Scrap Metal and Scrap Plastic.
Once you have gathered some bundles you may either stack them for later use, store them in a Cart, Tent or Canopy, or right click on them to sort them into components.
Scavenging skill determines the quality of items you sort from bundles.
- Rarity of items
- Rare items can be found with the following factors increasing the chance. Skill, Stats, distance of junk pile from a tribe and danger level of the zone.
Bundles
Junk piles will eventually deplete when you gather bundles (using the Resources Panel), so for long term it is recommended to use the scavenge ability from the Actions Panel instead of using the Resources Panel.
