Where to build your base

A good base spot has flat ground (easier to place structures), nearby ore deposits, wood and stone, a water source and a fast-travel point not far away.

Open the interactive map and enable the ore-deposit and fast-travel layers — you’ll instantly see where resources cluster near a convenient point.

You can have up to three bases — spread them across biomes: one for resources and ore, one for breeding, one closer to bosses and dungeons.
