Please note that the New World Team has stopped covering the game as of Update 1.2. Information on certain pages may not be up-to-date.

Blightcrag is a Mining resource node that requires the Pickaxe to harvest. With the tool equipped, walk up to the resource node and press the E key to gather and add it to your inventory.

Blightcrag Locations

Blightcrag

Blightcrag is a rock formation with a whitish base and a dark, sharp tip. Green fumes surround the resource, and it exudes purplish smoke when you get close.

Blightcrag is usually found on mountainous, rocky terrain, around Light Light, Windsward, Everfall, and Monarch's Bluff.

First Light Blightcrag Locations

There are a couple Blightcrag nodes located close to the Settlement and Hatchburg Fishery. A few more are located to the northeast near Coffman's Redoubt and to the northwest near Clearwater Bend.

Windsward Blightcrag Locations

You will find some right outside the Settlement to the north. A few other nodes are located to the east near Hecker's Haven and to the west near Willette's Homestead.

Everfall Blightcrag Locations

There are Blightcrag nodes located very close to the Settlement in rocky areas to the north and to the west.

Monarch's Bluff Blightcrag Locations

You can find some Blightcrags in the Farside Township to the southeast of Monarch's Bluffs Settlement.

Brightwood Blightcrag Locations

You can find Blightcrags scattered across Brightwood. We recommend the area east of Brightrest Cemetery as the location contains no enemies. Beets Bog also contains Blightcrags although the surrounding area contains Level 34 enemies.

Weaver's Fen Blightcrag Locations

There are plenty of Blightcrags south of the region's settlement near Gracewater and Taryville. The locations also contain plenty of enemies so you may need to defeat them first before harvesting the resource nodes.

Cutlass Keys Blightcrag Locations

There are only a few Blightcrag nodes in Cutlass Keys and most of them will spawn in Pullpatch Cove and Stone Skull Fort. Enemies in these locations are levels 39+, with Stone Skull Fort being a Level 40 Elite Area. Make sure you are a high enough level or in a group when aiming to farm these nodes.

Restless Shore Blightcrag Locations

You can find Blightcrags in three locations in Restless Shore. The easiest area is on Rabbit Island, northeast of the region's settlement. The island only contains rabbits, although a powerful Harekeeper appears if you slay Stanley the Rabbit.

You can also mine Blightcrags inside Arclight Cavern, a landmark that contains Level 40 enemies.

Great Cleave Blightcrag Locations

All Blightcrag nodes in Great Cleave can be found in only two locations: Eeriedune Graveyard and Misty Borough. When farming, be wary of the level 46-48 Lost enemies, wolves, and ghosts that patrol the area.

Do note that this place is also sometimes used as an EXP pull area. Make sure to scope out the place if high level players are pulling enemy mobs en masse since this could get you mobbed while farming.

The table below shows the available resources that you can obtain from Blightcrag.
