Dayton Wetlands Shoreline

One of the best base locations in the early game would be near the shorelines in the Dayton Wetlands area, around the 6756, -5928 coordinates.

The shores are lined with early-game resources like Copper and trees for Wood, and the nearby sea means that players can harvest salt water to start up a Salt EXP Farm.

Broken Delta Beach

Similarly to the Dayton Wetlands shoreline, the beaches in the Broken Delta, near 6680, -6302, are also an excellent place to set up camp.

There's still access to salt water, but now Tin ores start to appear on the sands alongside other resources.

Iron River Roadside

This area in the Iron River region close to the 5788, -3602 coordinates grants access to Iron Ore, trees, flowers, and animals, and a nearby Settlement that you can farm for other resources.

It's also close to a road, meaning that there is a chance for players to encounter the Wanderer for even more resources.

Chalk Peak Roadside

Around the 3319, -4740 coordinates, this area in Chalk Peak is a great place to settle in as it provides fishing access, plenty of animal spawns, and lots of ore nodes to mine.

There are also several Settlements in nearby areas, making for easier access to farming spots for mid to late game resources.

Red Sands Mountain Base

This area in the Red Sands region, is abundant in ores for mining, as well as close to a river for water. If you constantly need ores in your playthrough, consider relocating here.
