11 Grain Haven
22  
33 Grain Haven is a zone in the Moonlit Forest accessed by riding the Waterwheel upward from Harvest Yard. It is one of the larger areas in the deeper forest, split into lower and upper sections connected by staircases. The zone is rich with high-tier ore deposits and plant resources, making it an important material farming location for players working through the Senior and Expert Explorer tiers.

77 After repairing the Waterwheel in Harvest Yard (which requires 5 Primorite, 5 Magnetite, 5 Gold, and 1 Waterwheel Bearing from Zephyria), ride it upward. The Waterwheel deposits you on a bridge that leads into the lower section of Grain Haven. Riding the Waterwheel downward instead leads to Darkwater Shore, a separate side area.

1212  
1313 SectionAccessContentsLower SectionImmediately accessible from the Waterwheel bridgeCampsite, resource nodes, Gravecrystal puzzle, initial treasure chestsUpper SectionReached via staircases from the lower sectionAdditional resource deposits, higher-elevation treasure chests, scenic overlooks
1414 The lower section is where players arrive first and where the campsite is located. The upper cliffs contain additional ore deposits and treasure chests that reward thorough exploration. Multiple staircases connect the two levels, so players can move between them freely once they reach the upper area.

2727 Gravecrystal Puzzle
2828  
2929 Grain Haven contains a Gravecrystal puzzle similar to those found in earlier Moonlit Forest zones. Players must locate and mine Gravecrystal rocks scattered around the area, collect the Gravestars they drop, and place them in the appropriate pedestals. Completing the puzzle unlocks access to a sealed treasure chest.

3131 The Gravecrystals in Grain Haven glow orange like those in earlier zones. Break them with your pickaxe and escort the freed Gravestars to the pedestals nearby. Some Gravecrystals may be on the upper level while the pedestal is on the lower level, so check both sections.

5454 Grain Haven is an excellent spot to farm Diamond and Flamecore. The ore nodes are spread across both levels, so check the upper cliffs as well as the lower ground.Repair the campsite Moonweaver before exploring. This zone is deep enough in the forest that losing your respawn point means a long backtrack.Collect Eldergrain whenever you see it. This plant resource is used in several cooking and crafting recipes and is most abundant here.Check every staircase and elevated platform in the upper section. Treasure chests #32 and #33 are easy to miss if you stick to the lower ground level.The Gravecrystal puzzle requires checking both levels. If you are short a Gravestar for the pedestal, look for orange-glowing rocks on the opposite level.Stock up on supplies before pushing forward to Homeward Trail. The zones ahead contain aggressive Runebird enemies and increasingly challenging navigation.
