Placement Strategy

The Merchant: Natural Resources is the fallback stock for any refining run that has exhausted the local mining and logging pool. Copper Ore, Foothills Iron Ore, Clay, Wood, Hardwood, and Stone are the typical categories, with advanced unlocks tied to island threat clears. Piastre-per-unit rates are high compared to farming the raw materials yourself, so this merchant is best treated as a top-up source rather than a primary supply line.

Tips

• Use this merchant when a single refining recipe is bottlenecked by one missing ingredient, not for whole-stack purchases; the Piastre drain is significant.

• Advanced-tier materials unlock as island threats are cleared, which means the natural-resources stock improves across a playthrough without extra investment.

• Stone and Clay are cheap enough here to buy in x10 bulk if you are starting a large stone structure build.

• Copper Ore from this merchant feeds the Smelting Furnace directly; Piastre-to-ingot math favors buying ore and refining in-house over buying pre-refined ingots.

Current Stats and Drops

These are the exact Merchant: Natural Resources prices observed in the current live build. Quantities scale x1, x2, x5, and x10 at a flat Piastre-per-unit rate, so bulk purchases are time savings rather than cost savings.

Buy Prices

Every line item below is confirmed stock, though the advanced goods only populate once the matching threat camps have been cleared. Expect a partial table on a fresh island until the clear list progresses.
