In Conan Exiles players can gather resources from their surroundings, using tools or even their bare hands! These resources are needed for crafting everything from buildings to weapons.
Locating Resources
Some resources, such as Wood and Stone are easy to find - just hit a tree or large boulder respectively with a harvesting tool.
Other resources can be significantly harder to locate, such as Silverstone, Obsidian, and Star Metal Ore.

Resource Gathering
Resources are gathered by striking an object in the world with an appropriate tool. The quantity of resource gathered by each strike is equal to the Harvesting Power of the tool, with a 50% chance of gaining an additional resource. This is multiplied by the Harvest Amount Multiplier
server setting for increased resource gathering.
Formula for gathering quantity = ( Harvesting Power + [50% chance of +1] ) x Harvest Amount Multiplier
For example, a Steel Pick has a harvesting power of 5. When used to strike a large boulder, it will harvest 5 or 6 stone on each strike (5 stone with a 50% chance of an additional stone). If the server was configured with Harvest Amount Multiplier
set at x3, then each strike would gather 15 or 18 stone.
Tool Categories - use the correct tool
- Pick - generally boulders and ore, also trees for bark.
- Hatchet - trees for wood, bodies for meat (if you don't have a cleaver).
- Cleaver - meat from bodies, some hide, heads.
- Sickle - fiber, plants, berries, gossamer
- Skinning Knife - hide from bodies, some meat.
