Rn the Mistlands doesn't give you anything, there are ancient roots which can't be chopped down yet, presumably will be another wood type for better stuff. Mistlands is honestly fun to creep around in, very spooky atmosphere and a great place to setup an outpost, the darkness makes it much harder for the player to be spotted by any patrols wondering in from other Biomes.

mistlands is very good if you are just getting into plains and looking for a safe place to set up a border base. zero enemies in mistlands currently, despite the fact that it will probably someday be tougher than plains.
