Things like raspberries. I've plucked every meadow for a country mile, but they are in tons of recipes. Honey is another. I'm something like 130 hours in and have only found two queens. Thistles are another. Tired of fighting trolls to get a couple of thistles. And of course, Iron. But I loathe the swamp biome, so it's even worse. I simply don't want to be bothered so I debugmoded my way through to the wishbone. But the mountains mean frost resist mead- which means more thistles, honey and time watching the fermenter gurgle. All for 50 minutes of resistance. Copper lodes are clear in one pass, so no point even building a path. Feathers are in constant short supply. I've only barely started in the mountains, so we'll see what's short next.
OK here we go
1. Mark every raspberry bush you come across, typically there will be more than 50 of them in a single enclosed meadows space. Mark mushrooms and thistle etc. also. They respawn every 240 minutes ingame, or 8 days without sleep, about 12 days with sleep. Prescription: equip Eikthyr, stamina potions, and tasty mead, and on every 12th day get rested status and then sprint as far as you possibly can between all your marked locations while eating stamina-dense food, grabbing all the forage. When you run out of stamina, hit the stamina potion and tasty mead and begin sprinting again as soon as your bar is full. This should provision you for all that stuff for 12 days no problem.
2. Iron is a legit nightmare, but my current workaround is to try to find 2 crypts and then build a tree-house base between them, then plop down the following stuff:

You can also just transfer the iron through another world of course.
3. Build a bunch of fermenters to pipeline your potion making - you gotta batch them. Realistically though, you don't absolutely need potions for any part of the game except the very start of the mountains, just dodge leeches, blobs and oozers, and then make the wolf chestpiece or cape ASAP.
4. Feathers can be obtained by knocking down a ton of tall beech trees, which is pretty easy once you have the ability to plant them densely and have the Elder power. You can also just go outside in a field while it's raining (seems like always eh?) and shoot birds.
The game is totally full of padding but there are ways to adapt.
Damn, its not much, but have an Award mate.
More so i can keep track of your post than anything lmao.
