I feel I tackled the mistlands wrong.

I had fully enclosed bases in the meadows and black forest.

I've built bridges throughout the swamps I've visited.

A small farm in the plains to gather barley, lox meat, and black metal.

The mistlands I didn't do as much. Tossed down a farm and a portal near a dvergr outpost and then hunted down black cores.

I didn't settle it like I did the other biomes.

I'm looking forward to running through the game again though with all that I have learned.

Plan is to rush iron. I'm hoping to find a plains biome at the edge of mistlands with a nearby mountain to call home in my next playthrough.
