ARK Fjordur is the latest official DLC map of ARK: Survival Evolved. It is a sci-fi survival sandbox video game based on a pre-historic plot. The game takes players into a Norse mythical fantasyland filled with beautiful scenery and dangerous creatures. The ARK Fjordur map comprises deep caves, lush forests, frosty peaks, ancient ruins, medieval castles, Viking villages, and shipwrecks.
ARK Fjordur is also the first ARK DLC to introduce four completely new creatures, eight mini-bosses, and a new final boss, Fenrisulfr. There are some basic tasks that survivors will need to carry out to 'Survive The ARK'. These tasks include building bases, taming creatures, fulfilling basic needs (thirst, hunger), fighting dangerous creatures, collecting resources, crafting weapons and tools, and coping with extreme weather and natural calamities.
ARK Fjordur resource map: Locations of all resources in the game
While collecting resources in ARK Fjordur, players should keep a few things in mind. First of all, not every location has a sufficient amount of resources, so survivors have to choose the proper locations for efficient farming. Also, not every location is safe to discover, especially for players at low levels.
Essential resources in this game are metal, silica pearl, black pearl, oil, obsidian, mushrooms, crystal, flowers, sulfur, cementing paste, polymer, and element shards. To help out the survivors, here are the best locations for all the resources in ARK: Fjordur.
1) Metal
Metal is one of the most important resources in the game. It is required to craft various weapons and tools.
The first location is 28.5, 77.0. This location is near a plateau, where players can see lots of smaller metal nodes. The second location is 14.5, 95.0. This location is on the edge of the map, in the snowy redwoods area. Here, players can find richer metal nodes.
2) Organic polymer
Organic polymers are to be harvested from creatures like penguins and mantis. A lot of penguins can be found at the cost of Vardiland in 53.0, 31.2. Mantis can be found on the volcanic island of Balheimr at 93.0, and 78.8. They usually roam around in a pack of three to four, and players can easily kill them with a gun.
3) Oil
Most of the oil nodes in ARK Fjordur can be found underwater. The first location is under the sea at 46.7 44.1. A lot of oil nodes spawn in this area. Another location is below the icebergs at 54.5, and 42.1.
4) Silica pearls
Players can find a lot of silica pearls by harvesting sea shells at 46.7 44.1. This is the same location where oil notes can be found. Another great location for silica pearls is at 11.8, and 14.8 in a snowy area.
5) Black pearls
Black pearls are pretty rare on the ARK Fjordur map. There is a great spot at 60.1, and 52.4, where players have to dive really deep under the sea to get a lot of black pearls. This is probably the best location that spawns black pearls on the map.
6) Cementing paste
There are many ways to get cementing paste in ARK Fjordur. It can be crafted using mortar and pestle or chemistry bench. But the best way to get cementing paste is by harvesting beaver dams. However, beaver dams can rarely be found on the ARK Fjordur map.
At 48.4, 75.4 there is a big waterfall and a giant lake. A giant beaver dam spawns right in the middle of the lake, and players can find several small ones in the surrounding area. Another beaver dam location is 93.6, 31.5 near another waterfall. This one is also a giant beaver dam, from which a lot of cementing paste can be harvested.
7) Obsidian
The best place to find obsidian is the volcanic island of Balheimr. Players can find obsidian scattered all around the island. 94.5, and 95.7 an especially good spot to find obsidians in Balheimer.
8) Rare Flowers, Silk, and Mushrooms
At 46.0, 53.0, there are some swamp bushes that look like grass with small flowers. Players have to take a Therizinosaurus there, and by using Therizino's right-click delicate attack, they can harvest a lot of rare flowers, mushrooms, and silk.
Players can also head to the swamp area of Vardiland, at 44.0, 08.9. Several logs and trees are scattered around there, and a lot of rare mushrooms can be harvested from those trees using a pickaxe.
9) Crystal
Crystals are available throughout the entire ARK Fjordur map. But there are a few locations where they spawn densely. The Yellow Crystal Cave at 29.3, 39.2 is one of the best locations for crystals. Players can also set their base inside that cave.
10) Plant X/Y seeds
The swamp bushes at 46.0, and 53.0 are also one of the best resources for Plant Y seeds. Using the same Therizino harvesting method, players can collect a lot of Plant Y seeds from there.
For Plant X seeds, players have to head to the same swamp area of Vardiland where rare mushrooms are found. At 50.7, and 08.3 players will see Plant X spawns.
11) Elemental shards
The ARK Fjordur map only has elemental shards. The Wyvern trench at 95.7, and 79.6 is a great location for elemental shards. Players will have to go down the Wyvern trench to find a cave opening. The Magmasaur nest is inside the cave at 90.6, 93.6. A lot of elemental rocks and obsidian spawn around the nest.
12) Sulfur
There is an entire area in Balheimr where sulfur rocks can be found in abundance. The area is located at 72.0, 92.6. However, players should remain cautious as they will immediately start losing their health due to toxic gasses in the area.
A few specific kinds of bronze stones can be found here. By mining them with a pickaxe, players can get a lot of sulfur.
13) Red, blue, yellow, and green gems
Players have to head to the cave at 56.6, and 84.56. Upon entering the cave, they will immediately see a bunch of blue gems spawning in a corner. Inside the same cave, at 48.4, and 82.6, players can find a lot of red gems.
In 41.1, and 31.8, players have to dive underwater to find an opening for an Aberration cave. Inside the cave, they can find green gems in abundance.
