Rose stone

[demontechie]

So it says in the description that the civil corps store is supposed to sell rose stones, but they don't. So I'm not sure if that just hasn't been fully implemented yet. It's also been several in-game weeks since the rose stone spots out in the desert have respawned for me. Anyone else experiencing this?

The desert rose stones respawn every day for me, but they aren't in the exact same place each time. There should be one or two under the rib cage with the scorpions(to the west of the iron mine). and one more a little to the south of that, just past some smaller bones.

You can also get it by recycling quartz.

This. I personally just put some quartz in the ore refiner as often as possible (and get quartz mostly from stones).

Alright, guess I'll just keep searching for them out there and hope I can actually get them from quartz.

OP; Have you tried going on a harvest spree in Desert area? I have had limited success getting more Cistanche to spawn by cutting the bushes and harvesting the bones (and generally chopping Large and regular Deadwood), Just getting stuff (anything) seemed to kickstart a respawn of general stuff of which rosestone and Cistanche were parts.

I figure if its like other games I played cherry picking resources eventually ends with the cherry picked resource becoming scarcer and scarcer as other things spawn in its place.

You can get rosestone from recycling quartz, but it's easier to get it from recycling iron. And recycling iron also produces quartz, which can then be refined for more rosestone.

I go harvesting in the desert almost every day and I've still only found rose stone out there once lol. When it comes to refining and recycling even though it says the chances are "high" to get rose stone I have really terrible luck it seems. Thank you guys for helping me out though :)
