Element Farming - Extinction

[JaredNomac]

Is element dust really the only way to get element? Seems awfully grindy even on extremely high harvesting multiplier settings.

Element veins (lol) have dust/shards/element
Orbital Supply Drops - I've seen yellow drop dust/shards, and red drop dust/shards/element (I've only seen dust in blue, haven't tried purple yet).

Also, for better dust farming, use a Doed on the lamps / tables / benches in the city.

element veins were an advertised feature but they were disabled on launch, then enabled yesterday, ended up destroying people's entire bases, then disabled again.

it's untelling when we'll finally be able to see element veins in the game properly. so yes, the only way to get element farmed up without fighting bosses/orbital supply drops is to farm lamps and benches.

No such thing as element veins...yet...

I wonder if they will just scrap the veins completely at this point

they cant, thats meant to be the main way to get element which this map is based around. thats like removing charge from aberration or sand for scorched earth, they cant.
