How to find amber
As we have already noted, you cannot get this resource at the beginning of the game.
Amber is protected by a veil, which will kill a weak character. To start mining, you need to fortify the Altar of Flame to 3rd level. In this way you expand the area of accessible buildings and can dispel the Veil.
Where do you find amber?
Once the problem with the altar is resolved, go to the area called “Rampant Forest” and find the Ancient Spire.
Activate a fast travel point on top to get to the area faster in the future. To the east of the spire is a valley in the shroud with many amber veins. They are difficult to see in the fog, but the veins resemble yellowish clay.
They are usually located near steep walls or small stone columns in the center of the gorge. For successful mining you need a pickaxe. The better the tool, the faster the material is obtained. One deposit contains about 30-40 units of amber.
Which recipes require amber?
Once you have enough amber, it’s time to use it. First, the resource is needed to strengthen the Altar of the Flame. This destroys the Veil and expands the accessible area. To upgrade the Altar to level four you need 15 units of amber.
If you’re playing a mage, keep an eye out for the improved version of the Fireball spell, which requires 5 units of amber to unlock. After reaching level 17, you need to complete the Alchemist quest, after which by collecting 50 units of amber you can unlock the “Eternal Fireball” – the spell will become endless.
By upgrading or purchasing equipment you unlock the Alchemist’s Apprentice outfit. The upgraded version for 14 units of amber gives you mage armor, which improves spells and increases your mana reserve. In the future, all the magician’s equipment will need amber in one way or another, so it is better to buy it with a reserve.
The healer has his own armor. It improves healing abilities and costs 15 amber.
Finally, Guardian armor is great for warriors. You can save it by spending 12 units of amber.
In the future, amber will also be actively used. It will also be necessary for the construction of various furniture and interior items.
