Springstone is a node that is farmed using the Mining skill in New World, and gives off Water Motes and Freezing Lodestones.
A tall spire crackling with lightning, here's what you'll need and where the best areas are to find Springstone in Aeternum.
What do you need Springstone for in New World?
A special type of rock formation that gives off Water Reagents, the two primary drops will be Water Motes and Freezing Lodestones. Both are key Arcana ingredients.
Water Motes are used in a whole load of concoctions, including potions, coatings, and tinctures, and the cutting of Aquamarine gemstones. It is also a key resource in crafting the Elemental Heart, a mid-level reagent in ultimately creating Tuning Orbs and Voidbent Ingots. Given their elemental affinity, you'll also need them in the crafting of Ice Gauntlet weapons.
Freezing Lodestones, meanwhile, are also used in several tinctures, potions, and coatings.
In order to mine Springstone, you'll need a Mining Pickaxe. There's a level requirement of 50 to mine them, and you'll be able to track Springstone nodes from Mining Skill Lv. 75.
The best locations to farm Springstone in New World
These are the clusters we think are best for power-farming Springstone.
Restless Shore
This route takes you from northern Restless Shore deep into Mourningdale, and is for those who don't mind a trek when farming.
Start at the Shrine of Sisyphos and work your way north, with plenty of nodes between the Accursed Camp and Boarsholm. Then head north over the border towards Marsic, then Subra.
As you can see the route follows the river -- given it's a water-based resource, you'll find Springstone close. Keep following the river north to Mourning Bridge for more nodes.
From here you can either head southeast to the nearby Settlement, or keep north to Propus and even Cragview and Foulroot for more nodes.
Weaver's Fen
The in-and-out location if you just need a handful of nodes, there's a nice cluster around the Vega Bridge to the southwest of Weaver's Fen settlement.
Great Cleave
There are three clusters in the Great Cleave. The first is around the Cleave's Point Outpost, the second further south around the pool on the road to Eeriedune Graveyard, and the third to the east around the Gelida Pillars.
Brightwood
There's a good few nodes in Brightwood, but because they are spread out it's perhaps not the best power-farming spot.
You'll find a cluster around Brackwater Village to the west, and then several more around Brightwood Isle and the surrounding waterways in the southern central area.
