Theory: Limestone blocks are found in wavy lines, similar to many ore veins.  There is no set pattern, but based on the tendencies of the curves, you can guess the approximate location of the next block.  I've found 2 such veins already, the first one I found is the one in green - and later, another (cyan) that runs almost straight north/south with only a 1 coordinate shift to the east every couple of blocks.  A 20x20 square sampling of blocks wouldn't show any tendencies as there isn't enough length to notice them.
+
Updated Theory: Limestone blocks are found in straight lines running vertical, horizontal, or diagonal, and are always found in identical pairs separated by a few coordinates vertically or horizontally.  Blocks are quite dense so it can be difficult at times to distinguish blocks within the same line. - Ralomein

UPDATE: I found another vein (Magenta) that duplicated the Cyan vein exactly, but shifted 4 coordinates east.  The only exception to this duplication is a missing block in the Cyan vein on the north end.  I searched a little for a duplicate pair to the green vein, but haven't found one yet.  Also, a perfect horizontal vein was found, represented in yellow.  Blocks shared by more than 1 vein are show in black.  Current Tally: 54 blocks found using 95 rods without food.

Theory Update:  I believe that all "veins" of blocks have a duplicate partner near it, a few coordinates away.  I have found them for all of mine.

Revision as of 11:23, 2 March 2009

Supplies Needed

  • Glass Rods (200-400 is a good starting number)
  • Lead Mallet
  • Cooked Food (Focus/Perception, Endurance)
  • Linen and Copper Wire (for construction site)

Find a Location

  • Find an area with all sand.
  • Avoid hills and mountains.
  • Sink your boreholes (if you can see the grid, you want these to be in the center of each coord) Start with a 20x20.

Finding Blocks

  • Eat perception/focus food (stack herbs as well, if possible)

Blocks List

  • List of blocks to find a pattern.

Ralomein's Block Chart

Updated Theory: Limestone blocks are found in straight lines running vertical, horizontal, or diagonal, and are always found in identical pairs separated by a few coordinates vertically or horizontally. Blocks are quite dense so it can be difficult at times to distinguish blocks within the same line. - Ralomein
