Revision as of 12:56, 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. Within the line, blocks are found every 7 horizontal or vertical coordinates. Blocks are quite dense so it can be difficult at first to determine which blocks are part of the same line. Where two lines of blocks intersect, they can share a block. - Ralomein
Using those rules, essentially turns block finding into a puzzle - kudos to Teppy. I highly recommend you keep track of locations you have bored and hit rock, as that data can be used to eliminate other locations that will not have a block for the line you are working on -- which in the end saves you on glass rods. The chart below is simply an OpenOffice spreadsheet with column width changed to make square cells, and I change the background color of the cell to indicate a hit or miss.
On the chart - color indicates a block found, grey are spots I bored but found no block. Black are blocks shared by more than 1 line, and red are blocks that I have not yet found the line for.
