Quite common patches of Chrysanthemum clumped together or in single occurrences, used for Red Tea crafting (need skill).Quite common patches of Cotton Plant clumped together or in single occurrences, used for Cloth Fragment crafting.Regular Trees of various types give wood and seeds.Tall Grass and its variety gives Plant Fibers.Small Stones laying in large quantities, hard to spot in the tall grass.More common are types of tents and desert outposts (open structures), as well as wooden structures.No rain present, even though in other biomes can occur at the same time.Hot temperatures often going pretty high, speeds up water usage.Gravel patches have very good visibility on sand ground.Ground made up mostly of Sand blocks, surface layer gives Sand and a little Clay Soil, where deeper levels give Sand and Small Stones.Bird Nests quite visible due to lack of plants and grass being smaller than in the Forest, but still not as common as elsewhere.Rare abandoned Cars in various stages of disrepair.Occasional various piles of trash, pretty visible due to lack of plants and grass being smaller than in the Forest.Quite common is Driftwood laying around, which give a bit of wood.Saguaros growing commonly all around, give Plant Fibers and Yucca Plants when destroyed.Aloe Vera plants growing in abundance, used for crafting Aloe Cream (recovers little health).Yucca Plants growing in abundance, edible with 10% poisoning (but gives also water), used for crafting Yucca Juice (no skill needed).Small Stones laying very rarely around.An explanation to this can be (yet to be confirmed) that gravel patches show the dominant ore that is underground, where Boulders show all in their proportions (which constitutes from giving more resources when mined).Ĭomparison of how gravel patches look like in various biomes at the end. Snowy Forest is an exception with only Iron Ore and Lead Ore found. Each biome can have any of the 4 ores indicated by the dug up gravel patch: Iron Ore, Lead Ore, Nitrate Powder, Lump of Coal. Some are mostly abundant in specific biomes, although digging gravel patches gives a little of the same resource that is underground (breaking Boulders should also indicate similarly). UNDERGROUND ORES: As of Alpha 17 indication of underground ores have changed. shovel - using a shovel allows fast gathering of the block, compared to stone axe or punching.wrench - object can be wrenched for additional resources.loot - object is a container and can be looted.stone axe - punching requires a few hits and don't give resources with each hit, whether using stone axe destroys it on one hit, getting resources or allows gathering them from the object at a steady pace per 1-2 hits (for example trees or boulders).punch - object can be punched and destroyed on hit, getting resources.Burnt Forest is not present in Random World Generation.ĭescriptions in square brackets show the first method (in many cases the best) of obtaining resources from the objects:

There are currently five Biomes in Navezgane and four in Random World Generation.

The exact numbers can be found in biomes.xml. From Alpha 17 it is also important to look out for clothing which can help alleviate negative effects of overheating in hot areas, as well as freezing in cold areas.ĭifferent Biomes also affect the Player's Loot Stage differently, therefore tougher biomes tend to contain higher tier and quality loot. When a survivor is looking for a place to build a home/fort/base, they should consider the pros and cons of each biome, as these will determine the difficulty by zombie spawns and available resources. This also extends to City areas which group together a number of Point of Interest buildings. Some Point of Interest buildings are specific to a biome, whether many can appear on any type of 'soil'. There are five Biomes in 7 Days to Die, which differ vastly from each other.

A Biome is a part of the world of 7 Days to Die with certain characteristics, such as climate, resources and types of zombies.
