Obsidian in Ark Fjordur is an important resource that you can use in the crafting of items like Polymer. If you’ve begun your Ark Fjordur journey, you may have already understood how important it is to collect various resources.
In this guide, I’ll go over locations where Obsidians spawn the most in Ark Fjordur and how you can farm it.
Ark Fjordur Best Obsidian Spawn Locations
One of the best locations to farm Obsidian with high spawn rates is the island on the southwest of the map, with large mountain ranges. The coordinates for this island are (70, 80).
The other major location with abundant Obsidian waiting to be farmed is located at the southeast corner of the map at the (80, 90) coordinates. You’ll find plenty of Volcano sites here that will have this resource. The exact locations for Ark Fjordur Obsidian are marked in the resource map image below.
This resource has many other spawn spots in Ark Fjordur besides the two locations mentioned above. These are marked on the map with blue spots. Most of these locations include Mountains, Volcanoes, and Cliff sites. However, since Obsidian itself is a resource formed out of Volcanic remains, I recommend you visit Volcanoes first to get this resource.
To farm Obsidian, players will simply have to use their mining pick from their inventory and use it against the large purple crystals they’ll find in the locations mentioned above. Use it to hit these crystals, and you’ll be able to acquire Obsidian. Visually Obsidian looks like a black rock with a deformed shape.
