Delicate plants (Redjade Ginseng, Amber Rice, Reed Rye, Tartpepper) can ONLY be grown on Eco-Farm plots, not in factory production lines. Set up your plots based on which consumables you use most. ### World Spawns * • **Redjade Ginseng:** Only 1 world spawn, south of Wuling City * • **Amber Rice:** Found in Wuling region * • **Rare Plants:** Spawn rarely in stands of their common counterparts (Firebuckle near Buckflower, Umbraline near Citrome, etc.) ### Monster Drops * • **Fillet:** Wild Tuskbeast, Bonekrusher Ripptusks * • **Slug Meat:** Dried Originium Slugs * • **Grovenymph Pupa:** Grovenymphs * • **Quillbeast Liver:** Quillbeasts ## Eco-Farm Recommendations What to plant based on your needs and playstyle. ### Beginner Focus on Buckflower and Citrome for easy healing items. Grow Jincao for additional healing options. ### Mid-Game Add Reed Rye and Tartpepper for buff foods. Start hunting for rare spawns of Firebuckle and Umbraline. ### Endgame Prioritize Redjade Ginseng for the best DPS consumables. Use factory automation for mass production. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### What is Fine F&M in Arknights Endfield? Fine F&M stands for Fine Food & Medicine. It's a category of materials in Endfield that can be used to craft consumables like healing items and buff foods. Many materials in the game have the description 'Can be used to make fine food and medicine (Fine F&M).' ### What's the difference between Common, Delicate, and Rare plant materials? Common plants (Buckflower, Citrome, Jincao, Yazhen) can be grown in Eco-Farm plots and used in production lines. Delicate plants (Reed Rye, Tartpepper, Redjade Ginseng, Amber Rice) require Eco-Farm plots but are stronger. Rare plants (Firebuckle, Umbraline, Fluffed Jincao, Thorny Yazhen) spawn rarely near their common counterparts and produce the strongest consumables. ### What are the best consumables for DPS in Arknights Endfield? Ginseng Meat Stew provides +180 flat attack and +11% critical rate for 300 seconds - the best DPS consumable. Fortifying Infusion gives +9% critical rate and +18% all damage. These outperform percentage-based buffs in early-mid game when base stats are below 1,000. ### Where do I farm Redjade Ginseng? Redjade Ginseng has only one world spawn location south of Wuling City. You can also grow it on Eco-Farm plots. It takes 8 Ginseng to craft Ginseng Meat Stew or Ginseng Meat Stew, making it a high-value crop. ### Should I focus on Delicate plant recipes?
