Pros: Location may not trigger raids (unconfirmed), untouchable in raids.

Pros: A crude oil node surrounded by quartz, ore, coal, and stone.
Cons: Exposed to raids, hard to defend if unprepared.
Closest teleport: Thawtide Cape. This location offers a rich bounty of resources, but players should be prepared for potential raids. Strategically building closer to the mountain can provide a tactical advantage while maximizing resource access.
