Where to find clay in Romestead

Mud is found as an orange puddle in random places in the world. The material is not limited to one biome, as players are more likely to stumble upon a mud pool than apple trees while exploring.

If players have been walking around for a while and haven't found anything, you may have missed it. Open the map and look for any orange shape, as it is the indicator of a mud pool location.

Be sure to look carefully as the mud pools can sometimes be hidden behind a large tree or rock.

Mud pools are usually surrounded by a couple of barrels and a cart. To extract mud from the pool as a material and use it in building or crafting, take a barrel and approach the pool to fill it. After you use it, you get the empty barrel back for another use. However, if a build requires more barrels than you own, you must craft the missing ones in order to build.
