Still having great difficulty finding any.

Am I doing it right? As I'm not sure the wiki is correct.

I'm in a boat. I dig in the shallow, and there is nothing. Then I sail for around half a minimap distance away and try again. Repeat. I must have been trying this for about 3 hours total.

Edit: Posting must have made me luckier. I'm now the proud owner of a Q30 clay node in a river. Not the highest quality ever but I'm just grateful to have found a node at all. Above question still stands, though.

Hm, yeah I will. Not going to really do much with a Q30 kiln. Nah, I wish - all tin. (I even detected a 4th)

By the way, when digging in mudflats, how frequent would you say your digs should be?

VERY often

500x more than ball clay.

This is why I settled at place near sand and clay field(And a lake!). Took a week to find... But it turned out to be worth that.
What a shame, he was a good fish. What a rotten way to be filleted.

I love how you had trouble finding clay yet had super rustroots to prospect...

I should really travel to the edge of the world... dunno how long that trip will take though.

I wrote that article on the wiki you know.
If you keep focusing on the shadow behind, you will not see the light in front of you.

Being successful isn't just about hard work and succeeding, it is also about picking yourself up when you fail.

The article on finding resource spots.
