Luxite is a resource collected from its own outcrops. It is a pale yellow mineral that glows brightly at night, allowing them to be easily spotted and harvested.

Luxite is luminous and possesses regenerative properties, making it useful for crafting illumination accessories and alloys. It's also a material for conveyors.

It's outcrops can be commonly found in Mountains, Grasslands, and the Deserts.

Luxite Shard[ | ]

Luxite Shard
Luxite Shard
The yellow resource known as Luxite Shards.
value: 15 ฿฿

Lore
Luxite's vital and reparative properties were first identified and pioneered by kinesiologist and keen-gardener, Mary Beth Skellorn. She found that the raspberries grown amongst Luxite rich soil would yield an outstanding harvest, despite also attracting constant assaults from vast numbers of creepy crawlies (much to her annoyance). After close observation she discovered that a close proximity to the Luxite was enabling the berries to regrow almost as fast as they were being consumed.

The Luxite Shard is a very common resource at a value of 15 ฿฿ making it the 4th least valuable resource in the game. It is currently the most common crystal type resource in the game. Due to its luminous properties, Luxite Outcrops glow in the dark and are easy to spot.

Luxian Crystal[ | ]

Luxian Crystal
Luxian Crystal
The refined resource from Luxite Shards.
value: 23 ฿฿


Lore
Skellorn recognized the amazing potential for Luxite and wasted no time in sharing her findings (Tempus Fugit!). Many now believe that Luxite has the potential to solve world hunger and cure all disease. The wonder material has already been put to work in the creation of regenerative field technologies, habitation chambers, medical bays and food replication units.

The Luxian Crystal is the refined version of the Luxite Shard. It also has the same ability as its raw version and can light up at night. It has a value of 23 ฿฿ making it the least valuable refined crystal in the game.

Trivia[ | ]

  • Luxite is the only renewable resource that is a crystal.
    • As it leaves no visible seams, it is possible that Luxite is capable of self-healing, and since harvesting it scatters powder around, it can be presumed that Luxite grows from small particles to large crystals.
      • However, as Luxite outcrops are never found in barren areas without plant life, it can be presumed that it still has a basic growth requirement, or require plants for symbiotic development. This is further supported by Luxite's ability to bolster plant growth, possibly implying a mutually beneficial relationship.
    • Rubber, Fiberwood, and Luxite are the only 3 resources in the entire game that are renewable.
