The Cycle: Frontier | Best Way To Craft Uncommon Loadout

This is a short guide to the best places in Bright Sands to find the resources needed to make an unusual loadout.

The Cycle: Frontier Interactive Map [map.thecyclefrontier.wiki] provided the data; full credit goes to the great guys who produced the map. For K-Marks farming, I’ve also included information on where to find Old Currency, Focus Crystals, and Jewelry.
