The sprawling artificial island introduced in Tower of Fantasy’s substantial 1.5 update offers an exciting new frontier filled with challenges to overcome and rewards to uncover. One of the most valuable prizes comes in the form of the Artificial Island Construction system – but tapping into its potential takes some effort.
As a gaming authority and early artificial island beta tester, I will illuminate everything you need to know about the construction feature, how to unlock it, and how to use it to its full advantage.
A Primer on Artificial Island Construction
By meeting certain requirements and speaking with NPC Kolador at Base Zero, you can unlock facilities that provide bonuses and progression perks on the artificial island. Let‘s break down what you can build:
Development Center
This primary facility allows you to construct gear, vehicle frames, vessels and more. The Development Center also unlocks the other construction features. Upgrading it increases your daily material generation for crafting.
| Level | Materials Required | Daily Materials Generated |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 0 | 150 |
| 2 | 1800 | 225 |
| 3 | 5000 | 300 |
Trading Post
Exchanging excess materials at the Trading Post allows you to obtain items you need for gear advancement, cooking, and reputation rewards. Upgrading it unlocks more item types to trade.
Plantation
Growing valuable crops on the Plantation contributes ingredients to craft consumables via cooking which grant buffs. Upgrade this farm to increase crop yield over time.
Walker Ranch
House and upgrade mounts like Gryphon Walker at this facility to enhance overworld movement speed and combat capabilities. Additional mount slots also unlocked.
Step-By-Step Instructions to Gain Access
Now that you know the tremendous benefits the construction system offers, let’s examine how to unlock it:
Prerequisites
- Reach Character Level 60
- Earn 840 Artificial Island Exploration Progress
Meeting either threshold will fulfill the core requirement. If your level isn’t high enough, focus on clearing side quests to boost it.
I recommend also pushing to 840 island progress regardless, as the attached challenges and bosses will provide you with essential upgrade materials. The secrets you uncover along the way may even unveil shortcuts helping you build faster later on!
Unlocking Process
Once your level or island progress hits the target, take these exact steps:
- Open your menu and navigate to the “Build” section
- Travel to Base Zero and seek out the NPC named Kolador
- Interact with Kolador again and select the new “Construct” conversation option
- Choose “Upgrade” then select “Construct” to officially establish your Development Center!
After completing this process, the foundations of your construction empire will be laid. Kolador hints that further artificial island exploration and resource gathering is needed to build it up. So let’s discuss how to do precisely that efficiently.
