50 articlesSandleaf is a very useful plant in Arknights: Endfield, but it doesn’t have many spawn locations in Valley IV.
This is an important material because it’s required for making high-tier gear. You can simply not make Lv. 50 gear until you get some Sandleaf plants!
In this guide, I’ll tell you where to go to find all Sandleaf spawn locations in Valley IV.
Where to Find Sandleaf in Valley IV | All Locations
There are 7 different spots where you can find Sandleaf in Valley IV. All of them are within the Power Plateau region, and you can’t find the plant anywhere else. I’ve marked them all on the map above for you.

You naturally unlock the Power Plateau as part of the “Entering the Endgame” quest in Chapter I – Process IV. It’s the first quest of that Process, so it’s right after completiong Chapter I – Process III.
At the same time, you’ll need to reach Authority Level 34. Remember, doing dailies and spending your Sanity on activities are the best ways to boost your Authority Level.
As for the Sandleaf plant itself, it looks like a bright yellow flower with prickly-looking petals. You can see an example of what they look like in the screenshot above, for reference.
If you visit all 7 spots I showed on the map at the start of this guide, you can expect to collect around 25 Sandleaf plants. They seem to respawn on a timer, though the exact timing for their respawns is currently unknown.
If you need a lot of Sandleaves, I highly recommend using Seed-Picking Units and Planting Units. You unlock them via the Planting node in the Processing category of the Basic AIC III tier in your AIC Plan
Seed-Picking Units turn the plants into seeds, then the Planting Units allow you to grow the seeds into plants. This makes you less reliant on the natural plant spawns!
Creating a feedback loop with them, like the setup above, gives you infinite Sandleaf. This can also be used to feed into Shredding Units for infinite Sandleaf Powder.
Nonetheless, that’s where to find all of the Sandleaf plant locations within Valley IV in Arknights: Endfield! I hope this helps you collect them to make the highly coveted Cryston Component!
