Rusty Steamer Metal Scrap is one of the earliest materials you’ll need in Everwind, so it’s a good idea to know where and how to find it.
Thankfully, it’s actually a surprisingly easy material to find! In fact, the tutorial even leads you to where it is. By the same token, though, it’s easy to miss as the tutorial doesn’t directly point at it.
Either way, I’ll tell you everything you need about where and how to find this resource.
Where to Find Rusty Steamer Metal Scrap

If you’re really early on in the game, your best bet for Rusty Steamer Metal Scrap is the broken airship in the starting island. This is part of the tutorial and can not be missed as you’ll get led to it, as shown in the image above.

When you are checking out the airship and starting the process to rebuild the airship, look for copper metal plates with purple highlights. They should look something like the example above. For these, all you need to do is to pick them up!
Should you need more Rusty Steamer Metal Scrap this early on, I recommend exploring the same starting island you’re on. It’s random due to world generation, but you can usually find other broken airships on the island.

Later on in the game, you can easily find Rusty Steamer Metal Scrap by checking out the ruins in the Ruined Lands biome. They looks something like the example above.
To spot the Ruined Lands, it’s easiest to just fly around on your airship. Look for areas with desaturated browns and greens, as well as dead trees. The ruins themselves are a bit pink and purple, so they stand out, too.
Nonetheless, that’s all you need to know to find Rusty Steamer Metal Scrap in Everwind! In summary, check broken airships as well as the metallic ruins in Rotten Lands. Hope that helps you get as much as you need!
