Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria is full of resources and goodies that you must extract to craft your gear and build up your base. However, you may find that you need the resource before you can find any.
Before you go ahead and rip up all the stone you can find to get your hands on some, let me simply tell you where you can find it instead.
Where resin generates in Return to Moria
Return to Moria is a procedurally generated game, so no two Morias are the same. For this reason, I can’t tell you where exactly you can go to get some, unfortunately. But I can point you in the right direction. To save you loads of time, resin won’t spawn at the starting depth, in the Western Halls. You’ll need to go deeper.
If you haven’t got past the Western Halls yet, then simply keep playing the game and keep advancing the story. Soon, you’ll come across a point where you can go deeper. In this next layer, called the Lower Deeps, resin will spawn. It will generate like coal and iron, and can be collected in the same way.

Resin is used for more complex recipes, so it’s no wonder it’s a more complex resource to find. Thankfully, it isn’t scarce in the Lower Deeps, and so you won’t have a hard time getting it once you’re there.
How to get to the Lower Deeps in Return to Moria
Despite the game being procedurally generated, there are some staples of every Moria that every player will go through. As you can’t escape Moria through the West Gate, you must travel to the East Gate, meaning you’ll have to go all the way through Moria. Escaping the Western Halls is the first part of that.
Thankfully, the Lower Deeps is the second area of the game, and all it takes if you following the objective marker in the Western Halls and mining through any stone walls that are in your way between rooms. To prevent you from running back and forth between your camp and the next wall you need to break through, creating numerous camps on your journey is needed.
I hope this has been helpful, and that you’ll have your pocket lined in no time. If you want even more Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria assistance, then tunnel on over to PC Invasion.
