Notes

• During a Sandstorm, Sand is added to the inventory if the player stays outside.
• A  Doedicurus is useful for gathering a lot of Sand.
• A  Rock Elemental is also good for harvesting sand.
• Sand has a high weight count (full stack = 50 weight) as both sand and stone are gathered from mining rocks on scorched earth it's highly advisable that you level up weight or keep a high capacity dino with you at all times.
