Ancient Civilization Parts

RareProcessed materialCrafting materialRare

Ancient Civilization Parts are a crafting material dropped by Alpha Pals, Lucky Pals, and dungeon end-chests. They feed the mid-tier Ancient Technology recipes — note that the purple Ancient Civilization Cores (raid bosses + expeditions + Oil Rig chests) are a separate, late-game item.

Debris excavated from ancient ruins. Contains abundant information on lost technology. Extremely valuable, people from all walks of life are now seeking such crystals.
