Gathering Resources

There are four basic kinds of resources (if you discount time) that players use to build and upgrade buildings and units: fish, wood, runes, and vikings.

Fish and Wood
Both fish and wood can be obtained though: Different dragons are more and less efficient at gathering fish and wood. For example, at level 12, the Gronckle gathers 4,500 wood per hour, and it only gathers for 20 minute time periods before the player needs to re-send them to gather wood. By contrast, the Terrible Terror gathers 4,280 wood per hour, and only gathers for 11 minute periods at a time.

 * 2) Toothless finding them on his journeys,
 * 3) Completing collections and quests, and
 * 4) Defeating groups of raiders.

Below is a ranking of all dragons on how many fish they gather per hour. (Data was taken from the Rise of Berk wiki. Note that this list current does not include (a) dragons whose pages use the new table format and (b) any information on collection time.) The legend is ordered according to the ranking at level 60.
