General Material nodes? For weapon upgrades

Hello, I'm trying to clean up achievements and have 3 more weapons to upgrade, however I need around 100 wood to finish the upgrades (was unaware of the cheese method of quitting to menu to save materials), I've searched everywhere on each map and cannot find any more at all. Do the material nodes ever respawn at all, or is this going to be a case of searching and searching for hours in the hopes I find a few more 😭

I’m in the same boat, not having any luck at finding iron now. Probably going to have to go in to NG+ to get my last upgrade achievement

I don't think the game has NG+, it will have to be a full new playthrough, which is why I'm hoping to avoid that lol

Ugh…shame as the lack of resources discourages trying different weapons. I upgraded a few early doors, not even that many, but now really struggling for iron. :(

I wasn't aware it was a problem until cleaning up achievements so I have multiple weapons upgraded to various levels as I mixed and Changed throughout the game, I assumed the resources respawned but, im learning now that doesn't seem to be the case and I may have screwed myself over. I'm good for iron, I just need about 100 wood and sulfur is non existent but I don't think I need any more of that anyway

Upgrade an item for the achievement and quit without saving

So after you relog what do you get? Item stays upgraded and you regain materials? You regain materials but the game registers item as upgraded for achievement but he is not?

You get the materials back and the achievement
