If you want to fill your pockets with an infinite amount of Essence Dust in Nightingale, I can show you how. Nightingale is a crafting and survival game that has launched in early access, and as with most games in that category, there are some teething issues.

One such bug allows you to get an infinite amount of Essence Dust for little effort, so take advantage while you can, as it'll likely be removed from the game in a flash.

Infinite Essence Dust farming method

This method can be done as soon as you make it out of the tutorial and into your permanent Abeyance Realm.

  • First, check your map, and you should find a group of icons clustered together, one of which will be the icon for an Essence Trader. Once you've located them, head straight over to it
  • Among the items they sell, you'll find Water Bottle (Water) under the 'Item.Consumable.Potion section', which can be purchased for 10 Essence Dust.
    • You'll want to purchase as many as you can currently afford

Buying Water Bottles to extract Essence Dust in Nightingale

Once you have your Water Bottles, head into your inventory and extract Essence Dust from them. Each will provide 40 Essence Dust, meaning you can quadruple your ED for each one you buy. To keep this train going, you simply need to buy more of them and extract them for even more Essence Dust.

The only downside to this is that you can only buy one Water Bottle at a time, so the more you do this, the more you'll need to click the buy button.

If you have a macro, a turbo controller, or one of those bobbing bird things you could automate the process, but with just a few minutes of effort you'll be swimming in thousands of Essence Dust.
