			These links are a reference to inspected records, not a complete list of usable fixtures. A yellow or grey skill-up threshold does not establish when a recipe can be learned. Check the individual evidence before buying materials or planning a profession route.

			For recorded use effects, see [[Camp Chair]], [[Camp Tent]], [[Alchemy Laboratory]], [[Anvil]], [[Enchanted Lute]], [[Mana Well]] and [[Reagent Bot]]. Their item references separate readable beta descriptions from unresolved values and still-unverified behavior.

			== Placement and replacement ==
			Josh Greenfield said camps cannot generally be placed in cities or too close together; nearby camps produce a notification buff. A stronger fixture replaces a weaker equivalent. He tentatively recalled a roughly ten-minute lifetime for campfires and fixtures.<ref>Robin Baird, [https://www.mmorpg.com/interviews/blizzcon-2026-interview-chatting-wow-forevers-campsites-horizontal-progression-and-more-with-blizzard-2000138932 Campsites, Horizontal Progression, and More], MMORPG.com, 15 September 2026. Interview with Josh Greenfield and Jeff Parrott; accessed 17 September 2026.</ref>

			The interview does not establish an exact minimum spacing distance. Treat the recalled lifetime as a test target, rather than a dependable timer for a planned stop.

== Planning a group stop ==
Before setting out, compare which contributions your group can actually make. Choose a location together and observe the available placement controls. Capture any refusal message instead of assuming an area permits camping.

For a useful test, record the camp type, contributor, object, and resulting buff or service. Check one interaction at a time: for example, compare the displayed buff before and after applying the corresponding class effect. Include both screenshots and the build number in the report.

== Legacy references ==
The existing preview entries [[Field Guide (Legacy)|Field Guide]], [[Permanence (Legacy)|Permanence]], and [[Reagent Economy (Legacy)|Reagent Economy]] are relevant reading when comparing campsite behavior. Their individual pages retain the source's limitations; this guide does not extend their recorded values to unobserved ranks.
