Void Essence
Tier 5legendaryA semi-stable exotic condensate that forms only in the deepest dark-zones, where space itself thins. Harvested exclusively by expeditions willing to venture beyond charted space, it is the keystone reagent of the very highest-tier crafting recipes.

Lore
“You cannot mine Void Essence. You can only be present when the dark-zone decides to give some up - and you can only collect it before the same physics that made it unmakes everything nearby. Every flask that reaches a market changed hands a dozen times before anyone dared open it.”
