Resin Guide
I've created a series of videos which show all the known resin locations in the game. They are kind of like speed runs where I pretty much ignore everything and focus only on obtaining resins to make it easier for the viewer to locate. Please take a look!

I found more resin that are not included in this guide.

In the room with the first upgrade station are 4 extra resin that only spawn if you are low on resin (2, 3, 4 and 5). You can get those if you carry the first 21 resin in a bucket (without packing them in your backpack!).
You now are on 0 resin in your backpack and a bucket of 21 resin at the room with the upgrade station and instead of 1 resin, this room has 5 resin.
Yes, this is stupid. Yes this works. Yes I feel stupid for discovering this.

Also at the end of the same map there is one resin trapped inside the ground. I have not jet found a way to get it out there and obtain it. So this is something valve has to fix some day.

One more resin can be found at the very end of Chapter 6. To get inside the distillery you have to solve a electric puzzle to get the crane powered. If you route the electricity to the left side of the cabinet, there should be an explosion that opens the left door. But this event is a little buggy. However, this sets a property to the door that bugs it out and you just can go through the door like it is not there and grab the resin inside the cabinet.

So including the bugged Resins, there is a total of 300, with 4 bonus resin as a "failsafe" that can still be collected.

Edit: @Valve please fix the two bugged resin.

Wow thanks for the info. That is funny about the 4 free resin if you were unfortunate enough to have skipped everything before that.

Out of curiosity, what is an exact location of the first bugged resin?

I just carried my first 21 resin in a bucket and found 3 extra in the room. Not 4 but still real good good. Thanks for the tip,

Well done! I have added your finds to my guide ! I am also curious where in the CH2 map the first bugged resin is located, I remember seeing details a while ago but I cannot find them now.

so, in videos there is total of 298 resin. And comments suggest there is 304.

Thing is, all upgrades together cost 270 resin total. Which means there is redundancy either way, which is neat
P.S. sorry for bringing up old thing, thought info could be interesting

Without cheating or modding, there are 303 retrievable resin in the game. The 304th one is locked beneath some map geometry and cannot be accessed in the base game. And yes, you only need 270 to upgrade each weapon, so there is some margin for error throughout the game.

There are some "trapped" resin that are released (put in a nearby place where they can be picked up) if you carry the Resin Detector Mod with you.
