Copper Ore is the first metal tier you will need, and it is the backbone of every early-game tool, weapon, and base upgrade. This guide covers exactly where to find it and what to do once you have it.

At a glance

Where do you find Copper Ore?

Copper Ore is mined from Copper Ore veins, and it is first found in the Revelwood — the open biome you reach after leaving the Springlands starting area. The nodes are copper-colored rock outcrops scattered through the region; once you know the tone you will spot them easily.

You need a pickaxe to harvest them. If you are still in the Springlands, clear the early quests that unlock your first tools, then push into the Revelwood and start your copper loop.

What is Copper Ore used for?

Smelt Copper Ore into Copper Bars at a Smelter, then craft the first tier of gear that carries you through the Revelwood. For the full recipe list and the exact bars each item costs, see the Copper Ore item page.

Tips for farming Copper Ore

• Bring a pickaxe and clear a few nodes per trip — they respawn, so a loop route pays off.
• Pair a copper run with other Revelwood gathering: clay deposits and tin veins are in the same region.
• Stash excess bars at your Flame Altar so you are never short when a new recipe unlocks.
