At a glance

Where do you find Tin Ore?

Tin Ore is mined from Tin veins in mines and cave passages in the Nomad Highlands Shroud. The Nomad Highlands is the shrouded highland region, so expect shroud exposure and plan your runs around your shroud timer and light sources.

The wiki’s map marks which mines and cave passages hold veins, so check it before you set out. As always, a pickaxe is required to harvest the nodes.

What is Tin Ore used for?

Smelt Tin Ore into Tin Bars, then combine those with Copper Bars to make bronze — the gear tier above pure copper. The Tin Ore item page lists the exact recipes.

Tips for farming Tin Ore

• Clear a cave passage end to end; Tin veins are tucked into the same passages as other highland ores.
• Pair tin runs with copper ore gathering so you always have both bars for bronze.
• Watch your shroud timer — mine in bursts and retreat to safe ground rather than pushing deep on empty.
