Iron’s important in Core Keeper for getting better gear and checking out tougher areas. Getting this metal isn’t easy though. Here’s the lowdown on finding and getting iron.
Identifying and Locating Iron in Core Keeper
Iron’s important and you can spot it cause it kinda glows in the stone walls. You’ll mostly find it in two places. First is the Stone biome, lots of iron there. Then there’s the Forgotten Ruins biome, ancient stuff and lots of iron too.
Preparation Before Mining Iron
Before you go after iron in Core Keeper, make sure you’re ready. The place can be rough. You’ll want a tin pickaxe cause it’s good for getting iron out of the ground. Wear bronze armor, the helmet’s good for mining. Plus, there are these accessories, the ring of rock and the ring of stone, they make your mining better by a lot, like +63% better.
Effective Mining Techniques
It’s not just about the gear, how you mine matters too. Take a portable repair station with you, keeps your tools good. If you want to mine fast, go for the sand areas in the biomes. They break easy, so you get to the iron quick. But, these places have dangers. In the Stone biome, watch out for shamans, quick cablings, and big hulks or trolls. Beating a shaman might get you a fireball staff, pretty powerful stuff. The Forgotten Ruins biome is tougher, with caving shaman and big cabling brutes. Always be ready for what’s coming.
