Cobalt Ore Location in Hytale

by

Okay, so I’ve been exploring Hytale and cobalt ore is the thing to find right now. I just went on a mining trip, and honestly, hunting for it was way more fun than I expected – though definitely a bit risky! If you’re trying to get better armor, weapons, or tools, you need to know where to look. Let me share what I’ve learned about finding cobalt, where it usually spawns, and a few tricks I picked up along the way.

Finding the Right Biome

Okay, so if you’re trying to find cobalt ore, you need to go somewhere cold. I’m talking snowy areas, ideally with ice caps. Even just patches of snow seem to work, but honestly, the Whisper Frost Frontiers is your best bet – places like Frostmarch Tundra are perfect. Basically, if your map shows a snowy biome, you’re golden! Just be warned, it’s a pretty tough area, so make sure you’re prepared for a fight and maybe pack a few health potions… and snacks, because, you know, gaming.

Spotting and Mining Cobalt

When you reach the snowy area, cobalt ore is pretty easy to find. It’s noticeable against the ice and snow, and you can mine it with any pickaxe, even a basic one. I quickly noticed lots of cobalt around, sometimes even alongside gold. I managed to collect 51 cobalt in just a short time – either I was very lucky, or this area is naturally rich in it.

Looking at the map, I’ve found the best places to search are mountains that have both dirt at the bottom and snow on top. You can reach these early in the game, and they seem to have the richest mineral deposits – which is good, because the snowy areas themselves are pretty risky.

For those who like a challenge, you can also explore caves in the area. They’re smaller and more hazardous, but they also contain cobalt, often found on the ceiling or hidden in corners. Mining in caves works just like anywhere else in Hytale – be cautious and keep your pickaxe handy.

From Ore to Ingots

After you gather cobalt ore, simply return to your base and refine it using a furnace. I collected almost 100 pieces, and it was really rewarding to see them transform into gleaming cobalt ingots. These ingots are used to craft all sorts of cobalt items – armor, weapons, tools, and more – giving you everything you need to continue your adventure and explore the game’s content.

Wrap-Up

Finding cobalt ore in Hytale can be tough – it’s found in the cold, snowy areas of the Whisper Frost Frontiers. Be patient while mining, and then smelt the ore to get cobalt ingots. If you find yourself with extra materials, or just want to get creative with your base, I have a guide on making glass in Hytale too! It’s a different type of glass than you might expect, so don’t count on perfect windows just yet, but it’s still a fun crafting project.
