Different ore locations?

[Bored Peon]

Trying to remember which realms and which difficulties had "normal amounts of ores" is kind of pain because there is no "glossary entry."

Since I need a crapton of etched alloy ingots I need to chase down copper but I cannot remember where I saw it. Then I used up all my coal making steel and need more,

Desert has copper.

[Aranhawk]

Been realm hopping myself for different ores, Will be honest im getting tired of the running about and realm loading.

I was coming here to post something similar, I have gone to EVERY realm I can, I have all the ascension cards, and still CAN NOT find Gold Ore.
5 hours straight today I've been looking, and no luck.

I've given up.

I've seen gold in caves randomly

[Bored Peon]

Yeah seems some of the cave ores you need to get it when you see it.

Caves are usually around the Fae Portal and any area that has 2-3 POIs clumped together.

If you search the ore (or most resources) in the game's glossary menu, it'll show you where to find things. Same as the traders list, shows what each trader sells in each realm if you are looking for something specific.

Yeah for Gold it's Desert, yet 7 hours, ALL desert realm levels and still ZERO gold ore.

Gold starts appearing in desert 100+ with the silver but not in high quantity, Ideally you want to go desert 200+ which is essentially ascended desert extreme.

I have all the ascended cards, pretty much at the endgame, there's no quests left to do.
Character equipment rating is 105, I have a few recipes that require gold ore.

Guidebook--->Glossory. Will tell you realm and powerlevel you can find your resources.


I do not know if you need to find it the first time for it to show up.

Well, theres your problem. You are playing on easy. Gold spawns at very high rates in the desert on extreme. I would say open an ascended desert on extreme, but your equipment rating is to low to survive.

And there you go pointing out a flaw in the game itself...
It shouldn't matter what difficulty you're playing on, it should scale and have the ability to access ALL crafting materials, even at the end game.

It does, you just need to build up to the point where you can get the gold you desire.
Right now, to jump straight to gold, you'd die because you are used to easy, you will need to scale up to medium, hard and only then extreme difficulty realms.
