When you get your hands on the first Pickaxe inRunescape: Dragonwilds, you’ll realize that it doesn’t deal a lot of damage to the nodes, and it takes you quite a while to farm even the stone boulders. One way to make this faster and get better equipment in the game is by looking for some Copper ore to makeBronze Bars.

While Copper ore is one of the most basic resources for the mid-game, you won’t be able to get it for quite a while since you need to progress to the fourth biome. Aside from Copper, you’ll also need to farm some Tin if you want to get some use out of it.

Where To Find Copper Ore

To get yourself some Copper in Runescape: Dragonwilds, you have to reach the Fractured Plains biome. This is the fourth biome in the game right after Whispering Swamp, andyou can easily identify it with the pink-colored grass. This is the biggest biome in the game, and it has Copper nodes scattered everywhere.

An easy way to identify these nodes is bylooking for some circular piles of stone with orange-colored ore on them. Once you find the ore, you can easily mine it with the Rocksplosion ability or get yourself a Bone Pickaxe. Since they’re scattered in a huge area, it’s alsorecommended to place some Lodestonesfor easy travel next time.
