The Best Places to Farm Orichalcum in New World
Find out the recommended spots for Orichalcum Ore in New World, with different locations to suit every playstyle.
What Orichalcum Ore is used for in New World
Orichalcum is the last-level ore that can currently be mined in New World. It’s used to make the top level ingots, which are used to create weapons, gear, and tools.
Most recipes require the Orichalcum to first be smelted into an ingot, which to do so, will require a lot of the previous-tier ores to be able to make a decent amount of Orichalcum metal. So, be prepared to have a decent inventory of Iron and Starmetal ready.
How To Find the Best Mining Areas
Once you’re in your favorite area, bring up the Map (press M by default) and take notice of the different colors on the map surface. For mining, we’re looking for the light brown areas of the map—so the bigger the patch of brown you see, the greater chance you’ll have of finding large amounts of mining nodes.
For high-level ores like Orichalcum, there are really not very many nodes in the low-level areas worth visiting if you want to really farm it. You’ll need to be higher level, and ready to venture into slightly more dangerous areas to get this top-tier metal.
