The Best Places to Farm Platinum in New World
Find out the recommended spots for Platinum Ore in New World, with different locations to suit every playstyle.
What Platinum Ore is used for in New World
Platinum is used in Jewelry making—able to craft high-level necklaess, earrings and rings at the Outfitting station.
To make the Platinum you need in Jewel crafting, you will also need a lot of Silver and Gold, since these first two metals are needed to then craft the third-tier metal—platinum.
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 Platinum, you won’t see it very often in all low-level areas of the map, so it’s best to wait until you’re nearer level 60 before starting to seriously farm Platinum ore.
