How to Get Zinc
Zinc Ores in Nightingale are found on the ground. They are usually mined because they are materials needed to make Ingots, which are essential components players use to make better equipment.
In addition, each ore provides different bonuses, and some recipes require specific ores for the equipment to be crafted. As such, it’s important to know the difference in their look and color so that you won’t waste time mining the wrong thing.
How to Get Zinc
Zinc ores can be mined from boulders with a brownish interior and can be found in the Swamp Biomes. These boulders usually look like they have cracks, and those cracks should look a little brown and dull. Once you’ve seen a boulder similar to this, you’ll notice that you need a gear score of 10 to be able to mine it. A Simple Mining Pick will be enough to help you mine this ore.
Start hitting the rock with your pick, and parts of it will come off as little rocks that you can pick up.
Zinc Uses
Zinc is mainly used to create Ingots. Ingots can be made using 2x Ores (Zinc), and since Zinc is one of the Ores available in Nightingale, it can be made into one.
Once they’re turned into Ingots, they can be used in various ways, such as crafting better items to making new crafting stations. Here are some examples of crafting stations and items that need Ingot.
