Bronze Bars take an unbelievably long time to process inEnshrouded. Not only that, but you also need to grab and process all sorts of resources just to craft a single piece of Bronze Bar. With that in mind, you have to set up an area in your base for the whole production to get all the Bronze Bar you need.
There are a few shortcuts you may do to make your Bronze Bar production run more efficiently. As long as you have the prerequisites of having certain tools and equipment unlocked from the main questline, everything is a piece of cake from here.
Enshrouded is in early access and everything is subject to change depending on the developers. The article will be updated accordingly when the information here becomes outdated.
How To Craft Bronze Bars
Crafting Bronze Bars requires you to unlock the Smelter and the Charcoal Kiln. Most of the time, you’ll have these unlocked even before finding the materials used to craft Bronze Bars. If you haven’t unlocked them yet, finish the Blacksmith’s questline until you get the Smelter.
To set up an efficient Bronze Bar production,find a small space in your base where you can place three Smelters and two Charcoal Kilns. You can also place other tools related to metallurgy close to each other if you want.
The reason you want three Smelters and two Charcoal Kilns is because of the Bronze Bar’s recipe or resource requirements.A single craft produces ten pieces of Bronze Bars, but you will need seven Copper Bars, three Tin Bars, and ten Charcoal for each craft.
That means you need each Smelter to craft one specific bar, which is why you need three of them to be efficient.All of these Smelters require Charcoal, so you need a constant supply of Charcoal, which is why you need two Charcoal Kilns.
Once you have these tools up, it is time to get the resources.
Before going out to get the resources, bring at least two pickaxes for your mining adventures. Even your old tools will mine you some extra resources before your best pickaxe’s durability runs out. You can also reset your skill points and grab the mining skill nodes to gain some extra resources.
Where To Get Copper Ore
The best spot to farm Copper Oreis near the mountainous area in Revelwood. If you have the Revelwood Ancient Spire fast travel point, you can get to the spot in the image above in under 30 seconds.
There are two locations with hundreds of Copper Ore you can mine, and they are quite close to each other. If you look at the image above, there are two custom markers set on the map.
Those two markers contain multiple Copper Ore spawns that you may go back to every time the day resets.You don’t have to place a Flame Altar for a closer fast travel point since the Revelwood fast travel point is already near.
When farming Copper Ore, you can turn them into Copper Bars and craft yourself a Copper Pickaxe to improve your mining efficiency. You’ll need it to efficiently farm more Tin Ore.
Where To Get Tin Ore
The best farming spot for Tin Oreis in the Mining Rift to the west of the Nomad Highlands Ancient Spire fast travel point. Like the Copper Ore location mentioned above, this one has even more Tin Ore nodes in the area, but enemies are roaming around the caves or mines.
You have to deal with enemies or else they’ll keep annoying you as you mine the Tin Ores. Don’t try to mine without clearing the enemies. They might catch you when you are running out of stamina while you are mining.
For the other resources, mainly Charcoal, you’re able to freely farm Wood Logs from trees and Dirt from mining the ground. You can even do this in the starting area, so it doesn’t matter as these resources are always easily available.
What Are Bronze Bars Used For?
Once you have some Bronze Bars, you can craft the following, assuming you have the recipes unlocked:
There are a lot of useful Bronze Bar crafts here, sokeep an ample supply of Bronze Bars, especially if you are playing as a ranger and you are crafting Bronze Arrows for combat. Once you have unlocked the Iron Ore, you might need to add one more Smelter if you want to keep your Bronze production.
You should focus on upgrading your tools, so you may farm resources much more efficiently.
