Where to Get Large Piece of Ore in Wild Hearts
The best way to get Large Piece of Ore is by mining mineral nodes, which usually look like bright orange/yellow spots on the ground and are usually found near rocks, caves, caverns, cliffs, or tunnels on all parts of the map. However, this specific material will only drop after players reach Chapter 3 of the Main Story.
Changes to the loot pool for ores in Chapter 3 will make the Large Piece of Ore frequent to find around the world. Keep in mind that it’s not a guaranteed drop, and each region will have its own unique details for the mineral nodes.
Lastly, you can always build a Tsukumo Ore Shrine to mine minerals for you. All you need to do is place it in areas where large pieces of ore are found, and the machine will do the rest. You can pick it up as early as Chapter 2 after getting the fish harvester or the upgrade that unlocks more healing water drinks.
