A Beginner’s Guide to Mining Tin in RuneScape: Dragonwilds
Hey there, fellow gamers! If you’re diving into the world of RuneScape: Dragonwilds, you might have heard that tin is super important for crafting armor. This guide will show you how to find and mine tin ore so you can level up and stay safe from the tougher enemies out there. Let’s go on this adventure together!
What’s the Big Deal About Tin?
Tin isn’t just any metal; it’s essential for making bronze armor. Along with copper, tin helps protect you from fierce foes lurking in scenes as intense as your favorite video games. So, getting your hands on it is a must if you want to survive in the game and become a skilled player!
Where to Find Tin in RuneScape: Dragonwilds
To collect tin, you’ll need to mine Tin Nodes. The best place to find these is in the Fractured Plains area. Head towards the western side near the broken bridge, and you’ll notice shiny silver-colored ores, which are the tin nodes. They’re different from copper ores, which have an orange hue.
Pro Tip: If you set up a Lodestone nearby, it becomes easier to travel back and forth to the mining site whenever you need more tin. It saves time and keeps your adventure flowing!
How to Mine Tin Ore
Now that you know where to find tin, let’s talk about how to actually mine it. You will need a special tool called the Bone Pickaxe. Here’s how to craft one:
- Find a Bone: This will unlock the recipe for the Bone Pickaxe.
- Use a Crafting Table: Go up to a crafting table and select the Bone Pickaxe recipe.
- Gather Your Materials: You’ll need:
- 8 bones
- 6 ash logs
- 4 leather
- Craft Your Pickaxe: Hit that Craft button, and there you have it — your very own Bone Pickaxe!

Boosting Your Mining Speed
Once you have your Bone Pickaxe, mining tin becomes a lot easier. If you want to speed things up, you can use the Rocksplosion spell. To do this, you’ll need:
- 15 Earth Runes
- 5 Fire Runes
- Your Bone Pickaxe
Using this spell increases your mining speed, making it easier to gather more tin in a shorter time.
Keep Your Eyes Open!
If you want to find tin ore nodes more quickly, don’t forget to use the Detect Ore + Clay ability. This cool feature summons a little spirit that guides you to all the nearby ores. It’s like having your own mini assistant to help you out!
