How to get Iron Ingot in Hytale

Iron Ore is a central part of early game development in Hytale. Here's how to find it and smelt it to get iron ingot.

The most useful items crafted with hardwood are the small iron chests (which are more resilient than regular chests) as players will need plenty of storage to drop their hard-earned loot. The rest of the items may be more useful for those who want to be extremely creative with their bases.

Nevertheless, hardwood has a lovely image and can be used to give your base a nice homely touch, something that cannot be done with regular logs. In addition, players can use them to create patterned wooden walls with colored claywhich looks fantastic. That way, when you play Hytale with friends, everyone can have their home decorated to their own taste.

Remember: The furniture workbench must be placed in the same room and on the same floor as the chest containing the materials for them to count.
