When exploring snow caves, players should bring Torches with them as they’re a good source of both light and heat.
Once they’re inside an ice cave, players should keep exploring it till they come across shiny Iron clusters on the walls. It’s easily noticeable as the ore has a silver metallic glow and a slight orange tint that contrasts with the cave’s icy blue interior. Players can mine Iron using anEpic Pickaxe.
An Epic Pickaxe can be crafted on a Crafting Bench that has been upgraded to the Epic tier. To craft an Epic Pickaxe, players needfive Frostpine Rods and eight Obsidian Slabs.
