How to Obtain Materials

Here's where to find the materials needed to craft Cobalt Shield:

Cobalt Ingot
Smelt Cobalt Ore at a Furnace - Crafted from Cobalt Ore

Cobalt Ingots are produced from the distinctive blue Cobalt Ore found in Zone 3. This durable metal creates equipment with excellent longevity.

Tips:
  • Cobalt Ore has a distinctive blue color
  • Found primarily in Zone 3 caves
  • Cobalt gear has high durability
  • Good mid-to-late game material
Heavy Leather
Process Heavy Hide at a Tannery - Crafted from Heavy Hide

Heavy Leather is processed from the thick hides of bears, yetis, and prehistoric beasts. This durable material provides excellent protection but is heavier than other leather types.

Tips:
  • Heavy Hide comes from dangerous creatures
  • The toughest leather available
  • Excellent for tank-style armor builds
  • Worth the dangerous hunts to obtain
Shadoweave Scraps
Dropped by Outlanders - Zone 3 - Outlander camps

Shadoweave Scraps come from the dark robes worn by the mysterious Outlander faction. These void-touched cultists and warriors in Zone 3's frozen wilderness wear clothing woven with shadow magic.

Tips:
  • Outlander camps dot the Zone 3 landscape
  • Cultists and Priests drop more shadoweave
  • The material retains its dark properties when crafted
  • Used in stealth and shadow magic gear
Heavy Hide
Dropped by large predators and beasts - Zone 3, Zone 4

Heavy Hide is obtained from the largest and most dangerous creatures. Grizzly Bears, Polar Bears, the massive Mosshorn, the fiery Emberwulf, and prehistoric Trillodons all drop this thick, durable material. Nine powerful creatures provide this high-tier resource.

Tips:
  • Bears are found in forests and mountains - approach with caution
  • Yetis roam the highest, coldest peaks of Zone 3
  • Cave raptors and rex in Zone 4 are extremely dangerous
  • Heavy Hide creates the sturdiest leather armor
