Metal is an important resource in Ark Ragnarok that aids in crafting many important tools and structures. Once you get metal, extract it using a metal pickaxe and refine it into ingots. For refining, you will need two pieces of metal ore from the industrial or any other forge to make one ingot.
Other than metal pickaxe, you can also gather metal using Ankylosaurus. Let’s go over some of the best locations you can visit in Ark Ragnarok to harvest this resource.
Metal Location #1
The first location is at 14.9 Latitude and 40.6 Longitude in the north corner of the map, the eastern portion of Maple Roost. There are plenty of metal nodes around the cliffs.
Metal Location #2
The next location is in the Redwoods right next to the cliff at 41.1 Latitude and 68.7 Longitude. Head north from this location, and you will find many metal nodes. While exploring this area, you might encounter a high-level Thylacoleo.
Metal Location #3
The third spot is on the western part of the map, at 32.5 Latitude and 28.5 Longitude. It is a great place to build a base.
Metal Location #4
A little further from the previous location near the shoreline of swamp island at 46.7 Latitude and 27.4 Longitude. This is one of the best metal farming spots in Ark Ragnarok.
Metal Location #5
The last location is the central Canyon, another decent area to farm metal. Head straight to 40.2 Latitude and 42.6 Longitude. Fly around the area. You will find plenty of metal nodes scattered across the cliffs.
Metal Spawn Command in Ark Ragnarok
If you’re having trouble finding Metal in Ark Ragnarok, you can use spawn commands to have this item spawn in your inventory. To do this, you must open the cheat console by pressing the TAB key on your keyboard.
If you’re playing on PlayStation, you’ll need to hold down L1, R1, Square, and Triangle at once, and similarly, on Xbox, hold down LB, RB, X, and Y at once.
