Copper Ore is a metal ore with excellent ductility and malleability. It conducts heat and electricity well, and the extracted copper is used for various purposes such as machinery, tableware, and jewelry. Copper Ore is commonly found in exposed veins on rocks throughout Pywel and serves as a mid-tier refinement material for equipment upgrades.

Copper Ore veins have a distinct greenish tint, similar to patinated copper. Unlike Iron Ore, they appear in smaller nugget formations rather than large rock faces. Search lower terrain and exposed rocks rather than high cliff faces.
Anvil Hill (southeast of Hernand): Found at the base of the hill, alongside Iron Ore deposits.
Southwest of Glenbright Manor (Hernand Highlands): A convenient early-game location accessible from the road leading southwest from the manor.
South of Goldenfist Arena: Walk along the northern side of the river just southwest of the arena to find accessible copper veins.
Once discovered, copper veins are permanently marked on your map and respawn periodically.
Local smithies in major towns carry a small stock of Copper Ore, though quantities are limited. Mining is the primary way to obtain larger amounts, especially for mid- and late-game upgrades.
Copper Ore is required for refinement upgrades at the smithy, serving the same equipment categories as Iron Ore but at higher upgrade tiers:
Weapons (metallic weapons)
Plate Armor (metal body armor)
Metal Shields (shield upgrades)
Material requirements for each upgrade tier are fixed and cannot be substituted. You will need Copper Ore when your equipment requires materials beyond basic Iron Ore.
Mine Copper Ore whenever you spot it during exploration. Mid-game upgrades require it, and veins are less common than Iron Ore.
Plan ahead for upgrade costs by visiting the smithy to check material requirements before committing to a weapon path.
Use Force Palm to instantly destroy copper deposits if you need to gather quickly.
