Mire Metal Ingot is the third-tier refined metal in Windrose, associated with the Cursed Swamps biome. It is the material gate for the Enchanting Table, the Bellows (Weaponsmith upgrade), the Distiller (Alchemy Table upgrade), and the Jeweller's Bench (Jewellery Table upgrade).
Source
Mire Metal Ingot is crafted at the Large Smelting Furnace from 2 Ancient Scraps + 1 Quagmire Powder per ingot (30 second duration). Both ingredients come from the Cursed Swamps biome: Ancient Scraps are looted from ruin chests, sunken ships, and bog pockets, while Quagmire Powder drops from Plague enemies (witches, hunters, warriors). It is not mined as raw ore.

Farming the Inputs
Both ingredients for Mire Metal Ingot come from the Cursed Swamps. Ancient Scraps are looted from ruin chests, sunken ship wrecks, and bog pockets, while Quagmire Powder drops from Plague enemies such as the Plague Witch, Plague Hunter, and Plague Warrior. A practical loop is to clear a swamp settlement for Ancient Scraps and farm Plague enemies for Quagmire Powder on the same trip, then smelt at the Large Smelting Furnace. The recipe takes 30 seconds per ingot, so stockpile both inputs before a smelting session.
Plan input ratios around the 2 to 1 split: every ingot needs 2 Ancient Scraps and 1 Quagmire Powder, so Ancient Scraps run out first on most runs. There is no raw ore node for this metal; it exists only as a smelted product, which is why a steady swamp supply chain matters before committing to the Enchanting Table, Bellows, Distiller, or Jeweller's Bench upgrades.
