Core Keeper is a sandbox survival game that has a rather cute style, and tons of fun buried underneath the adorable exterior. The dark and dangerous biomes you’re about to explore offer tons of fun, if you can survive. That’s not a guarantee, as the cutesy environs hide tons of danger. Murderous slimes and other beasts are just the beginning. You even need to wrangle with wild NPCs and other threats. But dealing with these threats doesn’t have to be that hard. You can equip yourself with some quite powerful gear to help survive.
Getting that powerful gear won’t be easy. Scarlet Ore in Core Keeper is one of the rarest items in the game. You need to be deep into the game to even unlock it. The path to get here won’t be easy, and will involve taking on some tough bosses.
How to get Scarlet Ore in Core Keeper
You will need to put time into the game by defeating the late-stage bosses: Glurch, Ghorm and The Hive Mother. These are much stronger than the slimes and other enemies early in the game, so be sure to bring your best fighting skills and gear. Once you have defeated these bosses, you’re ready to progress. After beating each boss, place their crystal inside the core to progress further. You will need to gather the items and place them in, then make your way to the Great Wall.
Starting the Core will remove the barrier around Azeos’ Wilderness and open up your ability to get to the next step. Once you touch the wall and it vanishes, speak to the Core again and it will tell you which direction to travel to find the new Azeos Wilderness biome. This is also how you have to find the Chipped Blade. Scarlet Ore in Core Keeper can only be found in Azeos’ Wilderness
Once you’ve found a ready source of Scarlet Ore in Core Keeper, exploit it as much as you can. This will unlock the current top-tier crafting, via the Scarlet Workbench. To create the Scarlet Workbench, you need the following materials: Tin Bar x10, Iron Bar x15, Scarlet Bar x25.
The biggest gain from doing all of this work is the use of Automation, which unlocks Ore Drills and other useful items. Get out there and mine.
