To find cobalt in Hytale, be ready to pack your bag and travel into the less-inviting regions of the game. Though cobalt doesn't spawn in Hytale's lovely meadows, it won't take long to collect some once you're in the right area. Hope you aren't scared of heights!

Ready for an expedition? Here's where to look for cobalt ore in Hytale.

How to get Cobalt in Hytale

In Hytale, cobalt spawns in snowy biomes, which are part of Whisperfront Frontiers, the boreal zone. Look for snowy plains, mountains, and forests. If you open your map, the snow realm should look like this:

One of the best places to look for cobalt is on mountain slopes, as you can often spot deposits from a decent distance. Although the large mountains on the map (as pointed out by the two lower arrows) aren't fully covered in snow, both offered plenty of cobalt. Just be careful not to fall!

While searching for cobalt in the snowy plains instead of the mountains, look for caves. There's often some cobalt found at the entrance, with far more inside if you're brave enough to descend. The upper left arrow on the map points to an example of such a cave entrance.

You don't need any special equipment to obtain cobalt in Hytale; a crude pickaxe will suffice. Cobalt ore has a dark blue color, which might make it a bit harder to spot against a backdrop of grey stone compared to other types of ore, such as the bright green thorium.

Now that you've got some cobalt ingots in your Hytale inventory, here are some cobalt items you might want to craft first:
