How to Find Iron and Cave Entrance in Aska
Having trouble locating a cave entrance or running low on iron in ASKA? Check out our guide, where we explain how to farm this essential mineral.
ASKA throws you into the life of a Viking venturing out to build a thriving settlement in a vast procedurally generated world. You'll gather resources, craft tools, and brave the wilderness to ensure your survival. If you want to craft powerful weaponry and armor, iron is essential. Read on to learn how to find this mineral and what to do when your mine dries out.
How to Find Cave in Aska
Caves are vital structures in ASKA. With only one cave per map, locating it can be challenging. However, once your village is efficiently organized and food production is running smoothly, you should begin searching for its entrance.
A cave entrance can only be built on a specific rock formation. While exploring, press Z to scan the area. If a large rock cluster highlights, like in the picture above, you’re in luck! That’s the spot where you can construct an entrance and explore the cave’s interior.
How to Find Iron in Aska
Iron deposits in ASKA are exclusively located in caves, and in the Early Access there are only three such deposits available. If these deposits run dry this could mean trouble, as iron is crucial for everything. Upgrading buildings (which decay over time) requires nails, and crafting better tools and weapons depends on it. Conservation is key!
Some enemies can occasionally drop iron. If you find yourself low on this mineral and your mines are empty, defeating enemies like Draugrs is the only way to farm it.
