How to Get Surtling Cores

Clear Dungeons

Surtling Cores are important early-mid game items required to build the Smelter and Charcoal Kiln. The easiest and the earliest you can get Surtling Cores are from Dungeons scattered all over the map - mostly in Black Forest biomes. However, the contents of dungeons are random hence it is still an unreliable source.

Dropped by Surtlings

The more reliable option for farming Surtling Cores is from the Surtling themselves. These fiery creatures are found in the Swamp biome chilling beside a roaring fire or in the Ashlands. Be careful because these things can hurt!
