There are many resources in Disney Dreamlight Valley that all have a variety of purposes. From cooking to crafting, everything has its use. But some materials are a little more difficult to come by, as they require resources that come from different biomes in Dreamlight Valley. Going beyond the Plaza and the Peaceful Meadow takes some time, but players that go further into the valley will discover all sorts of resources that will help them.

One such material is Iron Ingot. This guide will show Disney Dreamlight Valley players how they can get Iron Ingots, along with what they are used for in Disney Dreamlight Valley.

How to Get Iron Ingots

One thing that Dinsey Dreamlight Valley players should know is that Iron Ingots are in fact not a material that can be gathered. Instead, players will need to craft it with other materials. To craft an Iron Ingot, players will need five Iron Ore and one Coal Ore.

Where to Find Iron Ore

Iron Ore can be found when mining rocks with the pickaxe. As mentioned above, different resources can be gathered in each of the biomes that make up Dreamlight Valley. Iron Ore can only be mined in Forest of Valor, Glade of Trust, Sunlit Plateau, Frosted Heights, and the Forgotten Lands.

At the start, these are all biomes that Disney Dreamlight Valley players will not have access to. After completing the quest to obtain the Orb of Friendship, players will be able to use their hard-earned Dreamlight to destroy the Night Thorns that block the path into other biomes. Players should be aware that some biomes are particularly expensive to open. For example, Glade of Trust requires 5,000 Dreamlight, and Forest of Valor requires 3,000 Dreamlight. Thankfully, Dreamlight is pretty easy to get, so it is just a matter of time before players have enough Dreamlight to open other biomes.

What Are Iron Ingots Used For?

As they are essentially bars of Iron Ore, Iron Ingots could be considered one of the building blocks of the crafting system in Disney Dreamlight Valley. There are many items in the game that require at least a couple of Iron Ingots. For example, Streetlamps require five Iron Ingots. Other items like Benches and Wooden Buckets also require some Iron Ingots as well. There are also many quests in the game that require Iron Ingots.

With that in mind, Disney Dreamlight Players will not regret it if they go out of their way to keep their house inventory stocked up with a bunch of Iron Ingots. It'll save them lots of time and effort later.

Disney Dreamlight Valley is available now on Nintendo Switch, PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
