How to find and use Mithril in Hytale

Mithril is the hardest metal ore to find in Hytale, and it’s a relatively endgame resource by current standards. While obtaining it is a challenge in itself, Mithril will allow you to make the best armors and weapons you can get in the game.

This guide will list down the easiest ways of obtaining Mithril, and also highlight how to effectively use it.

Best Mithril locations in Hytale

The best spot to find Mithril is Zone 4, which is arguably one of the most dangerous places in the entire game. You’ll specifically want to search the volcanic regions (or fire zones). Look deeper into the cave walls, and you will find Mithril embedded in them.

You can also find them in underground areas. If you try to extract Mithril in Zone 4, bring the best possible gear. This area has plenty of strong enemies that are hard to take down for beginners. Only approach when you’ve improved your build.

Zone 4 also has a skeleton boss. Defeating him drops different loot, which can also include Mithril. Again, you’ll need proper gear to complete this challenge. You can also find Mithril appearing randomly in the Whisperfront Frontiers biome, but they spawn sporadically. The Whisperfront Frontiers biome is a better source of Cobalt instead.

Important note: I only found Mithril in Creative. I am unsure if it’s available in the Exploration mode as of writing. If you, my reader, have found any in the Exploration mode, please let me know in the comments.

How to use Mithril in Hytale

You’ll first need to have a Furnace to convert the raw Mithril to Mithril Ingots. You’ll also need a fuel source for the process. Once done, you can then use Mithril to make the following items.

• Mithril weapons
• Mithril Helm
• Mithril Cuirass
• Mithril Gauntlets
• Mithril Greaves
• Mithril Shield

While Mithril might be hard to obtain, the armor pieces using them have the best defensive stats. If you’re getting ready for the endgame content, you’re going to need Mithril.

A new Resident Evil Showcase just closed out with a fun announcement that has implications for gamers just about everywhere…but it’s not the demo that everyone was hoping for.

With today’s showcase, gamers everywhere were hoping that Resident Evil Requiem would follow a trend of recent RE games, including Resident Evil 7, Resident Evil Village, and Resident Evil 4 Remake all having playable demos ahead of launch. And with the quality presented in each demo, I’d say that they probably helped generate even more sales for the franchise. I expected RE9 to do the same, but alas, nothing. Not yet, anyway.

During today’s showcase, though, Capcom did show off the first look at gameplay from Leon Kennedy’s action gameplay segments, played in third-person, with a similar vibe to the Resident Evil 4 remake’s gameplay. Leon’s focus is on shooting enemies, but he also has a hatchet he can use to parry melee attacks, and he can even pick up weapons like the enemy’s chainsaw to fight back.

This sort of gameplay is the foil to Grace Ashcroft’s more horror-oriented gameplay in close-quarters, cramped areas, creating a back-and-forth to keep players on their toes. Grace isn’t defenseless, however, as the stream showed off a massive hand cannon she can use to fight back. Both segments can be played in either first-person or third-person, and either character can have a dedicated perspective either way.

Capcom also showed off the return of Ink Ribbons for game saves, some new crafting mechanics, and a new enemy type in the game: zombies that retain some minor characteristics of their past lives. The humanity is lingering within the undead this time, and it makes for some unsettling behaviors.

While the rest of the showcase was full of ads for things like collabs with Porsche and Hamilton watches, many left disappointed that there were no real big reveals or a demo shadowdrop like people were hoping for, myself included.

Still, RE9 is one of my most anticipated titles of 2026. It drops in just over a month on Feb. 27, and I can’t wait to get my grubby hands on it, so check out the showcase from today to tide you over.
