Where to farm Tin Ore in Once Human

UPDATE: We have added some information to this page about other areas you can farm Tin Ore, and a Deviant that you can capture who will farm the ore for you!

Once Human boasts a huge, open-world map filled with all manner of dangers for you and your fellow Meta-Humans to try and survive. Whether you’re playing in PvE or PvP, you’re going to need an abundance of varying resources — such as Tin Ore — to help you craft new gear, impressive bases, and more.

Tin Ore is necessary for crafting Bronze Ingots, which you will need lots of, and fortunately can be found quite quickly after first setting foot in the New World. You will, however, need to complete some Tasks assigned to you and level up a little bit first. To help you out, here’s where to farm Tin Ore in Once Human.

How to get Tin Ore in Once Human

Like many survival games before it, getting your hands on Tin Ore in Once Human isn’t something you can do right away, and requires a little bit of progress first.

While Tin Ore nodes can be easily found surrounding the Meyer’s Market area of the map in the Broken Delta region, you will need to have crafted a Copper Pickaxe to be able to farm it. You’ll also want to be Level 10 or above, ideally, so that you’re prepared enough for the enemies in the area.

To craft a Copper Pickaxe at your Supplies Workbench, you’ll need to have unlocked the Memetics for Smelting Essentials and Copper Pickaxes; these will cost you 4 Meme Points altogether.

Once that’s done, you can craft a Copper Pickaxe at your Supplies Workbench using the following:

• 5 Logs
• 7 Copper Ingots
• 2 Raw Hides

Then, all you need to do is take a short trip to Meyer’s Market. This is easily done once you have your hands on Mary’s Motorcycle, and you’ll also be told to go to the area as a part of the Level 14 Task, Murmurs in the Forest, which follows the Level 6 Task, Welcome Back.

Once in the Broken Delta area and approaching Meyer’s Market, look for Tin Ore nodes. They resemble Silver Ore and Copper Ore nodes as big rocks with deposits sticking out of them, though tin will look a lot like silver.

That said, after you reach Once Human's second region of Broken Delta, Tin Ore is found across most of the rest of the map from this point onwards. So, even as you progress into the later regions of Red Sands and Chalk Peak, you'll still find yourself running into plenty of Tin Ore.

Additionally, the first time you mine Tin Ore, you'll receive the Digby Boy Deviant. If you pop this adorable guy inside an Isolated Securement Unit at your base, he'll quickly get to work farming nearby ore for you. Check in with his unit regularly to retrieve what he has collected, which is usually plenty of Tin, Copper, and Iron depending on where your base is located.
