How to get a more powerful axe in RuneScape Dragonwilds
The axe is one of the most useful tools to yield in RuneScape Dragonwilds, and you can upgrade from the basic version pretty easily. Obtaining the first axe is quite simple if you follow the basic quests. There isn't much to be done to obtain it, and it's provided to you early. You can use it to chop down trees, complete the starter quests, and increase your skill levels to unlock new spells. Logs are essential part of completing the first set of quests, especially since you'll need to build you shelter. What you should truly aim for is to get the Bronze Axe, which is significantly more powerful and a lot more effective at chopping down trees. This guide will provide you with all the necessary information. How to get the Bronze Axe in RuneScape Dragonwilds Here's a rundown of all the steps involved in obtaining the Bronze Axe. Collect a lot of Copper and Tin Produce Metal Ingots Use the Smithing Forge Collecting Copper and Tin These resources are going to take time if you have just begun playing the game. We already have a detailed guide for both metals, but here's a summary to help you get them. Both resources will require you to travel to Fractured Plains. At this stage, you'll also need a Bone Pickaxe to mine the resources. The Bone Pickaxe can be crafted using animal bones, ash logs, and leather.

Don't try to rush to this area, as the enemies you face here will be harder to navigate around (compared to the threat at the start of the game). To find Copper, look for rocks with gray and orange exteriors. To find Tin, you'll want to mine rocks that have yellow-green splotches on the surface. Both rocks are noticeably bigger than the typical boulders lying on the ground, which is an easy way to spot them.

Then, put the metal inside the furnace and smelt it to produce the ingots. This will provide you with the required materials needed to make the axe. Producing the Axe Screenshot via Destructoid The final piece of the puzzle is to make the Smithing Forge and then use the Smithing Anvil to choose the correct item. The Smithing Forge requires the following ingredients: 24 Stone 8 Clay 4 Stone 10 Fire Rune 8 Vault Shard The Bronze Axe is available under the Tools section of the Smithing Anvil, and it's a massive upgrade over the basic version. It does 20 Damage and 32.5 Block, all thanks to the blade that's made from Bronze. This axe might do the same task, but it does them faster. You'll be able to get much more logs as chopping down trees becomes easier. There are certain trees that provide more wood, but you can't chop it down with the starter axe. The Bronze Axe will have no problem in swiping those big logs down at ease. While you can take your time trying to craft this magnificent tool, make sure to pick up sufficient Tin and Copper when you are at the correct locations.
