Ironwood is a high-tier resource needed to make high-tier weapons and tools in the later stages of Return to Moria.

Getting your hands on it as soon as possible can help you get started making new weapons to make you even stronger in the mines.

In this survival guide, we’ll show you where to get ironwood in Return to Moria.

What Is Ironwood

Ironwood is a type of wood in Return to Moria.

Considering that it’s a required resource to make a lot of Tier IV weapons and tools, you can consider it a Tier IV resource.

It’s rare and can only be found in Dwarrowdelf.

Its design doesn’t look too different from the other types of wood, so make sure you keep your eye out for the name, so you don’t miss out on picking it up.

Where To Get Ironwood

Ironwood is extremely rare, but there are a few ways you can get it.

The first is to destroy furniture found within Dwarrowdelf.

It will break into wood scraps and ironwood can also sometimes drop.

You can also make an enchanted axe with emeralds to increase the chances of dropping ironwood when cutting down trees.

That means you may need to return to the Lower Deeps or the Elven Quarter to cut down trees and mushroom trees.

You’ll have wood scraps, Elven Wood, Ubasam Wood, and also Ironwood drop by using the axe.

To get ironwood in bulk, keep an eye out for abandoned buildings.

Some of them have ironwood on pallets just lying around.

These pallets can even spawn on second or third stories, so make sure you check everywhere for them.

What Does Ironwood Unlock

The first time you pick up Ironwood, you’ll unlock a number of new recipes.

These recipes include:

• Khazad Arrows
• Khazad Bolts
• Gristmill
• Spinning Wheel

You’ll also unlock a pallet that you can use to store large quantities of ironwood.
