Windrose Silver Ingot Guide

If you are looking to step up your crafting game with Silver Ingots, you have come to the right place. Silver is a highly valuable mid-game resource used for crafting powerful accessories.

To help you gather it efficiently, here is a complete, factual breakdown of how to unlock silver, the best places to farm it, and what you can craft with it.

The Essential First Step: Unlocking Silver

Before you can find Silver Ingots in the world, you must hit a specific milestone in the main story.

• The Quest: Complete the quest "Revenge is Best Served Cold".
• The Boss: Defeat the main boss, Thomas Richards.
• The Unlock: Defeating him triggers a "Key Discovery" notification. Once this notification appears, Silver Ingots will officially begin spawning and dropping in your game world.

Best Silver Ingot Farming Methods

Once unlocked, there are three primary ways to reliably stock up on silver. Here is a quick reference table to help you choose the best method for your playstyle:

Digging Your Own Grave

Treasure hunting is another incredibly rewarding (and immersive!) way to secure a large amount of silver early on.

"Fifteen Men on a Dead Man's Chest" Quest

This specific quest rewards you with a treasure sketch.

• Follow the map to find an area featuring four skeletons arranged in a square.
• Dig directly in the center of the square.
• Quick Tip: Be ready for a challenge! Digging will trigger an ambush of four Drowned enemies. Successfully defeating them rewards you with 4 Silver Ingots and bonus coins.

Blackbeard Treasure Maps

You can obtain these special maps by defeating heavily armed pirate groups. Following these maps leads you to hidden graves or dirt mounds marked by skeletons. Digging these up yields excellent rewards, including Silver Ingots and rare ship cosmetics.

What to Craft with Silver Ingots

It is highly recommended to save your Silver Ingots rather than selling them to vendors, as they are required for essential base upgrades and character stats:

• The Jewelry Table: Your first major goal should be crafting the Jewelry Table, which requires 3 Silver Ingots, Iron, and Wood.
• Rings and Amulets: Once your Jewelry Table is built, you can use your remaining silver to craft rings and amulets. These accessories provide massive, permanent stat boosts and passive perks that will greatly increase your survivability in higher-level biomes.
