Ice is one of the materials players will need to craft some of Hytale’s most powerful weapons , so gathering it early will make life easier for those who like to stock up on items. A sufficient supply of this resource will also allow you to construct certain structures that would otherwise be impossible. Furthermore, ice has its own interesting physics: it can be used to slide and create slides.
If players want to know where to find this valuable resource, this is the place to go. This guide contains all the information they need to mine ice and blue ice (a variety of this material) in Hytale.
Where to find ice in Hytale
Ice can be primarily found in the Tundra biome (or Snowy Mountains biome) in Hytale, but it can be tricky to spot, especially due to the snow, which can be confusing as ice and snow blocks look very similar.
Typically, if players find white blocks near bodies of water, especially on the coast (fjords, rivers, and even floating icebergs), then that will be ice .
Collecting enough ice to craft, for example, the Totem of Slowing (one of the game’s magical weapons) is a separate task. The tundra biome is a dangerous place, teeming with monsters like the snow leopard and savages (humanoids influenced by the energy of the Void).
The easiest way to obtain ice is to stick to the coast and avoid going inland or into the mountains. Ice can be collected along rivers and fjords, so there’s no need to risk premature death (especially if players are exploring the area with low-level gear).
Accordingly, players can also find blue ice, which differs from snow by its light blue hue. It can be found embedded between regular ice blocks. It can also surround blue crystals —another important farming resource in the tundra.
Players will need 40 ice blocks to craft the Totem of Slowness . Ice is also needed to craft some food recipes.
