How to Get Runite Ore in RuneScape Dragonwilds
Find Runite Ore in the Scorned Wilderness, learn the required pickaxe, and see how it fits into Rune Bar crafting.
Quick Answer
Mine Runite deposits in the Scorned Wilderness with an Adamant Pickaxe or better. To make Rune Bars, process Runite Ore together with Luminite Ore at a Blast Furnace.
Requirements
- Access to the Scorned Wilderness
- An Adamant Pickaxe or better
Where to Find Runite Ore
Runite Ore comes from Runite deposits in the Scorned Wilderness. The checked sources do not establish a reliable named route, exact coordinates, respawn time, or yield per deposit.
How to Get Runite Ore
- Enter the Scorned Wilderness through your current story progression.
- Bring an Adamant Pickaxe or a stronger pickaxe.
- Look for Runite deposits and mine them for Runite Ore.
- Gather Luminite Ore as well if you plan to make Rune Bars.
Uses
At a Blast Furnace, Runite Ore combines with Luminite Ore to make Rune Bars. Rune Bars are then used across Rune weapons, armor, tools, ammunition, and some tier 8 recipes.
Tips
- Plan to collect both ores during your Scorned Wilderness trips, because Runite Ore alone cannot make Rune Bars.
- Do not rely on unverified coordinate lists or promised node yields; the available official material does not document them.

No. Jagex’s version 1.0 release notes state that an Adamant Pickaxe or better is the minimum.
Where is the best Runite Ore route?
The checked evidence supports the Scorned Wilderness region, but it does not establish a specific best route or exact coordinates.
What else do I need for Rune Bars?
You also need Luminite Ore and access to a Blast Furnace. Exact recipe quantities are omitted until they can be checked in the live Journal.
