Frequently Asked Questions
Is Pinnacle available in World 1?
No. Pinnacle only spawns in The Peak. You'll need to progress your pickaxe tier and unlock the relevant zone before you can farm it.
Can Pinnacle be sold?
Yes, but it's usually not the best use. The forge value of Pinnacle far exceeds its sell price. Save it for crafting unless you have a large surplus.
How does Pinnacle work in a forge recipe?
Include Pinnacle as one of your 3 recipe slots. The Speed Boost trait activates as long as Pinnacle is in the mix.
What's the best world modifier for Pinnacle?
The Peak itself, since that's where the ore drops. Forging in The Peak also applies the local world multiplier bonus, boosting your final stats by roughly 10-20% depending on the tier.
