New World provides you with a large number of resources that you can collect in your free time, and lodestone is one of these resources. You have the option of using these resources to craft new items, as well as some quests that need you to gather specific resources. Lodestone is a rare resource that is quite difficult to get in New World, and it only appears in high-level areas. The second reason why lodestone is rare is that every day, hundreds of players set on an adventure to find them. Players who already know about their location save a lot of time and effort and move to the next quests. Below is the ultimate guide with answers to all your lodestone-related questions.

If you are near a settlement and can find any tier four stonecutter station, you can easily craft lodestone into lodestone bricks. To craft a single lodestone bridge, you need a total of six pieces of lodestone along with sandpaper and two stone bricks. For those who are planning to become a professional stone cutters, they should upgrade their stonecutting skill to level 100, although you can craft lodestone bricks at stonecutting level 50. To get sandpapers, go to any supply containers nearby a landmark. Some town boards and fortress feature lodestone bricks quests from time to time that you can complete to get those extra rewards. If your fort or settlement needs repairs or upgrades, you can use these bricks. A lodestone vein also contains shards of adder stone, chunks of adder stone, and shards of adamant along with lodestone. With the right skills, further, enhance them into void stones and tuning orbs.
