What happened to all the copper and other ores?
So I started a new world with the 1.2 update, and spent several hours mining minerals. From all my mining, not once did I come across any copper, which is supposed to be the most common mineral found in the game. What happened to it?
From the patch notes:
- Your world has a chance to get alternative ore as a replacement for copper, iron, silver, and gold
There's no indication on what it's replaced with in the notes.
Gigazelle has found the following:
- copper = tin
- iron = lead
- silver = tungsten
- gold = platinum
Hardmode ores:
- cobalt = palladium
- mithril = orichalcum
- adamantite = titanium
