Minecraft Legends might be an action RPG but collecting resources like Gold is still a major in-game task for players. In this guide, we’ll take a look at the best ways to collect Gold in Minecraft Legends and use it for strengthening your army.

Gold is a very important resource in Minecraft Legends like Diamonds and unfortunately, you cannot ask your Allays to collect it for you. Hence, preparing your mount and exploring the open world yourself is the only way to get Gold.

Having said that, there are some ways to make resource farming in Minecraft Legends efficient. Every resource has fixed spawn locations and once you identify them, there’s no need to roam around aimlessly.

On that note, here’s a guide on how to find Gold in Minecraft Legends.

How to collect Gold in Minecraft Legends

You can get Gold in Minecraft Legends by attacking piglins and destroying the gold mines surrounding their bases. Open your map and look for piglin bases called The Horde of the Spore marked with a Nether Portal icon.

Once you reach the piglin base, look for Gold mines on its outskirts and deploy mobs like Cobblestone Golems that can break structures quickly. Breaking a Gold mine drops 10 Gold on the ground that you can collect instantly.

Another thing to keep in mind is that destroying the Nether Portal usually located at the center will break all nearby structures such as mines and you’ll have limited time to collect everything. To avoid this hassle, we recommend clearing the outskirts first and then taking on the piglins for more Gold.

Two more secondary sources of Gold in the game are piglin chests and piglin themselves. The chests appear after you’ve destroyed a piglin base and some piglins might drop Gold randomly when killed.
