If you want to make any progress while playing Lord of The Rings: Return to Moria, you need to find coal pretty quickly. Like most survival crafting games, you'll use this resource to fuel your forge and furnace, allowing you to craft tools and weapons. Coal is also essential for starting a fire when you want to lie down away from camp.
You can find a few pieces of coal in the first camp you come across. Therefore, you will not need to search for this resource immediately. But when you want to start making more than just basic tools, you'll need to start sourcing your own. With this in mind, we will answer the question "how to get coal" while playing Return to Moria.
Return to Moria: How to Find Coal?
There are two ways to obtain coal while playing Return to Moria. The easiest way is to craft it in a Quarry. However, this is also the most expensive way, costing you 25 wood chips for every piece of charcoal you make. Wood chips are abundantly available. You can find them almost everywhere around you, by breaking barrels or other wooden objects or simply picking them up off the ground. Still, it will be necessary to forage a lot for very little coal. It's also worth noting that you can occasionally find coal in storage pallets near dilapidated forges.
However, the better way to get the resource is to mine it, and you only need a simple pickaxe to do so. I found a large coal seam in the Elf Quarter, near the second broken camp and near the wall where you enter the area. Since each world is procedurally generated, it's likely to be somewhere different for you. However, it is quite easy to spot because it has black and orange edges. If you don't know what to look for, you can look at the screenshot above.
For reference, the coal seam pictured gave me about 60 lumps of coal. So it's a much more efficient way to get this material. And this means you won't have to waste your wood chips unnecessarily.
