Creation
One ingot requires 100 units of metal, which is the equivalent of 20 nuggets. Players can create ingots from ore nuggets using two methods: casting or smithed after using a bloomery . All metals or alloys with melting temperatures below 1340°C can be created using the casting mechanic, with the aid of an ingot mold (1340°C is the burning temperature of coke ).
Iron , meteoric iron and steel have melting temperatures above 1340°C and so cannot be cast. Instead, iron and steel ore must be fired in a bloomery and then smithed on an anvil or helve hammer to create their ingots. Copper and gold ingots can also be crafted using bloomery.
Looting
Ingots may also be found in chests or cracked vessels when exploring ruins .
Usage
Ingots are used in smithing . When heated using a forge and worked on an anvil , ingots are used to create:
- All metal Tools and Weapons
- Components for metal armor
- Components for shields
- Plates for Lanterns and Torch Holders
Ingots that can be cast can be re-melted, by first combining them with a chisel in the crafting grid, then placing the resulting metal bits in a crucible .
Storage
Ingots may be placed in a stack of up to 64 ingots of one type of metal.
