Metal: Difference between revisions

Iron is found as '''limonite''', '''hematite''', and '''magnetite''' chunks and nuggets.

Unlike copper, iron can't be found on the ground. It does appear in rocks and requires a tier 3 (Bronze) [[pickaxe]] to mine. A bronze anvil is also needed to work iron. Due to the high melting temperature, Iron can only be smelted in a [[bloomery]].

Blister Steel is made by carbonizing Iron. It cannot be found naturally in the world, instead the player needs to follow the [[Steel Making]] process to obtain it. Blister Steel is the preliminary stage to obtaining steel, and functions the same way iron blooms do. It cannot be used to make tools, weapons or armor, and only functions as a step between iron and steel.

 

Steel is made by working blister steel on an anvil by hand or with the help of a helve hammer. It can only be worked on an iron anvil. Steel is used to create the highest tier tools and [[armor]].
