Many items in the game are made of metal including tools, weapons, armor, and lanterns. There are eleven base metals, which can be found in raw [[Ore Deposits|ore]] form. Eight of the base metals have a current use, while three base metals have no current use. Base metals with melting points at or below 1300°C can be melted in a [[crucible]] and cast into [[ingots]] or used to create [[casting#alloys|alloys]] when combined in specific ratios. Metals with melting temperatures higher than 1300°C require a [[bloomery]] to smelt and form ingots. | Many items in the game are made of metal including tools, weapons, armor, and lanterns.

Copper is very likely to be the first metal most players obtain. It can be found in small stone surface deposits that provide smeltable ore nuggets when broken, thus a [[hammer]] isn't needed. Copper nuggets can also be obtained by [[panning]]. A high temperature [[fuel]] such as [[charcoal]] is needed to smelt copper, which can be used to make every type of weapon, tool, and [[armor]] via the [[casting]] and [[smithing]] mechanics. Copper is also used as a component in all alloys, including: brass, tin bronze, black bronze, bismuth bronze, and molybdochalkos. | Copper is very likely to be the first metal most players obtain.

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]]. | |||

Meteoric Iron can be found in meteoric crash sites in the form of Meteoric Iron blocks. Crash sites can be identified as slight indentions in the landscapes, sometimes surrounded by suevite stones and meteoric iron pieces similar to surface metal bits. One crash site can have one or more meteoric iron blocks, the player might need to dig down through a dirt layer to find the surrounding [[Suevite]] rocks around the meteoric iron blocks. | |||
<!--T:18--> | |||
To mine meteoric iron, an iron pickaxe or better is required. Similar to iron, meteoric iron can only be smelted in a [[bloomery]], however it does not produce a bloom and instead results directly in a finished meteoric iron ingot. Two pieces of meteoric iron are needed for every meteoric iron ingot.<br> | |||
Meteoric Iron can only be worked on a tier 3 anvil, meaning you will need at least an iron anvil to be able to work meteoric iron ingots. | |||

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]]. | |||
