Steel is created through a complex process of heating and refining iron ores under very high heat and pressure. Creating steel from iron requires players to have set up a [[Mechanical Power#Crushing|pulverizer]], iron anvil, forge, large quantities of [[charcoal]] or [[coke]], and the creation and use of a new structure called a cementation furnace. This furnace is made from special material known as refractory bricks, made from [[Clay|fire clay]], and a variety of crushed minerals, as well as requiring special iron structures and a granite or andesite stone coffin.

The steelmaking process first produces an intermediate product called blister steel. Much like iron blooms, blister steel needs to be processed manually with a hammer or through use of a helve hammer before it is ready for use.
