Editing Smithing (section)

== Smithing ==

'''Smithing''' is a processing [[Skills|skill]] that smelts [[Mining|ore]] into ingots and forges metal into weapons, armour and tools. It advances through a tier ladder — Stone, Flint, Copper, Bronze, Iron, Silver/Gold, Crystal and Obsidian — with each tier giving stronger gear. Smithing also produces metal [[Taming|barding]] for tamed [[Creatures]] and hafts many tools using [[Logging|logs]]. Each recipe consumes ore, ingots or other materials and produces a finished item.

Late-game, studied '''[[Blueprints]]''' add forge recipes here (weapons, the shield, and barding) — stat-rolling gear that is the strongest you can make yourself.
