How to refine ore?

Post by Eyestrain » Sun Dec 31, 2017 3:19 pm

Hi everyone!

I’m new to the server and enjoying it immensely. I’ve tried to find and Google the answer to this question to no avail. Could somebody please point me to where the answer is or explain to me how to do it. Basically I’m playing a fighter and I want to craft a set of heavy Iron armour. I have iron ore and coal ore. The recipe says I need iron ingots. How do I get or make these? Thanks in advance for any help.

You first craft your iron ore into iron ingots.

Ingots are under the "Miscellaneous small" section of the forging menu.

Ok this is getting a little frustrating. I tried the granite forge in the Nomad. I put a chunk of iron ore in. First time round it allowed me to click through to the miscellaneous small. I clicked on iron ingot and nothing happened. I tried again and now the ingot menu refuses to open at all doh. Probably something silly I’m missing on my part but yeah, won’t work.

you need Coal and Iron...not Granite....Granite is for art. Also the system can be buggy, the forge may have temp broke.

You'll need 2 Rock Chunk (Iron) and 4 Coal for that recipe. It doesn't matter whether it's a granite forge or otherwise, as long as it's a forge.
