now your ready to start, make 100 steel plate gauntlets (cool and reuse your scrap from failers).
 
−
Imp all the gauntelets to 5 - then 10 - 20 - 30 - 40 - and finally 50. At about 35-40 skill start spamming 20-30 great helms as well - these can fit in the forge with the cauldrons.

−
Use your lowest ql steel for the creation of items, the success rate is greatly reduced but you can cool the scrap and reuse it over and over (placing glowing lumps in a cold cauldron in an unlit forge insta-cools the scrap). Steel being extremely difficult to create this an effective way to use every bit of it.

Main / Skills / Smithing / Armour smithing / Plate armour smithing

Description

Plate armour smithing is the craft of creating and improving plate armour for battle. Skill level influences the success ratio and the quality of the outcome. Plate armour is created using metal lumps. This is also the skill used to create dragon scale armour.

Notes

  • Wearing your plate armour smithing title gives a bonus while improving armour items, including barding.
  • For information about making steel, see the metallurgy page.
  • Use your lowest quality lump for the creation of items.
  • You can sort your lumps either by using containers or by using the "sort by quality" button on the forge's inventory menu. Using a lump more than about 10 quality higher than what you are improving can be wasteful. However using a lump only a few quality higher than the target lowers the chance to succeed, especially at higher qualities.
  • For efficient grinding, gauntlets use the least amount of metal to make or improve. Great Helms use more lump but are far more useful and easier to sell or trade.
