Skill and improvement




A steel lump is the result from combining a 2:1 ratio of iron lump and a glowing hot piece of charcoal to harden the metal. That means for 0.50kg of charcoal you need about 1.00kg of iron lump.

Using steel to create items that can be created with other materials has no effect other than what type of metal you need to improve it.

Notes

  • The iron can be combined into one lump as only the amount required is used. However, this will only produce 0.4kg lumps while still using up the charcoal.
  • The quality of the charcoal affects the success chance as well as the likelihood the lump will be high quality. It would be wise to not risk wasting high quality iron on poor charcoal unless you have a lot of it.
  • The quality of the iron lump caps the quality of the steel lump.
  • Only the charcoal needs to be glowing hot.
