Dwarven Forge

= Dwarven Forge =

The Dwarven Forge is a furnace-type block which has many useful properties. It can smelt up to four items at once; it can be used to make unique alloys; and it is also the only way of smelting Mithril, since this metal cannot be processed in a normal furnace or an Orc Forge. However, only ores and stone-based materials can be smelted in the Dwarven Forge.

Good-aligned players may craft these blocks on a Dwarven Crafting Table, but they are also found in the entrances of Dwarven Mines. Therefore, by looting one from a mine, evil-aligned players may also have access to the forge. The forge itself does not have an alignment requirement.

Usage Shown below is the inventory screen of a Dwarven Forge.

The four slots in the lower row of the top eight slots will accept cobblestone, sand, clay, and any ore block to be smelted. The forge will smelt items from these slotssimultaneously, allowing you to smelt up to four different items at once.

The darker slots above are alloy slots. By combining the right material in one of the alloy slots with an ore in a smelting slot below it, the forge will not smelt the ore, but will instead alloy the two items and produce an entirely different item in the output slot:

Placing coal in an alloy slot with iron ore below it will produce an ingot of Dwarf Steel.

Placing a Quendite Crystal in an alloy slot with iron ore below it will produce an ingot of Galvorn.

Also, placing tin ore in one slot and copper ore in the other will produce two ingots of bronze. This is more efficient than smelting the ores individually and crafting their ingots to produce two bronze ingots.
