Bronze Ingot

Bronze Ingots are a basic alloy made from copper and tin. They are used to make bronze equipment and Bronze Armour, and other various items.

Upon obtaining bronze, the player gets the achievement "Bronze Award".

Obtaining
Bronze ingots can be crafted on the standard crafting table. Place a copper ingot and a tin ingot into the crafting area in any arrangement to create one bronze ingot.

However, a more efficient way to make bronze is to smelt it in any alloy forge by putting the tin ore or ingot into the alloy slot above the copper ore or ingot, or vice versa. This is more efficient than crafting, as it creates two bronze ingots for every copper/tin pair instead of one - thereby outputting the same number of ingots that went into the process, instead of half as many - and also uses less coal.





Uses
As mentioned above, bronze is most notably used in the crafting of bronze equipment and armour. Bronze items are crafted on the standard crafting table. The stats for bronze are slightly worse than iron.

Other important uses for bronze are crafting the Horn of Command and the Sword of Command. They can also be used to make bronze chandeliers.

As with other ingots, they can be made into a mineral block for more compact storage or decoration.
