Materials
2 forges 7 cauldrons
Place all 7 cauldrons in one forge.
Cauldron #1 - 100 coal Cauldron #2 - 100 iron
Use the remaining cauldrons to sort your steel lumps - ie: 1-10ql 11-20ql etc.. (This just makes it easier when your trying to imp and keeps things nice and tidy
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.
