Tips

• For information about making steel, see the Metallurgy page.
• Use your lowest quality steel for the creation of items.
• You can sort your steel 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 steel to make or improve. Great Helms use more steel but are far more useful and easier to sell or trade.
