===Uzetaab's tips and notes===
*Note* that these tips work for all smithing sub catagoriescategories, and some of these principles work for imping of any kind.
:*Always use a [[Forgeforge]], other fire types just dont don't cut it, because they heat things faster. However, they do use more fuel.
:*Get the quality of the forge as high as possible, for 2 reasons.
:*If you fail at something and get a scrap, wait until it is searing or less before you put it back in the forge. If it is still glowing, it will be destroyed
:*Try to build the forge near the water table, then dig a hole until water is revealed, you will use alot a lot of water.
:*When improving several things at once, apply lump to them all togeather together until they all require a different item, then put the lump back and imp them all back to needing lump again. this is because lump needs to be hot, so you want to get through it's use quickly.
:*It's also useful to have 2 lumps for imping, so that you can switch if one cools.
:*As a good general guideline, you can imrove improve items to your skill +10. For example, a hammer uses blacksmithing, if you have 25 skill, you can improve the item to 35ql.
:*Blacksmithing is the most important smithing skill, followed by weaponsmithingweapon smithing. This will cover all your tools and allows you to work faster and better. Black is more important because your hammer and anvils use this and these tools need to be good to make the other smithing skills easier.
:*The better the quality of your tools, the more chance you have to succeed at imping. If your tool is significantly lower quality than the tool you are imping (say 30 points lower), your chance to improve the item is very slim. You will most likely end up lowering the quality of the item though fails & repairs.
::1)Having a large number of tools to imp allows you to gain skill faster with relation to the following reasons
::2)Making the item a small one means that you will use less lump on them.
::3)There is a 'magic' point at which you gain skill fastest, so by hitting this point with many items at once makes your skill jump fastest. By the time you have gone thro through this 'magic' point in all the items, the magic point has moved ahead of you again and you get to hit it all over again.
:*Use a [[cauldron]] to keep lumps/chains/small tools in & you are able to keep more than 100 items in your forge.
