'''Smithing''' turns mined ore into bars at a Furnace, then bars into wearable gear at an Anvil. The short version: mine ore → smelt it into bars → craft the bars into gear. You earn XP twice for every bar: once when it's smelted, again when it's used in crafting.

Only '''Helmets''' reliably turn a profit if you're buying your bars outright: Platebodies, Platelegs, and Swords all lose gold at Bronze/Iron/Steel tier once the cost of the bars is factored in. Once you reach level 30 and unlock Mithril, everything becomes very profitable, especially the [[Mithril Sword]].

Dwarven Pickaxe is listed for Gold and Ebony too since it's currently the best-in-slot pickaxe.

For example, a [[Mithril Sword]] needs 6 Mithril Bars: smelting them gives 6 × 155 = 930 XP, and crafting the sword itself gives another 930 XP, for 1,860 XP total.
For example, an [[Iron Helmet]] is made from 2 [[Iron Plate]]s (themselves smithed from 4 Iron Bars): smelting those 4 bars gives 4 × 30 = 120 XP, smithing them into 2 Iron Plates gives another 2 × 30 = 60 XP, and crafting the finished helmet gives 80 XP more, for 260 XP total across every stage.
 
'''A note on the figures below:''' the Iron/Steel/Mithril Helmet, Platebody, Platelegs, and Weapon recipes above were corrected to match the game's real crafting data (they now go through intermediate Plates/Rods instead of raw bars, and a few Smithing level requirements shifted). The XP/hour and profit/hour figures below predate that correction and haven't been re-measured against the new recipes yet, since that needs real playtesting (travel time, vendor prices for the new intermediate materials) rather than a spreadsheet estimate. Treat the numbers below as outdated for Iron/Steel/Mithril Helmets, Platebodies, Platelegs, and Swords until someone re-runs them.
