'''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]].
