| Gathering and refining metals forms the primary economic backbone of early to mid-game progression. Smelting and Smithing operations require different tool setups: smelting ore requires a nearby furnace, whereas smithing refined bars requires both an anvil and an equipped smithing hammer.
| | Unlike armor, jewelry accessories lack skill requirements but feature dedicated sockets to host Power Gems. Dragging a gem onto an equipped ring or amulet sockets the gem, granting permanent attribute upgrades. These gems are primarily acquired through mining or high-level extraction. |
| | |
| == Tools ==
| |
| Hammers and pickaxes cannot be crafted. Players can purchase a basic iron smithing hammer for 10g from Blacksmith Stalls, while high-tier tools like the Dwarven Smithing Hammer must be farmed from bosses. Mining is governed by Mining Power, which is compiled from equipped pickaxes, mining gear, active potions, and socketed Gems.

| == Smelting Pipeline ==
| |
| The smelting and refining pipeline maps raw mined ores to refined metal bars:

| | Bronze Bar || 1 || 1x Copper Ore + 1x Tin Ore || 3s || 15 XP || 4g
| |

| | Gold Bar || 40 || 8x Gold Ore / Gold Dust || 15s || 800 XP || 700g
| |
| |}
| |
| | |
| The speed of smelting and forging scales dynamically with the player's total efficiency. Crafting duration is calculated using the following formulas:
| |
| | |
| <math>\text{TotalEfficiency} = 1.0 + (\text{CraftingSkill} \times 0.01) + (\text{CraftingPower} \times 0.01)</math>
| |
| <math>\text{FinalDuration} = \frac{\text{BaseDuration}}{\text{TotalEfficiency}}</math>
| |
| | |
| == Optimal Methods ==
| |
| At level 40, smelting Gold Dust provides an optimal high-tier refining option, yielding up to 433,548 XP and 379,354 gold per hour. In early levels, players can exploit vendor margins by purchasing raw bronze, iron, or steel bars from stalls, smithing them into helmets, and selling those helmets back to vendor shops to generate consistent early gold:
