Smelting Pot > Bracelet // Solved

Recommended Posts

If we must have Rift rewards that we can't use, could we please be granted the ability to smelt them into lumps?

I did test it before posting.. i was going to ask but i figured i'd test it.

Glowing hot smelting pot Activate, right click glowing hot bracelet.. no option

Bracelet in question was a Fist Bracelet

edit -  someone just said to me `are you aware that items need to be heated up past baseline "glowing hot" before you can smelt them? make sure your forge is hot enough and let them sit for a while longer`

I'll check now, brb 10 mins

yeap, it worked.. i've never used a smelting pot before and Wurmpedia sais nothing about waiting past `glowing` for it to be ready.

  • Low ql smelting pot cap the ql of the lump to 50 ql.
  • Smelting items seems to give lumps equivalent to the ql of the item being smelted.
  • Metal items must be glowing hot to smelt down into a lump.
  • This is not a container, but it's activated and used like a tool.
  • Smelting a rare or better item will turn it into a rare lump.

 

Sorry about that, suggestion thread null

It is on the wiki. If the wording isn't clear, how should it be worded?

I was told the duration of time past `glowing hot` is equal to the time it takes the item to become, `glowing hot`
I'm not sure if that's exact, it was the advice i was given by an expert. 

Before that was spoken, his words were `are you aware that items need to be heated up past baseline "glowing hot" before you can smelt them? make sure your forge is hot enough and let them sit for a while longer`
I hope that helps, I'm not a smithy so i have no observational experience.

*I just double checked the wiki and yet again, questioned both my sanity and my eyes.
i regret to add.. no where does it state, beyond glowing hot or to wait past glowing hot, or to give it more time.

Skill and improvement
Main / Skills / Pottery / Smelting pot

A ceramic smelting pot, used to smelt metal.

This is a pottery smelting pot made from a clay smelting pot in a campfire, forge, or oven. It is used like a tool to smelt down glowing hot metal items, while losing some weight of the original material.

Usage

Activate the smelting pot, right-click the glowing hot metal item, and select Smelt. The material will appear as lump in place of the item.

Cannot be smelted

  • Locks and keys.
  • Enchanted items: you get the message xxx resists smelting.

Notes

  • Low ql smelting pots cap the ql of the lump to 50 ql.
  • Smelting items seems to give lumps equivalent to the ql of the item being smelted.
  • Metal items must be glowing hot to smelt down into a lump.
  • This is not a container, but it's activated and used like a tool.
  • Smelting a rare or better item will turn it into a rare lump.

Ah, I see. I'm not in the game at the moment, I'll test some when I log in if no one else fixes it before.

 

No, it states only "glowing hot" indeed.
