Assaillir's Smithing Guide

Mining

Do not waste your money on a Mastercrafted Mining Pick. You need the excess ore and skill points anyway - and you will ruin ore well into skill 200 regardless of the pick axe you use. It is only required for Deepmetal.

Edit: If you can survive RSM, move there at skill 220. Mine to ~12 stacks of obsidian (paired with mithril) This will save a lot of time.

Skill Level	Ore	Location	Notes
1 - 80	Iron	Sadri Malath	Leave at skill 80.
80 - 120	Copper, Silver	Blackburrow	Requires ~level 10. Guarded by gnolls. Leave at skill 120.
80 - 120	Copper, Silver	Steamfont Mountains	Guarded by ~level 20 mobs. Leave at skill 120.
120 - 150	Dalium	Western Wastes	Do not mine extra. Leave at skill 150.
150 - 210	Copper, Mithril	Great Divide	Stay here until you have ~10 stacks of copper then move to Faentharc.
150 - 210	Dalium, Mithril	Faentharc Woods	Gaurded by level ~42 Geomathians.
*150 - 210*	Dalium, Mithril	Heartlands Plateau	Can invis in, less yield than Faentharc, but safer.
220 - 235	Iron, Obsidian Ore	Zenn Malath
235 -250	Warpmetal	Sundered Mountains
235 -250	Ghostmetal	Kaladim North	No mobs in the mines. Requires Blackscale, or unsworn to MQ faction.

Iron - Sadri Malath

Mine iron ore until skill level 80. It is very easy to mine - and useful for a very long time.

Copper/Silver - Blackburrow/Steamfont Mountains

You will need a lot of copper, but you do not need a lot of silver. Mine Copper/Silver nodes until your high enough to hit Dalium and do not look back. It is better to wait until you can pair Copper with Mithril in Great Divide

Dalium - Western Wastes

Mine Dalium until you are high enough to mine mithril.

Mithril/Copper - Great Divide

This is more of a copper mine with the upside of Mithril. You will need roughly 10 stacks of copper total. Once you have it, consider moving to Faentharc Woods for Dalium

Mithril/Dalium - Faentharc Woods

This will be your home for a very long time.

Warpmetal and Ghostmetal

This will be your home for a very long time.

Smithing

This skill path focuses on "less time mining" type progression. Many hours of mining is saved at the cost of a few hundred platinum. If that is not an option for you - strike the mastercrafted items in favor for non mastercrafted large items, like Breastplates and legs.

Some combines will require a (1) Sun Forger, or an (2) Underdark Smithing Hammer to start, because of the wide skill gap. Ensure to remove skill modifiers as a combine approaches trivial.
