Reports from the frontlines indicate that it is not only burly warriors and pointy rogues that enjoy a well-made weapon!

Demand for lighter, scholar-friendly weapons increases daily!

At the most recent conference for Metalcrafters, held as usual in the spacious city of Oggok, the best in the business collaborated with professional magic-users and wound-menders to set about finding a way to heed this call.

Here, now, the fruits of their labor:

For a light, well-made copper hammer or dagger, make as usual with small refined ingots but add also a lapis lazuli and a blue sliver from an elemental.

Silver weapons are similar, using small refined ingots, a bloodstone, and an elemental warm peddle.

For dalium, no ingot refining technique exists, so merely use small ingots, a sharp spine from an elemental, and a pearl. Don't forget the tempering! It's still dalium, after all.

Mithril binds well with topaz and a jagged fork also culled from an elemental. Use small ingots so you get good density of material.

If an even stronger weapon is desired, we can use ghostmetal and warpmetal as usual, small ingots of course, with peridot. Unfortunately, the heavy elemental brick you will need will render warpmetal too malleable to sharpen. We recommend using ghostmetal if you need something sharper, but warpmetal still makes great blunt objects. Again, don't forget the tempering.

The strongest weapons would be made of pure deepmetal, but its propensity for rejecting magical interference made binding the flaming elemental aura to the weapon rather difficult. At last, a solution was reached when it was discovered that alloying the metal with a twisted ingot allowed the included ruby to properly act as a focus. Use a small ingot for the deepmetal, but any size twisted ingot will do! Researchers suspect the interdimensional properties of the metal allow it to maintain proper alloy ratios regardless of volume.

Good luck and happy smithing!
