Smithing

Smithing is a skill through which players may create armour and weapons from ore and metal bars. It is the companion skill of Mining, which helps obtain materials used in Smithing. Ores obtained from Mining are created into metal bars at furnaces, and then hammered into items at anvils. Many of the items you smith are useful in combat, quests, and the training of a number of other skills such as Crafting and Fletching.
