Lunarchie Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 Hi, like all you I've started a while ago playing RuneScape again, because I need a game to create the social feeling illusion. Anyway, I had a question regarding forging as you might have read from the topic title. You see; I'm a planner, I like everything organized even though my room is a mess sometimes (cloths and stuff). I was scouting out tip.it when I found at this little passage: What I am wondering is: When I use bronze bars to make an item (Let's say at doric's place) and I decide to make 1 item with more then 1 bronze bar: does this mean the 18.7 exp turns into 18.6 + 9.35 = 27,95 exp for using 2 bronze bars in this case to make only one item? Because I'm just a beginner and I just want to know what's the best thing to do with forging, so to just use 1 ore at a time all the time...I mean...what do you people do? Maybe I'm just worrying over nothing, but I really am an annoying perfectionist. It has more to do with the fact that I want to have my mining at 11 (which I have now) and my smithing (& Melting ofcourse) at 11 as well so I can eventually exactly come at level 15 with both so I DON'T have to mine more and my levels aren't equal anymore (if that makes any sense, at ALL). Of course I can also buy Tin ore and Copper Ore, but I don't prefer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim_Tam_Tan_Tien Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 I think the exp means the absolute minimum that smithing and smelting can give. Such a, smelting the bar makes 9xp persay, then smithing a dagger ( lowest lvl item only costing 1 bar ) gives another 9xp, making it a minimum of 18xp if you smelt and smith.

Lunarchie Posted November 2, 2008 Author Share Posted November 2, 2008 So basically what you're saying is that something that costs 2 bars to make gives 9+9+9 exp? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutchphoenix Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 The 18.7 xp is the xp per bar used. So if you make like a bronze scimitar (2 bars) you get double xp: 37.4 xp per scimitar you make. (if you smelt your own bars that is) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aslan Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 Check the Smithing skill guide from TIP.The smelting xp is when you turn the ores into bars.Add that to the xp you get from making an item from the list.It is easier this way. OT:smith+smelt is turning ores into bars +lvl1 items(only 1 bar). For the rest,that use 2+ bars, manually check the xp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if you get like 30 xp for 1 bar, you get 60 xp for 2 bars, 90 xp for 3 bars and 150 xp for 5 bars used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course I can also buy Tin ore and Copper Ore, but I don't prefer. guys this is not complex... the 9.35 is simply dividing the total xp by number of ores needed to make the bar (copper and tin=2 18.7/2=9.35) its around 12.5 xp to smith each bronze bar and 6.2xp for smelting it you use 2 ores and they are just showing how much xp you get per ore used ok its not 9+9+9 or anything like that 1100 total achieved 03/02/09 880thousandth to reach it :P1200 total achieved 29/09/11 1.23millionth to reach it :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunarchie Posted November 2, 2008 Author Share Posted November 2, 2008 (if you smelt your own bars that is) What do you mean by that? What would NOT be of your own? For the rest: thanks alot guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dutchphoenix Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 Am I wrong or not? Because I'm confused now lol. Is it like: You mine your own ores and smelt and get 9.7 xp and then smith it and get the rest of the xp? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awesome400 Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 ok this is how smithing/smelting works Bronze Bar you mine 1 copper and 1 tin you use them on a furnace you receive 6.2xp you then use the bar to make a dagger you recieve 12.5xp 6.2+12.5=18.7 etc etc (the 9.35 is just totalxp/# of ores required to make the bar) 1100 total achieved 03/02/09 880thousandth to reach it :P1200 total achieved 29/09/11 1.23millionth to reach it :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
