Copper is a metal used in a large number of alloys, among them Bronze, which is almost as good as iron (but not quite) for smithing weapons and armor. Pure copper is one of the least valuable of the metals and a sub-par arms material. Because of this, it may be best to use copper to smelt more valuable alloys.

Copper is smelted (at a Smelter) from Native copper, Malachite, or Tetrahedrite.

Copper may be combined with other metals at a smelter. The following is a list of recipes involving copper:

• Brass = Copper + Zinc
• Bronze = Copper + Tin
• Billon = Copper + Silver
• Fine pewter = Copper + 3x Tin
• Trifle pewter = Copper + 2x Tin
• Lay pewter = Copper + 2x Tin + Lead
• Nickel silver = Copper + 2x Nickel + Zinc
• Black bronze = 2x Copper + Silver + Gold
• Sterling silver = Copper + 3x Silver
• Rose gold = Copper + 3x Gold
• Bismuth bronze = 2x Copper + Tin + Bismuth

• 

  A copper ingot, coin and rod.
