The type of item being melted (and its [[stack]] size) determines how many bars of metal will be recovered. Melting objects generally nets you fewer bars of metal than were required to make them, although for some objects this loss is much greater than for others. Some metal items are otherwise refuse, so melting is a distinct option. An entire suit of chain armor, including shield, consumes 7 bars to make - melted it yields only 3.3. | The type of item being melted (and its [[stack]] size) determines how many bars of metal will be recovered.
