Copper is a metal used in a large number of alloys. It is also one of the least valuable of the metals. Weapons made out of it do mediocre damage (66%) compared to Iron; similarly, armors have mediocre defense (66%). It may be best to use copper to smelt more valuable alloys rather than making weapons and armors. Of course if you don't have wide access to better metals, copper is still a fine metal to use.

Copper is smelted (at a Smelter)from Copper Nuggets, Malachite, or Tetrahedrite

A common use of copper is minting at a metalsmith's forge, creating coins which value is multiplied by 10^[Verify]. Minted copper coins are then either used in the economy system or used as a trade good when trading with caravans.

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

• Nickel Silver = Copper + 2x Nickel + Zinc
• Bronze = Copper + Tin
• Lay Pewter = Copper + 2x Tin + Lead
• Trifle Pewter = Copper + 2x Tin
• Fine Pewter = Copper + 3x Tin
• Billon = Copper + Silver
• Bismuth Bronze = 2x Copper + Tin + Bismuth
• Sterling Silver = Copper + 3x Silver
• Black Bronze = Copper + Silver
• Rose Gold = Copper + 3x Gold
