Bronze is an alloy of tin and copper. Bronze can be forged into weapons and armor, and has material qualities very close to iron. Bronze can also be used to make furniture and other objects at a metalsmith's forge. Unlike its tin component, bronze is not magma-safe. At a melting point of 11868 °U , it is just shy of the 12000 °U needed to be magma-safe.
Bronze can be made at the Smelter or Magma smelter using one of the following recipes:
- Tin bar + Copper bar = 2 Bronze bars
- Cassiterite + Native copper, Malachite or Tetrahedrite = 8 Bronze bars
Bronze has a value of 5 and uses the same ingredients as fine pewter (which also has a value of 5). If you find yourself short of tin, use this metal to make your objects of art instead of using fine pewter. If you are using ores to smelt Bronze, you can produce 8 bars of weapon-grade metal with one unit of fuel, making it an extremely useful material.
