It is also one of the least valuable of the {{L|metal}}s. {{L|Weapon}}s made out of it do mediocre damage (66%) compared to {{L|Iron}}; similarly, {{L|armor}}s 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 weapons are the next best training weapons if you don't have access to {{L|silver}} and can't trade with the {{L|elves}} for {{L|wood}}en weapons. |
