Tips for Training

Start off making buckler shields. Once you have a decent chance at making daggers, start making them. Your ingot supply will last much longer, as you'll only use one ingot per minute if you smelt the daggers back into ingots. To train at higher level, make the best shields you can make. Shields use few ingots and are a good way of training blacksmithing.

The highest skill requirement in all of blacksmithy belongs to the bashing weapon Tetsubo, with 85.0. It's been reported that crafting items of your skill level will increase skill faster than making something below your level. This, along with the long craft timer and ingot usage utilizing less than a tower shield, makes the Tetsubo one of the ideal high-end advancement methods.

Skill Required to Work With Each Ingot Type
