Unlike Enchanting, with smithing you can choose which stat you want to boost, though it can only be a single stat and is flat point increase rather than a percentage increase.
To start smithing head to the smithy building east of the depot. You will need at least 5 ores gained from Mining and and at least 5 coal pieces, which can be bought from NPC Byron. Using the 5 coal pieces on a furnace will bring it up to heat for 75 seconds which will allow you to use the 5 ores on the furnace and convert it into its metal bar.
Once you have enough metal bars you can start upgrading your equipment. Place the piece you want to upgrade on the alter next to the anvil and “use” the anvil. A prompt will appear asking which bar you want to use depending on what bars you have enough of in your inventory.
After selection which bar you want to use you will be asked how many of them you want to use. Using more bars will give a higher tier in that metals smithed skill and therefore more skill points. Each tier needs a further 10 bars.
Next you will be asked what trait item you want to use. The items that you have enough of in your inventory will be named and followed by what trait they will give. This determines what skill will be used on the item. A full list of items used for each trait is below.
After choosing what trait item you will use, if you have any flux associated with the metal you originally picked you will be asked if you want to use it. Flux’s can be purchased from NPC Byron. Smithing starts with a 50% chance of success and can be increased by using different amounts of flux and by increasing your smithing skill. On failure the smithing ingredients are lost but the equipment remains unchanged.
A final prompt will ask you to confirm you want to use all the materials you selected and tell you your chance of success. If you select ‘yes’ then the materials will be lost and, if successful, your item will give the new stats you smithed.
