Smithing
Smithing is a production skill through which players smelt metal bars from their respective Ores using Heat and sometimes other materials at one of three forges: the City Forge, Dwarven Forge or Volcanic Forge. As the companion skill of Mining, which procures the necessary raw resources, smithing may also yield other byproducts through refinement.

Smithing can be a lucrative way to earn gold, as the supplies are readily or cheaply available in comparison to the high demand for metal bars in the Marketplace.
