would a shiny gold nugget fall under it's own thing or would it still be under gold nuggets? --Legeres 21:58, 13 June 2009 (UTC)

I'd say under its own "shiny gold nugget" Hithrael 03:56, 14 June 2009 (UTC)


HE 2010 Metal Desriptions

I see there are some already put up, but am also putting the ones noted by Abasha, because they are a little more concise, incase this information is needed later since I'm of the opinion the page looks messy now with all the apps.

This is an alloy that boasts a deep purple coloration, low malleability, and ductility. It's denser than steel and rather difficult to find.

Haralun

Meaning 'black rock' in gamgweth, this is a very dense metal, dark metal typically used in heavier blunt weapons where weight is an asset.

Audrualm

This is a bluish-grey metal that has a rather unremarkable look but an ability to give edges an uncanny razor-sharp edge or point, though it's typically too rare for larger weapons. Use in jewelry is considered an ostensious waste because it has an unremarkable look.

Orichalcum

A reddish gold metal that's about the softness of platinum. Typically used in jewelry. It's too soft to hold an edge, but is often used to make filigree for weapons as it holds enchantments well.

Darkstone

This blackish metal is ideal for weapons and armor, and hardens to almost a stone-like consistency when worked into weapons or armor. Sometimes sold as 'dark steel' to minimize association with Dirge, its true name is beginning to gain popularity again.
I agree, the apps are terrible and it's not the place for it. However, we're still figuring out what's going to happen with the "Trader's Scale" and new metals, so maybe we need a place to store that information for the time being? I'd say not here. I am going to copy Niello over though, as I just wrote the tiny blurb that was there based on outside knowledge. - Hrodberacht 03:05, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
