Nethrium?

Post by Ardor »

So, seeing how some people seem to have weapons made from Nethrium, I have a few questions:

1. Where the hell do I get any?
2. Why can't I touch it, even when wearing non-ferrous (cobalt) gauntlets?
3. How can it be forged when people cannot touch it?

All of that is most likely a find out in game. Sorry Ardor.

Well it is not like I can touch the stuff but I do want it. To put it into a furnace with some sunsteel and make nethrisunsteel.

You've seen people wielding it, Ardor. It can be held under the right circumstances.

Also, sunsteel and nethrium are of conflicting natures. I would doubt the two could ever coexist in a single alloy.

I think Ardor was joking about the nethrisunsteel

Even so, it seems as if he'd like to try to experiment with making nethrium alloys. I would be inclined to believe that smelting any metal with celestium or nethrium would be a waste.

Someone please give Ardor some Nethrium to put in a forge.

That is all.

Ardor, I'll sell you some nethrium gauntlets for 200k that you can experiment with.

Well seeing how Celestium has at least one alloy, I figured that Nethrium might have one as well.

But reading Landion's post I feel like one of 2 things would happen:

A: The furnace clows up violently
B: The cold of the Nethroum absorbs the fire and the furnace goes cold

Celestium has an alloy? I though sunsteel was some weird alloy that mimicked celestium all this time...

Not telling you exactly whats in it but yes, sunsteel contains some celestium.
