How to Craft and Use Adamantite Gear
Getting the Materials
Adamantite is the backbone of late-game gear. You need Adamantite Ingot as your core material, plus an Abstruse Smithing Template for the higher-tier pieces. Adamantite Nugget is what you get when you break an ingot down, so keep a stack on hand for smaller recipes. Smelt your raw sources into Adamantite Ingot first, then decide what to build.
Crafting the Set
Adamantite Helmet, Adamantite Chestplate, Adamantite Leggings, and Adamantite Boots form the full armor set. Craft each piece at a crafting table using Adamantite Ingot in the standard armor layout. For the Abstruse armor line — Abstruse Googles, Abstruse Coat, Abstruse Pants, and Abstruse Boots — you need the Abstruse Smithing Template combined with your base armor through smithing_transform. Place the template, your Adamantite piece, and the upgrade material in the smithing table.
Building Blocks and Tools
Adamantite Block is a 3x3 of ingots, useful for storage or as a beacon base. Adamantite Bricks come from stonecutting Adamantite Block, and Adamantite Lamp gives you a light source. The Adamantite Magnifying Glass is a utility item worth crafting once you have spare ingots. If you want decorative variants, run Adamantite Block through a stonecutter for bricks and slabs rather than crafting them by hand — it saves material.
