How to Melt Magic Items and Cast Runes in the Smeltery

The Tinkers' smeltery can process magical components, turning spell items, creatures, and metals into runes and essences.

Melting Magic in the Smeltery

Rather than discarding surplus magic loot, feed it directly into your smeltery setup:

1. Heat the smeltery using standard fuel.

2. Place unwanted spell scrolls, magical mobs, or modded metals into the smeltery chamber.

3. Allow the structure to melt them down into their liquid counterparts, which include molten metals, magical inks, and liquefied runes.

Pouring Cheaper Runes and Essences

Once your magical liquids are melted inside the smeltery, redirect them through your faucets:

1. Position a casting table or casting basin beneath a smeltery faucet.

2. Pour the molten magic into casting molds to create cheaper runes compared to standard crafting methods, or pour them out as consumable magic essences.

3. Speed up the cooling cycle by casting the utility spell Freeze.
