How to Fuse Alloys and Brew Special Materials

Not every high-tier material in Crystalcraft Unlimited generates naturally in cave walls. Once you have gathered a variety of ores from different biomes and dimensions, you can produce stronger alloys, unique gems, and special metals using a Smithing Table and a Brewing Stand.

Fusing Materials at a Smithing Table

Place a vanilla Smithing Table in your workshop to merge separate mined resources into upgraded crafting materials. Instead of only upgrading finished equipment, the Smithing Table lets you fuse different ores, ingots, and gems together into powerful alloys and unique gems.

1. Open the Lexicon Krystallon guidebook and turn to the smithing combinations pages.

2. Locate the alloy or gem you want to create and note the required gems or ingots.

3. Place the listed inputs into the Smithing Table as shown in the guidebook and collect your fused material from the output slot.

Brewing Special Crafting Items

Some advanced materials cannot be smelted in a furnace or fused on a Smithing Table and must be brewed instead. Set up a vanilla Brewing Stand to create specialized items such as Withered Steel and Shadow Diamonds. Consult the brewing recipes pages in the Lexicon Krystallon to verify the exact base items and ingredients, load them into the Brewing Stand, and use the finished materials to craft stronger weapons and armor.
