A handful of dust.

[Boaal]

So I recently decided to try my hand at crafting. I did all the quests from trasok got myself a bunch of iron ore, trained metallurgy and stuck the working with with stock book into my mind slot and off I went.

I put three pieces of ore into the furnace. I got 'you are not sure what will happen'
Somewhere between five and ten minutes later they all turned to dust.

I was told they would turn to molten metal.

Nope.

Can someone enlighten me on what is going wrong here, or is it just broken?

The forum (located outside Yliakum) is not the best place to get taught wisdom from Yliakum. Better let your char ask that someone who has experience with it already.

Brief: No spoilers here.

Crafting is a complicated task. Take the warnings serious! If you don't know what to do with "a stack of 3 ores", better take them away before they burn to dust, and ask people next to the furnace. In game.

Hint: The Knowledge Seekers offer part-time study courses - in crafting too.

Trust me, balancing a book on top of the head is hard task indeed... try to read, it's not a masterpiece, but all you need to know... more or less... is there
