20 tin for 1 bar

[NF_Crenos]

This cannot be correct, right? Even with a bronze pickaxe that's gonna take forever. Might as well go into a fast-travel tower and just break every pot you come across, exit game, repeat.

Seems like an error in programming. All the other recipes give 10.

[Pluto]

agreed its probs a error but it don't matter so much as it has very limited use.

[Hippopothomas]

the step after it gives more bars.

ARE you mad. It has a huge use for bronze and making chests. It most definitely needs to be fixed

move to iron, you dont have to stay long in bronze and tin, also if you find a good tin spot you can mine around 750 tin per session.

Still you need 14 copper but 60 tin for 10 bronze bars, which feels far out of balance. 750 tin from one spot may sound somewhat fine, but it still requires quite alot of time to farm them and the outcome is far of the line compared to the other smelter recipies.

with that being said, this is something that popped up a brunch of times, therefore I hope the devs are already aware of this and fix it soon.

i mined more than most players on steam. :D doesnt take that long. few hours of mining for 6 players and its done for the entire run.
but yes the numbers dont make sense to some people.

It's obviously a typo. All the recipes give 10 bars except that one. They forgot a 0.

just skip crafting gear. youre wasteing your time. dropped gear is superior and looks cooler. only thing worth crafting are tools.

[Dilligaf]

it only takes 1 tin bar for 10 bronze. forget how many copper bars that may be 1 also
. 20 ore for 1 tin bar sounds worse than it actually works out to be.

[Galadhlinn]

I am in agreement that tin requirement seems a little off (not a lot) and will likely get a tweak.
In the meantime, if you go to Nomad Highlands spire/tower and smash every vase/container on the way up and check every bench on each level, you will come away with 4-8 bronze bars, 2-4 copper bars, and 4-6 tin bars. And it's repeatable. I think repeating the towers is fun and challenging.

3 tin bars it takes. 3 Tin bars, and 7 Copper bars, for 10 bronze bars, = 60 tin ore, 14 copper ore, for 10 bronze bars.

And while that may be true; RNGesus hates some of us. So finding a full set, or at least the pieces of the sets, of whatever we want, isn't all that 'easy'. Making crafting the more viable and reliable option.

Well some of us play solo. We don't got 5 friends that want to hop in the same world at the same time and 'strip mine' an area, in a few hours. So 20 ore for 1 bar seems just a bit unreasonable.

Yeah, it's correct. When you find tin you can mine a lot of it, and tin bars + copper bars make more bronze bars so you're confused on the conversion for making bronze. Just do it and have the reaction after you've actually worked with bronze. You're doing the knee-jerk thing without even progressing far enough to see how it works.

This is terrible advice but I suppose if you want to do the save scum/farming routine that's up to you. Cheating/cheesing only affects your enjoyment in this non-PVP game.

[Mile]

Feels like it suppose to be 10 but coded wrong.

[Zero]

I don't even mine for tin anymore. I just farm the appropriate towers over and over for the loot in vases. Just pop a fireball in a dense population of vases and spam E.

Faster to get tin that way than to mine it lmao (making tin bars yourself is currently a farce), plus you get other stuff too, and sometimes decent chests. Just exit to menu and reload to reset everything and farm as much as you want.

I like the bronze tiles, so it makes tin REALLY expensive for me haha
