That is a good list I would add one more in there though and that is Ryll Amophorous(sp?) Gemstone. This is used in several components and fits into the rare resource category with Diatium, Irolunn and Ostrine.

As a player that has never crafted so much as a stone knife, I continue to blindly stumble my way through figuring out what metal and mineral resources weaponsmiths want and use the most. So I ask you to dash off a quick list of those resources you consume in the largest quantity. And if you're feeling especially helpful, it would be appreciated if you would note what component or weapon you manufacture with it.

And please post your list of picks even if others havechosen similarly(or say I agree with so-and-so) because getting 8 people saying they use Diatium Copper like crazy means much more than one person saying it and 7 others silently agreeing and going on their way without posting.

I live to serve the Weaponsmith community. Thanks for your kind assistance in this matter.

1) Copper, irregardless of type. Could call it "flavor of the week" Copper...whatever Copper has the highest Cond/OQ at the time.
2) Steel, irregardless of type. "Flavor of the Week" too.
3) Iron, irregardless of type. "Flavor of the Week".

6) Ostrine Carbonate Ore

10) Doonium Iron

Imho

All advanced power handlers parts (esp. irolunn gas high oq polymer)

Rhodium steel (goes real quick)

Ditanium Steel (t21's 150 each)

Linksteel Aluminum (Laser carbines sell alot as do Rifles each use 50-65)

High Cond/oq Copper (You can never have to much of the servers best, used in every type of gun, although usually 4-16 per gun at most)

I think that's 10 - Ryll imho isnt that bad, 8-4 for the two rifle barrel types? Once you have 30-40k of the best you're set for awhile.

i would have to agree with the above, parts for advanced power handlers is a mainstay in the weaponsmiths diet.

diatium copper

phrik aluminum

ostrine carbonate ore

polymer

irolunn reactive gas

after these any high con / oq copper, steel, iron

The above list is dead on, if anything you always need high con/qual copper, get it and get it by the thousands.

I badly need no. 5,6,7

(diatium copper, irolunn reactive gass and ostrine ore!)

hehe Mem. Since you're on valcyn, get all over that mythra copper. It's only a few meagre points worse oq/con than the months old omni copper.I have a 92% spot on dant I can send you if you need it. We haven't had a really good SR steel shift in a while either (highest has been 955 in the last month or two), or any ostrine ore for that matter.

Kammris iron - Melee Weapons (shock)

Desh - Vibro Units

Plumbum Iron - E11 Weapons, Rep Blasters etc

Titanium Aluminum - Dx weapons

Axidite Iron - Feed Mechs

Alantium Ore - T21 Rifles

Crism Ore - Higher level grenades

Polonium Iron - Flamerthrower, T21

good to know

Since you're on valcyn, get all over that mythra copper.

Like white on rice, baby. I've had 30 heavies sitting on it since the day it spawned.

On Bloodfin some nice duralloy just spawned with an SR-1000! MmMmMm Powa Hamma!

I made a perfect lance just because I could... !


HEHE

my favorite mineral that spawned was the copper that was just on Bria

Conductivity - 1000

OQ - 990

SR - 775

UT - 773

150K of that was nice
