So in Arena mode you can see that there are a bunch of new metals like Shining Metal or Booming Metal or Clear Blue Metal, that appear to have no entries in the raws. Anyone have any idea what that's about?

Nope but I'm testing the out on different armor types.

These are randomly generated metals, as it turns out. Apparently connected with the gods, as they have a [DIVINE] tag and spheres. There's also randomly generated armour, weapons and clothing created by gods.

question is "are these metals also different statwise?"

Are these able to be found in game in adventure mode? That would be awesome.

New option in world gen about disabling said divine items. And i thought it was just adamantium at first till i read this.

Looking into the uncompressed saves again, I found some very interesting things about these new metals...
(spoilered, because I think this is a new kind of HFS...)

The new metals are used as weapon and armour materials by randomly generated creatures connected with a certain god. They form randomly generated entities called "HF Guardian Entities".  The only info I can get is that they guard certain sites.

Time to explore as an adventurer to find out about this.

Apparently dwarves can have a preference for these new metals. I have dwarf who really likes "searing metal" in my currently doomed embark.
