Adamantine Extraction and a few other things (Round 2 I believe)
« on: November 04, 2014, 04:11:43 pm »

Hey guys, took a break from DF for a while and came back to play with this new version of masterwork (going to have some !FUN! as a hermit this weekend) and started as usual my test fortress on an lonely volcano island (this time in a cold climate with no stagnate ponds since I am so badass  8) ) with Quarry Bushes for water to suture wounds etc.

So far so good, got a decent fortress running and ran into my old problem again... I cannot extract adamantine and cant figure the hell out how to do it. I gave literally all my dwarfs the prayer skill yet noone bothers to go there... did the skill got moved or do I require something else to get adamantine?

Also I cant seem to be able to smelt Cobalite into Cobalt, I tried using the ore Processor yet cant. Not sure but I think Cobalite was the ore of cobalt (the typical blue one which isnt really that blue) and would like to have some cobalt furniture for my dwarfs... so have I done something wrong there aswell?

To get cobalt, you use the crucible, not the regular smelter.  You can also get it by transmuting iron into cobalt at the alchemist's laboratory.

Likes nether horror for their ability to turn people into eldritch horrors. Seriously, what is wrong with that dwarf.

Thanks alot :)

Found the cobalt ore as you said in the crucible, yet still trying to find a way to get my dwarfs to extract the adamantine strands... cause otherwise I have to use... *sigh* Mithril... or *sigh* Titanium or *sigh* setup a trap for Freezers to get their Bifrost...

Edit 1:

Now they started to work after season have changed. Got my adamantine, upgraded the adamantine swords and added mechanisms to the adamantine crossbows (They are now full Auto Crossbows) and now going for animated swords as a simple base defense.

Maybe getting a toxicologist to poison my blades and add runes to some of them, we will see. Anyways, thanks for the help :)
