Steel in adventure mode?
« on: December 25, 2011, 05:53:55 am »

Is there steel in adventure mode? If yes, is it on mods or not? Where to find it? I have been playing really long on adventure mode now but I couldn't find any steel, just iron.

dwarf bandits or kobolds can have steel.
if you can find them then A:raid a fort B: do some moding

The only races I have in my DF adventure mode is human, goblin and kobold. None of them ever had steel items so I couldn't get any, but I guess you can't have steel armor without modding then?

Problem is, there's no elf/dwarf/goblin areas in adventure mode right now, so the only elves/dwarves/goblins you'll see are in bandit camps on rare occasions. Dwarves are the only race that can make steel right now. Thus, there's not really anywhere to get steel weapons reliably. Sometimes a night creature will kill a dwarf in worldgen, and if he had steel armor on, it will be in the lair... but that armor is too small to be worn by a human. Weapons are still good, though. As far as I know, lairs are the only place you'll find any steel equips (excluding player-made fortresses).

Completely unrelated, your pic doesn't work because you linked the page with all the other stuff instead of just the pic. Rightclick the picture on that page, choose Open image in new tab or something similar, rightclick it there, and then choose Copy image URL. Then you can paste that link into your avatar, and it should work.

Funny moment, I bump into some Dwarf bandits, kill them with ease, and a Dwarf hammerlord proceeds to smash his way through 3 of my peasants. I ninja my way behind him and chop his head off >:£

Oh and yes, he did have steel armour, so it's possible.
