{{Infobox item
| name = Copper Ingot

'''Copper Ingot''' is a low-tier crafting material created by smelting [[Copper Ore]] and [[Coal]] at any furnace. Copper Ingots are used to forge basic tools — the first weapons and gathering equipment new players craft after collecting starter gear.

Copper Ingots represent the entry point into the crafting system and the beginning of gear progression.

== Smelting ==
Copper Ore is smelted into Copper Ingots at any furnace (Frostmere or Dunes West). No Smithing level required to smelt.

{| class="wikitable"
! Input
! Output
! XP
! Time
|-
| 60 [[Copper Ore]] + 60 [[Coal]]
| 10 Copper Ingot
| 220 XP
| Instant
|}

Each smelt yields 10 ingots instantly. No cooldown between smelts.

== Uses ==
Copper Ingots are used exclusively for low-tier tool crafting:

{| class="wikitable"
! Item
! Ingots required
! Smithing req
! Notes
|-
| [[Copper Sword]]
| 250
| 0
| Starter melee weapon — 20 base damage
|-
| [[Copper Axe]]
| 250
| 0
| Starter gathering tool — 5% speed bonus
|-
| [[Copper Pickaxe]]
| 250
| 0
| Starter mining tool — 5% speed bonus
|}

Copper gear has no armor tier — armor progression begins at [[Iron Ingot|Iron]].

== Crafting Progression ==
Copper Ingots are the lowest tier in the crafting hierarchy:

{| class="wikitable"
! Tier
! Ingot
! Smelting cost
! Tool Smithing req
! Armor Smithing req
! Speed bonus
|-
| Low
| '''Copper Ingot'''
| '''60 Copper Ore + 60 Coal'''
| '''0–7'''
| '''N/A'''
| '''+5%'''
|-
| Mid
| [[Iron Ingot]]
| 60 Iron Ore + 60 Coal
| 10–17
| 14–20
| +10%
|-
| High
| [[Silver Ingot]]
| 60 Silver Ore + 60 Coal
| 20–27
| 24–30
| +15%
|}

Copper tools are the fastest to craft and provide the slowest boost. They're a stepping stone toward better gear.

== Sourcing Copper Ore ==
To create Copper Ingots, you need [[Copper Ore]]:

{| class="wikitable"
! Location
! Requirement
! Notes
|-
| [[Wilderness]]
| None (0)
| Primary gathering location (no level gate)
|-
| [[Frostmere]]
| None (0)
| Secondary location; cold biome
|}

Copper Ore is the only ore with no Mining level requirement. You can gather it immediately after reaching the [[Wilderness]].

== Repair Costs ==
Copper tools can be repaired at any blacksmith (Grimjaw in Frostmere, Harun in Dunes West):

{| class="wikitable"
! Repair scenario
! Ingot cost
! Notes
|-
| 50% durability loss
| ~60% of craft cost (scaled)
| Cost scales to damage taken
|-
| 100% durability loss (broken)
| Full craft cost
| Repair first before trading/selling
|}

Minimum repair cost is 1 ingot. Damaged gear cannot be traded or listed on the marketplace — you must repair it first.

== Stack Size ==
Copper Ingots stack up to **10,000** in a single inventory slot. Early-game players can craft large batches without inventory issues.

== Progression Path ==
Copper Ingots mark the beginning of the crafting journey:

1. **Gather Copper Ore** (no level requirement)
2. **Smelt into Copper Ingots** (no Smithing requirement)
3. **Craft Copper tools** (Smithing 0–7)
4. **Progress to Iron Ore** (Mining 5)
5. **Eventually reach Silver Ore** (Mining 20)

Most players spend a brief time with Copper gear before upgrading to Iron.
