How to create Small, Large Bricks & Pieces of High Quality Ore

Small and Large High Quality Ore (both the Bricks and Pieces) are created by taking a Fine Steel Weapon and a Water Flask, placing both in a Forge and hitting combine. The hardest part of this recipe is getting your hand on all of the Fine Steel Weapons you need to make the ore.

If you don't know any good locations to farm Fine Steel Weapons I would recommend that you check out the Everfrost Giants as well as the Rathe Mountains Hill Giants. This goes for people playing on Live servers too, not just TLPs. Though, people on Live may only want to visit Rathe Mountains as there are tons more giants there than Everfrost.

First up, let's look at some of the Fine Steel Weapon combines you can do to acquire this ore. Not every Fine Steel Weapon is mentioned below; there's actually more Fine Steel Weapons that aren't shown on this page than are.

Now the question becomes how do we make the Small Brick of High Quality Ores and Small Piece of High Quality Ores into Large Bricks and Large Pieces. It's simple, more Smithing subcombines! The trivial for all of the recipes mentioned below is usually 27. Chances are your Smithing is already higher than it needs to be in order to make these recipes.

This combine isn't worth doing unless you actually need the Small Pieces of High Quality Ore. Keep this recipe in mind though, if you ever need to downgrade one of the Large Bricks of High Quality Ore you can do so by combining the Ore with a Smithing Chisel

Any Small Pieces of High Quality Ore that you get from salvaging the Fine Steel Weapons you should combine in a Forge with this recipe so that you can turn them into Small Bricks of High Quality Ore.
