Learn how to craft Steel Bars in Conan Exiles! This guide breaks down making Iron Bars, Steelfire, and the final Steel Bar recipe using a Furnace and Firebowl Cauldron.
Alright, so you're looking to get your hands on some Steel Bars in Conan Exiles, huh? Smart move! These bad boys are essential for upgrading your gear and crafting some seriously tough stuff. You can't just whip 'em up from scratch though; you'll need a couple of key ingredients and a special crafting station. Don't worry, I'll walk you through it step-by-step.
First things first, the recipe for Steel Bars requires two things: Iron Bars and Steelfire. You'll need to gather these separately before you can combine them.
Making Iron Bars
Iron Bars are pretty straightforward. You'll need to head out into the world and mine Ironstone. Luckily, it's pretty common, so you shouldn't have too much trouble finding it. Once you've got a good haul of Ironstone, just toss it into a Furnace, and boom – Iron Bars!
Making Steelfire
Now, Steelfire is where things get a little more involved, but it's totally doable. The recipe for Steelfire calls for 2 Tar and 1 Brimstone. You can't just pick these up off the ground, so let's break down how to get them.
Getting Brimstone
Keep an eye out for yellow-colored rocks scattered around the world. These are your Brimstone deposits. Harvest them up, and you'll get your Brimstone. If you're struggling to find enough, there are more detailed guides out there that pinpoint specific locations.
Getting Tar
Tar isn't found lying around. To get it, you'll need to gather animal hides and process them in a Tannery. Tar is a byproduct of this process. So, get hunting and start collecting those hides!
Crafting Steelfire
Once you've got both Tar and Brimstone, you'll need a crafting station called a Firebowl Cauldron to make Steelfire. If you don't have one yet, the basic version is pretty easy to craft, usually just requiring Iron Bars and Twine. Once your Firebowl Cauldron is set up, just toss in your Tar and Brimstone, and craft as much Steelfire as you need.
Crafting Steel Bars
With both your Iron Bars and Steelfire ready to go, you're finally ready to make Steel Bars! You'll need a Furnace for this. Just combine the Iron Bars and Steelfire in the Furnace, and you'll be churning out shiny new Steel Bars in no time. These are crucial for making better tools, armor, and even advanced crafting stations like the Improved Armorer's Bench. So, make sure you stock up!
