Smithing is a skill topic that Gnomonkey covers in 2 videos between 2025-07-31 and 2025-11-04. This article is a stub: his statements are grouped by type, repeated ones merged.
Requirements
- Sailing adds brand new ores and bars, which require Smithing.1
Stats and numbers
- At 81 Sailing a unique furnace on one of the islands will double the speed of making cannonballs, and the blog says it also includes the double mould from Giants' Foundry.2
- The new bars are mostly used for cannonballs but are also used to upgrade the hull of the ship.3
Tips
- On a main account the new Sailing resources will be tradable, so you can bypass the levels, but they will probably be expensive because few players have the stats and max players will be training Sailing rather than chopping logs.3
Gnomonkey's opinion
- Gnomonkey says the new furnace could make making cannonballs on Iron Men feasible, such as for using a cannon before a Corporeal Beast grind, and boosts regular cannonballs for dwarf multicannons too.4
- Gnomonkey thinks Construction is probably more important than Smithing for ship upgrades, but Smithing will still matter.3
