How To Smelt Ore In Path Of Exile 3.25 Settlers Of Kalguur? - Detailed Explanation Of Smelting Mechanism

Aug 16, 2024

In the latest Path of Exile 3.25 Settlers of Kalguur, you can act as a town manager and use different strategies and techniques to make your town prosperous, one of which is smelting.

In other games, the smelting mechanism may be confusing, but not in POE 3.25. You just need to mark the location of the ore for the workers you hired, and then wait quietly for them to mine, and finally smelt the ore they bring back to get Bars.

How To Smelt Ore In Path Of Exile 3.25 Settlers Of Kalguur? - Detailed Explanation Of Smelting Mechanism

But there will be some tasks for you to complete in the last step. This guide will show you how to deal with this task and how you can use this mechanism to help you build a commercial town earlier.

How To Unlock Smelting?

Like mining ore, smelting is also a worker’s specialty, so it also needs to be unlocked first. Unlocked after you get Rank 2 on Recruitment, you will need 20 Gold, 3 Crimson Iron Ores, 3 Orchicalcum Ores, and some POE Currency to build a smelter.

Once you have the above materials, head east of the waypoint and you will see a hammer icon on the map that will allow you to build a smelter. Once it is built, you can start managing your smelter. At this time, you need to interact with Board and select a worker with good smelting expertise to be in charge of smelting.

If you don’t find a suitable worker on Manage Workers page, you can go to Raulf in the town hall to recruit some new workers. Remember to choose workers with a high smelting level, which will reduce your costs and speed up your smelting.

Smelting Levels

It should be noted that smelting is a passive job. This means that as long as there is mined and unsmelted ore in your warehouse, it will be automatically smelted. If you do not want the ore to be directly converted into Bars, you can temporarily evacuate the workers responsible for smelting from the smelter.

How To Speed Up Smelting Process?

In addition to the above, you can hire some workers who are good at mining or smelting to increase the speed of smelting. You can also click the construction hammer icon to upgrade your smelter to increase the speed. The smelting speed will increase a little at levels 3, 9 and 11. When you reach level 11, you can increase your smelting speed by 60%.

However, these are not the most effective methods, because either one will cost you a lot of Gold and POE Currency. The most effective is to increase the capacity of your smelting warehouse and assign more workers to each ore you need.

When you unlock higher levels of smelting, give priority to ores that produce more valuable ingots to maximize your resource output. In addition, you should upgrade smelting as soon as possible in order to unlock other features, such as Mapping and Disenchanting. These ultimate features require bars to upgrade, so you need to start production quickly.

That’s all you need to know about smelting in Path of Exile 3.25 Settlers of Kalguur. By efficiently managing and upgrading your smelting operations, you can ensure a steady supply of bars, which is essential to advancing your Kingsmarch commercialization and enhancing your gaming experience in Settlers of Kalguur league. Have fun!
