Deep Dive: Artisan Smithing & The Solar Anvil System
“Explore the progression tiers of Sunsteel Armory and the mechanics of gem socketing at the celestial Solar Anvil.”
SunForge has four confirmed equipment progression tiers: Iron & Diamond as the vanilla baseline, followed by Aurium, Sunsteel, and Voidforged. Each stage has its own material theme and visual identity.
Unlike conventional anvils that suffer wear and tear, designated Solar Anvils function as dedicated artisan stations. Here, adventurers combine compatible armaments with refined subterranean gems across four confirmed tiers: Rough, Polished, Flawless, and Radiant.
Artisan Rule: Socketing is definitive. Adventurers should carefully plan their gem combinations before binding them at the Solar Anvil.
Every tier is balanced to ensure competitive integrity across both PvE dungeon explorations and wilderness territorial skirmishes. No pay-to-win shortcuts or uncraftable overpowered modifiers will ever bypass the core smithing progression.
