Description[]

Forged Steel is a forgeable multi-purpose resource that can be used for crafting and upgrading various items. Forged Steel is easy to forge but an expensive resource to use. If you have Advanced Engineering level 5 you need only 1/10th of the Clay compared to Iron. For example if you want to craft 1000 Forged Steel you will need 20000 Iron but only 2000 Clay, because each Clay smelts into 5 Clay (Forge) in the Forge.
