How to craft it

tungsten or silver

The two ores are interchangeable for nearly everything, but one real difference exists and it favors casters. A tungsten pickaxe can break meteorite. The silver one cannot. A tungsten world therefore lets you walk straight to a fallen meteor and assemble the magic armor set well ahead of schedule, while a silver world makes you upgrade your pickaxe first. If you are planning a mage run and get to pick your world, this is the ore you want.

name origin

The word is Swedish for heavy stone, which fits an element notorious for refusing to melt. A furnace like the one in game would never get near the temperature real tungsten needs, and the real metal is closer to white than the sprite color suggests.
