A bar is a metal item that is obtained by refining ore, but has not been made into armour or other items. Ores can by mined from various caverns across Soulsplit. Then, using ores on a furnace, the ores are refined into metal bars using the Smithing skill and granting a small amount of Smithing experience. Most uses of the bar are purely training purposes since the need for metal weapons and armour are not in high demand due to the accelerated experience rates of each game mode.
