Tungsten Bar

Tungsten Bars are crafted using 4 Tungsten Ore at a Furnace, and are used to make Tungsten Tier items, including the Tungsten Watch and Tungsten Chandelier. Tungsten has a chance to replace Silver in your world.

Crafting all Tungsten equipment, including the Watch and Chandelier, requires 151 Bars, or a total of 604 Ore. Without the Watch and Chandelier, you will need 137 Bars, or 548 Ores.

Tungsten tier equipment, like most other alternative metals with the exception of Tin in some cases, is slightly better than its counterpart Silver. This makes it a bit more valuable in terms of helping the player survive, explore, and build.

Trivia

 * The word Tungsten is built out of the words "Tung" (Heavy) and "Sten" (Stone) in Swedish.
 * In reality, Tungsten is extremely difficult to work due to its hardness, it has one of the highest melting points of the elements. It also is used in the filament for light bulbs due to its heat resistance.
