Vintage Story Alloy Ratios and Crucible Guide

Learn Vintage Story alloy ratio ranges, nugget and ingot conversions, melting points, and four-slot crucible constraints before planning a precise smelting batch.

Alloy ratio reference

Each alloy accepts a range of metal percentages. Use the table to compare valid compositions and melting points before placing metals in the crucible.

From nuggets to ingots

20 nuggets make one ingot, and each nugget contributes 5 units. Plan complete 100-unit multiples whenever you want a predictable ingot yield.

Crucible and slot constraints

A crucible holds up to 4 distinct inputs, with at most 128 nuggets in each slot. Every batch must satisfy the alloy ranges and produce enough total units for whole ingots.

Frequently asked questions

How many nuggets make one ingot?

Twenty nuggets equal 100 metal units, which produces one complete ingot when the alloy composition is valid.

Can a valid alloy use any percentage inside its range?

Yes. Every component must remain inside its listed minimum and maximum percentage, and the complete mixture must total 100 percent.

Why does the four-slot limit matter?

The crucible interface accepts four inputs, so a practical recipe must distribute all required metals across no more than four occupied slots.
