Smithing Materials

 

Smithing Materials in Nioh are used at the Blacksmith to create Weapons, Armor and Tools. Smithing Materials come in 5 qualities: Regular, Quality, High Quality, Highest Quality, and Divine with each type needed to make better quality Weapons, Armor and Tools.

These materials will be used through the Forge tab at the Blacksmith and players will be able to deconstruct Weapons and Armor for materials using the Disassemble tab. You may also combine lower quality materials to receive higher ones.
