Common Knowledge about Green Steel items

 * EVERY green steel blank weapon or accessory that you craft requires a Shavarath Signet Stone, which in turn requires all 5 of the Shavarath Stones to create: Might (Ritual Sacrifice), Battle (Running with Devils), Strategy (Let Sleeping Dust Lie), Victory (The Coalescence Chamber), & Foresight (Rainbow in the Dark).


 * These items will bind to your character once equipped or "upgraded" with the tiered bonuses - only the unequipped, "raw" items may be traded to other characters/players or sold through the auction house.


 * Green Steel weapons are considered Evil for means of bypassing damage reduction.


 * Only one Green Steel accessory may be equipped at a time without penalty prior to being cleansed by a Essence of Cleansing acquired on the 20th completion of the Shroud. Weapons are not bound by this rule and can be wielded freely.


 * Green Steel Accessories have a minimum level of 11 to be equipped; Green Steel Weapons have a minimum level of 12. As such, they are quite useful to those who undergo a True Reincarnation on their character.


 * The most common Green Steel weapon most people craft first used to be a Mineral II weapon for its Metalline + Good properties for getting through most bosses Damage reduction. Since Update 10 Cannith Crafting, this has been less common.


 * Some of the Manufactured Ingredients to create a Green Steel Blank have multiple recipes: Use whichever you have enough raw ingredients for.


 * Green Steel can only be upgraded while the player is not on timer for the Shroud (aside from creating Green Steel blanks (and, if the player has access to the Devils of Shavarath adventure pack, the Altar of Subjugation) since all the upgrading altars are within the raid instance. Another exception is when a guild has a high enough level to acquire altars on their Guild Airship. This requires you to be a guild member or be invited by a guild member to their airship.
