guide

Gathering Cursium Ingots and Templates

Forging supreme armor sets capable of withstanding abyssal horrors requires harvesting rare otherworldly metals.

  • Warriors must brave perilous dungeons to discover gleaming bars of Cursium Ingot hidden in fortified vault chests.
  • Upgrading standard armor requires finding a specialized Smithing Template preserved inside ancient sunken murals.
  • Stockpiling hot handfuls of Burning Ashes from smoldering underworld depths assists in auxiliary metallurgical rites.
  • Ensure your base netherite armor is fully repaired before taking it to the smithing table for irreversible transmutations.
  • Organizing your upgrade materials beforehand prevents costly mistakes during high-level blacksmithing operations.
  • Securing these precious materials takes patience, but the resulting defensive benefits justify every dangerous expedition.

The Smithing Transform Upgrade Process

Transforming netherite equipment into cursed masterwork gear requires precise alignment on an upgraded smithing table.

  • Place the required Smithing Template into the leftmost slot to dictate the upgrade pattern.
  • Insert a netherite helmet into the center slot alongside a Cursium Ingot to forge the fearsome Cursium Helmet.
  • Upgrading your chest armor in the same configuration manifests the heavily fortified Cursium Chestplate.
  • Continue the sacred smithing process with legwear to forge impenetrable Cursium Leggings.
  • Completing the set by upgrading your footwear produces protective Cursium Boots, maximizing personal survivability.
  • Each piece inherits preexisting enchantments from donor equipment, retaining unbreaking and protection enchantments seamlessly.

Combat Performance and Boss Preparedness

Donning a complete cursed armor suit grants immense physical defense and resilience against crushing underworld strikes.

  • Complementing your heavy armor with a legendary Gauntlet of Guard significantly enhances close-quarters melee parrying.
  • Equipping an ignited Bulwark of the Flame deflects scorching fireballs launched by gargantuan dungeon bosses.
  • Surplus cursed metal bars can be joined together on a crafting grid to form an imposing Block of Cursium.
  • Review your gear enchantments thoroughly, as cursed armor retains all preexisting modifications from the donor netherite pieces.
  • March into boss arenas with total confidence once your body is completely encased in impervious cursed armor.
  • This ultimate defense configuration shields champions against catastrophic shocks during endgame boss confrontations.
