TUVALKANE Blacksmith Guide

TUVALKANE blacksmith in Midrath: weapon recipes, Chordstone fusion, upgrades, and Preludes 15 services.

Meeting TUVALKANE

TUVALKANE is Midrath hub's primary blacksmith NPC unlocking weapon recipes, Chordstone fusion, gear upgrades, and some Totem tier services in Preludes 15. Main quest introduces the forge early — return after Agari farms with mats.

Services Offered

Recipe crafting from gathered ores and ghost drops. Chordstone fusion with preview bands. Socket unlocking coordination with Tempers. Migration referrals for legacy Totems post-rework.

Progression Tips

Craft quest-recommended weapons before gambling on random drops. Upgrade existing refined weapon instead of crafting duplicate families — materials scarce in pre-alpha weeks.

Dialogue and Quest Hooks

TUVALKANE questlines gate advanced recipes tied to Gods & Ghosts narrative. Complete yellow markers before expecting high-tier fusion options.
