Trivia

  • Adamantite ore weighs more than other smithing ores, weighing 2.721kg rather than the usual 2.267kg. This is also reflected in adamant armour weighing more than the same item of another metal tier
    • Mithril ore and equipment, in a similar vein, is lighter than regular ores and equipment.
