Avowedhas a bunch of collectibles that players can gather in hopes of getting a reward down the line. Starmetal Fragments are something similar as they show up as a quest item, but there aren’t any blacksmiths that could use the illusive item and forge it into a mighty weapon. At least, that is the case until you reach the Galawain’s Tusks region. Here, you can finally find a Starmetal Smithy who’s expert enough to make use of all those fragments you have in the inventory.
Starmetal Smithy Location in Avowed
Players can find the Starmetal Smithyinside the Solace Keepin the Galawain’s Tusks region ofAvowed. It’s a huge castle located towards the east of the region after crossing Twinedwood. It’s a location that players will eventually visit as the main story progresses, and they’ll find several NPCs inside that will offer side quests.
However, as of now, the gates to Solace Keep are closed, and seemingly, there’s no way to enter it, even after trying to convince Warden Kosmin.
How to Enter the Solace Keep in Galawain’s Tusks
There’s a way toenter Solace Keep in Galawain’s Tusks earlyinAvowed, even if you haven’t progressed through the main mission in the region. To do this, first, you’ll need to fast travel to the Solace Keep party camp andrecruit Marius into your companion party.
Once Marius is onboard, head to the gates of Solace Keep and talk to Warden Kosmin. He’ll recognize Marius, and the two will exchange some back-and-forth banter, eventually letting the players inside Solace Keep with thehelp of some convincing from Marius. Once the drawbridge opens up, head inside and pull the lever to enter the fort.
Head forward inside the halls of the keep and head downstairs to meet Forgemaster Dela, who’s the only Starmetal Smithy inAvowed.
Should You Craft a Sword or an Arquebus from Forgemaster Dela? (Starmetal Smithy)
Forgemaster Dela will be surprised to see players offering Starmetal Fragments to craft a weapon. If you have at least two Starmetal Fragments collected duringthe Forged of Star-Stuff quest, he’lloffer you two weapon choicesdepending on your build.
If you have all four Starmetal Fragments, you can actually get the upgraded variants of the weapons above, i.e.,Ondra’s Offenseand theHeavenstrike, respectively.
