Ores

Here you can see the various ores found throughout the areas you will travel.  They are listed, by conventional reasoning, from best to least.  What is meant by conventional reasoning is that each of the the three smiths who will work the ore into items for you state they will take the best  first.  The order from top to bottom represents the order in which the smiths will use the ore should you have one of each type in your possession when you deal with them. 

However, this order does not necessarily represent the quality of the item you will receive.  I have obtained better items from the lower grade ores quite often.  When you visit the smiths in Erathia it is advisable to save before dealing with them and reload until you get a "deal" you are satisfied with.


 

The three smiths are:

Cloud Agraynel: Agraynel Residence, creates miscellaneous items
Robert Sourbrow: Sourbrow Home, makes armor
Qillain Laraselle: Laraselle Residence, produces weapons
