Stone

Stones are simple mineral items usually gathered from mineral veins or deposits and often usable as an ingredient for professions (usually blacksmithing, or engineering). Stones are also a drop from earth elementals, fire elementals, and infernals, corresponding in quality to the mob's level.

Uses for stone
From each stone can be made the correspondent blasting powder (with engineering); and the correspondent grinding stone, sharpening stone, and weightstone (with blacksmithing).


 * Blasting powder is used mostly for dynamite, bombs, ammo, and products like that.
 * Grinding stones are used in recipes for crafting weapons.
 * Sharpening stones are used to temporarily buff an edged weapon such as a sword or axe.
 * Weightstones are used to temporarily buff a blunt weapon such as a mace.
