Rumors are that lumium and niniam will soon be used in forging weapons. Is there any truth to this. Due to the fact of the rising cost of these metals I ws wondering.
If i am not mistaken the price of lumium is prohibitive considering you can achieve the same effect with coal dust.Lumium was originally a material that allowed you to lighten a mix thus making a strong blade with less weight.Coal dust does that now.I believe that once forging 2.0 goes in that will change or at least be less atractive of a method to lighten a mix.

As I understand, and this info is fairly old, the big difference will be 'dust that makes steel' will have a weight and volume.
That will make lumium more attractive. Say goodbye to crap (ok, below cap :P) construction and boosted prots/absorbs from superdusted mixes. Thank the gods.
I bet common material prices jump while those that have lumium/ninium try to sell for max cash. Thats only going to drive the special metal armor market up, creating room to juice common material armors, and weapons.
