Where To Take The Starmetal In Avowed, & Who Can Forge It (Forged Of Star Stuff Quest)

Published Feb 24, 2025

Followed

As you start the 'Forged of Star-Stuff' quest, one of Avowed's many side missions, you need to find a Starmetal smithy. Although the side quest is triggered as soon as you pick up the first piece you find in the Living Lands, you're given no direction whatsoever. There is only one place in the game: a blacksmith capable of working with such a metal.

However, depending on where you are in the campaign, you might need to put a good amount of time into getting there. When you do, you will be able to forge two powerful unique weapons. They're not among the best weapons in Avowed altogether, but they will still be worth the effort to add them to your collection.

Take The Starmetal To Forgemaster Dela in Solace Keep

Further Into The Campaign

To forge Starmetal in Avowed, you need to go to Forgemaster Dela in Solace Keep. This is within Gallawain's Tusks, the fourth and final region of the game. As you progress through most of the campaign, you will eventually gain access to the region automatically.

It will take around 15-20 hours to reach Gallawain's Tusks in Avowed.

Have Marius with you as you head to Solace Keep. Then, you will gain access to the keep and will be able to explore it. Take the lift down into the main hall, walk straight ahead, and down the stairs. Dela will be there and ready to forge Starmetal for you. The keen dwarf will talk for a bit about his ion for the craft, and then he will offer to take the Starmetal piece you already have and create something for you.

A Sword Or Arquebus

Getting Moonstrike from Forgemaster in Avowed in exchange for Starmetal

Forgemaster Dela can craft two weapons for you in Avowed: an arquebus called Moonstrike and a sword called Meteor Blade. Of the two, I preferred to craft the Moonstrike, as I've found that such powerful arquebus weapons are rarer than swords. Nevertheless, you can still track down the other Starmetal locations in Avowed to forge both weapons and even improve them into superior versions.
