How do I metal arrowhead? 11/15/2017 11:20 AM CST
I'm going bonkers trying to figure the syntax on these:

> >study book
> You study the instructions and begin to understand how arrowhead shaping works. Arrowheads can be fashioned from a variety of material. Animal parts such as fangs, teeth and claws are often suitable for shaping into deadly tips for arrows. After skinning one off a corpse, just hold the part in one hand and a pebble, stone or hard metal object in the other then SHAPE the PART into ARROW. The part material is generally soft and easily impact-shaped for assembly into an arrow.
>
> Metal ingots and raw ore can also be used to create arrowheads. Simply go to any Forging Society or Engineering Society and SHAPE the METAL to melt it and then flow it into an arrowhead. Further shaping during the arrow assembly will provide the head with barbs, tips and other important features.

> >shape ingot with forge
> You must be holding the forge to do that.

> You fumble around but can't seem to make that work.

> You fumble around but can't seem to make that work.

Forged metal arrowheads aren't a thing yet. You need engineering (specifically the shaping discipline) for crafted arrowheads. The instructions in that book are also a little misleading (beyond materials you can use) as the parser won't accept any abbreviated form of 'arrowhead' so the commands, Shape part into Arrow, wouldn't work regardless.

Check out the shaping guide for more information.
