Smelting Titanium
I've beaten the Wall of Flesh and got the Pwnhammer. When I destroyed the 3 altars I got Orichalcum, Titanium, and Palladium. When I mine Titanium and try to smelt it, it says I need an Adamanite Forge but I don't have Adamantite in my world, so how do I smelt my Titanium?
This is on the mobile version.
Best Answer
Titanium and Adamantite are equivalent to each other, both being tier 3 hardmode ores. As such you can craft a Titanium Forge instead, which functions in exactly the same way as an Adamantite Forge.
You can craft a Titanium Forge from 30 Titanium Ore and a Hellforge at a Mythril or Orichalcum Anvil.
This is generally true of most hardmode crafting recipies, but not all.

Can titanium be smelted?
As indicated by its negative redox potential, titanium is thermodynamically a very reactive metal that burns in normal atmosphere at lower temperatures than the melting point. Melting is possible only in an inert atmosphere or in a vacuum. At 550 \xb0C (1,022 \xb0F), it combines with chlorine.What happens to titanium when heated?
The metal, which burns when heated in air 610 \xb0C or higher (forming titanium dioxide) is also one of the few elements that burns in pure nitrogen gas (it burns at 800 \xb0C and forms titanium nitride).Does titanium release toxins when heated?
Environmental effects of titaniumLow toxicity. When in a metallic powdered form, titanium metal poses a significant fire hazard and, when heated in air, an explosion hazard. No environmental effects have been reported.Does titanium melt in fire?
According to the reference [24], the flame temperature of titanium alloy is about 2930 \xb0C which is above its melting point. Therefore, the titanium alloy begins to melt into liquid phase during combustion process.Titanium Casting Experiment
