How to Make Mechanical Gears in Nightingale¶

For the most part, you will largely be crafting Mechanical Gears yourself. To do so, you will need to have unlocked the Brazier, which can be purchased from the Provisioner Realm Essence Traders by spending T1 Essence on the recipe.

When you have the Brazier, you must build it, which requires 6 Ingots and 3 Shafts. You can make Ingots at the Simple Smelter. You’ll need six for the base craft, and then a few more Ingots to create the Shaft from the Simple Smelter too.

Once your Brazier is set up, you can create many new specific metal parts for crafting stations, guns, and other crafts as you progress. You can find Mechanical Gears in the list of recipes on the Brazier. Convert your Metal Ingots into Mechanical Gears and you will be able to finish the production of recipes requiring the item.
