how feasible is an armor or combat suit made of wolfram (not for humans, they are for monsters)? is it possible to make any feasible white weapon with wolfram?
Tungsten/Wolfram is a really neat material, I like it a lot and it's pretty. However one of its interesting properties is that it's super dense and heavy. This is generally bad for armor since other materials are as strong and lighter. You could do it, it would just be massively outperformed by steel or something else.
Tungsten, tungsten carbide, and tantalum-tungsten alloys are great for hardness and high temperatures. Militaries use them for armor piecing rounds, so they are already in use as weapons.
For something like a hand weapon, axe heads might work for a tungsten alloy since the weight is now useful and the big thick shape could mitigate some of its tendency to be brittle if you're careful and maybe use different alloys/phases in different sections (harder stuff at the edge, more flexible stuff at the center/backing, swords do this but might still be too thin for tungsten). Since it's super hard that will also be great for messing things up. This will be expensive and hard to fix but it seems workable, also it would look really cool! Maybe the monsters just have a lot of tungsten laying around and are good at working it.
(Please note, I am not a metallurgist! I have only dealt with tungsten a little!)
