The Weaponsmithing skill is used to create weapons out of special materials and to create magic weapons.
Description
Using craft points during preproduction, a character with weaponsmithing can create their own custom weapons. These can be different combinations of special materials, special abilities, and access to spells.
| Skill Name | Skill Tree | Prerequisite(s) | Skill Point Cost | Description
|
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Weaponsmithing Basics | Crafting | None | 4 | Craft non-martial weapons that are imbued and/ or made of special materials.
|
| Weaponsmithing Training
| Crafting | Weaponsmithing Basics | 2 | Craft basic thrown weapons and projectiles that are imbued and/ or made of special materials.
|
| Weaponsmithing Proficiency
| Crafting | Weaponsmithing Training | 3 | Craft martial weapons that are imbued and/ or made of special materials.
|
| Weaponsmithing Expertise
| Crafting | Weaponsmithing Proficiency | 4 | Craft javelins and projectile weapons that are imbued and/ or made of special materials.
|
| Weaponsmithing Mastery
| Crafting | Weaponsmithing Expert | 5 | Craft great weapons and great javelins that are imbued and/ or made of special materials. |
Effect
Weaponsmiths are always in high demand. While one of the most expensive items to make since it costs 10 coin per craft point, crafters find this to be a very profitable endeavor after markups.
Since there is no limit to the amount of weapons one can carry it is helpful to have spells imbued into them so that they are not taking another item slot, which is an excellent selling point.
You need the following levels in weaponsmith to create the listed item types:
- Weaponsmithing Basics: Your character can use craft points during preproduction to create non-martial weapons.
- Weaponsmithing Training: Your character can use craft points during preproduction to create thrown weapons and projectiles.
- Weaponsmithing Proficiency:Your character can use craft points during preproduction to create martial weapons.
- Weaponsmithing Expert: Your character can use craft points during preproduction to create javelins and projectile weapons.
- Weaponsmithing Master: Your character can use craft points during preproduction to create great weapons and great javelins.

Crafting Points
For every skill point spent, the character gains 2 craft points. This can be done up to 10 times for a total of 20 crafting points.
Additional craft points can be acquired through other means and stack with these craft points. There is no cap to how many craft points a player can use during preproduction.

Preproduction
Are you lost and looking for the page with information relevant to your preproduction form? Click here for production, and here for crafting. |
Every month dozens of players attend events, and sometimes as many as half of them will want to create new magic items, produce potions, and make other in-game items. It can take logistics staff sometimes hours a month putting all of these orders together, so we use the pre-production system to help make that job a lot easier on them.
Each month logistics staff members will post reminders to turn in preproduction. You don't need to wait for those reminders, simply send the form in at any time:
- Use this form to submit preproduction; this includes crafting new items, altering props with tinkering, producing new consumables, creating valuable items, turning in runes, exchanging items with merchant, or to let us know that you'll need items for being a high-ranking druid or merchant.
- To submit requests to update obsolete consumables and printed items (such as rituals or very old scrolls) use this form.
By doing this logistics staff has everything they need to make and gather in one single place, making the job much easier.
Master Crafter
A character who has obtained all 20 craft points and has mastered a crafting skill can gain the following titles:
- Ornamenting Mastery gains the title Master Ornamentor.
- Tinkering Mastery gains the title Master Tinkerer.
- Weaponsmithing Mastery gains the title Master Weaponsmith.
Having any combination of these three titles makes a character a Master Crafter.
Master Crafters gain 4 additional craft points each event. When using these craft points, they do not need to spend any coin.
Master Crafters have unique items only they can craft:
- A Master Tinkerer who is also a Master Ornamentor can craft an Alchemist's Laboratory.
- A Master Tinkerer who is also a Master Weaponsmith can craft the Master's Blade feature onto a weapon.
- A Master Weaponsmith who is also a Master Ornamentor can craft the Master's Staff feature onto a great weapon.
