Crafting
“What do you want me to make?—Leo Canton, Blacksmith (Rog Imperial City)
Crafting is the process of turning component items, such as crafting materials into weapons and armor or upgrading normal items with item bonuses. There are seven skills associated with crafting and each crafting lists which skills are required for the recipe. In most cases, crafted items have the "Elite" prefix in the name. For improving weapon attack or armor defense, see Enchanting.
Crafting skills
- See also: Crafting leveling guide
There are 7 crafting skills, each cost 1 skill point to unlock. Manufacture allows you to craft items yourself using tools. Any additional skill(s) that are required to craft an item are listed on its crafting sheet.
- Player increase the cap by 2 skill levels for every 1 character level.
- Crafting has a higher possibility of failure at lower levels, but as the Manufacture skill increases, the chance of failure will eventually be eliminated.
- Increasing the Manufacture skill unlocks the ability to craft with higher level upgrade sheets. Using higher level upgrade sheets can give better quality item bonuses.
- Crafting sheet/Improvement and current highest possible level Crafting sheet/Creation is the fastest way to max out your crafting.

Blacksmiths & Tools
- Primary articles: Blacksmith, Crafting Tool
You can craft items yourself using kits and the Manufacture skill or at a Blacksmith located in major cities. Blacksmiths have a fixed crafting level that affects success/failure, but using them does not add experience to the Manufacture skill.
| Name | Uses |
|---|---|
 Manufacturing Kit |
Used to create normal items from crafting sheets and materials. |
 Upgrade Kit |
Used to upgrade normal items with Magic or Rare item bonuses from upgrade sheets and materials. |
Recipes
- Primary article: Crafting sheet
There are a variety of crafting sheets / recipes; some can be bought from Apprentice Blacksmiths in town, but most are found as loot from monsters. Each sheet can tell you what item it can manufacture or upgrade, the required Manufacture level and crafting skills, and the necessary crafting materials for the recipe. The list of requirements vary depending on the sheet's use.
Crafting sheet examples
| Name | Uses |
|---|---|
 Armor Manufacturing Sheet |
Commonly referred to as "white sheets". Used to create normal armor items. |
 Weapon Manufacturing Sheet |
Commonly referred to as "white sheets". Used to create normal weapon items. |
 Weapon Magic Upgrade Sheet |
Commonly referred to as "blue sheets" or "magic sheets". Used to upgrade normal weapon items with Magic item bonuses. |
 Accessory Rare Upgrade Sheet |
Commonly referred to as "red sheets" or "rare sheets". Used to upgrade jewelry items with Rare item bonuses. |
Materials
- Primary article: Crafting Material
To craft an item, you must have the appropriate materials in your inventory to place in the crafting window. Crafting materials can be purchased from shops (gems, metals, yarn, etc.) in major cities and gathered as loot from monsters.
- Each city has a different selection of materials in their Material Shop.
- When farming monster loot, it is best to use a character that is within 2 levels of the monster. Drop rates diminish if there is too large of a level gap (ie. if they no longer drop money, they won't drop monster materials).
Crafting material examples
Crafting window
The crafting window can be opened by interacting with a Blacksmith, and selecting Craft, or by using the Manufacture skill.
The player must place the appropriate items in the crafting window to manufacture or upgrade items. Attempting to place the incorrect item will highlight the slot red and prevent placement.
- The crafting sheet and crafting tool can be placed in the sheet slot (top left) and tool slot (top right).
- Once a sheet is placed, the material slots (sides) are populated with the named crafting materials needed for the recipe - those items can be placed in their corresponding material slots.
- If upgrading an item, the desired item must also be placed in the item slot (center).
Once the window is filled with the necessary items, clicking the Craft button at the bottom will consume the crafting items to attempt the action. See the Success or Failure sections for more information on crafting results.
Manufacturing items
The process of manufacturing items is fairly straightforward at its core: a player must get a crafting sheet, collect its required materials, unlock the appropriate skills, then create the item. There are many craftable armor, weapon, and mystical items. See Upgrading items for more information.

- Upgrading increases the rarity by adding bonuses to item stats and character attributes.

- Upgrading requires an Upgrade Kit, a normal rarity item, and a magic or rare crafting sheet with the listed materials.
