'''Crafting''' activity summary.
|message=It costs 7 skill points to unlock all crafting skills. Since higher level class skills cost more skill points to unlock, most players create separate characters that are dedicated to crafting. It is recommended to use a class that can freely teleport ([[Wizard]] or [[Summoner]]) for easier travel between cities. Otherwise, if you do not wish to skip class skills, unlock all class skills (level 50) before spending points on crafting skills.
 
}}
Note about most players creating a craft-character or waiting until after 50 to start the crafting skill (to unlock all skills costs 7 skill points; class skills cost more points at higher levels). Craft-characters recommended be Wizards or Summoners for teleport and less impact from having fewer skills.

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.

Info:
It costs 7 skill points to unlock all crafting skills. Since higher level class skills cost more skill points to unlock, most players create separate characters that are dedicated to crafting. It is recommended to use a class that can freely teleport (Wizard or Summoner) for easier travel between cities. Otherwise, if you do not wish to skip class skills, unlock all class skills (level 50) before spending points on crafting skills.

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 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.
