Crafting


Crafting is unlocked once you have defeated The Terminal. Crafting your very first item might seem like a daunting challenge but it gets easier with practice. We will try to help you through the process to so you can see the benefits of crafting.

Crafting Level: In crafting, you have an experience bar that is different from the regular experience bar from battle. A proficient crafter will produce higher quality items. Note that, just as drops from enemies, the actual item you get is dependent on your own experience level.

Crafting Kits
This area will allow you to automatically craft items without the risk of failure and no crafting experience is necessary. Here you can craft a shield or armor if you have the right materials for it. You can also create a charm using 2 diamonds, or create a commodity using 2 scrap metals. However, you do not obtain any skill level increase from crafting kits. Crafting Kits are unlocked at level 25.

Commodities crafted with scrap metal

 * Silver Key (Common)
 * Diamond (Uncommon)
 * Mithril (Rare)
 * Palladium (Ultra Rare)
 * X-orb (Very Rare)
 * Two Scrap Metal
 * Two Wood Splints
 * Two Raw Hides
 * Mysterious Artifact

Armor/Charm/Mats Crafting


To start, let us go through what each bar means:

[PROGRESS]: This bar keeps track of the progress of your crafting. When the yellow bar reaches across the screen, your item is almost ready.

[DURABILITY]: Keeps track of the durability of the item. If the durability of the item reaches zero, the crafting will have failed. The red bars right next to it are not related to durability. The amount of durability used by a strike is random, with durability being reduced by a max of 20 for strong strikes, and 5 for the other two.

[RED BARS]: These is the heat monitor. It will warn you when you need to be patient and wait for your item to cool down before continuing work on it. Hammering away on your item at strong all the time will most likely break your item. The number of colons/text indicate the heat, the three groups will always have the same value.

[Quality]: This is the bar that keeps track of the quality of your item. Anything you can do besides waiting will increase the quality of your item. This quality represents the rarity of the item you can get and not the actual quality of the item.

The requirements for armor and charm crafting are not too high as the possibility of finding raw hide and wood split is common. The goal of crafting is to get the quality of your item as high as possible before the progress bar is full. Be careful though as if durability drops to zero or if the item overheats at any moment in the process of crafting, your hard work will have been for naught. Therefore, you are encouraged to use up all your resources strategically in order to craft a rare item.
