If you are a Dwarf, Gerp, Gnome, or Halfling the guild 'The Circle of Steel' was origionally made with the purpose of crafting. If your not one of those races, well.... you should be. :)

But whatever you do, don't listen to a pixie. They often like to mislead people.

Actually, she is a pixie. AND she is talking.

How can you tell when a pixie is lying? Its lips are moving!

Guys, this is a thread about crafting tutorials and/or hints and tips, plz keep it on topic.
I do suggest Felicia that you make a dwarven character and ask Vogar what he requires of his guild members and then send an application in if youre interested.
I also help out all guild members with questions and help most people if they ask questions on the chat.
Right now, i also recommend taking an in depth look at the the help files.
Start with help craft then go through all those help files, dont forget to check the help files they recommend under see also:

the little extras you learn include such things as which things not to enchant, and how to not risk destroying items from over enchantment.

you will learn those things through experience :)

Felicia, to tell roughly how many resources you're going to need to get 100% in a craft you should do this:

x*1600

where x is equal to the number of resources it takes to create one item of that craft.

IE, if you wanted to make a sword

Code: Select all

Smithing (100.00%) > Metal Weapons (100.00%) > Swords (0.00%)

Nr Item                     Skill   Cost
:: :::::::::::::::::::::: ::::::: ::::::
 1 A short sword            0.00%     25
 2 A long sword             0.00%     25
 3 A great sword            0.00%     25

Usage: 'forge 5 8 <nr or item name>'
You would do 25*1600

You are a pixie and as such inherently lie. For the ignorant people out there, its impossible for anyone to get 100% in multiple areas under the same skill.

*cough* multiple-accounts *cough*

Lets all ask ourselves a question. If the account 'owner' never uses the account, are they really the owner? Then comes another question. If they are not the 'true owner', isn't that illegal multiple accounts?

I could easily have a dozen friends make accounts, play for a week, then give me the share-password or real password. Should that be allowed? Even if I did not multiplay? Why are we only limited to 8 characters?

Boy oh boy, thats a lot of questions and thinking. Back to my ale.

You see, pixies have wings and fly. Because of that they feel they are above the rules everyone else abides.

Of course that's legal...Lingolas does that with Homer, Arl, and until recently, Laurana.

We all know Lingolas doesn't cheat, right?

Get someone to make you a saw and then get some blocks of wood into your inventory and type process block. It'll process it into planks or ruin the blocks depending on what your skill in processing wood is. When you have planks inside a portal and you get one plank out of the portal you can start whittling and it'll know where to get the rest of the wood. All you'll need is 1 plank out the whole time :D I hope that helped ^.^

The Kender General Store in Kendermore (village) has woodworking saws, you can also purchase them from players, and you can forge them from metal (forge 6 4)

Kendermore is southwest of midian, if you follow the road from midian west, and stay on the road, it moves counterclockwise around the lava mountains/volcanoes, eventually it goes southeast, and you will reach it.

And if you still want bone, you'll have to start salvaging them. Not just any creature will do either, i started out in the graveyard killing undead stuff and generally everything bony. But there aren't really many useful things to bonecarve right now, so just stick with salvaging, people pay lots for a portal of bone....dunno why, guess i missed something good to make?..... :?:
