Producing

So You Want to Be a Producer?

First off, we'll need to find the trainers that will assist you on your journey. Find the "Fishing Hole Gatekeeper" in any of the starting towns. You’ll notice that he has been upgraded to be a "Studio Gatekeeper" as well!

Click on him/her then select:

"I want to enter the Crafting Studio."
Once inside, you will find yourself right outside the studio itself. Walk inside and locate the NPC "Kacie". Players can choose 1 of the 4 crafting professions available. There is also an option to reset your current crafting job which will allow you to start a new crafting profession of your choice. Keep in mind that if you reset your profession, you will lose all the blueprints and skill points associated with that profession. So reset only if you are "sure" you want to start a new one. The 4 professions to choose from are:

• Weaponsmith : Create devastating weapons for all classes. Throughout their training, weaponsmiths will learn how to add sockets to weapons they create. These sockets can be filled with Reinforcement Stones created by the Accessory Crafters.
• Armorsmith : Protect you and your allies by making powerful armor. Like weaponsmiths, armorsmiths can socket items they can make.
• Accessory Producer : Impress the ladies and your foes with the shine of your jewelry. Skilled Accessory Crafters will be able to create Enhance Stones which will increase the level and stats of an item.
• Magic Tool Producer : The Magic Tool Crafters create powerful Reinforcement Stones that can be placed into sockets for a certain amount of time.

Players can access the Character Information Screen by pressing "C" on their keyboard. There have been some slight changes to go with the crafting update. Players will be able to equip special items for producing/gathering as well as check their producing/gathering skills and blueprints.

  Production/Gathering : Toggles between the Production and Gathering tabs to view gear and skills.

  Inventory : Just like equipping armor and weapons. Equip gear to assist you in crafting and
  gathering.

  Crafting Information : View your job, progression and level for crafting or gathering.

The Process

It's not time to begin producing. Find the nearest producing station and right click on it. Opening the crafting station will bring you to your blueprint list.

 Each profession will have a number of items they can create. The icons at the top are the different categories.

 This will categorize the weapons into different grades. As your Crafting Skill Level increases, you will be able to create better graded weapons.

 You will then get to choose the specific item you would like to create. A list should look like this.

 Once you have selected the blueprint, click on the confirm button to continue.

Once you have confirmed the item, it will bring you to the blueprint’s window. It will let you know what materials you need and what the outcome will look like if everything goes according to plan.

 Product
The name of the item. Hover over the icon with your mouse to reveal the final product of the item.

 Materials
A list of materials needed to continue producing the item. Hover over the icon for the exact names.

 In Possession
The number of that material in your current inventory. If the number is green you have a sufficient amount. If the number is red, you do not have enough of the required item.

 Required
This list will let you know how much of the specific material you need. If you do not have enough, the "In Possession" number will be in red.

 Perfect Craft Points
The amount of craft points needed to create a perfect item.
Max Sockets
The total number of sockets with a perfect item.
Craft Time
The amount of time it takes to create the item.
Reuse Time
The amount of time you will have to wait to use this specific blueprint again.
Reagents Needed
The number of reagents used per anomaly.
Number of Attempts
Total number of attempts possible based on what you have in your inventory.

 Start Crafting
When you are ready to begin, press this button.

Once the final crafting begins, the green bar will start to progress. As the green bar progresses, it should pass certain "checkpoints". These checkpoints indicate the item's resulting quality.

Your character has 45 seconds to fill up the bar. Once the 45 seconds are over, the quality of the item will be dependent on how far the green bar has progressed. Each item has a set number of unexpected outcomes. This is dependent on the number of CP your character has and the total number of CP the item requires.

When an unexpected anomoly happens, a box will appear with an icon in the middle. You have 3 seconds to click on one of the reagents. Make sure you are fully stocked and don't go afk during the process.

The Finished Product

Once the crafting is complete, you can hover over the icon with your mouse to check the item's "Item Grade", "Quality" and the number of "sockets" crafted into the item.





Now you can find other crafters to fill those sockets with stones and further enhance your item.

Have fun and good luck!!
