Blacksmith

Hi I'm starting out as a BS too , have a bs prof 44 difficulty level70+, the only skills I maxed for now is Creating equip, Upgrade and Enhance proficiency(level2 skill, not sure bout the name), i left out the others on level 5 pre-req and didn't spent any points in the middle path, the refining skills, I'm not doing any serious refining yet anyways and the processing material skill is at level 7(still thinking if I'll max this out). I spent some points in my Archer class and still have some points left, well, hope that will help you decide which skills to take.

 

I have a question, I dont know if I have been doing this wrong.
Is tech even good? Or we just put all points into our main stat?
Someone told me we need tech for increased success rate to craft something and that helps us to get 2 slots gears.

 

This which was told to you is correct. The only thing about Tech is the 2 slots gear, that bs, until its confirmed. I been crafting like a mofo.
I have 3 Diff BS right now, Full Dex Full Vit and Full Tech. Full Dex and Vit for high Potential, and Full Tech to add the stats and successfully do it.
I have tried all I can to get 2 Slots, and only thing that has come with 2 slots is a Long Bow 1 time, and on my Full Dex BS.
Do your own Theorycrafting xD, kinda tired of spending so much cash just to get the correct info xDD

 

does novice anvil and craftsman anvil needed to max its level

 

As of today, I have no proof the anvils work for sht, the only thing I have notice they have decreased the break point on refining equipment +1-2-3-4-5 theres less break circles at lvl 10 for both skills. Apart from that, they worth sht honestly y=)S

 

Are there two ways to level Proficiency up
-Tech
-Create
Am I correct? Where's the best place farm material for Proficiency? Should I build BS 80 main stats + pure TECH or pure only (DEX, STR, VIT)?

 

Question. If I have 3 smiths (vit for armor, int for crafting, and full tec for upgrading), do I have to upgrade my be proficiency for the full tec guy? I only plan on using him to upgrade the equipment that my other 2 made and wasn't sure if the bs proficiency needed to be maxed or not.

 

Proficiency increase the available options on the status area, +1-2-3-4-5-6-7(this as far as Ive gotten). So yea, you need to lvl him.

 

Just to contribute, my Noob guide:
1. Anvil
- inc difficulty to be able to craft higher lvl items.
-Doesn't seem to inc success rate in creating equips.
-They don't dec the breakpoint in refining(adding + to items) since i have 8 breakpoint before and after i have maxed anvil 2.
-The only thing that decreased the breakpoint in refining is the second skill for refining at lvl 50. From 8 to 6 i think I was making +6 items that time.

2. Smith level
- Each level inc difficulty I think by 1. Not so sure how much. Never counted, but most likely.
- Main inc in success rate. The higher the smith level(not difficulty) in contrast to item level. The higher the success.
- Doesn't inc potential of items. From smith lvl 21 to 40 My potential is still stuck in 31. So Its safe to say that only main stat inc potential of items. But I'm still hoping that it will. I'll update when i reach 50 smith if there's an inc.

3. Difficulty level
-Increased by smith level, dex, tech and anvil
-Allows crafting of higher lvl items
-doesn't appear to affect success rate. If the diff lvl comes from anvil . Can't say the same for dex.

4. Tech
-increase difficulty level
-2nd to "smith level" in increasing success rate.

5. Pure tech build
- Don't need anvil and no need to lvl smithing(since it can only craft crap).
-Just need to reach lvl 50 to have +5 stat upgrade and highest refining rate(2nd level skill).
-Can't fight and will depend on Sm Art for lvling unless it will be leeched by guildies and friends.
-This mainly depend on upgrading and refining others work with high potential.

6. Pure main stat.
-Need anvil both 1 and 2 for inc difficulty and faster leveling.
-Need to reach lvl 50 for maximum stat and potential, need to level smithing for success rate.
-They craft the best equipment but limited upgrade points of only up to +3(someone please confirm).
-Base on my experience since the level 50 refining skill solely affect refine success rate. This build can have the same refining rate of pure tech.

7. Tips
-Farmer char greatly helps poor people leveling their smith. Ideally Mage with 50in, 20dex and the rest is luk. With Lvl 10 Magic wall(AOE skill) and mana charge, 10% inc drop rate survival skill and lvl 10 processing for discarding in battles.
-For players with 1 smith. Better to have a pure tech. Since you can buy high Pots equip but finding smith service is hard and very susceptible to scams.
-Reach level 50 and unlock lvl 2 smith skills first before leveling crafting or doing any upgrading.
-Smith level 1-10 Basic item like Short sword cost 3 metal and can be processed for 2 metal.
-Smith level 10-25 Gladius, Easy to farm nick blades and metal in gobs ruin and jagged fang in rutin.
-Smith level 25+ Find something high level and easy to craft. Ex is BD sword and volg sword.

 

I have a pure vit tanker and also being vit BS at the same time, so my skill point are very limited. Do I need to maximum skill craft at level10?

Is it possible if I make another novice char and maximum skill craft at level 10 then let this new char do especially creating metal/beast/wood/mana job?

 

Yes you could make a char specifically for farming ang crafting of materials. I have mage farmer with item crafting skill. Its preferable to have a pure BS since there is a very limited number of skillpoints like 20 points for anvil 1 and 2 and another 25 points for maxing item creation(refine 5pt, item creation 10, potential inc 10).

 

Not bad, try using more readable color on your post.. It will be great

 

Whats the use of skill tree novice anvil? Its said inc proficiency gap, is it inc our prof lvl, or just inc our maximum lvl of prof lvl

 

Does tech effect upgrade equipment and refine equipment?

 

yes refine and upgrade effect much on TECH

 

Refine skill only increase by some poin of proficiency, example : max anvil skill only give u profiency till 30poin, meanwhile with pure smith stat like full vit gives you 38poin, so basically its useless if you are a pure smith. from my experiences, anvil skill give a rate to craft something very rare equipment like normally with current stat and lvl a success water staff only give you atk 32-37 and 35 pt, but with max anvil and luck you could get an atk40+ and 40+ pt with double slot )(if you're lucky)
hope this help..

 

Did someone create a blacksmith that has a pire balanced stat ex. Str20 agi20 dex20 vit20 int20?? U think it can crwate a good stufs?

 

i have question :
my bs proficiency is at level 15
while requirement to make adventure garbs is also 15.
why every time i make adv garb, its only adding my proficiency by 1%, and sometimes its not adding at all
is it proficiency affected by player level too? (my BS level is 40)

 

How level or how to increase my difficulty level?

 

Difficulty level = blacksmith proficiency + (tech stat point-1)/2
Bs proficiency is increased in every equip u craft.
Tech can be increased on level 40(personal stat)
