Blacksmith Full Detail

Hi everyone , my Ign(In Game Name) is Dino as well and some of you might have seen me selling tons of armour in Sofya City .
Okay , let's skip the introduction and straight to the points.
In game ,
Bs = blacksmith
Prof = profiency
Pot= potential
Blacksmith have their own level and that is call profiency . The higher the profiency , the more higher quality arms you can make .
For example , adventure garb need lvl 15 profiency to make while brutal dragon armour also known as BD arm require 40 profiency to make .There are two ways to lvl up profiency which is by creating items or adding stats point to tech .
Where do I find tech stats?
When your player( not profiency ) reached lvl 40 , a skill in build stat character will be unlock . There will be a number of choices you choose . Such as crit , tech , mentality.
Now , what is pot ? Pot also known as potential can be found in every items that are crafted by players . It serve as the main purpose of adding stats to your items. Pots does not help in combat unless you turn it into stat points .
For example ,
+5 str to an item require 25 pots .
Thus , it is clear that the higher your pot , the more stats you cannot add .
Now .. Another common question -
What skill should we max for bs skill?
I would say make a seperate acc and max everything . There are a lot of other guides about adding skills point for bs. Thus I am not going to state out these . Just remember to save some for tech of you are planning on using tech to gain some profiency .
People have been asking about how stats influence the result of the items they crafted. I am pretty sure most of you know about the
Vit = armour
Dex=bow
Str=sword
Int=magic weapons
Let's go into a deeper part of how stats affect the items crafted.

+10 vit/dex/int/str = 1 potential to your arm .
+2 tech = 1 level of profiency(unconfirm)
Any proof?
I resetted my blacksmith acc twice .
First changed stat - Vit 80 tech 60
Actual level of profiency was 39. However , with tech 60 included(+30 prof) my profiency turned to 69.
What does tech do? It increase the success rate of you arm.
And with 80 vit (+8pots), I got 30 pots for every successful arms I made.
This could be assume as the p.arm originally have 22 pots on itself.
Read further more for proof.
I wanted to know the success rate differences between low profiency and high profiency. So, I did a test.
By creating 60 plate armours , I got
21 successful plates with 2 slotted arms in it. (Can't remember the stats of slotted anymore)
And the second test began. Spend 10usd to buy the stats change.
I decided to change to pure vit.
Changed stats= 141 vit 1 tech.
With every successful arm using 141 vit(+14pots) I got 36 pots for every successful arms .
Just like the first test, I made another 60 p.arm. This time , I only have 40 profiency (no tech = no additional prof) .
The results were shocking.
Only 9 arms succeed and 1 slotted among it. The slotted was( def 36 pot 36.)
By looking at both the tests, you could also assume that
69 profiency = 1 success in 3 arms .
40 profiency = 1 success in 6 arms.
This is just my thoughts - 10 profiency level help in taking away a failure product from every successful arm you make.
After this money maniac test which cost 400k spina and 10 USD , we could confirm that the stats effect above is quite accurate.
Now , stats upgrades in items are still quite mysterious to me as I didn't pay much attention to it. what a waste.People who have much more knowledge about stats upgrade are totally welcome to share their knowledge.
Furthermore , pricing of items are also one of the difficulties blacksmiths will encounter in the future.Be sure to know more about the pricing of materials and what is happening around the toram world. I shouldn't post the price of the arms I sell as this should be personally set by the blacksmith himself.
-leveling -
Blacksmith require a lot a lot a lot of patience. Just think that 1 arm only give 1% of exp. And after the item is too easy for you to craft , it might stop giving you any exp anymore. So... Let's say ... 50 LvL of profiency require 5000 arms to be make. Unless you add tech which is what almost everyone does.
Consider twice before you become a blacksmith as this skill is known as toram hardest and most complicated skill.
-stats management
For people who just started be and have no idea what stats to add .. I will give you some advise .
-my method only apply to those who have $$ and can afford lots of s.art .. This will be a fast way to level up to become a good bs.-
Firstly , party and raise yourelf to lvl 16 by leeching ( do nothing )
Why lvl 16? Because the s.art also known as small article quest could only be available after your lvl 16.
After u reach lvl 16 , buy around 15 stacks of Small articles to level yourself to lvl 40.
Next , up your tech to lvl 30 and the rest to the specific stat u want.
What specific stat? It depends on what items you want to make.
For example - vit for making armours .
With the remaining points to lvl cap. You will need to decide on yourself. Cus it depends on varies sector.
For example - you want to make good arms faster and doesn't mind lower pot , raise tech . Or you want to make an arm that satisfied everyone needs , raise specific stats a d slowly lvl your profiency . When I say slowly .. I really mean the speed of lvling is slowwwww.
2nd method .
- only apply to those willing to spend real life cash on buying reset stat -(I used this method)
Leech till lvl 16 like method one .
After that , Buy 30+ stacks of s.art to reach lvl 50 .( For now..Cap lvl is still 50)
Raise all stats points to tech. And spend 1 million to buy materials and create the best arm. You will be able to raise you prof fast but with low pots . Just sell them as trash arm or process it into materials. Do this continuously till your actual profiency level reach the desire lvl u want . use the reset stat and reset the stats by adding all stats to the specific stats u want .Such as vit for armour . with this , you can reach the highest profiency in a short time and create a high pot armour which worth a lot of $$.

Remember ! With high tech , you pot will be so low that not many people will be interested . so.. There's no point making lots and lots of successful arm with low pots.
And slotted arms tend to have same pots or lower than other no slot arms. For example , my pots for p.arm are 36 but I got 34 pot for a slotted arm. This is common so... Don't worry too much about it.
-stats reset-
Be careful for those who are planning to reset their stats! Resetting stats each time can cause to minus 2 -3 stats point ! If you reset your stats , the profiency that was added by the tech will be change.
For example , you have 20 actual bs profiency and 60 tech stats point . This will give you a total of 50 profiency . However , if you change the tech stats to 20 . Your actual profiency won't be affected but your additional profiency which was added by tech will be change from + 30 prof to +10 . This means that you will be left with 30 profiency .
My time zone is GMT +8 . And I will be online mostly around 5-8 pm. You are welcome to ask me any question about bs. - you can probably see me shouting in Sofya city.

This is a fascinating post, but I'm afraid that it's completely lost on me since I do not have a Blacksmith and it is filled with jargon I don't understand. If you plan to write guides about your research it would help if you included screenshots or any basic information regarding the skill in order to help clarify your findings.

 

Sry about it. I will give a brief explanation in the beginning of the guide. Please recheck it after 10 minutes and give your comments ^_^

 

Post edit
-Added brief explaination about pot/prof/bs.-
-Added stats point management methods-
-Added stats reset information-

 

Nice post! It sums up how to build a bs.

A little info about adding stat : you can add stat even if the equipment's potential is not enough, but the success rate will be diminished. I'm not sure how proficiency lv affects the success rate.

And I do have a question.
I have a bs with 140 dex and 6 tech.
It gives +14 potential to bowgun but only +7 to bow.
Why is there a difference?

 

Nice guide! ill be looking for free armor

 

For now , I am pretty sure

I did not have this problem before since I used the second method I mentioned in the guide. However , I can guess why it happen .
This might be wrong but here are some guesses .
1# - It is a failed item.
2#- Different items have different pots. So maybe that's why .
3#- it might be a slotted item -
I know this doesn't help much since I don't know much about bows .
Please post it when you find the solution so future bs could know the cause.

For those who are reading this and have interest in finding me but couldn't find me . You guys can ask ez since she is one of my guild mates and surprisingly online for 6 hours a day -.-(or more)

 

Great post dino!

 

What if i reset my bs skill or use book of oblivion, will my bs prof will be reseted too?

 

Just the right timing .. Was about to add information about reset.
Checked the post after 5 minutes ^_^

 

#1 & #3 clearly not the case i made some good succesful bows. Succesful slotted and ns differs a bit (about 1-2 pot)in both bowguns and bows.
But the pot difference between bowguns and bows is 2 : 1.
So #2 is already in my mind.
But I'm also thinking there might be another build for bow? Mixture between dex & str maybe?

I don't wanna test it tho. Spent a lot time already for 2 bs. Don't wanna go there again lol.

 

Ye... Know how you feel. Those frustrating time when you level prof.....
Well, Blacksmith is still the most complicated skill. There are still a lot of things we doesn't know about it .
Let's discover all those during our journey to the top of bs! ^_^

 

Still no answer?

 

I a

I have alr written it on the guide.

 

Ive learned alot hir..thanks for this lovely guide..i might start consider making a blacksmith...

 

I was wondering how people can make 50-55 pot on their crafted items?

 

In the Upgrade Equipment skill, does the proficiency level affect it?

 

I am glad this guild is fulfilling its main purpose.

 

Good question. It is possible to raise pots by adding negative stats .However, to raise the pots to fifty . You need to put all three stats slot negative. In other words , no space to add anymore stats cus the stats slot available in an item is 3 . Which mean that no matter how high your stats is , it is just a number that is useless. Normally people do this in order to amaze or cheat people into buying their product . If you want
to achieve 50 pots without negative stats assisting , you need to wait till lvl 100 cap release and have pure stats with no tech .Hope this help you with the understanding of upgrade
