Important: This guide is a work in progress!
Crafting is an integral part of many MMOs and while it may be considered boring or time-consuming, it is very useful to level up your crafting skills early on. In this guide, I want to fill you in on the basics of crafting and how you can profit from it - even if you don't plan on crafting your own gear.
For your convenience, I will split up this guide into three sections, which will cover certain important aspects:
- The Skill Lines
What kind of crafting skills are there and how can I level them up?
- Equipment Level
How does my crafting skill matter in terms of equipment level?
- Crafting Styles
Which styles are there and how can I learn them?
- Traits
Why are traits important? How do I learn them?
Add-Ons
This Add-On starts research the moment you touch a crafting station. It considers FCOItemSaver. By default, only white quality items are used.
Via /researchexport [ww/bs/cloth] you generate a string (/researchcraft [a ton of numbers]) describing anything your character does not know yet. Inputting that string while at a crafting station will make the character autocraft anything they know.
Incredibly useful to quickly stock up on researchables!
