Weapon Smithing for Pun and Profit!
Have you ever dreamed what it would be to slam a giant hammer onto your thumb which is resting on a molten hot metal thingy? Well if you have... you have come to the right place! We are getting ready to introduce DragonFable's first profession -- BlackSmithing!
Blacksmithing: Forge your own Weapons
That is right -- you will be able to unlock recipies and build some new weapons of your very own! (Or perhaps upgrade some of your existing ones to a higher level) We are very excited about this. Read below to see how to level your skill and get recipies that will allow you to craft items.
Leveling your skill
First, because leveling up your blacksmithing skill will be a brand new.... hmmm, I guess technically it is a minigame.... but it requires more thinking and less killing. While it is hard to describe, it may be the first trade skill learning game ever put into an RPG that requires you to create a pun. It is definately wierd enough to be something you would expect and enjoy from Cysero, Zhoom and I!
Recipies
As your skill increases you will unlock the ability to create new items with Blacksmithing (Swords, Staffs, Daggers, Maces, etc). You must go to specific place to create items. For this release, it will be Yulgar's forge. You will have a 100% chance of making any items you get the materials for.
Example:
Item A + Item B = Item C
Mithril + Sword Mold = Mithril Sword
As I am sure you can imagine... we can go wild with this. For the first Blacksmithing release there will be a reasonable selection of recipies you can unlock. Then we can add more and more! (Also, as I am sure you are thinking... if this goes over well, we can also add Jewlery Crafting, Sewing [for cloaks], Armor making, etc)
Check back again for more infomation as we build it. Have any ideas for combining items that are currently in the game? Let us know on the forums! (Actually, you guys are going to have a lot of ideas.... can someone maintaina list? Be sure to make things level specific since certain items are found in specific level areas)
