Crafting is the fine art of taking a set of items and turning them into something greater than the sum of their parts.
Contents
Crafting an Item
Once everything needed is acquired, an item can be constructed out of any recipe at an Alchemy Machine. The process will expend the listed materials, Crowns, and Energy. Crafting always succeeds, and there is no concept of crafting "skill": the Alchemy Machine does all the tough work, and never fails! Technology is a wonderful thing.
Things Needed
In order to begin crafting, three things need to be located: a recipe, the materials detailed in the recipe, and an alchemy machine.
Recipe
Recipes are purchased from shops. The Bazaar in Haven has a Stranger with a small stock of basic equipment recipes. Hover over the recipes to see details on the item it will create. After a recipe is purchased it can be found in the Arsenal under Recipes. Once a recipe is learned, the associated item may be crafted as many times as desired.
In general, the cost of recipes increases by a constant factor of 5 as you go to the next star level:
- 1 star: 50 crowns
- 2 stars: 250 crowns
- 3 stars: 1250 crowns
- 4 stars: 6250 crowns
- 5 stars: 16500 crowns
Materials
Crafting materials can be found in The Clockworks. Certain recipes may also require other pieces of equipment, or even leveled up pieces of equipment. The items created by such recipes are typically very powerful. Press F5 or select Recipes from the Menu in the upper left corner to bring up the Recipe Manager. Here you can get more information on which materials are needed to create the item. Notice that the Recipe Manager can't create the item, for that you need the Alchemy Machines described below.
Alchemy Machine
Alchemy Machines are located throughout town areas. For example, Haven has an Alchemy Machine in the Bazaar, Arcade, and Main Square.
The cost of crafting an item depends on its star level, and generally doubles with each additional star.
- 1 star: 200 crowns/ 10 energy (dusk drop costs 200 crowns, 5 energy)
- 2 stars: 400 crowns/ 50 energy
- 3 stars: 800 crowns / 100 energy
- 4 stars: 1600 crowns/ 200 energy
- 5 stars: 3200 crowns/ 300 energy
Usually, this is much cheaper than buying the item pre-made from a shop, and crafting gives the added possibility of creating a unique variant (see below). Pre-made items increase in price as their star level increases- thus, items with a high star level are generally cheaper to craft than to buy pre-made.
- 0 stars: 200 crowns
- 1 star: 1,500 crowns
- 2 stars: 3,750 crowns
- 3 stars: 11,250 crowns
- 4 stars: 33,750 crowns
- 5 stars: 101,250 crowns
Unique Variants
When crafting an item, you will sometimes be informed that you have crafted a "unique variant." These items have a stat bonus.
The variant's bonus is described in the tooltip and marked with a star icon.
