Note these changes only apply to Armorsmith, Jewelcraft, Master Armorsmith, Master Weaponsmith, Master Jeweler, Master Alchemist, Master Poisoner, Master Potion-Maker, and Master Scroll-Maker.
Tool Changes
Master Production will no longer require various tools. Instead, they will simply require a Master Lab for that production. Anyone with a production lab and appropriate tools for the specific master production will have their lab upgraded to a Master Lab. Simply bring this card or a copy of the card to management or Head of Formal.
Master Crafting will no longer require various tools to craft. Master Armorsmith and Master Weaponsmith will have Master Smithing Station. This will cover anything needed for Silver and Higher. Master Jeweler will have Master Jeweler’s Kit. Please bring all tool cards to management or Head of Formal to convert to the new card.
For specialty woods (Rosewood, Darkwood, Ironwood, etc.) Master Armor smith and Weaponsmiths will have Master Woodworking Station.
Armor smithing skill will only require a Smithing Station. This is for crafting anything considered mundane.
Jewel crafting skill will only require a Jeweler’s Kit. This is for crafting anything considered mundane.
Phys reps for tools, labs, and forges are still required.
All labs, woodworking, and smithing tools will be accessible to the individual character. Such as a faerie that wants to create a gemstone item with Master Weapon smithing will only need Master Smithing Station. Nothing special is required. Faeries still have their limitations of not being to handle metals as it causes them great pain.
Players who have cards that were once used for any of the above skills can bring their cards to Management or Head of Formal/Crafting to have them exchanged for new cards. For players who are converting their labs into Master Labs please bring the lab card as well so the lab card will be re-written. Labs will retain all modifiers they previously had. Tools, forges, etc. that had special enhancements will remain separate as they are considered unique. The player will still receive an appropriate kit or station.
Ingredient Reduction
All Master Crafting (Armor, Weapon, Jeweler) and Master Production will no longer require an absurd number of ingredients. Master Production will have one ingredient that is in bold text or simply have one ingredient listed. That is the only required ingredient. Certain ingredients are being phased out entirely. Master Crafting will only require the appropriate ingot/plank needed for crafting. Quantities required will still be based on vessel. Higher materials will still require their bits of those fiery remnants. All alloy ingots and charcoal fluxes are being removed. Players who have these ingredients can bring their tags to either Management or Head of Formal/Crafting to trade them out for useful ingredients prior to game on.. This may be emailed in advanced with a list of all ingredients and quantities to cerroneth@gmail.com and cerro.formal@gmail.com
Fitting Changes
Since the introduction of Fittings many have expressed their disdain for the high cost of crafting these fittings. To aid in that we will also be changing their ingredients required as well as introducing a way to extend their duration. Extending the duration can only be performed by a Master Jeweler. Some fittings will have their usages reworked as to help with the power gap from first level to maximum level recipes. Existing recipes will be changed out once management is caught up with adding all formal scrolls and recipes to the database. Any new fittings sold in-play through plot or out-of-play in raffles or Black Friday Sale will be updated versions.
All Fittings require a special component and a metal or non-metal equivalent ingot/plank. The appropriate metal and non-metal equivalent ingot/plank will be listed on the recipe with -OR- written between them. To use the non-metal equivalent, which is the specialty woods, will still require the training for the specialty woods.
Recipe Change out
With the changing of tools and ingredients we plan to update all existing recipes. Please email management at cerroneth@gmail.com of a list of all crafting and production recipes that you have. We will work to have them ready by the January 2023 event. For any unique or flawed crafting or production recipes please send a copy in addition to the list. Do be mindful of file size before emailing. If needed, a link to cloud storage (google drive, dropbox, box, onedrive, etc.) of the picture/scan will be acceptable.
