Upgrading Items

When you make an item, whether it be a weapon or armor, you will make a basic level item. If you use the same tool on the item again you will be able to upgrade the item. Upgrading a normal item requires 15 skill points above the normal to make the item and half the ingots required to smith the item. Upgrading a quailty item will require another 10 skill points and half the base ingots to smith the item. For example, a halberd requires 85 skill and 40 ingots to make. To upgrade to a quality halberd you will need 100 skill and 20 ingots. To upgrade to an exceptional halberd you will need 110 skill and another 20 ingots. Success will upgrade a normal item to Quality and a Quality item to Exceptional. If you fail on any upgrade you have a 1 in 10 chance of destroying the item. Even if the item is not destroyed you will have lost some of the ingots required to upgrade the item. A recent change now allows you to select the ingots that you want to use to upgrade the item with. You can have the ingots in any bag in your pack and you are no longer limited to just using iron ore. If you wish to use your blue steel ore to upgrade the item you made, you can.

Laminating

Use your smith's hammer on the item you wish to color and then select the type of ore you wish to use to laminate the item with. This can be only be done with metal magical items, and works even on magical silver items. Laminating an item requires Blacksmithy at 90% or better and half the ingots normally required to make the item. For Example, Platemail Breastplates require 60 ingots to make and would require 30 ingots to laminate. When you try to laminate an item there is a 0.1% that you will fail and destroy the item and a 10% chance that you will fail and just use up ingots. The chance for failure is completely random and not based on skill.

Repairing Items

Repairing an item brings the item back to its crafted maximums. The item's effectiveness is not changed, however the long term health is. The overall life of an item is decreased based on the amount of repairs that need to be made. Player made items will last longer than magical items because of their mystical/mysterious natures.

Repairing them uses a skill based check. 80 skill translates to an 80% chance of success. Failure to repair the item will cause some very minor damage.

Smelting Gold

Gold is the only item that uses Blacksmithing for smelting. When you smelt gold you will get 1 gold ingot per 100 gold. Don't worry if you accidently smelt a pile of gold. Just sell a gold ingot to a vendor and get coins back. The only reason for smelting gold is for making wands and jewelry.
