Crafting & Harvesting

Season Four: All of the crafting benches are available via /warp craft or by talking to one of the Caravan Masters. This season build kits have been removed, crafting and storage are encouraged to be in basements, harvest respawn has been lowered.

Overview

One of our big takeaways from last season and the profession system we tried to implement was the failure to have that system generate the sort of RP and "on screen" time with each other we had hoped for. Instead we saw clan bulking and profession swapping to ensure clans and groups had all the crafting stations they could need and not have any reason to use the hub(s). Not our goal and not conducive to any real RP interactions outside of those small clan groups. So this season, we are taking a different approach to not only consolidating the player base into one central hub, we are also consolidating the crafting this time around.

• Harvest Rates have been increased to base game.
• Crafting Times have been set to minimum.
• Crafting Costs have been reduced to base game.
• Thrall and Pet times are set over that of base game.
• Item Spoil Rate has been set to the lowest possible setting.

The town of Vargor near Telith's Island has all of the base game and Shani's crafting benches. There are more then enough for everyone to use.

However, some crafting stations can only be used by the clan you are in. These include the wheels of pain, the fashionist bench, and the dismantling bench. These, along with a few others, stables, camp fires, and clan benches are available for you to craft or purchase from the vendor in the OOC area.

Additionally, those resource producing stations like the Emberlight pens and all planters, have been removed to encourage players to gather their resources and avoid stock piling.

Crafting Stations

The following crafting stations are available to players for use in their homes

• All Wheel of Pain/Thrall Converting stations are craftable by players except for the Shani's Rope which is on a vendor in the OOC Area. We offer a selection of thrall crafting stations that are more compact then the base game ones. Please look on the construction hammer.
• Pet and mount conversion stations from Animal and Taming Places. Shani's Pet Bowl is for sale on the OOC vendor. The animal and taming places items are available on the construction hammer.
• Fashionist Bench and Fashionist armor stands only work for the clan they are placed in, so these are also available to players on the construction hammer.
• Dismantling bench is available to players.
• The campfire, large campfire, and bonfire are creditable for use by players.
• Most of the crafting stations needed for building parts not available on the construction hammer, such as the bath house, manor house and metal roof parts are available to be crafted and placed by players at their homes.
• Clan emblem station is available.
• Ravencrest small bird coop is craftable and useable as a mailbox for players.
