Crafting Basics

Crafting in RavenQuest is a complex but rewarding system. Here's how to get started:

1. Find a Crafting Station: Look for blue symbols on your map in major cities like Ravencrest
2. Gather Materials: Ensure you have the necessary raw materials
3. Refine Materials: Some raw materials need to be processed first (e.g., ore into ingots)

1. Access Crafting Menu: Approach the station and press ‣ to interact
2. Select Item: Choose the item you want to craft
3. Use your crafting skills as needed to complete a successful craft

The Crafting Process

Crafting involves managing several meters:

• Progress: Tracks your progress toward completing the craft successfully
• Quality: Tracks the quality of the resulting craft. Filling it once will yield a high quality item, filling it twice will yield a superior item, and filling it thrice will yield an artisan item
• Durability: The amount of durability available for your craft. If the durability runs out then the craft will be unsuccessful. Certain crafting skills can restore durability
• Labor: The amount of labor available for your craft. Every crafting skill consumes labor. Additional labor can be gained via passives, crafting gear and trinkets
• Condition: The current crafting skill modifier, which changes to a random condition every time you use a synthesis or touch crafting skill. "Normal" condition causes the crafting skill to happen at 100% effectiveness, "Good" condition causes the crafting skill to happen at 110% effectiveness, "Great" condition causes the crafting skill to happen at 120% effectiveness and "Excellent" condition causes the crafting skill to happen at 150% effectiveness.

💡 Pro tip: Balance your actions between progress, quality, and durability management for optimal results!

Crafting Skills

Use various skills during the crafting process:

• Synthesis: Increases progress
  • Using synthesis skills spends Labor and reduces the Durability in 1
  • Skills that generate more progress consume more Labor and have lower chances of success
• Touch: Improves craft quality
• Shine: improves craft condition
• Mend: restores durability
