Crafting

==Crafting - what can I make?==
You can add enchantments to exiting items using a recipe, magic and ingredients and a feat, and you can create new items using a recipe, ingredients and crafting skills.
==Finding Recipes==
These are dropped by various creatures or found in chests. Some recipes might be available from vendors in the future.
==Mining==
You need a pickaxe, available from some merchants, and a good amount of Strength. Plus the Ore seam, of course.
Ingots and certain gems are both useful for crafting.
Some ores in the Underdark can only be mined by Drow.
==How can I craft?==
There are two main different branches to crafting.
Recipes -> crafting an item such as a darksteel longsword.
Enchantments -> applying a bonus property to an item (i.e. AC +2 or Constitution +2). You need the "Craft Magical Arms and Armor" feat as well as magical ability.
==Enchantments==
====Things Needed====
- The "Craft Magical Arms and Armor" feat
- Magical Ability ( the correct magic spell )
- The Item
- A certain amount of gold
- The recipe for the enchantment
- To be near the Crafting Bench
====To activate the enchantment====
Put the ingredients (eg fire essence) on the crafting bench.
Stand near the crafting bench.
Activate the “Recipe: Enchantment” on the item you wish to enchant
If you are missing any component, it will provide you with a message saying what you’re missing.
==Recipes==
====Things Needed====
- A certain number of ranks in the Craft Weopon, Craft Armour or Craft Alchemy skill (depending on the item)
- The mold (weopons) / recipe (alchemy)
- The Ingredients eg 3 cold iron ingots for a larger cold iron weopon.
- A certain amount of gold
- The recipe for the enchantment

====To make the item ====

Activate the Mold or the Recipe on the item you wish to enchant
If you are missing any component, it will provide you with a message saying what you’re missing.
==Where can I craft?==
At the moment benches are located:
- inside the General Store in Shadowdale
- in the Mage Store in Myth Drannor
- in the Underdark 
==Trouble Shooting==
Have you got the right spell memorized?
Are you clicking on the item to be enchanted, not on yourself?
