CRAFTING

Dalelands Beyond does not use official Neverwinter Nights 2 crafting system. It has its own system that may contain some elements from the official game. Crafting is a great way to tailor your own equipment to your taste, as well as establish yourself as a merchant willing to sell its products to other player characters or host on auction house. Welcome to Dalelands Beyond Crafting. Crafting essences requires the craft alchemy skill; faint, weak, glowing and radiant essences have different DC's. Enchanting requires the craft magical arms and armor feat. Feat Craft Wondrous Item is not required on our server and it does not serve any purpose. This guide has been written by Nexuzium.

Subject: Bad Crafting component descriptions Sat May 09, 2020 8:23 pm

I confirmed today that Dire Wolf Teeth don't yield Faint Water essences, contrary to what the IG description says.

Poison Stingers and Merrow Claws do not yield anything either even though they are described as crafting components. I'm sure there is one more of these, but I can't remember what it is.

Smithing skill requirements are total skill points including buffing spells, ability bonuses and equipment bonuses. They depend on the material being crafted and for Mithral/Adamantine, what you are crafting . Here is the list:

Material Armour Weapon
Iron 10 10
Cold Iron 15 15
Alchemical Silver 15 15
Darksteel 20 20
Mithral 30 25
Adamantine 25 30

Thank you @DaveFritz. I added your skill requirement into the first post.

Subject: Alchemy essence crafting skill levels Sun May 10, 2020 6:56 pm

The skill levels needed for essence crafting are as follows: 10 to extract a faint essence from reagents and +5 for each level of refining them. So

Extract Faint Essence 10 (correct value - post on Proboards is incorrect)
Make Weak Essence 15
Make Glowing Essence 20
Make Radiant Essence 25

As usual, the skill level is set by the total of skill points and any bonuses from abilities, spells and equipment

I figured out Sonic 1d4 damage.

Need:
2 weak air essences and 1 weak earth essence
1 Amethyst gem
lesser orb of sound spell
recipe 1d4 sonic damage

Works! Try it.

1d6 cold damage requires the spell Ice Storm, not Cone of Cold

Armor enchantments require the spell: Mage Armor
