The Blacksmithing Skill governs forging metal into items and objects. It covers bars, nails, cookware, tool heads, blades, armour and full weapons. It belongs to the Crafting group.

Blacksmithing is a powerful but demanding skill. At the high end, a smith can forge plate armour, axes, sledgehammers, swords and maces. Forged tool heads and blades work just as well as the ones found in the world. That makes the skill a lasting answer once looted tools wear out. The road there is long, with workstations to build, charcoal to burn and many books and magazines to read. It is a late-game skill that rewards patience. The Blacksmith starts with a strong head start, and the Blacksmith Knowledge trait adds two levels.

How to Level Blacksmithing


Blacksmithing experience comes from forging recipes at a forge or furnace. Each recipe gives experience, and higher-level recipes give much more.

The first steps start at level 0. Logs go into a charcoal burning pile to make charcoal. Crude tongs or proper tongs are needed to handle hot metal. With scavenged metal, a primitive forge, tongs and a hammer, small iron bands can be forged. They are a simple, repeatable way to earn the first levels. Forging a simple blade gives even more at the same level.

Metal comes from scavenging and from breaking down metal objects, especially wrecked cars. Iron and steel are the two main metals. Iron serves for simpler goods, while many top items demand steel.

Charcoal goes into every recipe, often in large amounts. A charcoal burning pile or charcoal burning barrel turns wood into charcoal.

The tape From Ore to Store gives a good boost. Watching only pays off in the first three levels, unless experience spills over from a level-up.

The Crafty and Fast Learner traits each raise the experience rate to 130 percent. The Slow Learner trait lowers it to 70 percent.

Read the matching skill book before mass producing anything. Nails, bands and bars eat up charcoal and metal, so each batch should earn the most experience it can. A smith who forges at the wrong book tier wastes rare materials.

Climbing to the top levels takes weeks or months of game time. The forge, the tools and a steady supply of charcoal all need setting up first. Many smiths start with a primitive forge and move to better workstations once stone, charcoal and leather are steady.

Car wrecks hold the most scrap. Dismantling them gives metal for the forge. Junkyards and parking lots hold many wrecks close together, which makes a scrap run far more efficient.

The XP each Blacksmithing level asks for, with the running total from level 0.

Blacksmithing Level Effects


Each level opens new forging recipes. Level 1 brings nails, coins, tongs, a small knife, the smithing hammer head and the large hook. Level 2 adds pans, trays, fine cutlery and a masonry trowel. Level 3 brings buckets, cooking pots, kettles, fishing hooks and a long simple blade.

Level 4 is a big step for tools. Hammer heads, chisels, files, forceps, pliers, saws and scissors all open. Kitchen knife and meat cleaver blades arrive, along with the first metal armour pieces.

Level 5 adds the drill, wrench, lantern, hinges, jar lids and the hunting knife blade. Level 6 brings the axe head, spade head, metal helmet and metal body armour. Level 7 opens mace heads, pickaxe heads and shortsword blades.

Level 8 brings the sledgehammer head, wood axe head and coat of plates body armour. Level 9 opens the crowbar, the machete blade and the sword blade.

Forged tool heads and blades are as good as the ones found in the world. Improvised weapons made at the forge come out at high quality too. That makes the late levels a lasting answer to worn out loot. A high-level smith can replace axes, hammers, saws and knives whenever they break.

Many recipes also need a magazine or schematic. Everyday Smithing, Blunt Forge, Small-Scale Smithing and American Bladecraft teach tools and blades. The armour magazines and the Armor Schematic teach metal armour.

Blacksmithing Skill Books


The Blacksmithing Skill Books come in five volumes. Each volume speeds up experience for two levels. Blacksmithing I: "Elementary Forge Practice" covers the first two levels. Blacksmithing V: "The Complete Encyclopedia of Metallurgy" covers the last two. Reading each volume just before its levels gives the most benefit.

The five volumes, the levels each one speeds up, the XP bonus while those levels are trained, and how long each takes to read. Reading times are game time at the default two minutes a page. Sitting down and wearing Reading Glasses each cut the time by a tenth, the Fast Reader trait cuts it by about a third, and Slow Reader adds a third.

Blacksmithing Starting Levels


The Blacksmith begins with four levels of Blacksmithing. That start opens tool parts and cookware straight away. The Blacksmith Knowledge trait adds two levels at character creation.

A head start shortens a very long climb. It lets a smith reach useful tools long before a fresh character would.

These occupations and traits start a character with levels in Blacksmithing.

Blacksmithing Recipes


At the lowest level, the skill covers basic metal stock. Scrap becomes chunks, bars, rods and bands. Iron is extracted from bloom, and gold and silver bars can be split. Simple blades, spoons and key rings round out the start.

Low levels add nails, coins, tongs and smithing tools, then cookware such as pans, pots, kettles and buckets. Middle levels bring most tool heads and blades, plus the first metal armour.

The high levels make heavy weapons and full armour. Sledgehammer heads, wood axe heads, crowbars, machete blades and sword blades come last. Articulated armour pieces and the coat of plates finish the armour line.

Blacksmithing draws on several other skills. Pottery makes the crucibles and molds that metalwork needs. Masonry supplies stone blocks for the workshop. Welding cuts metal stock, and the forge reforms it. Carving supplies wooden tongs early on. A smith with friends in these trades climbs much faster.

Hammers, tongs and an anvil form the core kit. Entry recipes make punches, tongs and hammer heads, so a smith can build up a full set of tools from the forge itself.

Every recipe that asks for Blacksmithing or trains it, one tab per level asked.

Notes


  • Forge small iron bands at level 0 for easy early experience.
  • Charcoal goes into every recipe, so keep a burning pile busy.
  • Wrecked cars give plenty of scrap metal.
  • Steel is needed for many top-end items.
  • Magazines and schematics teach many forging recipes.
