Crafting higher quality gear
so, this is just to get things straight:
- I got weapon upgrades III or something.
- I can forge MKIII and Catun No. 2 Weapons.

Yet , no matter what weapon I chose to craft, I always end up with that stinky rusting looking thingy.

here´s my question: will the weapons actually become what the receipe says ? higher damage, etc. ? or is my game just bugged ?

will the weapons get better when my characters skill gets higher ?

thanks in advance

Right now My main character's skill is higher than the bench I have so every once in a while he will make a weapon higher than the bench is equip to do. Build up your skill, plus its a way to make money selling to shops

also there are like critical successes and skill penalties if you craft at night/ in darkness.. so my armor-smith clone makes masterwork gear during the day but at night its high / specialist even though he stands in the light

ok. its like that. its incredibly rewarding i think. so waiting for that skill to get into the higher tiers is actually worth it.

problem though is that it´s hard to forge as many weapons to get that far. once you are there, the enemies and battles you fight are much much harder. so i tend to buy / salvage the better gear instead of waiting for my weapon-smith.

which is sad, but also good.
i think rare, masterpiece weapons should be like that: rare.
any weapons forged en mass foor an army should and would never be of the masterful kind I assume.

It based on your research you done. You can make 3 tiers per weapons that I currently know of. I think there a 4th tier just haven't gotten stuff to research it.

100% Day or night have 2 lights over the station not 1
For the fastest and least waste black chain 90 arms 100 Stom/chest "Mastercrafted" highest
Weapons ones that take the most time to make. Yea it take time to produce really good weapons skills but it worth it. Just have 1 person make the weapons he well be 60 in no time. Sell off other stuff or in my case I burn them millions opon millions cats worth a week.

Ever try to sell a 30-45k sword

yeah.. selling weapons is a PITA as most traders don´t have enough cash to make it worthwhile. also, once up that high in gamelevel / status, money is no longer an issue at all.

I mostly do trading just for ♥♥♥♥♥ and giggles. and kinda for Roleplay effect.

I would advise you to pick 1 or 2 guys to be crafters. Don't set them to gear right away. Have them raise skill off of armor plate and chainlink making. That cuts back on prototype and shoddy gear which takes up space and sells for very little.
