Introduction to Weaponsmithy
The art of weaponsmithy reaches back to the First Age of Middle-earth. Those who expend a great deal of energy into this profession are sought after for their finest and even their more mundane works. Weaponsmithy is a difficult, but rewarding profession. As a new weaponsmith, it is best that you learn the basics of your craft.
Be careful! You will need to complete the correct recipe and deliver the correct item outlined in this quest.
You will need to execute a bronze weapon recipe and deliver the weapon. Failing to do so will force you to obtain new raw materials or to restart the quest after a 24-hour delay.
'If you wish to know more of weaponsmithing, speak with Aldith. You can find her with several of the other tradesfolk near the tall silo in the northern part of Lhan Garan.'
WARNING: You must make sure to have room in your inventory for this quest.
You should speak with the Novice Weaponcrafter to learn more about weaponsmithy.
Objectives
The Novice Weaponcrafter provided you with a crate full of ingredients that you can use to create a bronze weapon. Open the crate to get the ingredients.
Ingredients for Weaponsmiths are normally purchased from vendors or traded from players with the prospecting profession and, in some rare cases, the woodworking profession. You can also find ingredients on the Auction Hall.
Objectives
- Open the <rgb=#FF00FF00>crate</rgb> given to you by the Novice Weaponcrafter to collect the bronze ingots
Create a bronze sword, dagger, axe, great sword, or throwing axe, as instructed by the Novice Weaponcrafter.
To open your crafting panel, you can use the 'T' key or click on the crafting button (it looks like a hammer and anvil) in the lower left part of your UI.
Select the Weaponsmithy tab in the craft UI and find the proper recipe.
Remember: In order to execute a recipe, you must be near the proper facility. Weaponsmithy requires a forge.
Objectives
- Using the ingredients you have, forge a <rgb=#FF00FF00>bronze sword, dagger, axe, great sword, or throwing axe</rgb> at a <rgb=#FF00FF00>forge</rgb>
