Tradeskill guild

[Dacarlo]

Greetings fellow crafters I'm wondering if I'm one of only 2 or 3 crafters on the server making items. I've only ever seen a couple of people using tradeskills. The tradeskill journal shows only a few people in the top 10 of some skills and none at all in others.

I've gotten myself to 6th Gemsmithing (almost 7th) and have a couple of other skills on my wizard which are growing (Enchanting, scribing & tinkering). The main reason for this diversity is self sufficiency since there doesnt seem to be many smiths online for barter or mutual works.

Is there a guild I can join?
If not would people be interested in creating one with me?

I would propose those in the guild help build all manner of items together and share in the profits, both in cash terms, items and experience.

Whos up for it?

OOC))I think the reason you don't see many crafters these days is that they are waiting for the new system to be implemented. And I'm guessing it's going to be sometime before it will be online.

Flin here used to craft quite a bit. But since joining the KS, he has business that keep him from the forge these days. I do have one PC that would like to start crafting, but...umm...*coughs* he's not really allowed in town these days...hehe

But what you propose about this guild is a great idea. There was a family of PCs that had something like this, but they have not been seen in quite some time.

i agree, a guild would be great, i have 1 PC that is a fairly good crafter, in many crafts, and i have just started to craft with my other Dwarf (surprise) but i hope we do get enough people to make a guild work.

>charac< Hey rindel, can you hold this ingnot for me while i smack it with my hammer...i propmise not to miss

Hmmm a new system? Will the ranks I've currently earned carry over? Or has my hard work been in vain?

Either way who wants to setup and mining operation?

Last we heard, your ranks will not carry over, so in that sense, yes your work would have been in vain.

I've been doing Smithing and Tailoring.

With the low-magic world, I've hit the top of the Smithing it seems. I can make +1 enchanted weapons, but to do +2 requires metal that is very difficult to find (i've only heard about titanium and mithril spawning in some mines very rarely). And making armor hits a snag because the better items require mithril.

I've been thinking about expanding, but still if I keep working at many things, I will have spent a lot of time and for only a short time will it still be worth it.

[jekyl81]

um...i think the crafters would like to have some input from the staff, are we smithys going to loose our crafting points? or can we keep our hard earned crafting skils? comments are most wanted.

This should answer your question

But I wouldn't worry about it. It's more than likely a long way off and when it does happen, I'll be guessing most crafters will like the new system a lot better.

yes, but i was hoping to know if it will be in this milenia? i noticed that the post that said it was coming was a bit old, so it would be logical to thing that it will be implemented sooner rather than later, and thats why i asked the staff to comment on the progres, just to get a rough estimate of how many weeks,moths,years will it take to get it up and running?

[jekyl81]

and i am looking foward to the new craft skills, just am overly exited so i'm not really good at waiting unless i know a more presice date of complition of the new trades.
