Tinkering: Tools of the Realm

Tinkering is the foundational skill required by all other craftsmen. Using Tinker's Tools and iron ingots, tinkerers fabricate:

  • Crafting Tools: Smith hammers, tongs, sewing kits, mortars & pestles, saws, planes, scissors, and shovels.
  • Adventuring Gear: Lockpicks, sextants, spyglasses, clocks, and key rings.
  • Mechanical Components: Gears, springs, clockwork assemblies, and barrel hoops.

Trapped Pouches & Lockpicks

Tinkerers provide essential utilities for dungeon crawlers and PvP combatants:

  • Lockpicks: Used by thieves and treasure hunters to open locked chests.
  • Trapped Pouches (Anti-Paralyze): By combining a pouch, dart/explosion trap, and the Magic Trap spell, players carry trapped pouches. When paralyzed by an enemy mage, opening the pouch detonates the trap for 1 damage, immediately breaking the paralysis!

Carpentry: Furniture & Add-ons

Carpenters shape timber into functional home furnishings and defensive structures using saws and wooden logs:

  • Containers: Wooden boxes, wooden chests, and heavy crates.
  • Furniture: Chairs, thrones, large dining tables, book shelves, and armoires.
  • House Add-ons: Deeded installations for player homes including:
 * Forges & Anvils
 * Spinning Wheels & Looms
 * Training Dummies & Pickpocket Dips
 * Water Troughs & Stone Ovens

The Anatomy of a Potion Keg

One of the most profitable items in the economy, a Potion Keg stores up to 100 potions of a single type, saving massive amounts of weight and backpack space! Constructing a potion keg requires collaboration between Carpentry and Tinkering:

  1. **Barrel Staves** (Carpentry, 3 logs)
  2. **Barrel Hoops** (Tinkering, 5 iron ingots)
  3. **Barrel Tap** (Carpentry, 2 logs)
  4. **Barrel Lid** (Carpentry, 4 logs)
  5. Combine all parts with an empty barrel to craft a completed Potion Keg!
