Crafting in Runes of Magic

In the Runes of Magic free mmorpg game there are several classic RPG game basics. There are quests and mob dungeons, there are different classes of characters that are playable, and there is a system in place of professions.

What Runes of Magic doesn’t have, unlike the others, is the ability to take on all of the professions and not just a select one or two. These professions are in two distinct categories: the gathering professions and the production professions. There is a processing system, but it is part of the gathering category and not a separate system.

Crafting in Runes of Magic
There are four tiers to the crafting system in Runes of Magic. All of the professions, both gathering and production, can be learned to the apprentice level. Only six of those professions can be at the craftsman level. Still only three can be raised to the specialist level and only one may be at the master level. The tiers are as follows:

Apprentice – Levels 1-20 of skill
Craftsman – Levels 21-40 of skill
Specialist – Levels 41-60 of skill
Master – Levels 61 and higher of skill

Recipes in Runes of Magic
Recipes can be found as drops from various mobs and monsters or found on the Auction House for purchase. They are non vendor items, so the recipe is not one that could be bought from an NPC. Typically these are for higher level items.

Recipes can be right clicked to be “read” and learned, if you meet the skill requirement for the recipe. It then will be available to be made or crafted. There are recipes for all of the production professions.

Production in Runes of Magic
There are six production professions currently in RoM. These are Alchemy, Armorsmithing, Blacksmithing, Carpentry, Cooking, and Tailoring.

Alchemy – To make anything the player will need to be at an alchemy station. For this profession the character will create various potions and buffs.
Armorsmithing – To make anything the player needs an armorsmithing station. For this profession the character will be making plate armor, chain armor, and leather armor.
Blacksmithing – To make anything the player will need to be at a Blacksmithing station. For this profession the character will be creating weaponry.
Carpentry – To make anything the player needs a carpentry station. For this profession the character will be making various wands, staves, and bows.
Cooking – To make anything the player will need to be at a cooking station. For this profession the character will be making food that will raise hit points and give temporary buffs.
Tailoring – To make anything the player needs to be at a tailoring station. For this profession the character will be creating cloaks and all cloth armors.
Gathering in Runes of Magic
There are three gathering professions currently in the RoM free online game. These are mining, herbalism, and woodcutting. There is a rumour that fishing will be implemented at a later date.

Mining – To mine you will be gathering ore from nodes. These minerals will be used for different armors and some alchemy recipes.
Herbalism – The player will be gathering herbs from plants. These are used for cooking, alchemy, and various other items.
Woodcutting – The player will be cutting logs from stumps found. These are used for different items such as weapons.
All gathering items also have a processing skill. Mining uses the smelting skill to turn the ore into nuggets, sand, and ingots. Herbalism uses extraction skill to make sap and extracts. Woodcutting will use the additional carpentry skill (not the same carpentry skill that is the production skill) to make lumber, timber, and planks.
