Crafting stats

[mwlodar]

Can anyone kindly direct me to a link that explains what exactly craftsmanship, control, and magic craftsmanship do? Also, I'd like to know which stats (str, vit, mind, etc.)to use with which class.

Craft., M.Craft, and Control : see here

Base stats : see here (scroll to the bottom)

That info is a tad old, so you might find some incorrect information there (such as the stuff mentioning +2/+3 items), but the core of what it's saying is still accurate.

Thx for the reply!! The links were exactly what I needed. My only other question is how do you know which stat (craftsmanship or magic craftsmanship) to use with which recipe. Is there some kind a database? so far i've been stacking control because I know that helps all recipes. I'm not sure what do to with the other stats.

Supposedly M.Craft. is more for "magical" items and Craft. is for "physical" items, but aside from that, it's difficult to say. We haven't been given any official specifics other than that, and it's difficult to determine which synths are which, so outside of a few select recipes, your guess is as good as anyone else's.

One possibility that I admit is very likely is that all my recipes need a mix of both, though certain ones may be weighed more to one or the other. Due to the mention of attribute requirements which damage progress and quality for being below them, I believe it's more important to ensure you have enough of what you need, rather than having a lot of what you need. So, what I generally do is look for a good amount of both types of craftmanship, with control thrown in where I can.
