Can the Dev explain the diffetences between Craftmanship & Magic Cft.?

[Kel]

I hope in later dev talks, developers can explain more in detail about craftmanship & magic craftmanship thus we could choose proper armors to wear /proper food to eat when making specific items.

If anyone of you has made some research, will you be willing to share your findings here?

I want to know the following info:

1. Usually what kind of items/parts need craftmanship more? and which need magic. cft more?

2. Is there a job preference of craftmanship or magic cft? Or the preference is only related to the item you are making?

3. Is it better to balance your craftmanship and magic cft attributes (ie to make both as high as possible) than making one of them especialy higher than the other when making most of the items?

4. When trying to bold items, is one of the attribution more important? Or it still depends on what you are making?

Is it better to balance your craftmanship and magic cft attributes (ie to make both as high as possible) than making one of them especialy higher than the other when making most of the items?

More in detail I would like to know:

Does a recipe use both craftmanship and magic craftmanship or only one of them.

When trying to bold items, is one of the attribution more important? Or it still depends on what you are making?

And where does control fit into this. It's possible to get control or craftmanship pieces at R50 but I have no idea which one to pick for what purpose.



Offtopic: Does Phantom Knights ring any bells for you Kel? Asking because of your name and people I used to know.

Go to Loadstone and chech ask the DEV's. They explained it their.

[KumaAkuma]

Not thoroughly enough.

[Frebaut]

Ya thats what i thought when i read it also. Thats all the info we have on it. Having the dev's give good info instead of vaig info would be nice. Not sure what Dev tag needs to be in the title but try one and see if they answer back.

With all the changes their making to the game the info may not br correct. So they might be holding off till the changes.

I agree, KUDOS!

If you guys want this information you need to make 2 things happen. Hit the "LIKE" button on the main posters page and also right a comment giving Kudos to the post.

I think is better to test them your self, that one part of the game. To be able to achieve something on your own discovery make it feels awesome.

Importance for all Classes (Grinding)

1) Control
2) Craftsmanship
3) Magic Craftsmanship

Without Control, you may progress quicker, but you are more often going to go unstable and then lose 30+ durability quickly if your Control is too low. Craftsmanship is what helps the progress move along quicker, too low of craftsmanship causes you not to get as many "Success 20%" but more "Success 11-13%". Magic Craftsmanship is for HQing products, the higher your Magic Craftsmanship the more "Quality" you gain per success. But remember, without Control & Craftsmanship, Magic Craftsmanship is a waste. Because unstables will quickly halve your quality on a Chaotic Explosion.

I don't think certain recipes are any easier with higher magic craftsmanship vs craftsmanship. I have done a lot of crafting and almost every crafting class is Rank 40 or above. I hope this information helps.

Magic Craftsmanship is for HQing products, the higher your Magic Craftsmanship the more "Quality" you gain per success.

HQing items is magical? It just would be nice if the developers gave some crystal clear answers. Facts, not statements about what someone "thinks" it might do.


Also recipes have a minium requirement of craftmanship and/or magic craftsmanship and/or control. Those are things that shouldn't be hidden, but should be listed in the recipe (for example in the windowthat tell you how many shards you need).

Hmm... I highly doubt about that:

Q. What do the crafter-related attributes Craftsmanship, Magic Craftsmanhip, and Control each do?
A. Among recipes in the game, there are those for which the rate of progress and chance of success are increased by higher Craftsmanship, and those for which they are determined by Magic Craftsmanship. Control helps to reduce the occurrence of aetherial sparking (see below), and exerts its influence over both types of recipes just mentioned.
All recipes, however, have set attribute requirements. Attempting a recipe with attributes below those required will result in lessened progress and quality, even for successful actions.

I guess it's kind of discoverable. You just have to try out recipes and guess. Is that magical? Do I use any sort of magic to craft this one? (See for example Paralyzing Dagger, Shards/Crystals/Clusters,...)
At least this is what I do and always worked.

See ya!
