Crafting plays an important part in Kings and Heroes as it's responsible for making some of the most powerful items in the game. Upon creating a new character players a given Weaponsmith by default, however they are able to change to Armorsmith, Alchemy, Leathersmith or Tailor at will. A sixth craft, 'Enchanting' is planned but not yet available.

Currently a players crafting skill is linked to their character level. Simply multiplying your current character level by 10 will yield your crafting level, by example a level 21 character would have a crafting level of 210. It is believe that in future versions of the game a players crafting skill will be independent of their character level and will require advancing through crafting and deconstructing items.

Players may change crafting profession at any time, although the current warning of 'Players will lose all progression in their current crafting profession' may not be entirely applicable with crafting skill linked to character level. At worse you may lose some recipes.

In order to craft items you will need recipes. Recipes are obtained from your trainer for a price and each recipe has a crafting level requirement. You will also need raw materials to craft your item, these can be obtained through deconstructing items you've acquired from looting enemies in dungeons or by purchasing them from the General Materials merchant.

Blacksmith & Forge
Master Blacksmith Kadrick is another craft master and one that everyone has access to and is located in the Trade District of Everdale. Speaking with Kadrick will not replace your existing craft profession. Kadrick sells ingot recipes which anyone can use and allow for players to convert ore they find into ingots.

Beside Kadrick is the Forge. The forge is used to deconstruct items into their basic components which in turn can be used for crafting. Stand near the forge and push 'G' to open a new interface, from here you can click on items to break them down. BE CAREFUL with your clicks as there is no confirmation option and once items have been destroyed it's permanent. Hovering over an item in this mode will show you it's stats along with the green/red text indicating if it's better than the item you currently have equipped.

General Materials
Sometimes you simply wont have enough of any particular crafting material to make the items you want, other times you will need a specific item for crafting that cannot be found through deconstructing items. In this case you want to visit Naizil Fib. Naizil is a goblin merchant found in the Market are of Everdale, if heading that direction from the Tavern his tent is the second on the left and red in colour.
