| Crafting & Gathering Guide Crafting and gathering in Blade and Soul is a sub-job which players use to obtain rare materials and proceed to craft them into items such as weapons, bo-pae (soul shields in NA) recovery potions, food and even assist in weapon evolution. There are a total of 14 gathering and crafting guilds; 7 for crafting and 7 for gathering. Players will have the choice of establishing a contract with 2 of each type of guild. However players will also have to make sure that the guilds are related, as certain guilds will produce items which are of value to others. As on overall crafting system, you are bound to find that several of the professions intertwine. To make a contract with crafting and gathering guilds, head to the allocated NPC's which are located in every 'central hub' of each location: Dragon Forest = Emerald Village, Great Desert = Tomun Inn, Moonwater Plains = Windy Pig Union, Silverfrost Mountains = ??? Although some crafting guild are scattered throughout other locations, these central towns are host to all crafting and gathering guilds.These 'guilds' are as follows: Gathering

Crafting & Gathering Process
The gathering and crating process in blade and soul is unique, but simple. When you make a contract with your chosen guilds you will most likely recieve a gathering quest. This quest will instruct you to gather a sample material for your guild. The way this system works is the player will have to gather a sample of the material to unlock it and make it available to gather. Then the player will be free to gather the material but selecting it in the list and clicking 'process'. You will then have to wait the time it takes for the NPC's in you gathering guild to gather the material for you (this time is preset). For a step-by-step walkthrough of this process refer to the steps below:
Step 1) Gather a sample of your desired material. This sample is found throughout the whole world of blade and soul but different materials will have specific locations you will have to travel to to gather it.
Step 2) Your material will now be unlocked. Open the crafting tab by pressing the "L" key and find the material you wish to gather. Note that you must have the required gathering level.
Step 3) Click the 'Process' button, your material will now have a cooldown timer that indicates the time it will take for your gathering guild to gather the specified item.
Step 4) When your mateiral is gathered it will notify you in the "G&C" tab at the bottom of your screen. Press the "Allow" button. Note that you may also request this item again with the same button that has now been changed to "Request".
Step 5) Crafting with these materials uses the same process (except you don't need a 'sample'). Open the L tab and press process on the item you wish to craft. WHen it is crafted it will appear in the same "G&C" tab for collection.
Note: I hope this guide will be of use to you guys for NA release! I will probably expand on this guide and talk about the demand of each type of crafter. Let me know if this helps and tell us your thoughts on this system!  | |
