I had it pretty high but for some reason its changed into... whatever the fuck this is. And can't be used for smithing anymore. And has no info on what it is. And can't be identified or investigated. What the fuck?
As for smithing itself, it feels more like the basis for a cool system than a cool system in and of itself.
Gloves almost always make the same gloves with a dif of one more or less PV and whatever the mats do.
Helmet makes some pretty decently strong ones, but nothing special.
Armor has made some really nice shit but I found a 30 PV light armor on the floor that out classed them all.
Shoes ain't worth making because 7league outclasses them.
Shields ain't worth making because shields are bad.
Can't make anything else.
Weapon wise, its annoying because the selection is limited and the need to go into fields to run around and grab swords just sucks the fun out of it. Making armor feels like a very natural process; you do nefia/hunting missions, you go into town, you make armor out of what you got. Weapons adds the extra step of ''rummage around fields for 1 or 2 swords if you lucky for the 30 gems you got in that last nefia''. Its just not very fun. The weapons are nothing special either. Its a nice way to sell skins at a profit in your pets shop at least.
