Tinkering

Introduction

Tinkering is all about making tools, provisions, and other bits and pieces used by the other crafting professions. Tinkering requires a tinker's toolkit, a combined collection of various crafting tools, which is available from a provisioner.

Making metalworking tools

The tinker is responsible for making the tools required by the metallurgist, the blacksmith and the armourer to make tinted weaponry etc.

To make, for example, copper ingots a metallurgist requires copper tongs. To make copper weapons from copper ingots, a blacksmith requires a copper smiths' hammer. To make copper armour, an armourer requires a copper armourer's hammer. A tinker makes all these tools, as they may or may not be for sale from an NPC.

Important changes to tool creation recipes in patch-018

All coloured tongs are now created from 1 regular ingot. All hammers are now created from 1 regular ingot and 1 pole. The tinker no longer makes coloured tinker tools to then go and make coloured tools for other professions. All of these other tools are now made from untinted ingredients.

Coloured sewing kits are no longer creatable for the time being.

How to make your own brass golem

The GM tinker can now create her own pet: a brass golem. Ingredients required: 50 regular ingots, 50 brass ingots, 10 sheets of brass and 1 golem power crystal. The power crystal can be found perhaps on the corpse of another non-functioning golem, but finding a crystal undamaged will prove a difficult task.

Once the golem is crafted, an inanimate golem will be in the tinker's inventory. Drop this item on the ground and it will spring to life. If the tinker has no pet already, then this golem will become their new pet. If the tinker has a pet already, then the golem will be a neutral creature which will disappear after a time.

To feed your golem, use brass ingots on it. Think of it as repairing rather than feeding.
