Reforging

Reforging improves weapons, armor, shields, and some equipment by applying affixes which grant bonuses to the item. The affixes possible will always mirror that which can appear in loot, but the options in reforging will be limited to that which make sense for Reforging to accomplish; for everything overtly magical, Enchanting applies. Only one reforge per item is possible.

Requirements:
Reforging an item requires the following:

1) The player has the Reforging Recipe Book in his inventory. It does not need to be learned, nor is it consumed on use.

2) The player’s Crafting Level (CL) is high enough to create the Reforging product.

Ingredients:
Reforging Ingredients fall into 4 general categories:

1) Weapons, Armor, Shields, or Equipment. This is the item to be reforged, and will receive the affix. Most affixes are restricted to specific item categories.

2) Metals, which are gained through loot or the pursuit of ore veins.

3) Leathers, which are derived from animal and monster hides, and are a base for many reforged items.

4) Other components, which can range from herbs, to gems, to miscellaneous loot items.

Process:
The process flow for Reforging is as follows:

1) Acquire a Reforging Recipe Book, which should be titled something like “Secrets of Steel, Volume I.”

2) Ensure the book is in your inventory; it does not have to be learned or consumed.

3) Approach the Reforging Table, and navigate the menus to see what recipes are known. Choose one you have the required ingredients and Crafting Level for.

4) Place all the necessary ingredients listed in the Recipe into the Reforging Table inventory. Return to the other prompt to continue the Formula.

5) If all the ingredients are in the table, and the crafting level is met, then creating the item should make the product appear in your inventory. The ingredients in the table will be consumed.

Progression:
CXP is granted when Reforging Weapons and Armor.
