    Hi guys, im new in this shard and i reach 100 black few time ago.

    i dont understand how to craft magical power weapons, its possible with the normal hammer smith or something special is needed?
    im talking about iron weapons only, not other materials that need runic hammer (i think ahah).

    Thanks in advice

    It is not possible to craft iron magic weapons as a GM blacksmith.

    The only craft-able magic weapons are runic, starting at Dull Copper and going up to Valorite. Each ore type require a runic hammer of the corresponding colored ingots.
    Dull Copper and shadow are very common, and not very desirable.
    Copper and bronze considered starting weapons.
    Golden is equivalent of using power/vanq magic weapons.
    Agapite is slightly stronger then Vanq
    Verite and valorite are not very common, and very expensive.

    ok...i had understand this, about runic hammers.

    i see in the vendors and on the players a lot of iron color weapons that have powers...are not colored weapons, so i think are not crafted with runic hammers because are in iron....what i wrong?

    Those iron magic weapons you see are not crafted, they must be looted from monsters.

    The iron magic weapons on vendors are looted from monsters or treasure maps etc.


    Edit - As the good Dr pointed out above.

    any help to cut the failure chances when craft? like using greater strength potion or something else...
    i think blacksmith is a strength required skill..

    Strength only comes into play before 100. The higher your strength the bigger the difference between real skill and shown skill. Once you're 100 though it doesn't get any higher. Some things just have high fail rates, ie Plate/Bone armors even at GM

    And if you craft an Exceptional doesn't that add to the magic modifier damage? Like +4? So, an Exceptional Agapite is much better than Vanq?
