Weaponsmith Archive

anyone know where i can find a list of weaponsmith items and how much xp they give, so i can figure best way to grind to get to master weaponsmith fastest?

if no list, any suggestions?, i just got novice 10 min ago

just add up all the recorces used and times it by two and you will have your exp points.

If you have money (2nd Character or redoing primary), or have access to a veriaty of resources on your server I recomend macro grinding barrels to 0-1-2-0 then from there collect the rsources and craft Heavy warheads. They use a veriaty of resources but give over 700xp a pop. you'll need about 6k polimer, hydron-3 gas, 12k radioactive, 25k skevon gas, 25k thorium steel, and 75k or so of regualr steel. I know people will disagree with this but I can't stand sittig still doing clickety click click macros for 30hours, and It takes a while to get the 400k+ steel you need to do regualr macro grinding. I can get about 120k of xp in and hour. you'll run through about 3days worth of harvesting in about a hour. Like I said this is how I did it, it just fits my personality better, and I'm sure I'll get some one will post saying I'm an idiot and being too technical by not just wearing out 2 mice by doing 1000 clicks a min for 24hours.

How can you make a macro for weapon crafting? Elle/Elz

Nah...Im actually intrigued...wish I even thought of that...and very useful to the future of my character...thank you

curious though...why grind to 0-1-2-0? Why not just 0-0-2-0? Just curious if a typo or some unknown reason (to me)

I think he wants u start with doing0,1,0,0 so you can make "projektile rifle barrel". The barrel will make it easier for you to reach 0,0,2,0

Since I actually want to learn the profession a bit before becoming a Master (and not be one of those smiths that whine about resources and experimentation once they hit it after 13 hours of grinding) I started with 0-1-0-0 and then went 0-1-0-2 before continuing.

I take my levelling semi-slow (I'm figuring two-three weeks) and make sure to learn, make actual weapons and survey along the way.

If you want to do heavy warheads and don't already have the resources, it'll take weeks to months before they all spawn again. If you did ten minutes a day on proj pistol/proj rifle/curved sword you'd make master long before you would if you waited for the warhead spawns.

------------------------HERE IS WHAT TO DO------------------------



896000 Total Weapon Crafting Experience (WCXP)



Option #1

Metal Staff

35000 WCXP to Intermediate Firearms Crafting

398 crafts (35000/88)



Blaster-rifle Barrel

861000 WCXP to Master Weaponsmith

7487 crafts (861000/115)



Option #2

Metal Staff

35000 WCXP to Intermediate Melee Weapons Crafting

398 crafts (35000/88)



Two-Handed Axe

861000 WCXP to Master Weaponsmith

6378 crafts (861000/135)



Another Option is to do Heavy Warhead Mechanisms. Here is the BEST way to get there.



Option #3

Metal Staff

84000 WCXP to Advanced Munitions Crafting

955 crafts (84000/88)



Heavy Warhead Mechanism

812000 WCXP to Master Weaponsmith

1098 crafts (812000/740)



Some say to do Two-Handed Axe (1000), Blaster-rifle Barrel (0100), or Projectile Rifle Barrel (0100) 1st then grind to Advanced Munitions (0020) with that

but you will be doing more crafts that way.



Metal Staff

35000 WCXP to Intermediate Melee Weapons Crafting

398 crafts (35000/88)



Two-Handed Axe

84000 WCXP to Advanced Munitions Crafting

623 crafts (84000/135)



Thats 1021 Crafts to get to Advanced Munitions but option #3 only takes 955. Plus you need more kinda resources to do Two-Handed Axes. Doing Blaster-rifle

Barrel or Projectile Rifle Barrel will take even more crafts then then Two-Handed Axe.
