:''The skill of Forging has been replaced with the skills of [[Weaponsmithing]] and [[Armoursmithing]].''


'''Forging''' allowed an individual to use [[commodities]] to craft [[armour]], shields, and [[weapons|weaponry]], and it was available to those of the three knight [[:category:classes|classes]]: [[Paladin]], [[Infernal]], and [[Runewarden]].
Forging allowed an individual to use [[commodities]] to craft [[armour]], shields, and [[weapons|weaponry]]. To begin the forging of a new item, a vacant [[forge]] had to first be located, and these could be found in all major [[city|cities]], as well as a few [[:category:villages|villages]]. After a [[coal]] was placed in the forge and lit in order to generate enough heat for crafting, the necessary commodities were then placed into the forge. Forging proceeded in two stages. First, the mass of commodities was formed into a crude weapon, shield, or set of armour; the second step was then refinement of the crude item. All forged items of the same type possessed equivalent statistics prior to refinement. Each refinement could randomly increase one statistic until the item was been fully crafted, at which point no further refinement was possible.

Using the [[Hammer of Forging]] [[artefact]] allowed a smith to create [[forged weapons|fully crafted items]] with fewer refinement steps and with greater potential for above-average statistics.


Use of the [[Hammer of Forging]] [[artefact]] allowed a smith to create [[forged weapons|fully crafted items]] with fewer refinement steps and with greater potential for above-average statistics.
The '''Forging''' skill was available to to members of the three knight classes: [[Infernal]], [[Paladin]], and [[Runewarden]]. With the advent of trade skills forging was split into [[Weaponsmithing]] and [[Armoursmithing]] and knights gained the new skill of [[Weaponmastery]].


The field of forging is now split into two trade skills: [[weaponsmithing]] and [[armoursmithing]].
