Gear Crafting
Master a craft, shape your equipment, and grow in power
In Call of Gjallahorn, the gear crafting system allows players to create increasingly powerful equipment. Crafting is not instant mastery — it requires time, dedication, and expertise.
To craft equipment, you must learn one or more crafting professions. Each profession specializes in a distinct type of gear, with its own strengths and playstyle focus.
Crafting Professions
- • Tailoring — The art of creating lightweight magical gear. These items provide low armor but strong bonuses to SP and supportive statistics, ideal for casters, supports, and ranged classes relying heavily on skills.
- • Leatherwork — The craft of balanced equipment, offering solid DEF and bonuses focused on increasing sustained DPS.
- • Armorsmith — The mastery of heavy armor. These pieces provide high defensive power and survivability, at the cost of slightly reduced mobility.
- • Weaponsmith — The art of forging sharp and powerful weapons, focused on raw physical efficiency.
- • Arcanesmith — The craft of magically infused weapons, capable of producing unique and special bonuses unavailable through other professions.
Both Weaponsmith and Arcanesmith can craft all weapon types. However, weapons crafted by Arcanesmiths may receive special magical effects that set them apart.
Craft Success & Enchantments
Crafting has a 100% success rate. There is no risk of failure. However, crafted equipment can randomly receive enchantments.
These enchantments have a random power level ranging from 1 to 3.
If you want more detailed information about enchantments, you can visit the Enchanter page on the wiki.
You can also speak directly to the Enchanter in-game, who will list all possible enchant bonuses before you commit to further upgrades.
Crafting Progression
The first crafting skill is free to learn and given from the Main quest. But otherwise, to learn a new crafting skill at level 1, you will need to pay 100z. Each crafting profession has its own progression, from level 0 to level 10. To advance to the next level, you must first reach the experience cap of your current level.
Once the cap is reached, you may request a level-up from the Crafting Masters. Progression takes time and effort, and it is strongly recommended to focus on a single profession at first.
Crafting Catalogues
At any time, players can purchase a Crafting Catalogue for 1 Zeny per profession.
A catalogue allows you to preview all craftable equipment for that profession, neatly sorted by required skill level. This makes planning your progression and future crafts much easier.
Recycling Unwanted Gear
Not every crafted item will match your expectations. If an equipment’s enchantments are really not to your liking, you are not forced to keep it.
A special NPC called the Recycler can buy back crafted equipment for a small amount of Zeny.
This feature makes crafting a viable way of making zeny, by crafting exclusively, and selling the best equipements you have made to other players. For some it will just be a way to clean the inventory and recover a bit of value from unwanted results.
Crafting professions demand patience, grinding, and long-term investment — but those who master them will gain access to powerful equipment and significant wealth.
