How crafting works
- Each piece needs its diagram, the listed materials and a craftsman of high enough skill.
- Higher tiers usually require the previous tier's piece as a component.
- Diagrams are found through Scavenger Hunt quests; follow the treasure-hunt objectives in your journal.
- Read each diagram's required level and materials in your inventory before travelling to a craftsman.
