How is forging only tailoring certain players? You have every ability to learn to forge, and several experienced forger are giving classes for those that have not been able to figure it out. I just don’t get your statement at all… Making chisels with the venerable gum is probably one of the easiest forges to do and does not require a ton of expensive mats. I would be glad to show you…
Assuming you have a fully specced character for forging and a full coils forge
1- Put 3 venerable gums
2- Put 3 Longevity gums
3- Put 1 Fate Paste 2
4- Put Pure boon 1, 2, or 3 as you see suitable (until you run out of Fate paste).
5- Put Fate paste 2 again.
6- Throw in some more pure boons.
7- You got the chisels.
I did 3 chisels (titanium and amethyst) and all came max dura + lattice from the first time.
Forging is very easy for low-mid stuff which is all ive needed so far. High mid to extreme high end is whats hard and thats not needed. More done for bragging rights id say. Good luck!
Don’t recall if it was previously mentioned, so just a brief note here. Made some stone chisels with lattice and they only change blocks up to gold. Need the gem chisel with lattice to change titanium & gem blocks. I knew I should have tested that on test too =)
Same as folks who refuse to use coin in any way… just ridiculous. Have it your ways I guess
Meanwhile, these chisels look easy to forge so I’ll be using a bunch.
Why did it have to be locked behind a forge boon is the complaint many have I think. This was an opportunity for them to add a new tool recipe to the game with maybe different mats than are currently used, but they put it behind the forge/boon system which is complex for many to want to bother dealing with in the first place.
It is a particularly easy forge, though it’s not constant. I’ve hammered a few out so far and had to reset 6 times because bad rng. Far easy to forge a lattice chisel then a slingbow or aoe tool by far, but again it’s still rng dependent.
… oops, did I say that out loud
