Arcforge
Arcforge is the high-end magical profession. Recipes are few and meso costs are the highest of any profession. It is the only profession where a meaningful share of recipes turn a profit at NPC sell-back.

Version

Arcforge sits at the top of the crafting pyramid. It has few recipes, but each one carries the highest EXP-per-craft values in the game and several outputs (Black Crystal, Diamond, Garnet, Aquamarine) are genuine profit-positive crafts even against NPC sell-back prices. Meso costs are correspondingly steep, so Arcforge is the profession a maxed-out crafter graduates to rather than the one they start with.

Mechanics

The master NPC who teaches Arcforge has not been confirmed publicly yet; this article will be updated when the launch information is verified.

Crafting levels run from 1 to 10. Each successful craft awards the EXP (in-game labelled Mastery) listed in the recipe tables below, and the character-level cap of char_lv = 5 × craft_lv applies. For example, a Lv. 6 crafter must be character level 30 or higher to gain EXP from Lv. 6 recipes. At the cap, the bar parks at 100% until the character levels up, and any EXP earned while parked is discarded. See Crafting for the full EXP table and shared mechanics.

Recipes

All 47 Arcforge recipes, grouped by output category and crafting level. Sortable; click any column header to re-order. The Catalyst column lists the optional additive a recipe accepts. Using one while you craft gives a chance to change the finished item's bonus stats. Equipment and scroll recipes accept a catalyst; material recipes do not.
