Welcome to the second feature spotlight where-in each month we'll delve into one of the many features of Tundralia. Today's spotlight is all about crafting, a side feature in the game that allows you to create an array of items by gathering resources, and by learning plans and recipes.
To access crafting you'll need to visit one of the two workbenches located at either Snowborn Landing or Fort Coldwraith, interact with it with as you would any NPC and the crafting interface will appear onscreen.
Crafting
The crafting interface is simple and easy to use. All of the recipes and plans you've learnt will display on the left-hand side, clicking on one will show you the reagents required to craft that item. If you have the required items within your inventory, the items will display in white, if you don't they will appear red.
Once you have all of the required reagents to craft the item, just click the 'Craft Item' button and the crafted item will appear in your inventory and the items required to craft the item, will be removed. It's that simple!
Resources
But how do you get the resources needed to craft items? In the world of Tundralia, crafting reagents can be found everywhere.
Dry Wood, which is used for crafting equipment, and Snow Cap and Icewort, two herbs used for crafting potions, can be found out in the world for you to pick-up. Thin Leather, Broken Armour and Shattered Bones drop off the various enemy creatures that call Tundralia home, and Twine Thread and Snow Wasp Bile can both be brought from merchants.
Recipes
Plans and recipes can also be brought from merchants, as well as received as a reward from certain quests. Upon starting the game you will only now how to make Bone Dust and Metal Scraps, two reagents that require Shattered Bones and Broken Armour to make. But by learning more recipes you'll be able to create potions, armour and weapons.
To learn a recipe, just right click it and press the 'Learn' button and it will be added to your recipe list in the crafting interface.
And that's it for crafting, as the game continues to develop we plan for more recipes and reagents to be added for you to craft. Finally, thanks for reading and stay tuned for the next feature spotlight.
