Crafting skills

Your character can learn all six different crafting skills and bring your skill level to 399, but master only one.

Alchemy

With alchemy, you can create various alchemical items, such as potions, scrolls, mana stones, orbs and spellbooks. This

skill can prove to be very helpful in the end because you can create your own potions, scrolls and mana stones, instead

of having to buy them. This skill would be most beneficial for any Mage class.

Gather what you can!

Alchemists can craft items that will be sought after by every class in Aion. Whether you want to craft your own potions to

avoid paying the high vendor prices or provide them for your guild prior to that big raid, alchemy has something for

everyone. You won't see a crafting shop until your character reaches level 10 and ascends to either Pandaemonium or

Sanctum but you shouldn't wait until 10 to start gathering the materials you will need for your craft. The beginning recipes

in alchemy require angelica, which grows in abundance in Ishalgen and Poeta.

Gather everything you can prior to ascending, as this does a couple of things for you - It builds up your supply of raw

materials and increases your gathering skill. You will need both of these later. As a human you will be digging in the dirt

to gather these materials, but once you ascend you will be granted the Daevic skill of extracting the essence from raw

materials. I imagine the creators felt It would be un-divine for a Daeva to have dirt under her nails.

Meet your master

After arriving in Pandaemonia or Sanctum and you are ready to embark upon your new career in alchemy, Asmodaeans

should seek out Honir in the Temple of Artisans and Elyseans should find Diana in the Artisans' Hall. Speak to the

crafting trainer and you will be given the option of completing a simple quest. I recommend taking the quest as it is very

easy to complete and awards you 3,000 kinah and a recipe. It will also introduce you to Lesser Elemental Stones - the

other raw material required for most beginning level alchemy recipes. You acquire the stones by creatures surrounding

Altgard Fortress or Verteron Citadel. You will need a minimum of three stones to make the requisite 15 bottles of Lesser

Elemental Water but gather a couple of extra just in case you fail during your crafting. Failure is an option in Aion crafting

and it will use up your materials.

Once you have the stones, you will have to speak to Honir again to learn the alchemy skill prior to being able to use a

crafting station. Crafting stations are located in the major cities of Atriea and are required for creating any potions. After

acquiring the crafting skill proceed to a crafting station and make the Lesser Elemental Water. Turn in the water for the

kinah and recipe and talk with the skill trainer again. You will have two options - Learn Alchemy or Craft Request. Learn

Alchemy allows you to purchase the next tier of alchemy once your skill reaches 99. The Craft Request option is

explained later.

Using the Crafting Station

Using the crafting station is fairly straight forward. When you approach to within range of one you will be prompted to use

it, which will open the crafting window. Here you will be provided with a list of items you can craft in the left pane and the

required ingredients in the left pane. Select the number of items you want to craft and click on the "Craft" button or click

the "Craft All" button to craft as many items as you have inventory for. If you need bottles and other non-gatherable

items, they can be purchased from the nearby supply vendor.

Craft Requests

Craft Requests allow you to create items without actually having to gather raw materials but requires you to spend kinah

to purchase the items not provided by the government for the particular craft request. The first craft request requires no

purchase and if you do not mind "grinding it out" you can progress your alchemy skill to 40 without spending one kinah

before the request is no longer available to you. Subsequent quests will require a commitment of increasing amounts of

kinah to level your alchemy skill. If you have plenty of kinah and don't mind using it to raise your skill you can take the

higher level crafting requests as they become available to improve your skill much more quickly.
