Crafting

Xindeler's crafting system allows you to create weapons, armor, consumables, tools and more from materials gathered in the world.

How It Works

To craft an item you need:

1. The required materials in your inventory
2. A crafting station of the corresponding type
3. Having unlocked the recipe (some are automatic, others require recipe books)

Crafting Stations

There are 10 crafting stations, each covering a different category of recipe:

Station	Used for	Recipes
Crafting Bench	General item assembly	132
Anvil	Metal weapons and armor	72
Loom	Weaving cloth from thread	56
Cauldron	Potions and alchemical items	20
Forge	Smelting ore into ingots	10
Cooking Pot	Food and consumables	8
Spinning Wheel	Turning raw fiber into thread	7
Tanning Rack	Curing raw hide into leather	4
Dismantling Bench	Salvaging items back into materials	— (not recipe-based)
Repair Bench	Equipment repair	— (not recipe-based)

Categories of Craftable Items

Weapons

Weapons in Xindeler are modular: the materials used determine the final stats of the weapon. Available types include sword, axe, hammer, bow, staff, sceptre, tome, focus and holy symbol. Dagger, shield, spear and blowgun are planned but not craftable yet.

Weapon materials come in two families — metals and woods (see the material table below) — with different properties depending on the source.

Armor

There is a wide variety of armor sets — Adventurer, Assassin, Boreal, Cultist, Golemite, Leather Plate, among many more — see Armor for the full list. Each set has different class and level requirements. Mail armor works differently from the named sets: instead of a single fixed identity, it scales through the same 6-tier metal ladder as weapons (Bronze through Orichalcum), so its stats depend entirely on which metal you craft it from.

Consumables and Food

Food grants temporary combat buffs. More complex foods require more ingredients but give better effects.

Tools and Crafting

Specialized tools for mining, fishing and other gathering activities are also craftable and improve the efficiency of those activities.

Gliders and Lanterns

Utility items: gliders allow gliding from heights, lanterns illuminate dark areas like caves and dungeons.

Item Quality

Items have a quality system represented by colors. The quality of the final item depends on the materials used: better materials = higher quality.

Quality	Color
Low	Grey
Common	Light blue
Moderate	Green
High	Blue
Epic	Purple
Legendary	Gold
Artifact	Orange

Real material names, by category and tier (confirmed against the game's item data — not every category has a material at every tier):

Tier	Metal	Wood	Textile	Hide
Low	Bronze, Tin	Wood	Linen	Animal Hide, Simple Leather
Common	Iron	Bamboo	Wool, Cloth Strips	Tough Hide, Thick Leather, Leather Strips
Moderate	Steel	Hardwood	Silk	—
High	Cobalt	Ironwood	Lifecloth	Leather Troll
Epic	Silver, Gold, Bloodsteel	Frostwood	Moonweave	Rugged Hide, Rigid Leather
Legendary	Orichalcum	Eldwood	Sunsilk	—

No material reaches the Artifact tier — that quality is reserved for crafted or unique items, not raw materials.

Raw materials are gathered directly from the world, before they're refined into the tiers above:

Repair

Items have no repair cost in resources. You can repair your equipment without economic penalty.

Inventory

The inventory has 36 slots, expanded from the original fork version. Some items stack (materials, consumables), others occupy individual slots (weapons, armor).
