Smith player profession

[Level]

Professions aren’t suppose to effect PvP

[ATinyLight]

But it doesn’t

@ATinyLight

you can create the most powerful weapon skills of them all, your knowledge of weapons are greater that anyone else’s.

You can buy potions, you can’t buy the most powerful weapon skills in the game

You can also brew potions without mastering alchemy, also considering potions are likely banned in fair PvP.

I thought they meant you can make weapons with better skills.

I don’t think this just says “better”

[Alv]

This is so innocent

[Waping]

Sounds way too good compared to alchemists and cooks
Creating weapons is already extremely useful by itself, why do they need to be the best weapons of the game

Now if creating weapons was just a basic thing and smith was an upgrade to it, yeah sure it wouldn’t be as op

[Dragon]

I think you made a key mistake when writing this, frankly:
you focus way too much on skills rather than the weapons themselves
a smith would be someone who actually makes weapons,
this making skills-for-weapons thing is completely different

the overall suggestion is way too vague, it doesn’t describe how materials/how leveling with the profession would work or whatever or any specific details,
just a few milestones so to speak

given that vetex hasn’t put smith on the professions tab I’ll assume he isn’t planning on adding player smithing

[ATinyLight]

I get all of this except the “vetex probably isnt planning on adding a player smith”, of course hes not?!? Suggestions arent supposed to suggest things that are already planned?!?

[Dragon]

to elaborate; given the ceaseless amount of smith suggestions and that he’s almost certainly thought through it before
if it hasn’t been added yet it probably won’t be

[ATinyLight]

Countless smith suggestions? I haven’t seen any

I’m not sure what if it should be called blacksmith since you wouldn’t make any weapons or Armor. Instead you would be able to make things like whetstones and Armor padding that would give temporary boosts to your equipment. I think that the effects of these items would be limited to the number of hits you deal for the whetstone and the number of hits you take for the Armor padding rather than it being a timer. however once they have worn off there would be cooldown until you can use another. …

[desired_bag]

Although a blacksmith profession would be pretty cool, your way of implementing it wasn’t that good.

Lost me at the weapon skills, a fighter knows how to use the weapon, a smith forges the weapon.

@ATinyLight

your knowledge of weapons are greater that anyone else’s.

As I just mentioned with the fighter and smith comparison, you shouldn’t have weapon knowledge but forging knowledge instead.

[Waping]

Oh boy, there has been a ton of suggestions about crafting weapons and stuff before
Now of course they aren’t all specifically about a smith profession (a couple of them were), but it’s definitely not a new concept
