Armstech

Players who choose Armstech as their crafting skill will be able to create a wide range of blaster pistols, blaster rifles, sniper rifles, and assault cannons. To create these powerful weapons, you’ll need to get your hands on the right materials. Scavenging, a gathering skill, supplies the metals, alloys, and other materials you’ll need for Armstech.

Entry-level Armstech schematics require only a gathered resource, allowing crafters to enjoy the game system immediately. As schematic complexity and item quality increases, the crafter will need other ingredients, like vendor-purchased materials and even rare resources. The higher the item quality, the more work you’ll need to put into crafting.

There are three quality levels for crafted blasters:

Quality	Crafting Requirements
Premium	Gathered resources and common items sold on vendors
Prototype	Rare gathered resources and other valuable items
Artifact	Rare resources (gathered or otherwise) and other valuable items – possibly acquired from other players

Premium quality blasters are relatively easy for an Armstech to make. They generally require only scavenged materials and vendor-purchased fluxes. At lower levels, Premium quality blasters require relatively inexpensive materials and take only minutes to construct. They’re on par with (and sometimes slightly better than) items commonly acquired from completing quests and defeating enemies.

Prototype and Artifact quality blasters will be exceptional, and their appearance and effectiveness will speak to their rarity and power.
