Description

Weaponsmithing is the art of forging weapons from metal and infusing them with power cores and elements. To advance tier levels, players will need to fill the experiance bar for each tier. As the player advances, the XP requirements become higher and simply filling out the Tech Tree will not be enough to advance to the next level. Below are the items required for each tier in the Tech Tree. The content has been updated for Drop 6/Free to Play. For more information on creating items, see Tradeskill and Circuit Board Crafting .
