Metalworking

Metalworking is a skill which allows a player to barricade windows and doors, craft metal structures and containers, and disassemble many metallic objects in the world. Also repair car parts.

Basic Requirements

Equipment

Materials

Materials used in metalworking can be found in containers throughout the world, or obtained by disassembling objects. These materials include:

Unless a character has started with the Metalworker occupation, they will also need to read the relevant metalworking magazines before items can be constructed.

Getting Started

Before Training

Due to the scarcity of material, if a higher level is desired it's important to maximize XP gain by reading the Metalworking skill books.

Early Levels

Metal barricades can be constructed at Level 0, without reading any recipe magazines or using welding rods. These barricades have much more HP than planks, making them an excellent choice for fortifying windows and doors.

  1. Regular materials + scrap metal will be awarded
  2. Only scrap metal will be awarded (partial failure)
  3. No items will be awarded (total failure)

Trivia

  • Metal constructions can be destroyed with fire.
  • Blacksmithing is planned to be implemented into the game, evidenced by the Smithing MagazinesRemoved!, which would be used for item and weapon construction, most likely using the metalworking skill.
