Training

Antique of the Artisan has a unique leveling method which grants you experience through crafting. You will only gain experience from crafting the same item 25 times, after which you must change to crafting a different item or wait one hour before gaining experience again on the previously crafted item. Generally speaking, you should do all your regular crafting in the Britain Crafting Area, but this is especially important for leveling your Antique of the Artisan Talisman and its relics.

Mythical Crafting

Antique of the Artisan unlocks Mythical Crafting which allows you to create new rare items. Mythical Crafting requires Mythical Crafting Recipes which can be obtained as loot on Champion Bosses. Once you have a Mythical Crafting Recipe, you can double click it with the character you wish to be able to craft this recipe, which will consume the scroll. Depending on which recipe you use, the Mythical Crafting Recipes will show up in their corresponding crafting menu area. For example a "royal cloak" will show in the "Tailoring Menu" under the "Shirts" Category. At the first level, you can attempt one Mythical Craft every 72 hours, however this cooldown will decrease as your talisman levels.

Relics

There are currently 7 relics available for the Antique of the Artisan, most of which are passive and with some that are activatable.

Notes:

• At this time it is still not discovered where the relics will come from, so there will be more information to come!

Frugality

The Frugality relic provided a permanent decrease to the resources required for crafting. This bonus increases as Frugality levels and you gain relic experience based on the amount of material saved while crafting. So you’ll definitely want to level Frugality in the Britain Crafting Area. Frugality can stack with other areas or items which provide a resource reduction benefit. For example, if your Frugality relic provides 5% material reduction and you were crafting in Britain Crafting Area, your total may reduction would be 25%!

Recycler

The Recycler relic provides a (0.5 * Relic Level) chance your craft consumes 20% less materials when crafting. Its similar to Frugality, but it provides a much greater bonus and these material reduction bonuses stack so it’s possible to get some amazing material savings. For example, if you have a maxed out Frugality relic and you’re crafting in Britain Crafting Area and your Recycler relic activates, that would combine to make a 45% material savings!

Imbueologist

The Imbuelogist relic increases the chance of making slayer items in Britain Crafting Area. Your chances to craft a slayer increases as the Imbueologist relic levels and you gain experience by successfully crafting slayer items. The chance to proc this relic is (Relic Level * 2).

Perfectionist

The Perfectionist relic increases the chance of making exceptional items. Your chances to successfully craft an exceptional item increases by (Relic Level * 2) and gains experience through the process of by completing Bulk Order Deeds.

Empowerer

The Empowerer is both a passive and activatable relic that first stores a charge shown on your active ability bar for each exceptional quality weapon you craft and then allows to apply your Empowered Charges to any non blessed wearable armor or clothing. You can currently stack 1000 Empowerment charges. Empowered items amplifies all damage dealt by the wearer for 1 second for every charge applied so they’re a valuable tool for. This bonus includes all forms of damage from melee/ranged to Magery and even pets! Damage amplification increases as the Empowerer relic levels, you can currently wear up to 5 Empowered Items at one time. You know that the Empowered effect is applied to the damage by the orange animation that appears on the target you are attacking.

Overstock

The Overstock relic provides a chance to get some free resources from most vendors you are purchasing from. When you complete a transaction, an offer will appear to accept the vendor’s overstocked items. Vendors have their applicable overstock item such as scribes offer blank scrolls, bowyer offers bolts or shafts, weaver offer cloth and so on. The chance for Overstock to proc is based on the relic’s level and you gain relic experience by accepting offers. The amount of overstock items is based on the total gold amount purchased from the vendor, so the more you buy, the more overstock items will be offered.

The Art of the Deal

The Art of the Deal provides a massive discount off your total purchase only after a purchase has been completed. The chance that this procs is (Relic Level / 4) and it is currently set to give you a 95% discount on the total of the sale. As you can imagine, this can be a significant way to make some profit but before you get too excited, know the chances of procing are quite low. Art of the Deal gains relic experience based on activation.
