Line 11:
Once crafted at a workbench, each weapon is [[Obelisk|untuned]] and its item level is set to the level of the player character's Blacksmith profession by default, although the player may choose to change this level to be lower in anticipation of player-to-player trading. As the costs remain the same, and the item's value at the [[Quartermaster Shop]] increases based on its item level, it is generally advised to create the highest-level weaponry possible.
I am hoping a better editor than me can come through here and add a strategy page. This editor just ran numbers on sheets and determined that if one were to mine exactly 1,000 Cabranese Ore for the level 52-64 Blacksmithing, smelt all the ores, apply every KP to Blacksmithing, and then craft as many as the highest tier weapon as possible until the next tier unlocks, one would have 1,242,749 (level 63) of the 1,257,782 experience required to hit level 64 (and thus not need Cabranese Ore until the next tier). If one were to only album complete the 62 weapon, and then complete the last ~70 crafts available (due to remaining ingots), one could become very close, or possibly even breach, the level 64 barrier. Unfortunately, the math/sheets completed to reach this conclusion cannot simply add more ore at the beginning without needing to redo multiple equations. Oops. This person has made these numbers available for to [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vRZxxL-T84FWyj82Ftk-Pb_QBloWp_FW1r3ukRkMWPabmnNnZDllXh1AF8126Sl0uDDgUf-g3Qnv9Iv/pubhtml view] or download on a [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/15Cg4IVfh5_DXvFX7DUKC86SyhPSb7IhRYWFReujhQ84/edit?usp=sharing Google sheets]. The math done to lead to this conclusion assumes starting the smelting process at the beginning of level 52 with 1,000 ore available, no breaks for other crafts are completed, all KPs earned are put back into Blacksmithing during the process, 33 item crafts = 1 KP (despite this number actually being 99%), and 200 smelted ores = 1 KP despite being typically done in multiples of 6, which would be 204 ore. Best of luck dealing with cab!
