Scrapping Cloth Items

Acquiring raw materials can be a costly business, which is why scrapping is extremely important to crafters. If you Spend 1 DT, you can scrap up to your Intelligence modifier of cloth items you have collected over the course of your adventure. To scrap an item, you simply place the item you wish to scrap in the workshop and make a Weaver’s Tools roll. 10x the number of items you are scrapping is the total number needed during your DT activity to gain Tier 1 Raw Material (Scrap Cloth). When the activity is completed, you will gain 1 Tier 1 Raw Material per item you have placed in the workshop.

Converting Cloth Material

When converting material together, the process is relatively simple: you take two scrap materials together to create a new material. This only works up to Tier 2 Raw Material(Common Thread Cloth).

If you spend 1 DT point, you can perform a DT activity to feed your scrap cloth to the local workshop. For every 2 Tier 1 Scrap Cloth you feed (Max Intelligence modifier), you gain 1 Tier 2 Common Thread Cloth.

Scrapping Weapons and Armor

Acquiring raw materials can be a costly business that is why scrapping is extremely important to crafters. If you Spend 1 DT you can scrap up to your Intelligence modifier of weapons or armor you have collected over the course of your adventure. To scrap an item you simply place the item you wish to scrap in the forge and make a Weapon/Armorsmithing roll. 10x the number of items you are scraping is the total number needed during your DT activity to gain Tier 1 Raw Tiered Material (Scrap Metal, Wood, Leather). When the activity is completed you will gain 1 Tier 1 Raw Tiered Material per item you have placed in the forge.

Converting Material

When converting material together the process is relative simple you take two scrap materials together to create a new material. This only works up to Tier 2 Raw Tiered Material.

If you spend 1 DT point you can perform a DT activity to feed your scrap to the local forge. For every 2 Tier 1 Raw Tiered Material you feed (Max Intelligence modifier) you gain 1 Tier 2 Raw Tiered Material of the same kind.

Blacksmithing

Requires: Weaponsmith or Armorsmith’s Tools Proficiency

Forging weapons and armor of immense power is crucial for gaining an edge on the seas. Weaponsmithing, or blacksmithing, is a valuable skill for any crew to have or recruit. Not only does weaponsmithing allow you to create basic weapons of varying tiers, but allows you to upgrade existing weapons and armor as well.

Tailoring

Requires: Weaver’s Tools Proficiency

Creating and upgrading cloth items such as clothing, light armor, and faction flags (e.g., Jolly Roger) is a valuable skill for any crew to have or recruit. Tailoring allows you to create basic cloth items of varying tiers and upgrade existing ones as well.

Creating Base Weapons and Armor

Creating weapons and armor at base requires 2 DT, expending a Raw Tiered Material, and a Weaponsmith’s or Armorsmith’s tools check to reach a threshold. 2 DT affords you one tool check towards surpassing the threshold. Certain feats or features may grant you a reduced threshold to beat. The Crafting Threshold you must pass on depends on the Tier of the Raw Tiered Material used in crafting, detailed below. Raw Tiered Material may be found as a reward for an Adventure or through plunder, and a DM may give you a different name for the material to fit the roleplaying of the Adventure you got it from.

Understanding Raw Materials

Raw Materials oftentimes have various traits or upgrades attached to them. These traits are the upgrades that a player can attach to a weapon while crafting it. To understand Materials, detailed below is an explanation of their description.

Material Name

Raw Material, Trait (Cloth, Wood, Metal, Stone)

Upgrades: Upgrade Name

Compatibility: Armor Type, Weapon Type, Special

Tier: (Tier of Material)

Traits: Traits are essentially what the Material is physically. When crafting a weapon or armor out of material of a certain trait, the completed craft becomes that type of material. For instance, making a weapon out of a property with the “Wood” trait, creates a weapon that would be considered wooden. If a material has a "Composite" trait as well, it means that it must be used with a Tiered Material when crafting a weapon or armor itself.

Upgrades: Upgrades listed in a material allow you to either add the upgrade to a creation when crafting with it, bypassing the upgrade point cost of adding such a property to a weapon or armor, but forces you to apply all eligible properties to it. For instance, Sea Prism Stone adds the “Suppressant” upgrade to a weapon at no point cost, but crafting with it forces the “Heavy” property to be added to it, as opposed to upgrading a weapon with it, which allows the weapon to gain the “Suppressant” upgrade at the required point cost.

Compatibility: Compatibility denotes what the weapon can be used on, like “Medium / Heavy Armor, or Weapons” for most Metals, or various specific weapons and armor for “Wood”, etc. Material with the “Special” compatibility trait can be used outside of the Blacksmithing Downtime activity, such as in Ship Building.

Tier: The tier of the material, meaning what tier of weapon it can make or be added too for an upgrade. Some Materials denote a tier of “--”, which means that it can be used to upgrade any tier weapon. All Tier "--" materials have the "Composite" trait attached.

Smithing with Upgrade Materials

Upgrade materials that you may find in the world, such as Mournsteel or Wapometal, have upgrades attached to them. When forging a base weapon of a desired tier, you may expend a Upgrade Material alongside the required Raw Material to create a weapon that includes the Upgrade listed in the raw material. The upgrade granted in this way does not count against the number of upgrade slots your weapon has upon completing the weapon and matches the tier of the weapon when finished.

Upgrades

Using either a weapon you crafted yourself, or a weapon you found or purchased, you can upgrade your weapons or armor using 2DT, requiring the base weapon and materials for the desired upgrade. Each upgrade uses a number of upgrade slots equal to its tier, you can only add upgrades to weapons or armor of the same tier or lower. Depending on the tier of the upgrade you want to add, you must succeed a number of Weaponsmith's Tools (for weapons) and Armorsmith’s Tool (for armor) checks determined by the upgrade tier detailed below. You must surpass the DC as many times as required, spending DT for each roll.

Upgrade DC:

Tier 1: DC: 15 Two Times

Tier 2: DC: 20 Three Times

Tier 3: DC: 25 Four Times

Tier 4: DC: 30 Five Times

A weapon has a number of upgrade slots equal to twice its tier, and a weapon’s base properties do not count against its upgrade slots. You may be granted additional upgrade points, as well as a reduced DC, through feats or features.

Devil Fruit Weapon Crafting

Prerequisite- Level 8, Arrived on Alabasta, Cursed Smith Feat

You’ve heard rumors of weapons being forged with a devil fruit, A sword that can turn into an elephant or even a bazooka that turns into a dog. Because of your knowledge of this happening, you can choose to attempt this process yourself if you meet the requirements. (When beginning the crafting of this weapon, Notify a Content or Gorosei member.)

When you choose to make a weapon that’s infused with a devil fruit, You must first be in possession of any identified normal or ancient zoan fruit. Using any other type of fruit when attempting to do so causes the crafting to fail, Losing the fruit in the process.

While in the process of creating a zoan infused weapon, The Dc threshold is tripled depending on the weapon type and The Dc for upgrading these weapons are raised by 5.

The DT cost of crafting and upgrading this weapon increases by 1. Going from 2DT to 3DT.

You may not use any Elemental metals or materials in the process of crafting this weapon other than the base tier raw material, Doing so compromises the weapon causing the process to fail.

When crafted, This weapon acts as if it would have eaten the fruit. It gains the first level devil fruit features and can partially turn into the animal related to the zoan.
