# Crafting
**Crafting System**
Crafting has become an exciting new way for adventurers to enhance their skills beyond combat. The crafting system involves two main activities: breaking down equipment and creating new items.
{% hint style="info" %}
*To begin crafting, you'll need an **Iron Hammer**, which can be obtained by completing the Iron Hammer quest in **Minotaur Mountain (Kazoordon)**.*
\
\&#xNAN;***Important:** You can only acquire one Iron Hammer per character. If you lose it, you’ll have to either purchase a new one from other players or complete the quest again on a different character.*
{% endhint %}
***
#### **Breaking Down Items**
Certain materials are required to craft new items, and these can only be obtained by dismantling existing equipment. You can break different basic weapons to gather **Piece of** **Steels**.
There are two ways to begin dismantling items. For the first method, you can use any available **Anvil** on the map (most are located at the town's blacksmith). For the second method, you will need to purchase an **Anvil** from the NPC **'A Sweaty Cyclops'** (**located in Ab'dendriel**) for **5000 gold** and place it in your house. Once you have the **Anvil**, simply place the equipment on it and use the **Iron Hammer** to dismantle it.
**Crafting Skill & Breaking Rate:**\
The base chance to break an item is **10% + (0.597% \* (crafting skill - 10))**, and higher-level equipment requires more advanced crafting skills to break. If your skill is not high enough, you'll only see a spark effect.
**Note:** Items bought from NPCs have special protection, so they cannot be broken.
***
#### **Crafting New Items**
As with breaking down equipment, crafting has a success rate based on your skill level. The higher your crafting skill, the higher the chance of successful crafting.
To craft an item, simple **right-click** on the **Anvil** and it will open **Crafting Station**.
**Crafting Success Rate:**\
The base crafting success rate is **10% + (item multiplier \* (crafting skill - 10))**, meaning the better your skill, the more likely you are to craft an item successfully.
