Crafting
Crafting is the act of using crafting materials to create items. It plays a major role in the FOnline 3 economy.
It is also one of the skills. Many players create crafter alts: characters optimized specifically for crafting.
Investing your hard-earned skill points into Crafting progressively unlocks new crafting recipes.
Also, the higher your Crafting skill, the higher the initial amount of equipment experience points (Gear XP) your crafted items receive on average.
Crafted Gear XP formula
Initial Gear XP calculation is a three-step process.
Step 1: Calculating the base amount of experience points (Base XP).
This is done via a random chance roll with a large spread, whose value is then multiplied by how many items you are creating.
Base XP = Random(1, 2500) * the number of items being crafted
For example, if you bulk-craft 100 items, the Base XP will be a random value between 100 and 250000.
Step 2: Calculating the Gear XP Multiplier.
The base value is your Crafting skill.
That value is then increased:
- by 50 if you're using the Crafting Tool MK1;
- by 100 for you're using Crafting Tool MK2;
- by 10 for each point of Luck that you have;
- by 3 for each point of Intelligence that you have;
- by an additional 5 for each point of Intelligence that you have if you have the Alien Class Perk.
Step 3: The final calculation.
The amount of experience points on your crafted gear (Crafted Gear XP) is determined by the following calculation:
Crafted Gear XP = Base XP * (Gear XP Multiplier / 100)
Example
Let's assume that your Crafting skill is 100%, your INT is 5, your LK is 5, you're crafting 100 items, you're not using any tools, and you're not an Alien.
In step 1, your Base XP will be calculated as Random(1, 2500)*100, meaning it will be a value between 100 and 250000.
In step 2, your Gear XP Multiplier will be calculated as 100 + (5*10) + (5*3) = 165.
In step 3, your Crafted Gear XP will be calculated as Random(100, 250000) * (165/100) which means it can be any integer between 165 and 412500.
