Carpentry

Carpentry is the woodworking trade. With just a saw — no station needed — you turn boards into furniture, containers, musical instruments, wooden weapons and shields, Woodland armor, and a long list of house add-on deeds. The shared crafting rules are in the Crafting Overview.

The saw ↑ top

A saw holds 100 uses, or 150 if it was crafted exceptionally — quality buys charges and nothing else. The metal it was tinkered from (see Tinkering) is what upgrades your work: each tier adds exceptional chance and pushes every magic attribute roll of the instruments, weapons, shields and armor you build:

	Saw	Exceptional chance	Magic rolls
	Iron	—	—
	Shadow Iron	+5%	up to +2 points
	Copper	+10%	up to +4 points
	Bronze	+15%	up to +7 points
	Verite	+20%	up to +9 points
	Valorite	+25%	up to +12 points

The magic-roll push is rolled fresh on every craft — the figure is the tier's ceiling, shown on the recipe page's Details toggle as Tool material. The prize commission is an exceptional Valorite saw: 150 charges and the best bonuses in one tool.

Wood ↑ top

Logs come from Lumberjacking; chop a log stack with an axe to make boards (colored woods need Carpentry or Lumberjacking skill to work). Colored wood hues everything you build and gives wooden weapons and shields a magic level, same ladder as metals: Shadow (60 skill to select) through Verite (110) and Valorite (120). See Resources.

What you can build ↑ top

Highlights:

• Woodland armor — the carpenter's recipe-gated armor set (80–120 skill), built from boards plus Hardened Resin. Wooden armor benefits from exceptional quality like any other armor.
• House add-on deeds are how player houses get working forges, anvils, looms, ovens, mills, beds, and training stations. Many deeds need a secondary skill (a forge deed needs Blacksmithy, a loom needs Tailoring, a pentagram needs Magery) and some iron ingots or cloth.
• Special dye tubs (110+ skill) are the rechargeable tubs of the pigment system — see Pigments and Dyes.
• Instruments require Musicianship 45+ as a second skill and are fully playable — see Barding and Songs.

Repair Deeds are also craftable — one per material tier (regular, shadow, copper, bronze, verite, valorite). Each costs 20 of that tier's material and needs the skill that tier normally requires.

The Staff Damage Bonus ↑ top

Carpentry adds damage to the wooden mace-class weapons it makes, the same way Lumberjacking does for axes:

• Clubs and staves (quarter staff, black staff, gnarled staff, shepherd's crook) deal bonus damage scaling with your Carpentry, about +20% at Grandmaster (100) and +24% at 120 against monsters, halved to +10% and +12% in PvP.
• It applies to the plain wooden versions of those weapons, which is what carries the bonus.
• Scrolled points above 100 count here even while you are PvP flagged, unlike the combat skills.

Shields and the magic rolls are a separate matter; see Crafting Magic Items.

Masonry: the stone trade ↑ top

A Grandmaster carpenter can learn a second trade, Masonry, and start working granite instead of boards: stone vases, heavy stone tables and statues, cut with a mallet and chisel. It costs no skill points and no second skill slot, but the book that teaches it is a quest reward rather than a purchase, and it will not teach anyone below 100 Carpentry.

Your Carpentry is the skill it rolls against, so scrolling Carpentry past Grandmaster pays twice.

Repair ↑ top

Carpentry repairs wooden items: a saw fixes wooden weapons, shields, and Woodland armor. See Repairing.

Raising the skill ↑ top

Carpentry reaches 120 with Crafting skill scrolls. Past 100 you unlock the Torch and dye-tub recipes, the Pentagram, top furniture, and — at 110/120 — the Verite and Valorite woods for top-tier staves and shields.

Thanks to the 50% floor you can start each bracket as soon as it opens:

Wood is cheap and self-gathered, making Carpentry one of the least expensive crafts to raise.

Skill Mastery ↑ top

The Carpentry Mastery (learned from a Carpenter at 90 skill) adds up to +20% exceptional chance to everything the saw makes, pushes the magic attribute rolls of the staves, shields and instruments you build from colored wood, and — as the template bonus — gives exceptional colored pieces a chance to come out as Slayer weapons or shields. Its ultimate, Woodwright's Fortune, can refund a craft's boards, gild a shield into a golden part or enchant a staff with charges. Every successful craft earns mastery XP, scaled by the amount and grade of wood it consumed — furniture included.
