Become a Master Smith in a Day

Nox News - Nox Forums - Tips, Tricks and Guides

I learned Speed Smithing from Fedaykin's Guide to Speed Smithing.
But think I can include some stuff to make it better...
So I've rewritten it with quite a bit of additional information.

"The sweet thing about this guide is that you don't need metal bits At All!
(however you will need a file or do bits until you can make your own)
This has been designed with speed in mind, but it is expensive."

This is the Quick and Dirty way to go from 0 to Master Smith in a day (3 to 4...2 hour sessions)
for about 300-400pp (depending on wisdom/intelegence*)
*most believe the higher the wisdom / intellegence the greater the success / skill increase rate.

Freeport is the best place (I know of) to do this since the materials you need and the forge are nearby.
North Freeport at Groflah's Forge until you start banded then East Freeport at Ikthars Armor.

Step 1) 
Train 20pts in Smithing (bits almost trivial)
Get to North Freeport and aquire a file or make a file 
Jillian Dayson in Velitha & Bardo's Imported Goods in EFP sells a file mold.
(File = 1 metal bit + 1 file mold + water... combine until successful)

Step 2) Make Steel Bonings and sell successes back to merchant (minimize loss of $$)
(Steel Boning = Small brick of Ore + water + file... file is always returned)
CAUTION: bricks of ore can be VERY HEAVY... if you can gate...get a bind to the forge!

Step 3) When Steel Bonings become trivial (40 something) start making Metal Sheets.
Sheets are now STACKABLE woohooo! Save all your successes!!)
(Metal Sheet = 2 small bricks of ore + water)

Step 4) When Metal Sheets become trivial (50 something)... go to East Freeport.
Start making banded gorgets (and sell them back to the merchants unless someone nearby wants one).
(Gorget = 1 gorget mold + 1 sheet + water)
Before Gorgets become trivial you will become a MASTER SMITH (101+)!!

If you want to take the time to sell some banded you can make a little of your money back now...

Tip to get to 175 fast but at a MUCH greater cost!

When gorgets go trivial (105) make Boots
(Boots = 1 boot mold + 1 sheet + water)

When Boots go trivial (135) make mantles or guantlets
(approriate mold + 2 sheets + water)

When these go trivial (168) make cloaks (trivial about 175)...  then its time for fine plate.

And sometime along the way go to EQ Traders to get all the recipies and learn them.

Good Luck and Safe Travels!
