Maker skill is a newly released skill that allows players with a job other than Beginner to create equipment for their job class.
How do I get the Maker skill?
Once you reach Lv45, head over to Magatia to meet Meren, who is in the portal to the right of Phyllia (left half of the town). Accept the quest "Meren's new discovery" and finish the three sub-quests. Each of the three quests require you to pay 10,000 meso. Return to Meren to take a little quiz to test what you remember of the quest dialogue for each of the quests. After completing the quiz, you earn the Maker skill.
How do I use the Maker skill?
The Maker skill, as with Monster Rider and Legendary Spirit, will be registered in the Beginner's Skillbook (the "dot" tab). It is used like any other skill - you can either set it to a hotkey or double-click the icon in the Skill Menu. Upon activating it, a window opens, where you can click the drop-down menus to select the items you want to make. Remember that you only know the recipes for equipment of your class, and only if you are at most 5 levels below the level requirement for that piece of equipment. Once you have selected an item, the materials required are displayed, as well as how much of each material you have. Click "Create" to make the item once you have enough materials. Take note that Gachapon-exclusive equipment such as the Doomsday Staff can't be forged.
Is there any chance of failure?
There is absolutely no chance to fail when using the Maker skill, unless you add in a Stimulator. In this case, there will be a 10% chance of failure, but the equipment might have better stats if the forging succeeds. The chance of failure is reduced by the Hands stat, which is calculated by DEX+INT+LUK.
So will the stats of the equipment be fixed?
Nope, they may be below average, average, or above average. Of course, if you add in Stimulators or Jewels, you may get better stats than usual.

I have made 2 reverse weapons Wand - average tma 133, + wand sim + Inter Crystal + Inter Jewel + Int Dark Crystal what i got : Wand ma 133 + 3 int = TMA 136 ************************* Staff - average tma 135 + staff sim + adv Crystal + Adv Jewel + Adv DC what I got : Staff ma 140 + 6 int = TMA 146 **************** For information, pls, what I derived from here was like scrolling, still depend on your luk !! |
That's the Mystery Forging option. You MUST know the exact combination of materials needed to forge the equipment in order to use this function. By using this, you can forge equipment for ANY class. Do take note that the items you use will not disappear unless forging succeeds. The recipes for the equipments can be found at Link #1. A printable version (courtesy of chrisloup) can be found at Link #2.
Why can't I make any more equipment past Lv70?
Lv1 Maker skill only allows you to make equipment up to Lv70. In order to forge higher leveled equipment, you will have to complete a simple little quest at Lv75 to level up the Maker skill to Lv2. You will then be able to forge equipment up to Lv100. Similarly, at Lv105, you can complete yet another quest to attain Maker Lv3, which allows you to forge equipment up to Lv120 (maybe Lv200, but that remains to be seen). The quest procedures have been so kindly listed down by rainday37 here:
Quote:
Level 2 require you to collect lvl 71-80 mob drop x 100 and convert them into a monster crystal. Talk to Stan again to get your lvl2 skill. Do note that there is a chance that Stan will reject your crystal. Just re-do another monster crystal and pray he will accept it. Level 3 require you to collect 6 Gold Plate, 2 Steel Plate and a Lidum. |
What is "Disassembling"?
The "Disassemble" option destroys equipment to create monster crystals. It is likely that only forgeable equipment can be disassembled, and that you will receive the monster crystal required to forge it.
What is "Monster Crystal"?
Monster Crystal is a raw material that is required to make ALL equipment. Different grades and qualities of Monster Crystals are required for different sets of equipment. The better the equipment, the better the Crystals must be. Monster Crystals are made using the Maker skill, from 100 ETC drops of any monster Lv31 or higher that can be found in the Monster Book (credits to zidanedagger). Take note that you must have at least one empty ETC slot in order to turn the drops into Monster Crystals as you may get a better Crystal than the drop's supposed to give you.
The Crystals you can get are as follows:
Basic Monster Crystal 1 - ETC drops of mobs from Lv31~50
Basic Monster Crystal 2 - ETC drops of mobs from Lv51~60
Basic Monster Crystal 3 - ETC drops of mobs from Lv61~70
Intermediate Monster Crystal 1 - ETC drops of mobs from Lv71~80
Intermediate Monster Crystal 2 - ETC drops of mobs from Lv81~90
Intermediate Monster Crystal 3 - ETC drops of mobs from Lv91~100
Advanced Monster Crystal 1 - ETC drops of mobs from Lv101~110
Advanced Monster Crystal 2 - ETC drops of mobs from Lv111~120
Advanced Monster Crystal 3 - ETC drops of mobs from Lv121~200
So how about weapons that aren't "coloured"?
They require metal plates instead of Magic Powder. The metal plates required are:
Bronze - Lv50 for non-mage. Lv48 for wands, Lv55 for staves.
Steel - Lv60/70 for non-mage. Lv58/68 for wands, Lv65/75 for staves.
Mithril - Lv80/90 for non-mage. Lv78/88 for wands, Lv85/95 for staves.
Adamantium - Lv100/110 for non-mage. Lv98/108 for wands, Lv110 for staves.
Orihalcon - Lv120 for non-mage. Lv118 for wands, Lv120 for Staves.
What's with the "Jewel" option in the recipes?
You can add in graded jewels while forging equipment. You will have to use the Maker skill to grade the jewels before you can use them for forging. Different jewels give different stats to the equipment. You can't put in more than one of the same jewel for any equipment. Do take note that the stats in question can go either up or down. Here is a list of the stats given by each of the jewels:
[Basic, Intermediate, Advanced]
Diamond: Weapon Attack [1, 2, 3] – Only usable on weapons
Sapphire: Magic Attack [1, 2, 3] – Only usable on weapons
Garnet: Accuracy [2, 3, 5]
Opal: Avoid [2, 3, 5]
Aquamarine: Jump [1, 2, 3]
Amethyst: Speed [1, 2, 3]
Topaz: HP [10, 20, 30]
Emerald: MP [10, 20, 30]
Black Crystal: Random [1, 2, 3]
Dark Crystal: Random [2, 3, 5]
Power Crystal: STR [2, 3, 5]
DEX Crystal: DEX [2, 3, 5]
Wisdom Crystal: INT [2, 3, 5]
LUK Crystal: LUK [2, 3, 5]
Secret Crystal: Level Requirement [-1, -2, -3] – Not yet available in game.

Anything I should take note of on the grading of jewels?
It is possible to upgrade the jewels you have. This requires 10 jewels of the same grade. However, according to GreyMan, it's not worth upgrading your jewels to make them better.
Quote:
I have tried grading some diamonds to basic grade diamonds (+1 WA)... there is a chance that you will obtain intermediate (+2 WA) and advance grade diamond (+3 WA) as well. The fee to grade 1 diamond is 110k meso. After obtaining 10 basic grade diamonds, you can upgrade it 1 intermediate diamond with a fee of 330k and a chance of failing. If fail, 9 basic grade diamonds will be returned and 1 will be consumed. As you can see, the fee to make grade your jewels can be very costly, I think it is advisable to only grade them to basic grade and hoping to obtain an advance grade by chance. If not, you are going to waste a lot of meso.. ![]() |

Quests requiring the Maker skill
How do I make the items for Keol's quests? What do I get for all my trouble?
Once you've received the quest, you'll be able to find the recipe for the item in the Maker skill's ETC category.
Here's a list of the items required and the quest rewards. Quest items provided by NGPriest of Aquila PB, rewards provided by OldCh4ngKee, edited by Torchic111:
I can't find (item's name)!
Check Hidden-street, you'll probably find it there. There are a few things that you may not be able to find though.
Thimble - Drops from Red Porky. Not listed in Hidden-street.
Strengthened Mithril Fragment - Drops from Reinforced Mithril Mutae. Hidden-street lists this as Hardened Piece of Mithril.
Cable Bundle - Drops from Roid. Hidden-street lists this as Wires. I'm pretty sure it's called Wires in-game as well.
Magic Powder - Not listed in Hidden-street. Check the next section of this guide. Some of the monsters are listed (your help is needed to locate all of them!)
Magic Powder
What is "Magic Powder"?
Magic Powder is a raw material that is required for all armour and coloured weapons (e.g. Dark Slain). Magic Powders are semi-rare, and you're unlikely to find even one without killing mobs for hours. They come in eight colours; Black, Blue, Brown, Green, Purple, Red, White and Yellow. Magic Powders are used as dyes for equipment, so they are used to make only equipment of the same colour as they are.
So which Magic Powder is the best?
There isn't one. Powders don't contribute to the stats of the items, just their colour. I guess you could argue that, in this case, Black & White powders would be the best, since black & white equips tend to give better stats. Anyway, all jobs have at least 1 black equip, so I guess Black Powders would be most in demand. White powders won't be far behind, though
Do monsters drop only powder of the same colour as they are?
The answer is no. Monsters drop whatever coloured powder the programmers made them drop. It has no link whatsoever to their own colour. There are a few of them who drop powders of the same colour as they are, however (e.g. Rumo drops green powder).
