T8 Carving and Knife System Change

July 2018: An entirely new carving and knife system was introduced, replacing the previous system. Knives have new names and capabilities and some knives can be sharpened.

Things we know:


  • Knives must now be equipped (or "wielded") for use.
:Self->Equipment 
  • Equipping a knife will remove it from your inventory and place it in your hand (silly graphic included), freeing up inventory space.
  • The menu option to unequip the knife returns the tool to your inventory.
  • A tool belt to allow you to carry various tools, though not yet implemented, will eventually be craftable .
  • Old, pre-system-change Knives should still be usable. Un-assembled Iron Knife Blades currently can not be made into anything - a fix for this is still being worked out.
  • Old Flint Knives (previously First Degree) have changed names to the new First Degree "Stone Knives". Other old knives have have "Old" added to the name. IE: "Old Glass Knife"
  • New Knife types are
    • "Stone Knife" (First Degree) - Made from a Stone Blade
    • "Flint Knife" (Second Degree) - Made from a Flint Blade
    • "Bone Knife" (Third Degree) - Made from a Bone Blade
    • "Utility Knife" (Fourth Degree) - Made from a Sharp Blade
    • "Paring Knife" (Fifth Degree) - Made from a Jagged Edge Blade
    • "Butcher Knife" (Sixth Degree) - Made from a Twice-Folded Blade


This system is actively under development and refinement. As such, some options or functions may not currently be in working order.


Degrees of the Carving skill are now available at different player levels than before. The new levels required to learn each degree of the skill and the tuition costs are as follows:

Use

Timer: Focus

Each degree of Carving allows you to carve certain items, using a knife with quality equal or better than that level. It also allows you to assemble the next level knife (so you can craft the tuition for the next level).

When you carry multiple knifes with you and carve, the highest quality knife is used, and if more than one of that level is carried, the one which has been used the least.

  • A flint knife breaks at the 25th use
  • An iron knife at the 100th
  • A sharp-edged knife at probably about 200-300 uses.

Therefore, always use the lowest level knife needed for the item to be carved and unequip higher level knives.

Level Knife Available Knife Cost Carve
First Knife:Flint
Second Knife:Glass (quality 2)
Third Knife:Iron (quality 3)
Fourth Knife:Sharp Edge (quality 4)
Fifth None
  • Tackle boxes, Wooden Cogs, and wood chips do not exist except in the Carving 5 menu to make them, which you cannot do.
