Flint Knapping

Allows the creation of flint blades using your Skills/Blades menu. To attempt to make a Flint Blade, you need to learn to knap flint. Strike slate against the flint until it is sharp.

Sources

Taught at the School of Architecture at Level 3 and requires mastery of all 7 levels of Stone Blade Fabrication.

Cost

• 7 Flint

Use

Allows you to make Flint Blades from 1 Flint and 1 Slate. Assuming the knapping was successful, the Flint will be consumed in the process and the Slate will remain in your inventory.

Menu: Self → Skills → Blades → Make a Flint Blade

General

The Flint Blade Fabrication skill starts at level 1. Each time you attempt to make a Flint Blade, one of two things will happen:

1. The Slate chips a razor thin shard of flint away, destroying your flint, leaving behind a Flint Blade.
2. The Slate will shatter but the Flint will remain intact. When this happens, your Flint Blade Fabrication skill will increase by 1.

A higher skill level will decrease the chance of failing. At level 7 (max level), you have a 100% success chance of making a Flint Blade.

Blade Fabrication

Various knife blades can be made. You must be at the correct level and have completed all 7 levels of proficiency for the previous blade type before you can learn the next level.

Blade types and Carving Skill are not the same. Blade Skill allows the crafting of particular types of knives. Carving Skill allows the whittling of various objects. The kinds of objects you can make with Carving Skill maybe be dependent on the type of blade you wield.
