Guardiancraft Introduction

Guardiancraft is the vocation used to make armors and weapons for Shamans and Dragoons. Your second choice of vocation should be Mining, since you will need it to gather materials for crafting. Guardiancraft can be learned from Bolo - Craftsman in Pokari City near the East Gate for 50 bronze. You are able to forget/delete vocations if you wish, as well as view your current exp and recipes for the vocation, by accessing the craft menu in game. To do so, press the O key, while in game of course.

Levels

Lv1 Obtained by getting the Vocation from Bolo - Craftsman.
Lv2 Requires 150 exp.
Lv3 Requires 2750 exp.
Lv4 Requires 14750 exp.
Lv5 Requires 57750 exp.
Lv6 Requires 188759 exp.
Lv7 Requires 567759 exp.

To gain exp for leveling the vocation, you can craft a bunch of items or do the Guardiancraft quests from Bolo.

Crafting

First, to be able to craft you have to learn the Recipe. Some of them can be purchased at Bolo, but others can be found killing monsters or in instances. To learn the recipe, have it in your inventory and right click on it. It then goes into your crafting menu which is accessible by pressing the O key in game. Here it lists possible recipes. The ones you do not have are grayed out. You'll see that you'll need materials to be able to make the item. For Guardiancraft you'll usually need a Hammer. You can purchase them at Jimm - Tool Merchant, who is right next to Bolo in Pokari City. You might also need some materials which can be gathered from the vocation Mining, or bought from someone else. You might also need things like Armor shards or Material Ether. These are found inside instances and have different levels. For example, level 4 Shards are found in the instance River Temple 1. You can find Material Ether by killing the monsters inside the instances.

Hammers

Hammers are one of the items you may need to be able to craft things for Guardiancraft. These can be bought at Jimm - Tool Merchant.

Apprentice Hammer - Costs 9 Silver 37 Bronze.

Gatherer Hammer - Costs 12 Silver 82 Bronze.

Why should I pick Guardiancraft?

You might think something along the lines of "I'd rather make hp potions or pet food or something.. I can buy armor.", Which is true and all but you'll need your Guardiancraft a certain level to be able to craft your level 100 diplomatic set. You'd also need it to be able to craft other things for either class Shaman or Dragoon, such as their level 25 area of effect (aoe) skill. Also, making things to try to sell or give to your friends doesn't sound too bad either right?

Title

The title for this vocation will give you +5 of an Affinity of your choice, just like Scoutcraft and Arcanecraft. Though you'll have to have the title in use in order to gain the effect. (Which is why you'll see many people using them.) Your Guardian craft must be at level 4 to get the title. The title looks like <Expert - Guardiancraft - Erda>, for example. Except you can choose the affinity you want. Also, the title is orange and you'll probably see many people with it running around.

Forgetting a Vocation

A vocation may be forgotten whenever you want if you decide you would like a different one. However, this deletes the exp you previously gain so I don't suggest it. Unless.. You reaaally want to.

This is what the craft menu looks like. When the skill you want to forget is highlighted like in the picture, the Forget button in the top left corner becomes clickable. This is how you forget the vocation.
