Crafting › Assembly Journal

Assembly Journal

The assembly pages of the in-game adventure journal, read from the text files the game client still carries: what kind of part each kind of product is assembled from, and the skill each tier asks for.

Assembly was the third page of the recipe book, beside refining and finishing: combining finished parts, often made by different crafters, at an assembly table. In the game players recorded, that survived for ship masts, symbiotes and augments, while weapons and armour were made by finishing recipes. The journal below still describes weapons and armour as assemblies — a Short Sword from a Short Blade and a Medium Hilt, where the recorded finishing recipe takes two ingots and a Small Hilt — so it is kept apart here as an older option, in the game's own words and spelling, and is not mixed into the recipes. Where a recorded recipe's name and skill match an entry, it is listed beside it.
