Happy Holidays!

     From all of us at Castle of Crafts, we wish you the happiest and safest of Holidays! So please be careful while facing Krampus ;)

Fire Wizards Aquila Gear, Level 30

     This week's in depth study of Aquila gear compares the original set of Senator's Radient gear that is dropped to the Adept's Radiant Set that you may craft. Are the properties increased enough to make it worth your time, effort, and reagents? You'll need to judge for yourself as only you know exactly what needs you have and which boosts you want specifically. Every wizard has their own idea of the perfect gear after all.

12 Days of the Spiral

     On the first day of the Spiral KingsIsle gave to us, a brand new, three part dungeon! Can't get enough of Krampus? Well you're in luck because he's the star! They have also changed the animation of the Krampus spell, it looks cooler than ever before, even as Krampus uses it against you.

Myth Wizards Guide to Crafting Level 30 Aquila Gear

     Yes! Aquila gear DOES come in Myth yellow. My suggestion: RUN, do not walk, to the Dye Shop with this. I get that you want to show your Myth School pride - I do too! I choose to do so with Myth Blue though, and this outfit does look pretty sharp when dyed Myth Blue. Way better than that bright, glaring, retina burning yellow.

Azteca Housing - Part 3 - Crafting with Savvy

     Hello there! We are continuing with Aztecan crafted housing this week and I will be covering the Azure Azteca Column, Azteca Kiln, Azteca Scaffolding and the Carved Atlatl (a spear thrower). These recipes range from 27,000 to 33,750 gold, require you to be a Transcendent Crafter and are all available from Cantares Five Flowers in the SaltMeadow Swamp, he has been enjoying all of the company and visitors.

So Many Possibilities in Mirage

     A whole new world, with new horizons to pursue. Where have I heard that before? Hmm, Anyhow - Mirage! It is as vast and wonderful as it looks. Beautiful vistas and new companions, strange new creatures, and sand dunes that you can explore without tripping over tree roots or getting stuck on cracks in the sidewalks. And the crafting? Yyeahh. As you can see, I'm still sporting my Khrysalis gear. On a good note, I think I'm quite content with the fact that I'm not wearing Polarian clothing. I would be so overheated it wouldn't even be funny.

Test Realm is Open!

     This interruption in your normal crafting program is brought to you by KingsIsle! Dezzy and I have found ourselves in an alternate realm that seems to have put us slightly back in time to some point a few days ago but in this alternate spiral we're no longer maxed and there are all kinda of things for us to explore! I'm bursting with all the things that I want to tell you but I don't want to ruin the surprises so I'm only going to tell you about some key points.
