💡 Beginner Tips

  • Make sure to talk to the boss at each location to get the job and materials — you can't just start crafting on your own.
  • For blacksmithing jobs, check if the blacksmith offers an improve job, as not all do.
  • If you're using a mod manager, let it handle the file placement to avoid overwriting other mods.
