   Two-handed Blade Smithing is essential for a warrior who likes to hunt light. This skill allows you to smith two-handed weaponry to make it lighter and do more damage.

   There are four kinds of blade-smithed two-handed weaponry. Good, being the least impressive; Fine, an good blade; Grand, a magnificant blade; and Great, the best kind of blade-smithing there is. Good weapons makes your blades have a +1 bonus to your damage and are 20% lighter than normal. Fine is a +2 bonus and 40% lighter. Grand is a +3 bonus and 60% lighter. Finally, Great is a +4 bonus and 80% lighter. Practice your blade-smithing every day, with an assistant if you can, on normal two-handed weaponry that you can buy at the Tagor Warrior Training Grounds. The more you practice, the better you get.

   Two-handed Blade Smithing is a very costly task and has its limits. You must purchase plain Two-handed Claidhmores, Emerald Swords, Gladiuses, or Kindjals. These are the only weapons you can blade smith. If you practice alone you will end up breaking a lot of blades or doing nothing to them all the way until you master blade smithing. You can blade smith until your legend reports that you have reached level 10 in bladesmithing. After that you cannot advance any farther.

   For smithing a good blade you will get +1 rank to your blade smithing and 500 experience. A fine blade will give you +2 ranks and 5,000 experience. A grand blade will give you +3 ranks and 25,000 experience. A great blade will give you +4 ranks and 75,000 experience. Once you reach 50 ranks, your blade smithing advances one level with 10 being the maximum level.


Here is a table of what you will blade-smith per legend level [assistance gives you a much greater chance of success]
