'''Forging''' is one of the five [[crafting]] skills that deals with the creation of items from metal.
One of the proposed new [[page type is::skill]]s to replace Mechanical Lore in the (relatively) near future. Currently unavailable in the game as a skill, but the [[Blacksmithing discipline]], [[Weaponsmithing discipline]], and [[Armorsmithing discipline]] have been released.


==Disciplines==
Forging requires some large, set in place tools to practice, such as a crucible and an anvil. There are places in the realms that are equipped for forgers and open to the public: the [[Riverhaven Forging Society]], [[Crossing Forging Society]], [[Shard Forging Society]], Rathan Forging Society, and the Hibarnhvidar Forging Society.
Forging is divided into three disciplines:
*[[Armorsmithing discipline|Armorsmithing]]: the creation of metal armors and shields
*[[Blacksmithing discipline|Blacksmithing]]: the creation of metal tools, containers, and other utility items
*[[Weaponsmithing discipline|Weaponsmithing]]: the creation of metal weaponry


==Practice==
==Training==
Training the Forging skill is accomplished by creating products at a [[Forging Society]]. The process for Forging begins with the formation of a metal ingot, which is then heated and shaped on an anvil, cooled, and assembled into a final product. [[Work order]]s within the released disciplines can be obtained from a Master/Mistress within each Forging Society, giving players the option of being compensated for their work in this skill.
Experience is gained relative to difficulty for your skill, so if items of one tier of difficulty don't lend my experience you can try working with a more difficult material or the next higher tier of difficulty.
