Crafting is back in Kundarak!
The crafting hall is back up and running in Cannith. If you are new to crafting or would like some more information there are a couple articles previously posted to tell you more. Check out Crafting in Kundarak for crafting basics and More on crafting- bound or unbound for an explanation on creating shards and weapons.

More on Crafting - Bound or unbound?
While deconstructing will get you crafting experience, creating shards and crafting weapons will give you more experience. Bound shards are easier to make, giving the crafter a broader selection of recipes to create. The down side is, like anything bound, its yours. No auction, no trading, it will be with you forever and ever.
Unbound shards allow the crafter to make weapon enhancements that can be sold or traded. The downside to the unbound is the selection is less because the crafting difficulty is higher.
What I have found helpful is to create some bound weapons for yourself first - if you hate them you can always break them back down again. Once your crafting level increases, try your hand at the unbound weapons. DO NOT equip an unbound weapon to check it out - it becomes bound to the person who equips it.
