Creating a New Crafted Weapon Page
Welcome, Drifter!
This guide will help you create new crafted weapon pages.
Crafted weapons are items made through the crafting professions system, using specific recipes and materials.
Steps to Create a New Crafted Weapon Page
1. Create the Page
Enter the name of the crafted weapon exactly as it will appear in-game.
For variations based on materials (e.g., Newhaven Copper Ingot vs Highlands Copper Ingot), use the format:
Item Name/Secondary Material Name
Examples:
- Highlands Copper Great Axe/Highlands Pine
- Newhaven Copper Great Axe/Timberlands Pine
This ensures that each variation has its own clean page without confusing other readers.
2. Use the CraftedWeapon Template
On the new page, copy paste template below.
If you use the Create Center the template will already be preloaded for you.
It looks like this:
{{CraftedWeapon | name = | tooltip_image = | weapon_type = | damage_min = | damage_max = | delay = | range = | angle = | OHAC = | durability = | stat1_name = | stat1_value = | stat2_name = | stat2_value = | stat3_name = | stat3_value = | stat4_name = | stat4_value = | stat5_name = | stat5_value = | stat6_name = | stat6_value = | front_value = | front_type = | front_percentage = | side_value = | side_type = | side_percentage = | rear_value = | rear_type = | rear_percentage = | level_requirement = | class_requirement1 = | class_requirement2 = | class_requirement3 = | crafting_profession = | recipe_page = | component1_name = | component1_material = | component2_name = | component2_material = | component3_name = | component3_material = | component4_name = | component4_material = | component5_name = | component5_material = | model_image1 = | model_image2 = | model_image3 = }}
3. Filling Out Details

4. Save the Page
Once you have filled everything out, preview the page carefully before saving.

Notes
- Contributors should double-check the exact recipe names and material types used.
- If a weapon has multiple versions (due to different component materials), create separate pages for each.
