Runescape Pottery Crafting Guide
The Begiiner's Primer on How to Make RS Items from Clay
Pots, pans, bowls, and pie plates are useful items that characters can make for use in another trade skill.
Runescape players can enjoy a number of trade skills, but the trade skill called crafting would make up a number of other trade skills in other mmorpgs. The word count limitations on Suite 101 articles make it necessary to cover each aspect of Runescape crafting individually.
Pots, bowels, and other miscellaneous items are needed in other Runescape trade skills, such as cooking and construction. A character can use the crafting skill to make pieces of pottery out of clay.
Complementary Skills to Use Crafting to Make Pottery in Runescape
Pieces of pottery are often needed in cooking recipes. Learning how to make pieces of pottery can reduce the costs associated with preparing a good meal for his character or other players. A player's crafting costs costs can be further cut if he uses the mining skill
to find clay.
Using the Crafting Skill to Make Pottery
Characters using the crafting skill to make clay do so using a process that is a considerably scaled down version of what potters use in real life to make their wears. Once a Runescape character softens the clay he wants to make into a pot, bowl, or pie dish he must then travel to a pottery wheel.
After the character shapes the piece of pottery on the wheel, his creation should be placed in the oven to be fied. If the firing process for a pottery item made using the crafting skill is successful, the character earns a small amount of crafting experience and a can use the piece of pottery he created via the crafting skill.
