Production
Players can produce items/goods (weapons, food, etc.) using Recipe Books (or NPC Recipes) and necessary materials if the player has both the appropriate skills and proper Rank for the item/goods they wish to produce.
Skills
The proficiency of the Production skills increase each time Production is performed. Productions skills are acquired from Merchant Guilds, or from NPCs residing in Mansions around the world.

Recipes
To perform Production, Recipe Books are required in addition to necessary Production skill; some Recipe Books can be purchased at the Item Shops in Cities. Up to 16 Recipe Books can be stored in the Binder inside your character Inventory.
Materials
Gather necessary material items/goods written on the recipe Book. Some materials can be purchased from the Market Keeper. You can also collect some of them on land or sea if you have the Collection skill.
Have the appropriate skills ready and make sure you have the proper Rank for the item/goods you wish to produce.
Performing Production
Use the Recipe Book from the “Use Item” window and select the item/goods you wish to produce.
If your Production is “Great Success”, you will be able to produce more items/goods than usual, or even higher-end items/goods.
Production at NPCs
Some NPCs have recipes that will allow you to produce items/goods which are not found in Recipe Books. The process is similar to the one using a Recipe Book, but NPC recipes cannot be taken along with the player, so NPC Production has to be done where that NPC is located.
