Crafting

📍 Jump in: Open Crafting in Pawtato Land

Architects are able to use their resources to craft items like Tools or Consumables as well as Buildings. Each requires specific materials and time to craft.

Crafting produces an item with a random rarity at following chances:

Common	77.778%
Uncommon	20%
Rare	2%
Epic	0.2%
Legendary	0.02%
Mythic	0.002%

Depending on the rarity, the result differs visually and offers better effects within a certain range at each tier.

To craft something an Architect usually needs to acquire and unlock the respective Blueprints first. The first Tools and their respective capabilities are unlocked for everyone. Further Tool Blueprints will need to be acquired via gameplay or purchased on the secondary market.

Next to the initial creation of an item or Building, Architects can also resort to Upgrading and Salvaging of existing ones.

How to craft an item or tool (step by step)

Where you craft depends on what you want to make:

• Basic Materials are crafted at their Craftsmen (Crafting Stations) on the map — Wooden Plank at the Woodwright; Stone Block, Gravel and Sand at the Mason; Iron Bar and Glass at the Blacksmith — and so are Equipment (weapons and armor) and food.

• Tools, Consumables and the more advanced Materials (such as Gold Bar and Paper) are made in the general Crafting menu.

Both follow the same start → wait → claim flow.

Tools, Consumables and Materials (general Crafting menu)

1. Open the Crafting menu from the bottom action bar (the Crafting icon).

2. In the left sidebar, pick a category: Tools, Consumables or Materials.

3. Click the item you want to make to open its crafting card.

4. Check the required materials shown under the item. If you are short, the craft button stays locked and a "Not enough resources" message appears; some missing inputs offer a shortcut button that jumps you to where that material is crafted.

5. Press the green Craft [item] button to start. (Optional: tick Finish Instantly to skip the timer for a TATO fee.)

6. Wait for the craft timer to count down. You can close the menu and the job keeps running.

7. When it is ready, press Claim [item] to receive it. Tools reveal their rarity/tier on claim.

Equipment and food (Crafting Stations)

1. On the world map, click the relevant Crafting Station building - Blacksmith, Mason, Tailor, Leatherworker, Woodwright or Cooking Station. Each station owns an exclusive set of recipes.

2. Make sure the Crafting tab is selected (stations also have Modification / Repair or Recipes tabs).

3. Pick a recipe from the grid to open its detail card.

4. Check the required materials shown below the item, exactly as in the general menu.

5. Press the green action button to start. Its label matches the station - for example Forge [item] at the Blacksmith, Craft [item] at the Mason, Tailor, Leatherworker and Woodwright, and Cook [item] at the Cooking Station. (Optional: Finish Instantly for a TATO fee.)

6. Wait for the timer. The job runs on that building's own queue, so you can leave and come back.

7. When it is ready, press the Claim button on the recipe to collect the finished item.
