A player who is a full-member of the merchant guild has the ability to open up his own shop in a city. In such shops, other players can seek the services of an NPC blacksmith trained by the merchant. Services such as repairing and resizing equipment are available. The quality and price of service vary from shop to shop. Some shops may not be able to provide services due to lack of materials if the owner hasn't been restocking it. Keep in mind that the shops have a bigger chance of mangling equipment compared to a well-trained player merchant. The owner of shop is not responsible for any lost equipment. Additionally, attacking an NPC blacksmith, an action frowned upon, will cause it to send out a distress call to many different public channels. |
