Description

A Blacksmith (thrall) can be placed in the Thrall slot of the  Blacksmith's Bench,  Improved Blacksmith's Bench,  Garrison Blacksmith's Bench,  Campaign Blacksmith's Bench as well as  Tinker's Bench and  Casting Table.
A Blacksmith (thrall) can also be placed at the  Artisan Table,  Khitan Artisan Table,  Aquilonian Artisan Table,  Turanian Artisan Table and  Argossean Artisan Table, but does not provide any benefits.

Benefits

Every type of blacksmith increases the weapon damage, the armor penetration, the durability of weapons and tools and decreases their weight. This scales first with their rank (T1-T4) and then, depending on the stat in question, with their Specialization.

• There are 3 types of Tier 4 Blacksmiths with different bonuses:
  • Edgesmiths provide maximum armor penetration.
  • Bladesmiths provide maximum damage.
  • Tempersmiths provide maximum durability.

Benefits

Weapon damage bonus	+3.2%	+4%	+5.7%	+6%	+23%	+10.7%
Relative armor penetration bonus	+3%	+5.5%	+5.5%	+23%	+5.5%	+10.3%
Durability bonus	+3%	+5.8%	+13.6%	+31%	+31%	+44%
Weight decrease	-4%	-9.3%	-12.6%	-12.6%	-12.6%	-12.6%

Notes

• With the 2.1 Update to Conan Exiles, the crafting speed benefits for blacksmiths have been erased, as this has been baked into the various blacksmith crafting benches.
• Purge thralls do not seem to have any additional benefit whatsoever, beyond their Specialization.
• Armor penetration bonus values are shown relative based off of the original value, i.e. 10% -> 11% gives a 10% increase.
• Armor penetration bonus scales with base armor penetration. So if a weapon has 0% armor penetration, Edgesmiths won't provide any bonus.
• All the values are derived from manual testing in game. Internal rounding results in minor variations.

Bonus Recipes

• The  Legendary Weapon Repair Kits can be made by a Tempersmith in a  Tinker's Bench.
• Tier 3 and 4 Blacksmith (thrall)s grant the recipe Reinforce which add a different way to make a  Steel Reinforcement with one  Iron Reinforcement and one  Steelfire.
