==Notes==
*Using this craft skill requires an anvil and a Smith's Hammer, in addition to the appropriate materials (metal ingots, wooden planks, and/or leather hides) and a mold for the desired weapon. The character places all components, including the mold, in the anvil's inventory, then uses the smith's hammer's special ability on the anvil. If the character has enough ranks in Craft Weapon, the new item is created. The mold for each specific weapon lists which materials a weapon requires. One mold represents one crafted weapon.
*In order to create a weapon, all materials used to craft that weapon must be of the same type. For example, crafting a longsword requires two metal ingots. In order to create a darksteel longsword, two darksteel ingots must be used.

*The modified skill requirements for crafting weapons are:

![[Weapon Proficiency]]
!Skill Rank

![[Weapon Proficiency (simple) | Simple melee weapons]]

![[Weapon Proficiency (martial) | Martial melee weapons]]
!5 ranks
!Crossbows and Bolts
|-
![[Weapon Proficiency (exotic) | Exotic melee weapons]]
!8 ranks
|}
<br />
*Falchions are, for the purpose of crafting, labeled as Exotic weapons instead of Martial. This is probably a bug.
*Weapons can be crafted from basic materials (iron and wood), or from more exotic components, such as mithral or Shederran wood. Exotic materials increase the skill requirement to craft a weapon, but also provide additional benefits:

*To bypass certain damage reduction, alchemical silver and cold iron weapons may also need the Good property.
*When using exotic materials to craft, the exotic material bonuses (one enchantment slot) count against the enchantment limit.
*If a character is short of skill ranks, she can temporarily increase them by use of magic items, feats ([[Inspire Competence]]), and spells ([[Fox's Cunning]], [[Heroism]]).
