One of the favorite things to do in MMOs is craft. This game is no different. To start crafting doesn't cost anything and can be achieved after completing the starter quest and travelling to the first major city (or "hub"). Once there, you simply talk to the guild master of the crafter's guild and are given a quest chain for the guild. In addition, recipes are purchasable, as are most materials from vendors right near the crafting station in the cities. Unlike other MMOs, crafting can be done anywhere in game and does not require an anvil, forge, loom or other crafting implement. You can even take a few moments in a dungeon after clearing it and use some of the dropped items to craft.
One nice feature of crafting, which is very similar to Guild Wars, is the ability to break down dropped loot into base crafting components. Most non magical items are broken down into crude scraps and the like, whereas magical items break down into, obviously, more valuable or more rare crafting materials.
