With this skill, warriors and samurais can restore damaged items as well as official repairers of large cities. The item needs to be heated in the campfire flame and treated with a forge hammer. A lit forge works as well as a campfire. Every attempt at mending metal uses up one piece of scrap metal or a plain ingot (iron, tin, copper or brass): carry it or lay it at your feet. Pieces of metal turn up in mines and in broken metal gear.

Crafters of profession level 5 learn this skill too, each for their own trade: a blacksmith mends metal with a hammer by the fire, a carpenter mends wood with an axe or a knife, a jeweler mends rings, amulets, earrings, bracelets, precious-metal masks and gemstone items with a graver. Wood and gems need no fire, but each attempt still uses up one part: sawdust or sticks and splinters for wood, platinum, gold or silver shavings for jewelry. A successful repair also strips corrosion from the item, and a corroded item can be repaired even at full condition. Unique items and gear bound to someone else cannot be repaired.
