Classification

Villager, Camp Merchant

The blacksmith is a camp merchant that can be found within the Camp after being saved by the heroes in the Redstone Mines of Minecraft Dungeons.

Unlike the armorer in Minecraft, blacksmiths cover their face with their mask, and have a purple glyph on their apron. The captured blacksmith, however, directly resembles Minecraft's armorer.

Lore

The blacksmith has a lot of patience and dedication.[1]

After the final defeat of the Orb of Dominance at the Broken Citadel, the blacksmith attended a celebration at the Camp without wearing their usual mask.

On an unidentified stone-like road, the blacksmith struggled to drag along the illager-made weapon named the Stormlander.[2]

Interaction

The blacksmith can upgrade items in exchange for emeralds. To do this, the hero must sacrifice the item to the blacksmith. After completing three missions, the hero gets the upgraded weapon. The power level of the upgraded item is determined by the difficulty of the three missions the hero completed as well as the hero's power level while being upgraded. Although all enchantments on the item are removed, the choices of available enchantments are the same as those of the original item. If enchantment points were spent on that item before, the hero receives them all back after sacrificing item to the Blacksmith.

The number of emeralds required to upgrade an item depends on its rarity, costing the least with common items, and costing the most with gilded items. Gilded items cost about three times as much as the same gear without being gilded. The number of Emeralds also depends on the type of the item, costing the most with artifacts, and also dependent on how many times the item has been upgraded before.

Behavior

Prior to the Creeping Winter update, the captured blacksmith was a merchant who would sell heroes a random weapon or armor set that would be equivalent to their power level, it would be in the camp along with the wandering trader, who would sell artifacts. It would appear in the hero's camp after beating the Creeper Woods mission. It was overhauled in the Creeping Winter update and was made to upgrade items instead of giving them, along with its appearance being changed. Its original functionality has been replaced by the mystery merchant.

Quotes

BLACKSMITH – The Blacksmith will trade your Emeralds for a randomized piece of gear. The higher your level, the better the gear will be. There's also a Mason, who will give you Diamond Dust in exchange for Emeralds. Diamond Dust can be used to increase the Power Level of a piece of gear.
