Gather Materials and Craft Gear Following the Progression Path
Understanding Linear Progression
Age of Dragons Mod guides you through a clear sequence of material gathering and crafting. You won't find endgame armor recipes available from the start—instead, each boss you defeat unlocks access to better gear tiers. Follow this path: gather basic materials, craft starter armor, defeat the first boss, unlock new recipes, gather upgraded materials, and repeat.
Using Crafting Stations
The mod includes specialized crafting stations beyond the vanilla crafting table. These stations are essential for creating better gear and performing upgrades. Set up a crafting area near your base and gather the stations you need as they become available.
Reforging Your Weapons and Armor
Once you have gear, the reforging system lets you improve it further. This isn't a one-time upgrade—you can enhance weapons and armor multiple times to boost their stats. Plan your reforging strategy around the bosses you're preparing to face, prioritizing the gear that will help you survive their specific attack patterns.
