Weaponsmith

General
Weaponsmiths can be found in all cities and some outposts and most will have the label [Weapons] next to their names.

Customizing Weapons
For a fee of 10 gold most weaponsmiths can customize a primary weapon for you, which will increase its damage by 20%, but it means that no other character except the one it is customized for can use that weapon.

Crafting Weapons
Most weaponsmiths are known as weapon crafters too, offering to craft weapons for you if you have sufficient gold and crafting materials. Unlike armor, crafted weapons do not come customized "out of the box", which means you can trade them with other players or hand them over between your characters.

The weapons on a weapon crafter's catelogue are:
 * Axes, Hammers and Swords for Warriors, and also Shields (in Factions).
 * Bows for Rangers
 * Focus Items for spellcasting professions (Monk, Mesmer, Necromancer, Elementalist and Ritualist)
 * Canthan weaponsmiths also offer primary caster weapons (staves and wands)

Weapons crafted by weaponsmiths can be salvaged (unlike collector weapons).

Weaponsmiths purchased for a guild hall do not craft weapons, they can only customize them for the standard price of 10 gold
