| - In addition to the questing and looting component of Edon, there is a comprehensive crafting and trading mechanism. Players can choose to be involved in the crafting sub-game as much or as little as they like. Within Edon, magic items can be found as loot (looted items) or manufactured from components (crafted items). Characters will tend to use a mix of looted and crafted items, as depending upon the character build, items can be used to augment character strengths or to shore up character weaknesses. Looted items can be found randomly in most encounters, with a few set piece looted items located in the game. Crafted items are constructed from resources scattered through the game, which are then harvested and crafted, by specialist crafting characters. The most powerful looted items are considered ‘ultra rare’ and as they are often class specific, players often trade looted items, to increase the ‘power’ of their characters.
