How to Craft & Cook Items in Fields of Mistria

Learning how to craft and cook items is essential for progressing in Fields of Mistria. This guide will walk you through the process of crafting at the anvil and cooking at the stove, so you can create the tools and food you need to succeed in your adventure.

Crafting at the Anvil

Finding the Anvil

To begin crafting, head up from your cottage into town. You’ll spot a large anvil in the town area. Approach it and press the use button to interact with it.

Understanding the Crafting Menu

Once you interact with the anvil, you’ll see a menu displaying all the different items you can craft. These items range from shovels and fishing rods to bug nets and various other tools.

Selecting an Item to Craft

To craft an item, click on it from the menu. For example, if you want to make a copper net, you’ll need four copper ingots. The crafting menu will show you exactly how many of each material you need and what skill level is required.

Gathering Materials

If you don’t have the required materials on hand, you can purchase them from the store in town or mine them yourself. For instance, you can buy copper ingots from the local merchant.

Crafting Your Item

Once you have the necessary materials, the crafting menu will display detailed information about your selected item:

How many of the item you currently have available to craft

The required skill level needed

A description of the item (for example, “An ingot of solid copper used in a variety of blacksmithing and crafting recipes”)

How long the crafting process will take

The quantity you can make (1, 2, 3, etc.)

Once you’ve confirmed your selection, simply click okay and the item will be crafted for you.

Cooking at the Stove

Finding the Cooking Station

In addition to crafting weapons and tools, you can also cook food in Fields of Mistria. Head down into the town and look for a large building on the left side. Inside, you’ll find a cutting table or stove where cooking takes place.

Understanding Cooking Recipes

Cooking is another form of crafting in Fields of Mistria. When you interact with the cooking station, you’ll see available recipes. For example, wild berry jam is a popular recipe that requires wild berries and sugar, plus level one and two cooking skill.

Preparing Your Meal

Similar to crafting at the anvil, the cooking menu will display all relevant information about the dish you’re preparing:

Required ingredients and how many you currently have

Necessary cooking skill level

Health and happiness benefits the cooked item will provide

Cooking time required

Once you have all the necessary ingredients and confirm your selection by pressing okay, your meal will be cooked.

Summary

Crafting and cooking are core mechanics in Fields of Mistria that allow you to create essential tools and nourishing food. Whether you’re at the anvil crafting equipment or at the stove preparing meals, both processes follow a similar pattern: gather materials, select your item, and confirm to create it. Master these skills early to ensure you have the tools and sustenance needed for your journey through Fields of Mistria.
