# Crafting

You can improve items you own - if the luck is on your side, you can "breed" **two items of same rarity** and get one item of **higher rarity**. Unfortunately, the law of conservation of energy still exists, so old things would give away all their energy and disappear. Shall we dig deeper in crafting theory? ## How to craft a new item Crafting items is a game mechanics that allow players to turn two cheaper items into one better item. To start with crafting, go to your inventory by clicking the **burger menu** button on the left top of **Home screen**:

Burger menu has three buttons - you need the third one

Click on **Inventory** button that looks like a backpack, then choose **Breed** or **Craft**:

Pick two items to combine in left and right side of screen, then press **Combine**:

Combine button also shows price of crafting

Now both items will disappear and you will get a **brand new item** which will show up in your inventory. Keep in mind that crafting isn't free and costs certain number of carrots, as it's show on screenshot above.

## What crafting is for? Metaforest has 3 level of items rarity: 1. **Common** that comes from lootboxes. 2. **Uncommon** that can be crafted from 2 Common items with 40% chance (the other 60% goes for new Common item with different attributes) 3. **Rare** that can be crafted from 2 Uncommon items with 20% chance (the other 80% goes for new Uncommon item with different attributes)

40% chance to get Uncommon item if you craft two Common items

### Getting better attributes You may want to use crafting to **improve your bunny attributes** with a new item. Say, you have two Common items that you don't use. You can craft them and get a new Common (up to +2 to random attributes) or Uncommon (up to +4) item. And if you manage to craft two Uncommon items into a single Rare item, then it's +8 to random attributes. Pretty good, isn't it? However, keep in mind that your brand new crafted item may be equipped in a **different slot**. Like if you craft two hats and get an item for right hand. Also need to know that new crafted item can bring different number of attributes, not always maximal. **Common** gives +1 or +2, **Uncommon** gives +3 or +4, **Rare** gives +7 or +8. ### Rare items The other reason to craft is to get some extras due to items **rarity**. At this moment, each **Rare** items increases daily carrot gains limit by +200. **Rare** items can be sold using ingame market, even though it may be not so obviously good idea. Say, as of end of October 2022, **Uncommon** item costs around 1000-1500 carrots on ingame market. However, even though average cost of **Common** item is around 500 carrots, you may risk to lose 1000 carrots during 5 attempts to craft a new item, and in the end you may have less carrots than you had before you started to craft! So always think twice before you start crafting. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
