Craftsman

The class toolkit

Named progression abilities are part of the class pool. Level gates are not extra ability slots. Selected-path, resource, and activation requirements still apply.

In the story and on the track

Craftsmen turn gathered Materials into gear, consumables, and structures during a match. Their work falls into six trade families. A Craftsman's workbench follows them into the contest, whether it looks like a smith's kit, a chef's station, or a bag full of carefully labeled scraps. Teammates learn to call out useful Materials as eagerly as enemy positions. A good commission can become a guild tradition: the same protective stitching before a difficult run, the same meal before a rivalry match. Every trade puts a different kind of preparation into the team's hands.

Resource rhythm

Craftsmen gather Common, Uncommon, and Rare Materials from the arena. Those Materials supply the class's recipes and construction abilities.

Trade families and paths

How it fits a build

Class and Spec each occupy one of the four core ability slots. Six stat slots complete the ten-ability layout. Class progression abilities are slot-free and level-gated; selecting a path does not automatically grant every alternative path. Costs, targets, timing, and access requirements still apply.
