Crafting events ask you to deliver a batch of low- and mid-tier crafted items in exchange for some of the most valuable materials in the game — a way to turn cheap materials into high-tier ones while levelling crafting. Each player can run them once every few hours; the cooldown only ticks down while you're in-game.
To start one, go to the event location, interact with the Announcement Board, and pick up the quest. It tells you which item to craft — so make sure you've already gathered the materials and learned the lower-tier recipes before you travel.
Locations
Events spawn at four locations, in the loot zone only, marked on the map when active (and on a multi-hour cooldown after completion):
- Economic castles in the loot zone — behind Aquitania, Audunstede and Skergard.
- Pilgrim's Rock, near the centre of the map — better rewards.
What they ask for
An event wants 4 to 40 of a single item, randomised from a long list spanning Tailoring & Leatherworking, Armoursmithing, Weapon Forging and Engineering — the highest crafting level required is 49. Most crafters carry materials and craft on the spot, so bring inventory space. Every current possibility:

What to keep stocked
To be ready for any event, carry a healthy supply of cheap, non-perishable staples — you won't need them all at once, but any of them might come up:
- Wood — Logs, Poles, Planks, Handles (Oak works for everything except the Wooden Shield, which needs Pine planks), plus Wood Billets, Charcoal, Coal.
- Metal — Steel Bars, Steel Rivets, Iron Lumps, Short Nails, Siderite.
- Cloth & leather — Flax Threads, Flax Twine, Flax Canvas, Decatized Flax Canvas, Leather Strap, Thin/Tanned/Thick Tanned Leather.
