See Crafting Tools for details.

Usage

  • In alchemy, it is the primary tool for certain recipes (currently only external remedies). It is used by CRUSHing an herb in a mortar with the pestle.
  • In alchemy, certain herbs must be crushed before they can be used in recipes. Currently this applies to all internal herbs. This is done by CRUSHing the herb in a mortar with the pestle.

Creation and Repair

Pestles can be created using forging techniques that fall under the Blacksmithing discipline.

Likewise, their repair falls under the same skills, with standard processes for metal tool repair.

Templates

Pestles use material hardness to derive their effectiveness.
(Low carbon steel was used for the durability cap, and high carbon steel was used for speed cap.)
